They Refuse To Learn.


It is evident that some lessons are hard
to learn. Overwhelming as the defeat of
the Democratic party was at the late cleo
tion. 1t appears that it was not enough to
impress some members of tho party with
its meaning. If the election meant any
thing it was that the people of the country
were determined to punish the Democratic
party because 1t had not done what it was
put In power to do. The party failed
simply because it was hampered through
by the Inability of the United States senate
to act. The people punished the party be-
cause it had disappointed them. 1t dis
appointed them because few Of its MEM
bers in the senate were able to keep the
party from doing what it wanted to do
and what was expected of 1t by the people.
! Yet, in view of all that, no sooner does
the senate meet again than its majority de-
cides to continue in the old way. The
