Populism and Public Utilities.

Tom Watson puts forth the claim that
Judge DUNES election was triumph of
old-fashiened populism, and expresses the
hope that old-fashioned populists every
where Will rejoice in it. Mr. Bryan claims
that 1t a triumph of new-fash!oned
democracy. and hopes 10 see the fruits of
1t appear in our national affairs young
man of the lame of Patterson of Chicago,
of distinguished republican antecedents,
who supported Judge Dunno and has been
appointed to office by him, sees in the re-
suit something in which good republicans
may rejoice. Was there ever a triumph so
rlany sided, and so fraught with comfort
and encouragement to so many different
kinds of people?
Mr.. Watson should have been at the Chi
ego Jefferson dinner. The function was
interesting without him, but, in the light
of his present admission how much more
Interesting it would have been with him.
Think of how he would have greeted Judge
Dunno; of how he would have interpreted
the city election; OF how the guests would
Rave received his popu!istic Fluctuations!
We have his views. it is true, in detail

zine-but mis- words. hot from the griddle,
would have been more inspiring. And here

Toner. The editor of weekly has more
says. and has them oftener.
Old-fashioned populism takes US back to
the Ocala platform, and to those who ad
vocated it. 1t is not so long ago. And yet
many things have happened since then.
That deliveranCe, which, in that day,
seemed so extreme in some of it's features,
would not excite the same wonder today.
The Bryan democracy and the Dunno
democracy have familiaTized US with many
extreme propositions, and have brought a
great many voters to their support. The
spiri- of the Ocala platform has been
marching on, and who shall say what it
will not have done by 1908? We are living
and moving in wondrous timess
Mr.. Watson is one of the few populist
leaders still holding the fort. Former Sen
ator Allen of Nebraska is another. And
here and there are members of the rank
and file who have remained faithful with
out office or the hope of office. But others
have erred and strayed from the path like
lost sheep. Mr. PETER went back to the
republican party, and is now affiliating with
it. jerry Simpson turned democrat and
sought office from that party, but failed.
How mcny there are of the old guard to
rejoice with Mr.. Watson in Judge DUNES
election and to accept his view of it's mean
ing cannot be stated. But there are hun
dIeds of thousands of democrats who would
groan ii they thought Mr. Watson was

other curious feature of these plays is that

Christ the Lord Is Risen" The hymn
swells through all Christian countries.
Millions of voices are raised in united
thanksgiving for the sign of Immortality
and divine ordination. With all the glories
of the springtide blooms Of nature, with
the strains of the most beautiful music
man has ever written. the thought of the
day is expressed in manifold ways. He
was dead. and He has risen. The grave has
yielded its prisoner. The soul has assembled
to its reward. Life is renewed.
The seed that springs into life when the
earth is warmed in the spring is often cited
by theologians as the simplest and most
convincing symbol of the souls everlasting
existence The grave takes the body, but
the spirit is not buried 1t soon energies
and ascends to planes higher than those in
which the heavily laden occupant of the
physical frame is compelled to exist.
On this day there must be unquestioning
faith in the hereafter. In the certainty of
some form of soul existence after the
phenomenon called death. The tomb that
yielded up its occupant in the plain beyond
Jerusalem centuries ago concentrates the
natural faith of mankind in a future state.
1t is the historical. tangible fact that
holds firmly the wavering. Hence the beau
tiful accomplishments of the celebration. the
casting off of the purple of mourning. the
abandonment of the austerlty of living. 1t
IS natural and necessary to believe in a
hereafter. to feel that this life is but a stage
in a journey and that the grave is merely
an incident, pause. or It may even be a

Recent Senatorial Losses

The United States Senate has lost heavily
during few weeks in point of its senior
membership, by death and retirement
With full membership of ninety senator's
at the close of the last Congress the upper
house showed a record of aggregate contin-
uous service of T54 years, an average of S.37
years per member. Then came the retire
ment, for one reason and another, of Sena-
tors Cockrell, with thirty years service;
Hawley, with twenty-four; Stewart, with
eighteen; Fairbanks with eight; Foster and
Quarles, with six each; Bard, with five;
Kearns. Gibson and Dietrich with four
each; and Ball, with two. Shortly after
came the death of Senator Bate, with eigh-
teen years, and now follows the death of
Senator Plat of Connecticut, with tweny-
six, cutting off, with the retrements
total of 155 years of continuous service, and
reducing the average of the senatorial mem
bership, assuming the existing vacancies all
to be filled, to 668 years each, or loss
from the former average of Ill years. Of
the retiring senator's Mr.. Stewart had
served previously in the upper house for
ten years while of the still sitting members
Mr.. Teller had served for about six and a
half and Mr.. Spooner for six years. these
two items approximately balancing that of
Mr.. Stewards prior service. Mr. Platt of
Connecticut was at the time of his death
one OF the three members of longest actual
or continuous service in the Senate. being
surpassed in that regard only by Senator
Allison, with his remarkable record of
thirty-two years without break, and Mr..
Morgan, with twenty-eight years.

The Tariff.

Senator Dick says that the railroad rate
problem is a live issue. and that tariff re-
vision comes pretty near being dead
one" Consequently he expects Congress TO
do something in the one case, and nothing
in the other AS Mr. Hanna's successor in
the Senate Mr. Dick follows the line of the
standpatters. He admits that some of the
tariff schedules should be revised, but fears
that an attempt to do that would involve
the whole law and unsettle business. How
then will 1t be possible ever to take up the
tariff subject? The business world knows
that with the party of protection in full
control of the government no blow at pro-
lection as policy is to be feared Sched-
ules from A to u might be examined and
discussed-become involved, as Mr.. DICK
puts it-but how would that unsettle bust
ness with the knowledge general and the
assurance complete that only excrescences
were to receive the knife? The standpatters
are the standforevers, and If they prevail
it means sooner or later q crash which will
shake the whole protection principle
