While the matter is fresh In the
minds OF the Legislators, we suggest
that law be passed providing that the
people may have chance 10 express
on their ballots their preference for
Senator. OF course, this would amount
to nothing in law, but it would, never
theless, become the unwritten law OF
the state. No Legislature would dare
go against the expressed will OF the
people in electing a Senator. 1t would,
too, make the successful man more
proud of his Office and would draw him
close to the people. Then vast ex-
pense would be saved to the state, for
Senator would be elected on the first
or second day of balioting. Salt Lake

Sentiment against railroad passes in
Wisconsin has grown so strong that it
is said most of the members of the leg
islature have declined the passes ten
dered them by the railways. One of
the first bills introduced in the legisla
ture was bill prohibiting the use of
passes from the governor down to town
supervisors, and there seems to be a
likelihood that it will become law For
years the Badger legislators have had
the pass business down fine, and a ses-
sion of the legislature has simply meant
that not only has the member and his
family been we'll supplied with free
transportation, but large number of
his constituents have also been given
free rides to the state capital.

II seems from Gov Linds message that
he has gone the legislatures way, the
way of the people, and adopted much
more conservative tone than he assumed
during the campaign. At that time he
argued that the affairs of state were In
a bad way extravaganza abounded, and
the institutions of the state were on
their way to his satanic majesty. But
in his message he took different view
of the situation. He thought the af-
fairs of state were in fairly good shape,
the institutions were we'll managed;
and said that ways and means must be
divised to raise more money to meet
growing needs, as expenses could not
be cut down. The legislature will do
best to follow good business sense.

nority members of the house who favor
taking bold stand in the matter, fight
ing against the use of any public money
for such purposes. They think it
would be good political move, besides
being right, but they have no hope of
success, and they may weaken. There
is no doubt whatever, that majority
of the members in their private capacity
see their duty, but not many of them
will be in position to say after the close
of the session in the immortal, though
ungrammatical words of the lamented
General jeremiah Rusk: I seen my
duty and 1 done it,"
1t is all very we'll to talk that they
cannot afford to incur the i'll will of the

the ill will of the taxpa ers, whose
money they illegal vote away in such
an appropriation.

A BUGABOO

If Senator Hoar's view regarding the
posi- ton of this country towards the
Philippines is sound, then Abraham
Lincoln and his associates gave the con-
stitution most terrible strain when
they compelled the southern states to
re main in the union against their con
sent. Doubtless the senator would
hardly want to go on record, as taking
such a view of the situation during the
rebellion, but it differed little from
theu situation that now confronts the
nation in the Philippines, only in that
it was a more decided case of not want
ing to be governed by the United States.
In the Philippines, there are said to be
a large class of the more intelligent ma
tives who desire annexation to this
country, because they recognize the ad-
Vantages that will accrue from stable
government, and they have no faith
that the followers of Aguinaldo will be
able to maintain such. If the state
ment of President Magill, of Swartzmore
College, to the effect that the admins
tration will not annex the Philippines
but establish protectOrate over them,
and of Senator Foraker, in the senate,
that our occupation of those islands will
be only of temporary nature, until
such time as stable government can
be formed and maintained, then those
who are making their grand stand play
against annexation are having their
trouble for their pains. The fact is
they have built largely on their imagi-
nations as to what this country will do
in governing those islands They have
assumed from the first and without the
least reason, that it would be despotic
form of government established there
in which the natives would have little
or no say. They have ignored from the
first the intimations thrown out by
those close to the president that in the
establishment of government that
the natives would be called upon to the
largest extent possible, and as far as
possible home rule will be given. For
time necessarily, while order is being
restored a military government must
be maintained, but when the time ar
rives that it can be cast one side, there
is not the least doubt but that it will be
done Imperialism is simply bug-a-
boo the anti-expansionists have raised

THE LtG STATURE.

The matter of freight rates from this
part of the state seem likely to get a
shaking up in the legislature this ses-
sion. The other day Senator Miller in
troduced the following resolution in
the senate:
Resolved That the railroad and
warehouse commission be requested to
furnish for the information of the sen
ate the freight rates to Minneapolis on
grain and coal now in force frOn Luz

Speaking of the anti-pass movement
in Wisconsin, and the movement fol
stringent legislation before the legisla-
ture. of that state, the Minneapolis
Times says:
'.Here in Minnesota, mores the pity,
there has been no hint of Legislation
against this sort of wholesale bribery
There is time yet for some honest legis
lator to make himself famous and give
himself a fair start on a brilliant poll
tical career by introducing in the Min
nesota legislature and championing with
all his might an anti-pass bill He could
at least compel the pass takers to put
themselves on record and hasten final
action by the people upon an issue that
is sure to be fought out here in Mime
sofa as it is now being fought out in
Wisconsin,. 1HEf U2f

for effect.

The legislative reporter of the Min
neapOlis Times says that the minority
members of the legislature were talking
day or two ago of bringing up the
subject of the we'll known steal of pub
lie money at the close Of the session as
a present(O to the newspaper reporters.
1t is to be hoped they will. 1t is sub
ject the majority members could bring
up with profit and sit down upon it very
hard In short it is steal that ought
to be stopped. The Times reporter
seems to doubt that it will be, however,
and adds that this legislature seems
disposed to be particularly good to the
knights of the quill, and speaks of the
many boys who have places as commit
tee clerks, etc. There is no particular
objection in the Legislature being kind
ly disposed toward the newspaper boys,
but that is no earthly reason why it
should vote them money belonging to
the taxpayers, for services that have
not been rendered to the state. The
Times reporter continuing says that in
interviews with members they sHall
admit that it is swindle. Some, like
Representative Foss declare that they
will make all possible effort to defeat
the steal. Foss has voted against it
in the former sessions in which he has
been member. Another representa-
tive, who admits that 1t is indefensible
is certain that nothing Gamble done to
remedy the wrong. He says it is a
bride, but that the members cannot af-
ford to incnr the ill will of the news
papers who might revenge themselves
by holding the weak brethren up to
public ridicule. .4aap-a So.

FAST RAILROADlNG.

The year 1899 is introducing some
great speed in railroading called out by
the desire of the postal authorities to
expedite mail communication between
the two oceans, and during the past
few DAYS steam and steel has been max
ing a great race across the continent
against time. Lewis L. Gray, superin-
tendent Of the sixth division of the rail-
way mail service, explains the matter
thus:
The transcontinental mail service
inaugurated with the new year Is the
fastest regular schedule across the con-
tinent, or. for the distance run, the
fastest in the world The service ex-
pedites the mail from New England
and New York to the Pacific coast from
from ten to eighteen hours. 1t is not
competitive race for contracts nor for
additional compens ton, The railway
mail service made up the schedules and
the IA lroads accepted them on present
contracts"
While the trial that is on is not so
much a matter of competition between
different roads for some great stake as
it is to reduce time between the two
coast lines, still the records made by
the various roads is very likely to be
closely scrutinized when new contracts
for carrying the mail are made. AS to
the time made by these trains, the Sioux
City Journal says;
Under the new schedules thirty-two
trains are making unparalleled speed
between the coasts. The time between
New York and Chicago is cut to "a
hours and Is minutes, between Chicago
and Omaha the schedule calls for ten
hours, and from Omaha to San Fran
cisco 36 hOurs-a total of 70 hours and
10 minutes, or less than three days, from
coast to coast Fast trains also run to
the northwest coast.
"A feature of the new service which
will command general approval is that
the standing start of several hours at
Chicago, which practically broke the
back of the fast mail system, is wiped
out. The new service is fast mail in
deed, whose benefits will be felt by all
portions of the country.
The railroads east and west have
proved themselves equal TO the demands
of the new schedules. The time made,
especially on the western roads, indi-
Gates that they have made great ad-
vances in the construction of roadhed,
in locomotives and rolling stock and in
train operation since the day not so
long gone that the American humorist
suggested putting the cOwcatcher in
the rear Ito prevent cattle from an
nOying the passengers. The American
roadbeds are as solid as adamant and
the machinery, of the best, as is shown
by the fast time that has been made
away out west between the two great
rivers, where mile has been covered
in the remarkable time of 81 seconds.
The effect of the new mail schedules
will be to quicken railroad speed and
improve the service on all lines. The
connections of the fast lines will assure
such desirable contamination. The
American railroads will on the average
soon be the fastest as they are already
the longest, the safest and most COM
