The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1906-03-01
In Suekerdom.

The Republicans of Illinois are in
the midst of Kilkenny cat fight
which should rejoice the heart of every
Democrat from Maine to California
and from the st. Lawrence to the Rio
Grande. Richard the Second (Yates)
has begun campaign for the United
States senate which Is likely to make
Uncle Shelby Nj. Cullom hump him
SELF and which may grow so bitter as
to end in the election of Democrat
to succeed Cullom. Yates has blood in
his eye and talks about the Cullom-
Hopkins machine in language which
would not do to print IN young la
dies letter writer He is in deadly ear
nest and lays on and spares not. He
seems to be no respecter of persons,
but assails Uncle Shelby and other
high ana mighty Republican person
ages in the Sucker State in manner
to make them Vince. Uncle Shelby
does not relish stand up, knockdown
and drag out fight. He Is an adept In
whispering and wire pulling. If that's
the game, he will win, but If Yates can
force him into the open youth will
be served. 1t would be great thing
to send genuine Democrat to Wash
ington In lieu of Uncle Shelby.
Stranger things have happened.
In this connection 1t should be re-
membered that they have a peculiar
plan for electing a legislature In Illi-
nOis. Each senatorial district elects
three members Of the house. AT such
election voter can cast one vote for
each of three candidates, or all three
for one, or two for one and one for an
other, or one and half for each OF
two SO that the minority by skillful
management can always secure Its
share OF representation. sometimes
more. So that in this hot contest be-
twixt Cullom and Yates enough bitter
ness may be engendered TO enable the
Democrats to control the legislature.

In parliamentary history, ancient or mod

the electors of Bristol, said -on the sub

spect their business unremltted attention.
1t Is his duty TO sacrifice his repose. his
pleasures. his satisfactions. to theirs and.
above all. ever and in all cases. to prefer
their interests to his own. But his un-
biased opinion. his mature Judgment. his
enlightened conscience, he ought not to
sacriiice to YOU, TO any man or to any set
of men living. These he does not derive
from your pleasure-no. nor from the law
and the constitution. They are trust from
Providence for the abuse OF which he Is
deeply answerable. Your representative
owes you not his industry only. but his
Judgment. a,ii he brtrays instead of serv-
ing you II he sacrifices 1t TO your opinion

not of inclination. and what sort of rea-
son is that in which the determination
precedes the discussion, in which one set
of men deliberate and another decide and
where those who form the conclusion are
perhaps 300 miles from those who hear
the argumentS?"
But that speech cost Burke the seat for
Bristol in the succeeding parliament and
ever after he-the greatest subject OF the
British crowh-sat for the insignificant
borough of Nation. When Lamar was re-
buked by Jefferson Davis for refusing to
obey the instructions of the Mississippi
Legislature, though Davis admitted that
his position on the silver question was
correct he answered with an elaboration
of Burkes conclusive argument. A men,
ber OF the house OF representatives Is a
delegate from the people: senator has
been enormously designated an "ambas-
sador from Il sovereign state" Perhaps
this definition is the only thing in politics
concerning which Joseph w. Bailey and
Henry Cabot Lodge are agreed An am
bassador represents the crown--or, as we
say, the president-and is the product OF
the cabinet. a senator represents the
state and is chosen by the states general
of the state. He is more than a delegate
of the people. he is more than an ambas-
sador of the mnistry--he is the state In
