CHANGES IN THE SENATE.

Tuesdays elections, though sweeping in CHAR
acter will effect material change IN the po-
litical complexion of the United States Senate
That body is already so strongly Repuoncan
that, outside the "Solid South" few seats re-
main 10 be captured. In the Senate to-day there
are 81 Republicans and So Democrats. or the
thirty vacancies occurring on March next five
have been already filed by the legislatures OF
MARYLAND. Mississippi, Ohio, Vermont and Vir-
GINA In Maryland Democrat, Isidor Rayner,
was chosen last winter to succeed Louis E. Nc
Comas Republican. In Virginia and Mississippi
two Democratic Senators. Messrs. Daniel and
Money, were elected to succeed themselves
Vermont has reelected Redfield Proctor, and
Ohio has chosen Charles Dick TO replace Marcus
A Hanna.
In the twenty-five States which are still to
elect few party gains and losses will be re-
corded. The Republicans have apparently capt
ured the legislatures in Montana and Missouri
insuring the retirement of Paris Gibson and
Francis NJ. Cockrell. In Nevada the legislature
if Republican, will elect a successor to William
NJ. Stewart, for time Silver Republican and
Populist. but since 1900 a straightout Republi-
can. In the other twenty-five States nineteen
Republicans will be succeeded by Republicans
and three Democrats by Democrats The Sen
ate after March next will therefore probably
contain IS Republicans and 80 Democrats.
some changes OF consequence IN the perSonnel
Of the body will, however follow Tuesdays
elections. In Connecticut Joseph r. Hawley,

of physical breakdown. The fight for the sue
cession will be vigorous one. In Massachu-
setts, NewYork and New-Jersey Senators Henry

ATTENDANCE AT THE FAIR.

In the opinion of those who have visited the
Purchase Exposition Is in many respects the
greatest ever held. In the matter OF at
tendance however, it has fallen far below the
Columbian Exposition of 1893. From April 30
to October so the total attendance at the St
Louis fair was 1898 290 while from May l to
October 80 the attendance at the Chicago fair
was 27039521. This great difference in the
number of visitors may be due to a number of
causes, but the chief ones probably are the more
favorable climatic conditions at Chicago, the
greater advertising that fair received, the greater
population within a radius of one hundred miles
and the fact that expOsitions were then a new
thing to the Mississippi Valley and the great
West, which naturally furnished the majority
of the visitors. The fact, ALSO that the st. Louis
fair was contempOraneous with Presidential
campaign may have had its influence, especially
in decreasing the attendance in September and
October, the months best for sightseeing and
travelling.
Still, it must be admitted that the frequency
Of worlds fairs has worn off the keen edge Of
public curiosity-and this is probably the great
est of the causes which have conduced to a
lessened attendance That Notwithstanding all
the facts that made against It, the fair has re-
paid practically all Of the big loan made to it bv
the government is greatly to the credit of the
management. 1t is TO be hoped the closing DAYS
may largely increase the attendance for it is
not probable that such wonderful exhibit of
the worlds progress will soon again omen ifs
gates to the public.

g1ise 1t is good thing for the whole world
that America has decided to have four more
years of the administration OF the man who
rendered grand and decisive services to the
cause of international arbitration" and who
'had the courage, generosity and foresight to
save the court at The Hague" For that last
named act alone we have been told, the Presi-
dent is entitled to the thanks Of all Europe"
With what anticipation Of further good then.
may Europe and the world not regard the pro-
Tonga ton of his Presidency? Because of Tues
DAYS electoral result" said devout philan-
thropist yesterday, ''the reign Of universal peace
"has been brought measurably nearer to the
world" That estimate was not extravagant
1t will be repeated and confirmed by thoughtful
men in every land when they consider the influ-
ence of great nation armed, not for wanton
conquest, but for the defence Of justice and for
the maintenance of peace. Americans do care
something for abroad" and for that very rea-
son. among innumerable others, they rejoice In
Tuesdays work. Because Of that work they
can look upon the rest of the world with more
confidence and self-respect and can be more
sure OF seeing those feelings reflected in the
aspect of the world toward themselves.

MR. CORTEIYOr
nOrity.

The modest chairman Of the Republican Ma
tional Committee has not given out for pub-
Hca1on The message Of congratulation and
thanks which came to him from the White
House. but it is not necessary to see if TO feel
sure that it was as cordial and affectianate as
1t was deserved. He has received MANY other
enthusiastic concentrations of his work. and
he has earned them all.
The original selection Of Mr.. Cortelyou to be
chairman Of the national committee was on all
sides at first regarded as a piece Of fdealism
rather than practical politics To both Demo-
Gratis and Republicans it meant that President
RooseVeltS campaign was TO be conducted on
high plane, and the hack politicians on both
sides speculated on the possibility of mapaqipr
campaign on that basis Democratic news
papers commended the choice as q step in ad-
vance, and it was only act of desperation
when legitimate issues had failed that Judge
Parker and his organs attacked the personal
honor OF Mr.. CortelyOu without the slightest
evidence to warrant their accusation. All per-
sons who are familiar with Republican cam
paigns are perfectly aware that these accusa-
lions were outrageous libels, and when, on the
eve Of election, Judge Parker desperately tried
TO scrape together some stories of alleged
extortion TO justify his speeches, he made q
pitiful failure, and had to take refuge in
the pretence that he had not reflected on the
Honoi VI VIC iicaiuehI ana the chairman. A
few days before Judge Parker had declared
through his secretary that his charges were
true, that he was the complainant and the
people were the judges. After his failure on
demand TO produce the slightest evidence the
judges gave verdict which was unmstakable;
and 1T was not n Scotch verdict of mot
proven" either, but positive declaration of
faith in the uprightness of man who had
served three Presidents faithfully and through
his whole career impressed all men with his
straightforward honesty
That Is what impressed everybody who came
in contact with him in the campaign. He was

last degree Dut above all, transparently hon

FFFFOTS ABROAD.

.sWhst do we care for abroad" was the cynl-
al sneer once made in reply to an admonllon
concerning the worlds opinion OF America. 1t
&c no longer made, and it never should have
been made, by thoughtful statesmen or by sell
respectine citizens Never before was America SO
strong as now 10 stand, If need should be- against
an adverse world. For that very reason it is
now more than ever before incumbent upon
America to merit the good opinion Of the world
and 10 maintain with all countries relations of
arnicabIe self-respect. That it should do so in
those earlier days was urged upon it by wash
ingteu and Jefferson, and the counsel has peen
continuous and continuously increasing ever
since their day. AS the nation grows in strength
st should not decline, but rather grow, in cour-
tesy and In an instructive spirit Of justice and
In love Of peace and good will. Because, then,
of certain decent respect to the opinions of
mankind" it is fitting to take into considera-
ton the effect Of Tuesdays election upon the
foreign relations Of America, and indeed upon
the interests Of the world beyond our borders.
There can be little doubt that the simple fact
Of assured continuity and consistency in our
policies strengthens the position Of America in
the eyes Of the world. 1t has been the reproach
Of republics that frequent changes Of govern
meut cause fckleness Of policy. But for nearly
eight years our policy has been constant and
the world is now assured that it will remain so
for at least four years more. That alone means
much But greater still is the meaning of that
policy In itself 1t has been, and thus is 10 be,
a policy Of fair dealing and impartial justice
toward all nations and OF disinterestedness in
dealing with international affairs. The effec-
tive stand for the 'open door in China and the
suppression OF the Boxer revolt by interven-
ton without spoliaton were two of many Incl
dents Of our last eight years diplomacy which
at once revealed the strength of this country
and at the same time also treasured the world
as TO the benefcence with which it was inclined
TO use that strength. Moreover, it has been and
doubtless is TO be policy of doing things" an
other fact which appeals fayorably TO the
world. The policy that ended century of mis-
government in Cuba, that rescued the be-
leaguered legations AT Picking, that breathed life
into dry bones at The Hague and that is at
this moment fulfilling the worlds desire of ages
at Panama is policy that the nations will re-
gard with confidence with gratitude and with
respect.
Nor is the strengthening Of America before the
world and I'm the worlds esteem the only effect
of President ROosevet's reelection We NAV
well believe that the general welfare of the
world at large is materially advanced. 1t is q
good thing for South America and for Europe
that this administration has so applied the Mon
roe Doctrine as TO convince the that II is not
a screen for evil doings and the other that IT
permits no oppression spollation under any

A BOOZE LAID.

Many Democratic campaign orators and news
papers were so mentally unbalanced or so ut
terly insncere as to declare that the election
Of President Roosevelt would signify the be-
ginning Of the end of republican Institutions
the insidlous approach of the empire. In the
first moment Of personal triumph unparalleled
in American history the President announced
to his countrymen that under no circumstances
would he be a candidate for accept another
nomination.
No American citizen who had not for the time
being become politically insane has ever hon
estly believed that Theodore Roosevelt was
capable of consenting to betrayal of the law
and the Constitution in any particular, for any
purpose and least of all. in the service OF a
personal ambition. Nor are those who know
him in the least surprised that he should seize
the first suitable opportunity to manifest
scrupulous regard for the substance or the
wholesome tradition which forbids thru
term In the Presidential office Moreover, ny
those who know him. we do not mean merely
his official associates and personal friends but
the American people in general between Whom
and himself there exists, as the election mas
overwhelmingly demonstrated, mutual under
standing rarely if ever before attained in equal
measure.

DAN THIS BE TRUEY

1.-THE New-York American" yesterday morn
ing published what purported to De state
ment by Judge Parker given out at Esopus at
10 o. m on election night. We have no reason
to question the accuracy of the dispatch con-
tanning It, but the statement is in spirit so
much at variance with Judge Parker's dispatch
to Mr.. Roosevelt, 1.-THE people. by their votes,
'have emphatically approved your admlnistra-
''tion, and congratulate you," that it seems as
if some mistake had been made, or at least
some incautious private outburst Of disappoint-
ment had found its way into print Judge Par
ker is quoted as having said of the election:
at demonstrates that you cannot beat the
trusts. You cannot beat the Republican party
''by making war upon the trusts. The trust
money bought the floating vote and caused the
result"
If Judge Parker really said this he did not
sincerely mean what he said to the President
If the election was bought, the verdict was not
the vote Of the people In view of the tremen-
dous pluralities all over the country the idea OF
a purchased vote is too preposterous to be cred
tied, even to q defeated candidate who. like
the losing party in a law suit, always has the
privilege Of swearing at the court. This state
ment would square well enough with the
Judges desperate efforts at the end of the cam
paign to represent the President as an extor-
toner trying to buy an election with money
wrung from the trusts, and his subsequent eva
sion of the issue, but it does not fit his usually
moderate and judicial disposition. Judge Par
6er started out to be the candidate or the
trusts He was nominated for that purpose,
and though he at the last frantically sought
other support it was the plain people from
Maine to California. from Minnesota even to
the Arkansas border who gave Mr.. Roosevelt
the victory. Judge Parker knows this, and he
could say nothing more discreditable to his
honesty and intelligence than this statement
Can IL be that he made it?
