are Senators Quay, Hoar, Bate, Hawley

This mortality among the older states
men inspires the question of Who will
be the next?" There are now serving in
the senate al more than three score and
ten years Of age Senators Morgan and
Petus of Alabama, Teller OF Colorado,
Cullon of Illinois, Allison of Iowa, Frye
Of Maine, Platt and Depew of New York,
and Proctor Of Vermont. The weight OF
increasing years is plainly visible on
some of these noted statesmen. Senator
Morgan Of Alabama has aged very per-
ceptibly in the last year. He has lost
flesh and, although still able to make a
prolonged speech, his voice has lost much
Of its fullness. and after an hour or two
on the floor he is compelled to seek the
indulgence OF the senate while he sits
down and rests in the course of his
speech.

has had frequent weak spells in the last
year or two and is not nearly so vigorous
as some Of his older colleagues. A long
rest this summer. most of which he will
spend at his lodge on the range of lakes
in Maine, may restore much OF his vital
ity, but his friends have been watching
him with anxious eyes. Senator Plat of |
New York is probably the feeblest man
in the senate. but as he has been in that |
for some years the chances are |
he may outlive many of the more robust /
senator's. Teller of Colorado is becom-
ing bent and stopped with his IS years,
and even the Woodworking Allison is be-

sorts of information. He does not al.
ways confine himself to the exact sub.
ject under consideration. but wanders
a good deal into general fields Of pOliti-
cal economy. Mr.. Newlands is a very
strong advocate of granting charters By
the national government to corporations
doing an interstate business. In his
cross-examination of railroad men be-
fore the committee he is sure 10 lead up

There has been a disposition on the

alton. that Of the government fixing
railway freight rates He has not, how
ever, checked Mr.. Newlands in the lat
ter's inquiries, and the reason given is
because the Nevada senator is such a
good fellow" Mr.. Newlands is entitled
10 being termed a good fellow. as he is
one of the most royal hosts in Washing
ton. He lives in a century old mansion
on the heights overlooking the north
west section of Washington. and the
broad lawns and rambling rooms Of this
old home are ideal for the exhibition of
whole-souled hospitality. The senator
delights in entertaining here numbers of
mis- colleagues. and no pleasanter eve
ming can be spent than at his almost
haronial dining table The interstate
commerce committee has had this pleas
IRE more than once. and 1t is easily APP
parent why Mr.. Newlands is given free

member Of Matinecock lodge at Oyster
Raw. He has been elected to receive sew
eral high degrees in masonry, but the
pressure of public business has prevent
ed his taking them. He will probably
wait until he retires from the presidency
before going through these limitations.
Vice President Fairbanks also became
a Mason after his election to the vice
presidency, but It is his intention to take
as many degrees as possible in the near
future. so that when 1908 comes around
he will be a full-fledged Mason OF the
several degrees, including the Knights
Templar and the Scottish rite degrees up
TO the thirty-second. Mr.. Fairbanks en-
tered a lodge In Indianapolis during the
Christmas holidays last winter, special
dispensation having been granted in
order that he might take three degrees
in one day. During the present year he
expects to take the remaining degrees OF
the York rite.
The best known OF Masons among
presidents of later years were Garfield,
Harrison and Mckinley. GARFIELD and
Mckinley were Knights Templar' and
usually attended the conclaves OF that
order Andrew Jackson was at one time
grand master of the grand lodge OF Ten
nessee. John Quincy Adams was one
nresident who was conspicuously OPP
posed to Masonry. He was elected our
ing the days Of the anti-masonry excise
ment and talked and wrote against the
order With considerable vigor. A poll OF
the house made few years ago showed
that 81 per cent, of the members were
Masons. and q similar poll OF the senste

they will have to pay for their meals
and Pullman fare to San Francisco; for
heir meals on board the transport
across the Pacific and for their subsist-
nee while in the Philippines. The sec
rotary calculates that this means an out
lay of about $500 per man.
As this trip was proposed for the Dur
pose of enlightening the prominent
statesmen on many questions affecting
the Philippines and the general govern
ment. and the results Of the expedition
are TO be shown in general legislation,
number Of the congressman cannot I'M
derstand why they are called upon to
give up good money of their own for the

secretary Taft believes that every cent
expended on this trip will be well invest
ed. and also that all the expenses Of the
party should be betrayed either by the
Philippine government or out of the
United States government. He is re-
stricted. however, in the extension of the
hospitality Of the Philippine govern
ment. as some very nnnicky auditors OF
