Mr.. FOTaker'S Explanation.

Senator Foraker-one Of the best
lawyers in Congress and a consist
ent opponent within the party of the
Republican machine in Ohio-offers
this explanation of Tuesdays ak
welding in Ohio:
The defeats We have sustained I'm the
city and the State have no relation 10
national politics. but are due solely 10
local and other causes
Whether right or NOT the belief OBJ
tains that the great mass of voters
have not had any proper representation
IN nominating conventions. and that a
man with an ambition 10 engage in
the public service had no opportunity
unless he was fortunate enough 10 be
put on a pTedrrauged slate. IT was
natural 10 expect that sooner or later
this would be resented. I'm large part
that is what the defeats OF yesterday
meant.
II win be easy TO cure this trouble.
The way is TO return 10 the old-fashiou-
cd practice Of having real conventions.
a which all who aspire to nominations
VIII have an equal chance.
There were other causes that con-
tributed TO cur defeat that viii occur
10 everyone familiar with. The situa-
for they VIII pass away with this eiel-
tion.
The Senator's defnitive exclusion
OF national politics is manifesly de-
liberate. IN considering it. his Wash
ington neighDors should carefully
remember these facts:
That the party convention which
nominated the Republican candidates
explicitly refused TO indo&se tariff
revision
That the same convention deliber-
ateiy crossed a proposal for a severer
restriction of the liquor traffic in the
State.
That the machine. although per
sonally inoffensive. was the choice of
machine which has co-operated
quietly. but effectively. to block the
progress Of 50 important a national
policy as the regulation Of railway
rates by Federal legislation.
That the nominees of the party,
the convention which ostensibly Sc
lected those nominees, and the speak
ers who were permitted TO represent
nominees and party alike, based their
appeal for the support Of the voter
The Washington times., 1905-11-09

chiefly on the ground of party reg
ula1it.
That in all these respects the voter
was asked TO sustain citizens like
Secretary Shaw to the disparagement
of citizens like Secretary Taft, as
the convention had done at the open
ing of the campaign and the machine
did throughout the campaign.
But there is yet ground enough
for the defeat OF the Republican party
in Ohio in what the Senator says.
II he were altogether right-whieh
he is motif tariff revision, stringent
supervision Of the liquor trade, and
machine control had played little or
no part in the campaign, the. situa-
ton Of the usual party convention
to which he refers would more than
justify the extraordinary revolt of
his fellow-OhiUans. But the Senator
does not go far enough in this mat
ter. He has noted the abuse. Why
doesn't he name the remedy?
The result in every district in the
State and nearly every district in
every other State where an election
was held, points clearly to the only
remedy which the American people
will accept. 1t is not any artificial
restraint against the instruction
/ Of delegates to party conventions.
That may or nay not be the remedy
the Senator meant to suggest. 1t is
not legislation against bosses. That
may or may not be feasible and de-
sirable. 1t is a remedy that goes
deeper down than either and it is
the only remedy which will prove
anything more than a subterfuge to
be avoided, perhaps with more diff
Guilty, but nevertheless avoided, by
bosses OF the same mold as those
who have just been buried in Ohio
the further gain in strength and in
fuence by the Independent voter.
Bossism is most conspicuous, per.
haps. in conventions; it gets in it
! real work at the primaries. The only
place to stop it effectively is at thr
/ primaries. The only certain means o
doing that is TO foster independence
at the primaries. When that is &C
complished so far that clear-headet

men, viii see the shame of sellin

SOUTHERN PROHIBITI0NISTS
TAKING TO CAETEEN IDEA

A mighty interesting idea Is gaining

where the counties have voted for pro
hibition." said Z. S. Madinger. OF
Tennessee. at the Metropolitan.
1T has been demonstrated that pro-
hfbition in some counties and whisky
selling in others do not result in the
restriction Of the liquor traffic that the
Prohibitionists had hoped. The testimony
Of practically every officer in the army
that the canteen prevented much
drunkenness, and made the moral tone
OF the soldiers many times better thaa
under existing conditions. has drawn
attention. even amons Prohibstionists OF
a practical turn TO the suggestion that
something on the canteen idea might be
effective in dry counties.
''The talk is that many dry eogn5les
will make the experiment OF permitting
The sale of beer and light wines. and
preventing the sale OF the stronger
drinks.
Most OF the prohibition laws OF the
different States would have to be amend

its small percentage of alcohol, about
3 per cent. This IS less than common

Mr.. IyinS, of New York.

One Of the pleasing personalities
discovered-or rather rediscovered-
by the just ended contest in New
York is that of William NJ. WINS, the
defeated Republican candidate for
mayor. Leading gallantly foElorn
hope, bearing himself always with
sprightly good humor and lighting
everything he touched with eloquence
and wit. his was a figure most pleas
ant to contemplate.
Presumably, Mr.. WINS never hoped
for election. Although ne made the
usual campaign announcements of
confidence in his own success, they
were taken generally as they We're
meant, in their Pickwickian sense.
He made frequent speeches, every
one we'll worth attention. He had ac-
cepted at the last a nomination that
had been peddled about by Odell and
refused by half a score. He entered
the campaign. therefore, with this
handicap, the butt OF ridicule for all
of his opponents and the object Of
every Democratic and Independent
newspapers daily gibes.
In a few weeks, by the force of his
personality and its pleasing and
gracious qualities, he had gained the
good will Of those who were fighting
him hardest The newspapers that
most earnestly besought their read
/ ers to cast their ballots for other
/ candidates had only kindly words
for Mr.. WINS. In truth, through all
the mud Of the campaign, its filth OF
/ crooked dealing and violated faith
/ Mr. WINS spirit and bearing cast

He accepted the announcement OF
his defeat with the CHEEKY remark
I that he had been elected TO practice

success and that consolation which
. comes TO the man who. Whatever the
outcome Of his endeayor, has fought
a good fight and kept the faith Poll
