Of the thirty Senators whose terms ex-
pire in March 1899, fifteen are Demo-
Gratis, eleven are Republicans, three are
Silver Republicans, and one, William
Vincent Allen, is Populist. OF the
hold-over Senators-those whose terms
expire on March 3, 1901, and those
whose terms expire on March 3, 1903
thrty-four are Republicans, nineteen
are Democrats, and seven are Populists
or Silverites.
1t will be observed, therefore, that the
Democrats and Populists are much more
affected by the expiration OF terms in
March next than are the Republicans.
The Republicans have a clear majority
among the hold-oveis The expiration
of so many Democratic terms is easily
understood when it is remembered that
this group of Senators was chosen after
the Presidential election of 1892, and
represented, therefore, the sweeping
Democratic victory of that year.
The conclusion is that with one Demo.
cratic seat lost in Maryland, another in
Wisconsin, and four other Democratic
seats in New York, New Jersey, West
Virginia, and California, the control of
the 56th Senate is assured by good ma.
jority. daily Republican.

away in ideness or useless squabbling;
or, worst of all. more bad statutes can
become operative than years OF subse-
quent Legislatures may correct. 1t is for
the members of this coming session to
decide which it shall be.
Outside of the fact that each legislator
has voluntarily assumed an imperative
public duty which he is bound in honor
to execute; each individual member has
a personal interest in the action of the
body of which he is a part In every
community in tins State there are men
today who have never been able to live
down the unenviable reputation of hav-
ing in the past been member of this or
that Legislature. The man who has
been a member of an incompetent
General Assembly is, in many cases,
marked for life. From purely selfish
point of view, therefore, every legislator
has keen interest in making this ap-
preaching session credit and not a
shame to our State. No member can
shield himself behind his fellows, or
find a safe hiding place in numbers
Each individual OF that body has clear
duty. If he will do his best openly and
manfully, then his skirts are clear
Otherwise, he must share the odium
with the rest. There is no escaping it.
There will be many to persuade the
members otherwise. The first to meet
him on his arrival at the Capital will be
the politician. He will tell him that his
one all important duty is to build up his
party; and that the way to do this is to
pass all kinds of rotten partisan egisla-
tion, and to give the best offices and
plums to tho "bosses and the boys" If
he listens to these politicians, he is GER
tainly lost. He will prove but another
victim offered up on the unholy altar OF
blind partisanship.
Next will come the professional lobby
ist, that seedy, out-of-elbows Undivided
who can't make an honest livelihood by
the sweat of his brow or the fruit of his
brain. His game will be fattery, mixed
with a little dash of politics as well. His
first move for business will be to malign
every honest citizen who he fears is on
to his game.
The legislator who listens to him and
lends him aid and comfort is like wise lost.
There is no escaping it. But the legisla-
tor who acts during the sessions as he
acts in his own business, and listens
only to the advisors whom he would con.
suit in private liIe-he is safe. e.-Dorer

VOTE OF THE HOUSE

Special Dispatch to the Intelligencer.
I, wAsHINGToN.tD. c., April 29.--It is
claimed that tho war revenue bill. pass
ed to-day by the house, will also pass,
the senate by q good majority. There
was distinction among the representa-
tlves largely upon the bond clause.
which was practically q party line up.
Those who did not object to the issue OF
bonds, altogether. were stlcklers as to
the use of the word coin, and what are
clnssed us some very, absurd amend-
ments were proposed and voted down.
The attitude of the strictly partisan
member was due. 1t is alleged, to his fear
that his constituents would call him to
account for any vote OF his In favor OF
bonds, and while he knew the bill would
pass, and really believed 1t was the only
way out, he eased his conscience by
voting "Agln" 1t. 1t is even believed
that had the votes been needed to enact
the measure. many OF the strictly par

displeasure Of their constituents and
voted for 1t. This has been true OF
many on most questions, where the MI
nority preferred to go on record, on war
measures. ~ =, r. = g. e ~ u ?.
When the bill reaches the senate It
will be put through the PAGES OF. debate,
and will pass by the aid OF votes from
such Democrats as are able to give an
explanation satisfactory to their own
constituencies, and who are willing even
to be misunderstood for time, when
voting to meet a crisis. 1t Is believed al
least ten senators ON the Democratic
side will favor the bill, as It comes from
the house, with possibly slight amend
ments. Among these. 1t Is said, are Sem
etors Faulkner and German, both OF
whom view the question as one of neces-
