A pair that is without precedent in
the memory of this generation of leg
islators was made on the vote for the
Porto Rican bill in the senate. 1t
is venerable joke that a constituent
once wrote to his member of congress
that he was grieved to observe by the
Record that he had been pairing with
some one of the opposite party. If
you must pair wrote the constituent,
'' and l suppose you canrot always
be present TO vote. can't you do it with
some good man in cur own party?"

issue. Republicans generally voted fer
and Democrats against the bill. Hoar

voted for the bill. Each was paired

The school children of Canada who
were going to send Aguinaldo a mes
sage of sympathy now find themselves
up against a hard problem. They

likely that he will provide them with
the necessary Information While he
doubtless would have no objection to
being found by a message of sympathy
he does not care to be fount by Amer

his whereabouts 1t is quite likely that
the latter would be the first on the

The membership OF one of the COL

Joneses all stuck together. The tenn

control of a board of eight trustees.
all of whom were Joneses. At the an

election of trustees the Jones slate
threatened to cause a division in the

Students of municipal government
had expected much of the proposed
joint investigation of the municipal
and private electric light industries
which was to be undertaken by the
League of American Municipalities
and the National Electric Light asso-
citation. The league is. however, back
ward in doing its share of the work
and the private interests intimate it
is because the advocates of the munic-
ipal ownership are afraid of the re
suit. The facts as stated by the West
ern Electrician, are that according to
the agreement made at Syracuse last
September each was to pay one-halr
of the cost Of the Investigation. The
league stipulated that its acceptance
of the offer should be conditional upon
Its raising its half OF the necessary
funds by special donation. The cleo
trio light association has $500 ready,
being its share Of The money but the
Western Electrician says the league
has made no serious effort to raise its
proportion of the necessary amount.
