BY the decisive vote of 46 TO 4, the
senate passed the bill for the appoint
ment Of commissioners to an inter-
national money conference. Fettigrew
was one of the four to vote against the
measure. He opposed the dill because
he believed the United States should act
alone and there was no hope of England
agreeing to a 16 to ratio.

Say, but isn't 1t fun TO read the COM
ments of the Republican newspapers Of
this state upon the selection OF John
Sherman for secretary Of state? 1t is
not so very long ago-a twelfth-month,
perhaps-thnt every Republican sheet in
the state with but very few exceptions
was playing battledoor and shuttle-cock
with Cleveland and Sherman, and it was
a difficult job TO tell which OF the two
got it in the neck the worse.

"Ths Republicans are juoilant and the

ms RepuOllcanS are lubliant and the
Pops are c0rrespondingly dismayed,'
was the lofty comment of j. Tomlinson
Jr. upon the passage of the Palmer rail-
road bill. Isn't that enough to make d
dog sickS Finding that it was impos
sible to defeat the measure. the Republi-
cans piled on the band wagon to man.
Had not the fusion forces been in the
majority there would have been qlite a
different story. This same measure in
a slightly different form has been before
the people Of this state for four years,
but always to be mercilessly slaughtered
by the Republican legislatures. The
Wheeler bill-now called the Palwer
bill-was introduced in the senate two
wears ago by Senator Foote Of this coun-
ty at the same time it was introduced in
the house by Representative Wheeler.
The bill only received something like
TWENTY-FIVE votes in the house and that
was the end OF it-ard Of Senator Foote
with the Republican ring. For his
efforts in this direction. together for his
actions as chairman of the committee
on appropriations in heading off grabs
at the treasury, Senator Foote became IL
marked man. The GRAPHIC knew it at
the time-for it got its information
straight-and Mr.. Foote felt it--and
knew it decisively when the state con
ventiOn met. 1t must make the few Re-
publicans who have in the last two state
assemblies made earnest but Intellectual
efforts toward better railroad legislation
take off their hats in recognition of the
purest gall extant: "The Republicans
are jubilant and the Pops are cores
pondingly dismayed."
