SENATOR KEARNss VOTE.
He Declares He Voted Nay on Bard Amend.
ment 10 the statehood Blll.

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.--Mr. kearns ~
Utah made the following statement to-day
in the Senate regarding his vote on the
Bard amendment 10 the Statehood bill
which led 10 the charge that he had traded
his vote
Il rive 10 a question Of personal pryi-
leRe. In the first vote on the amendmeu.
of the Senator from California Mr. Bard
last evening, | voted nay in a distinct
manner. It appears the clerks misunder-
stood me, and / was numbered among
those favoring the amendment My COLI
leagues called my attention to the error.

when it was suggested | could do 30 on
the vote to concur in the amendment before
the final passage Of the bill, in case the
amendment should be adopted. Tins

THE seriousness Of this matter did not
impress itself upon me until this morning
when | read in the public press the state
rnent that | had voted for the amendment

If this be the proper time Mr.. Presi-
dent | desire to have the record corrected
"a far as it relates TO my vote upon the
amendment of the Senator from California
in accordance with this statement"
Senators Nelson, Clark OF Wyoming.
Foraker, Calling ger. Hansbrough and Clay
said they distinctly heard Mr.. kearrs vote
Yea while Senator. Quarles, Clapp, Kittredge
and Scott said they heard him vote nay.
MIR. German pointed out that Mr. heains's
name was read as voting in the Affirmative.
and that no correction was made. which
fully justified the clerks in reporting him
as 30 voting.
Mr.. Dubois said Mr.. Beans told him
five minutes before the vote was taken
that he intended to vote in the negative.
II was therefore surprising, said Mr.. Du-
bos when he heard Mr.. hearns vote yea
Leaders Of the House tried early to-day
10 devise plan whereby the House would
be prevented from concurTing in the state
hood measure passed by the Senate last
night. They failed. They found that the
Republicans of the Pennsylvania delegation
were determined to follow the lead of Senator
Penrose There are twenty-nine OF them
eleven more than enough to overthrow
the Republican margin and enable tie
Democrats to concur In the Senate amend
ments.
Speaker Cannon told those who asked
him why he was opposing the bill that his
opposition rested entirely upon the fact
that the bill had been changed from Re-

Mccall Of Massachusetts.

One hundred and forty-eight Repub-
leans in the House of Representatives
voted on June /, 1900 for the buncombe
resolution proposing an amendment OF
the Constitution which should empower
Congress 10 define, regulate, control
prohibit or dissolve trusts, monopones
or combinations, whether existing in the
form of corporation or otherwise
This amendment, in other words, con-
ferred on the Federal Government limit
less power over all business in all the
States.
The one hundred and forty-eight Re-
publicans who voted for that astound-
ing proposal nearly five years ago did 80,
not because they desired the change OF
the Constitution in tho manner pro-
nosed but because the House managers
thought il would be profitable political
trick to put the majority thus on record
on the eve of the Presidential election
that year Every Republican in the
House who voted for the buncombe
Joint resolution on that discreditaole
day knew that it could not and would
not pass the Senate.
Two Republicans in the House, and
only two, had the courage, the inde-
pendence, the appreciation OF their own
individual responsibility as legislators
and Of the proper dignity of the House
to stand up and say mol" when the roll
was called.
One Of the two was SAMUEL WALKER
MCCALL of Massachusetts. We recall
the almost forgotten circumstance and
hone that il will be remembered TO his
everlasting honor.
For nothing more was ever heard OF
the buncombe constitutional amend
ment which he had the manliness TO de-
nounce by his fearless vote in the face OF
one hundred and forty-eight OF his party
associates.
To-day, at o'clock in the afternoon,
there will be another test Of individual
sincerity and independent courage
under somewhat similar conditions.
The Republicans OF the House will be
called upon at that hour to vote yea or
nay on the hastily patched up bill of
MT. lOMNSEND LOT tNAtl ~ US Niot'Ni' VI
transportation rates. They know that no
public interest requires the enactment
of this measure; that no public griev-
ance in the way Of unreasonable trans
portation rates is even alleged as a reason
for il; that if enacted, it will serve merely
as a precedent for further legislation
of similar character. thus making easier
the next revolutionary step in the reversal
of American policy Knowing all this.
the majority in the House will neverthe-
less vote in strong force for the Town
send bill, trusting to the Senate to kill
the dangerous bill later
How many McCalls will stand up in
the House to-day to be counted? We
know already of one. How many others
will embrace the opportunity to share
his honorable fame?

MnnlcY of Maine.

Perhaps the simplest way to get at a
mans character, after he is gone, is to
ask what the real live men Of his day
and generation actually thought of him.
Republicans and, we have no doubt,
Democrats all over the United States,
together with many intimate friends and
others known only as pass-the-time-o'-
day acquaintance of JOSEPH H. MANLEY
of Maine, have paused to ask that ques-
ton now that he is dead
In sorrow for his death The sun, in
expressing its thought Of MANLEY of
Maine, has no other opinion than that his
was one OF the gentlest and at the same
time one of the sturdiest souls of recent
years. Unhinching in his consistency
concerning the principles of his party,
he was never intolerant Of the opinions
OF others.
JOE MANLEY was an American and not
a humbug.

An interest much wider than the boun-
diaries OF Somerset county, or even OF the
State OF New Jersey, attaches TO the efforts
that are being made to save from destruc-
ton the old court house at Somerville.
Such heirlooms handed down to us out OF
the past are all too rure, and, alasl their
number is rapidly diminishing. They are
not of the things that may be replaced
Gone once, they are gone forever. The
misfortune of their loss Ia by no means
merely parochial: it touches all the country
In a way. Moreover. it is not altogether
a mere sentimental affection. Particularly
in rural parts, contact with our quieter
and simpler American past, as expressed
In the architecture OF many Of the eighteenth
century public buildings, is steadying
influence that is wholesome and Of value.
The old Somervile court house, standing
in its quiet dignity with its grave and
stately trees about it. Is an instance IN point.
We hope the old building may nc be swept
away We heartily sympathi1e with the
efforts that are being made to save It,
