Root Respects the Senate.

Many Washington dispatches have
agreed in asserting that Secretary
Root has plainly intimated his pur-
pose to avoid negotiating any treaty
with a foreign power unless he has
reason 10 believe that the senate will
ratify il. This implies that he will adj
wise with leading senators when any
important international bargain is I'M
der consideration, and that he will try
TO maintain cordial relations between
the state department and the legisla-
tive body which is invested with the
power of accepting or multiplying treat
les.
Both on grounds of expediency and
of regard for the constitution such a
policy deserves TO be commended. Mr..
Root is an able lawyer. well versed in
statutory principles. He understands
that it was the purpose of the founders
of this government TO make the senate
a check and a balance-wheel. especially
in our dealing with other nations. As
a public man with Il reputation for get
ting things done. he doubtless realizes
that more is likely to be accomplished.
so far as his own branch of the federal
mechanism is concerned. by co-opera-
ton with the senate rather than by at
tempts TO dictate TO il.
As a matter Of fact, there has been
altogether too much disposition mani
tested by numerous newspapers to
condemn the senate for its use of the
prerogatives which are entrusted TO it,
II is no more exempt from criticism
than any other part of the government.
Public sentiment may be rightfully
brought TO bear on it for the purpose
of influencing its action. But that does
not mean that the senate is bound le-
gally or morally. always TO follow the
lead of any administration. Its rights
may al times be injudiciously exercis
ed. Its rules permitting practically I'M
limited debate have been often abused.
Bur none of these things affects its
constitutional status. which no prudent
executive official will decline 10 recOg

left Your Honor thoroughly convinced
that Your Honor would not retry de-

such criticism and knowledge thereof
And defendant further alleges, that
he has i'm his newspaper made a jocular
reference to Your Honor I'm connection

Honor, defendant verify believes and
feels, and, therefore, alleges, that Your
Honor cannot give him a fair and i'm
