HARD WORDS FOR BURKE.
No Longer Gentleman Because He
Voted Against Hanna

Columbus, O., Jan. 19.-In the senate
today there was a sensational and
somewhat unexpected outcropping of
the bitterness engendered by the sena-
tOrial fight. When the standing COM
mittees were reported, Senator Alexan-
der presented a formal protest against
the placing of the name of Senator
Burke of CuyahOga county, the only
Republican member of the senate who
did not vote for Mr.. Hanna, on the
committee. In his protest Senator AL
eXander, among other things said:
Il hereby desire to record my earnest
protest against the placing of the name
of Vernon H. Burke upon committees
of this senate upon which honorable
gentlemen have been selected to serve.
To force by the majority votes of this
body the association of this betrayer of
party trusts with those whose honor
and sense of duty would shrink from
such conduct, is to offer a reward for
treason to party, to principle and to
American manhood.
Il protest against the violation of
party and of personal pledges and [
hereby declare it my duty to hold the
man who voluntarily places his pledges
before the people in securing their
votes as fully responsible to them as he
Is morally responsible to his maker, and
for these and for many other reasons
dear to American citizenship, 1 here
and now enter this protest against the
enforcing of this political traitor into
the presence or company Of honorable
men,
There was immediate objection by
the Democratic members to the lang
uage of the protest, but a motion to
eXpunge ObjectiOnal phrases was ruled
out Of order by the president on the
ground that the protest was made IN
der a constitutional right. Senator
Sullivan, (Rep) although differing from
Senator Burke on the senatorial cleo
ton said he regarded the protest as in
appropriate. After the protest had
been allowed to go on the record, Sen
atCr COlln. introduced and had passad
a resolution declaring that the senate
did not agree to sympathize with the
expressions of the protest Most of the
Republicans voted for the resolution.
