tie sense of honor in politics is shown
by his determination to make his party
attack civil service reform, though
pledged to the people by it's st. Louis
platform to support it, as forcibly as is
his hunger for political spoils.
If the bill becomes law Grosvenor
will have enough to do to save himself
from defeat in the congressional cleo
tion this fall, and will probably be
driven to let President Mckinley, Sen
ator Hanna and the Republican spoils-
men take care of themselves.
The Finck bill is not gerrymander
however, in any sense of the word. Ex-
cepting the Eleventh district, the bill
is not intended to change the political
complexion of any of them; and con-
sidering the object attained In that
case one can almost excuse 1t, even II
he don't believe 1t is exactly right.
The changes in the areas of the dis
tricts seem to be made with a view
to having more compact and symmet-
rical districts. The "shoe-string" and
"doughnut" style OF district is q GER
tain symptom Of the gerrymander, and
anything that elimipates such distort-
ed districts from the map smacks of
reform to that extent at least From
surface indications the redistrictor will
be supported by the Democrats and
Hanna Republicans. If SO, 1t will
become a law; for not all the anti
Hanna Republicans had the courage to
vote against him in the senatorial con-
test.
