times, we must expect Thersltes, the
brawling demagogue, as we'll as Nes-
tor Odysseus and Neoptolemmus, wis.,
in counsel or brilliant in debate. A
public body would not be complete
without them. The important thing
is not that they shall be separated,
but that they shall be. kept together.
In the long run we may be sure which
of them will be dominant. 1t would
be absurd, therefore, to characterize
representative government as failure
because the ablest men, accidentally
considered, are not always chosen by
a community to represent it. Those
who make such criticisms have rather
in mind an aristocracy or an oligar-
chy, neither of which must be con-
founded with democracy. They over
look the fact, also, that the man who
is accidentally the ablest may be pO-
litically and personally the weakest"

author of the commission bill that
can legislatures and is thoroughly
identified with the demand for just
regulation and equitable taxation of
the railroads and other corporations.
This demand has been made by the
state conventions of both political par
ties in response to the evident desire
of a large majority of the people of
the state. The popular will has twice
been thwarted through a combination
Of the Grosscup-S Stevenson railroad
lobby with the machine backing a
wealthy candidate for the United
States senate. Although this combi-
nation has so far been triumphant the
signs are multiplying that the peo-
and that party lines will be disregard
ed in the determination of an outraged
people to administer a deserved re-
buke to the promise breakers whose
perfdy and dishonor brought about
the defeat Of the commission bill.
The lobby has such a hold on the re-
publican party machine in this state
that it would not be surprising if that
staunch champion of the peoples
cause, Governor Henry Mcbride, should
be defeated for nomination by his par
ty convention next year. In that con-
tingency the only hope of the people
will be in the democratic party and
in no way could that party more
emphatica prove it's devotion to the
cause of right and justice than by the
nomination for governor of that I'M
advocate of railway commits
sion, Senator Tolman of Spokane.
There is good reason for believing
that the reputation of the commits
sion plank of the last state platform
by the republican convention next
year and the turning down of Nc
Bride, will provoke revolt in the re-
publican ranks and thus enable Toll
man to overcome the twenty-five
thousand republican majority in this
state as easily as the fifteen thou
sand republican majority was dissipa-
ted by Governor Rogers in the cam
paign of 1900.
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1903-11-27

is apt to be propagated that the office
makes the man and that birth and
worth must necessarily go together
Now, monarchy and aristocracy graV-
itate naturally towards one another
and in England the alliance between
them is particularly close. The con-
sequence is that the peerage and its
Off shoots form sort of governing
class to whom public office is almost
birthright SO that they set the tone
not only of social but Of official Eng
land. In every British ministry, there
fore, a wholly disproportionate num-
Der of places is reserved for the aris-
tocracy; not because they are the best
men for the offices they fill, but be-
cause they were born in the purple
court, these administrators are pecu-
liarly susceptible to the royal purple
and how that example has affected the
ministers who are now in charge OF
British affairs may be inferred from
the appalling report of the commits
sion of inquiry into the conduct of the
Boer war. Not only so, but the whole
system of honOrS of which the mon
archy is the source, sets efficiency al
defiance. Considering the methods by
which titles are sought and conferred
one is forced to the conclusion that
the system of precedence and honors
in England is nothing but a grotesque
sham. Anglo-American says:
Il feel sure that if one could follow
the workings of the caste system into
their uttermost details, one would find
that the hopelessness and servility
bred by it are responsible for perhaps
half the commercial inefficiency and
unprogressiveness of England 1t
makes for stagnation, just as GER
tainly as it makes for that class ran
cor which gives to English trade
unionism it's peculiarly bitter strength.
At one point in the social scale, you
may find it's fruits in the worship of
eXternals and appearances, in an over
valuation of the purely decorative,
non productive elements of life. At
another, it will be depressing and cir
cumscribing the ability of the vulgar
in favor of genteel incompetence; at
a third, you will see it spouting in
geysers of f1unkeyism. Between King
Edward VII. on his royal throne and
the London floor walker who makes
you SILVER with the abjectness of his
bOWings and scrapings, the connection
of cause and effect may not at first
be apparent. 1t is there, disastrOusly
there, all the same; and the caste
spirit is the link. When the monarchy
sets the example of governing, re-
Warding, behaving, with a single eye
to merit, there is no room and no
temptation on the lower strata for
Shiny servility. When the royal in
1uence, however, tends palpably in
the other direction, it will breed fun
keys as the New Jersey marshes breed
mosquitoes
