The Chattanooga Times calls atten- ton to the fact that when MT. Moody takes his seat on the Supreme Court bench the little State of Massachusetts will have two representatives on that tribunal. while the entire South will not have a single one. The Times should not feel any surprise at this. particularly when it remembers who appoints. the judges. And, speaking of this sectional partiality. The Chicago Tribune, strong Republican paper, declares that the President would have selected Southern man instead of Moody, "had fit not been for the fear that a Southern man would uphold the States, Rights" doctrine.

According to the Chicago papers the authorities of that wicked city are about to engage in a task that will be harder to accomplish than anything that old man Hercules tackled. They propose, in short, to compel all dealers fin the city to sell the quantity of goods groceries and other things that they profess to- sell, and that they get paid for. Whether the article sold is Of solid or lfquid quality. the seller must give just the quantity he proposes to give, or the authorities will bring him they will not succeed.

 Mir. Bryan's ability to extract sum- beaps from cucumbers is made mani- fesG by his optimistic estimate of re- cent election results. In an interview ke kYis is 0e reported eeg Os tO have m d said: TSc election of 1906 indicates trend in favor of the Democratic party, lt proves that the Democratic party IS growing stronger as Republican poli- cies are developed"
 !, If the comparison is made with the Democratic party since 1t came under some degree true, but the result of Tuesdays election does not afford b0uyant hope of the Democratic par tvs return to the place 1t held from 1884 to 1894 when 1t had elected the President and controlled both branches of Congress. It is certain that MT. Bryan's optimism was not based on the result in Nebraska, where the Repub- 'lican majority was considerably in- creased.

Nr. Gompers Is satleaed !.

Washington Herald.
 President Gompers, of the American Federation of Labor, for whom this newspaper entertains high respect, must possess an easy-going mind if he is satisfied as reports indicate, with the result of the elections.
 MT. Gompers did not achieve polit- ical victory In any Congressional Dis trict. On the other hand, the men who were especially marked for slaughter emerged from the conflict with in- creased majorities This is especially true of Speaker Cannon, who, in his speech at DanVifle upon the occasion of his renomination. met MT. Gompers with a defiant declaration, and who has been returned to Congress with larger majority than no enjoyed two years ago. this country no attempt to convert orr ganized labor into a vast political ma chine has ever succeeded Our labor ing men are too independent and intel ligent to be led into any movement of that kind.

Indeed, the results of the eiec- tion indicate the Federation itself was quick to discover the unwisdom of the movement whatever the merits of the cases of which he made issue.
