L. ,-,r,a7ia+e than conclusive: Under existing
,,o,sr,csl and constitutional conditions there IS
no radical cure working remedy. Ihe I"ll-
aam4ntal principle OF cur constitutional ac-
+ion is that the executive the legislative
and the judiciary shall be separate. each
acting independently and in its own sphere
Tn Great Britain exactly the opposite theory ana
practlce prevail While a judge cannot sl1 III
the House Of Commons. the judiciary is to
certain extent "a portion Of the House OF LoFos,
The executive is Of the Ho Ise Of Commons aho
the British Empire is governed by JOINT par
uamentary legislative committee With US VINO
ever heard Of an Attorney General either OF the
State OF Of the nation, being member OF It's
popular legislative body? In Great Britain ne
e1Travs is Whether on the whole good or other
wise, the result of our constitutional system IS
obvious. and can to-day be proftably studied in
the composition and relative influence Of Massa-
chusetts in the House Of Representatives. The
delegation has been and is regularly. peTiodi-
caIly and Systematically weeded Of men Of
marked ability and Independent cast OF mind
Where. under our party and district system
such are not excluded from al public life. they
s-e promoted to the Senate the Judiciary and
the executive. In this respect no remedy Is
possible, except in an entire change Of political
methods and constitutional provisions That,
OF course, is out Of the question. Save an
academic question, no one would even agitate 1t.
In SO far, the result IS. and must be. accepted.
AS question Of practical politics, therefore,
rotation alone is within reach. In fairness also.
II must be said that the other elements OF weak
ness have always existed. and are merely in
creasing with the growth Of the country. In
proportion. they are no more operative now
than they were seventy years ago, when they
took Webster, Clay and Calhoun out of the
House and put them IN Senate or Cabinet. Not
disposition to establish an unwritten law Of
Congressional change, in Massachusetts, at least,
Is perceptibly gaining ground It keeps steady
pace with the enlargement OF the constituencies,
and the increasing number OF well to do citizens
ambitious TO write, at some time in their lives,
IN. c. after their names. II is thus the great
est future menace as well as the greatest pres
ent drawback, to Congressional influence here,
as, by the way, it VIGOROUSLY is in the case Of
New-York City; and this. TOO. though. alone Of
the weak points in system. it admits Of
practical control and a complete remedy.
So the case stands to-day, elimination, pro-
motion rotation. all combine in the process OF
depletion. That in the result the House of
Representatives retains any influence at all is
the true cause Of surprise not that its influence
grows less as that Of the Senate and the Cab
are continually replenished- They absorb its
ability; rotation robs it OF experience.
