Better Have "Writ."

A meeting of the Kentucky legi9-
lature invariably proves to be an
interesting assembly. Here the
silvertongued orator, representing
a landed Blue Grass aristocracy,
meets the rough, unschooled
though wary giant from the
mountain districts. 1t was during
tho last session that one of the
former class had just finished a
highly polished and cultured
address in support Of soma local
measure, when a representative
from the hills, upon whom the
ilowery appeal had fallen like
water upon a ducks back, arose
to his commanding height Of six
feet three, and catching the
speakers eye, exclaimed IN a
disgusted and sonorous tone:
"Mr. Speaker, all I've. got to
say is that the people what sent
that gentleman down here might
better have writ. "--Detroit Free

The Country Press.

During the campaigns OF 1896
and 1900, and the lesser cam
paigns since the former date, the
democratic party his found its
chief newspaper support smong
the loyal democratic newspapers
so often designated as "the
country press With a few
notable exceptions the metropoli-
tan newspapers classed as
democratic deserted the demo-
cratic standard and lent their aid
to the republican party. But the
desertions from the ranks Of "the
country press' were so few that
they were not noticeable. With
loyalty that could not be
swerved and an ability that
challenged the admiration Of the
opposition, "the country press"
rallied to the democratic standard
and performed prodigies of
valor. "The country press" has
ever been loyal, and because
of this every democratic news
paper that is embraced in this
designation deserves and should
have the hearty support OF
democrats in its community. A
woll edited local newspaper
exercises an important influence,
not aways visible to the casual
observer, but always apparent
when the test comes. Hundreds
of such democratic weeklies and
small dailies reach The Com
moner's exchange table regularly,
and they are a constant source
of inspiration. Let democrats
show by their actions that they
appreciate the answering
loyalty and tireless energy Of the
democratic newspapers that have
stood up for the party and its
principles in the face Of influences
that have corrupted SO many
metropolitan dailies. The local
democratic newspapers deserve a
great deal more than they usually
get. Now let democrats see that
their local organs get all they
deserve. .-Commoner,

WASHINGTON LETTER.

.
ington over the failure OF
Representative Taylor of Mich
igan to promote a contest OF the
election Of Representative Carter
Glass of the Sixth Virginia dis
trict. In connection with this
failure, there is considerable
junwritton history, The contest
was intended to involve the
constitutions Of all those states
which have adopted laws which
virtually exclude the negro vote.
Mr.. Taylor, who has to rely
largely on the negro vote for his
support at home, saw an op-
portunity to further his own ends
and the cause of the Crumpacker
resolution and seized it. His
resolution was referred to Com
mittee on Elections No. / and
there met it's Waterloo, There
is a growing sentiment among
those northern republicans who
are not dependent on negro votes
for election to Congress, that
the Southern states had better
DO left to work out their own
salvation and the other members
of the Committee refused to
champion the cause of Mr.. Taylor.
The action is of national signifi-
canoe, for the reason that it is
forerunner of the defeat that
awaits any attempt of Judge
Crum packer to call up his
resolution. 1t is also known that
Rep3 sentative Cannon is hostile
to interference with southern
states. He has said that "the
republican party never attempted
to interfere with the southern
voting laws without going down
to defeat" and it is believed that
there is little likelihood Of
interference while he is Speaker.
With a singular unanimity the
democrats and republicans Of the
House are working on an anti
trust bill. Representative Rich
ardson Of Tennessee states that
the democrats will cheerfally
support any sensible antitrust
measure on the floor OF the
House, sinking party advantage
! in the cause Of the whole people.
Whether the republicans are
actually awakened to the1ooessity
of ti-trust legislation, or
whether they regard it as one of
two evils. the other of which is
tariff revision which the leaders
so strenuously oppose, or whether
there is merely ali unders landing
by which the House will pass
antitrust legislation and the
Senate bury the bill, the demo-
cratic leaders have not yet
determined but, whatever may be
the Intention Of the republicans,
the democrats will Go all in their
power to promote legislation so
essential to the welfare Of the
people,
AS might have been expected,
Senator Bevoridge, after his
territorial junket, reported
substitute for the Omnibus
territorial bill which provides for
the admission Of Oklahoma alone,
it being tacitly admitted that the
reason for refusing admission to
the other two applicants is not
their unpreparednoss but the fear
that they may add democratic
strength in the Senate.
