who have been his political enemies cannot

have ever bested him. His integrity has
stood the test through many and many a
hard fought political struggle. His ability
as a man who does things is not questioned.
These are the reasons why Edward Rose
water is nearer the people today than any
man mentioned in connection with the SEN
atorship.

and South Platte in politics for n long
time. II division geograp hical we must

senators. The Quiz and a number of other
republicans have stood for =. Rosewater
all along for some place of honor and
public service and we are pleased TO note
the fact that the prejudices against that
brainy and fearless man are fading away.
We were particularly impressed with this
| fact when we felt and saw the evident
| good will universally entertained toward
| him at the recent state press meeting.
r. Rosewater has been fought against by
men OF his own party more than any other
Nebraska republican but he still survives,
and in fact has usually been correct in
his positions on public questions. In the
senate he would command immediate at
tention, as much as many of the older
! members OF that body, for he is known
everywhere and is everywhere recognized
as one of our brainiest and most reliable
men, Let us make him senator once and
see what he will do. One thing, he will
not sell us out neither will he stand for
the great public enemies OF the day.

OHIO VS.. STANDARD OIL.

Ohio. where Standard Oil industries
are greatly centralized and which has
long been a chief seat of their power,
is the latest state to grapple with the
monopoly. The full power of the state
is enlisted in the effort, and if the grip
of the monopoly can be broken in Ohio,
as there is reason to hope it may be, a
long step will have been taken in the
subOrdination Of corporations to public
authority.
The mere effort which the Ohio au-
thoritles are making is by itself hope
full sign, for the contest in that state
with the great trade conspiracy was for
decades mainly a losing one. Its posi-
ton there came to be long regarded
as practically invulnerable to attack,
not only by private interests, but also
by the representatives of the law.
1t is not any new and peculiarly in
furious aggression of the Standard Oil
monopoly that is causing public author
ity to bestir itself in Ohio and many
other states to bring it to book. Its
offenses against public policy and law
are not more fragrant now than they
have been all the time, but on the con
trary are probably far less so. The
difference arises from the mighty
change of public attitude toward great
monopolizlng and law defying corpora
lions. 1t is the rising and uncomprOmis
ing determination Of the people tina
now confronts them in the Legislatures
and the courts, in congress and in tn,
invigorated arm of executive powei
everywhere.
This is only the beginning. The Stand

tribute on the public and acting in I'm
lawful conspiracy with railroads, ha

TIME FOR ACTION.

With the skill of IAN old parliament
tary hand" Senator Allison has seized
the psychological moment to declare in
the senate that the country is tired
of the prolonged rate debate and the
time for action has arrived" The
prompt assent Of Senator Bailey, the
democratic leader, and many other sena-
tors on both sides of the senate chamber
makes clear a strong and probably domi-
nant purpose now to force the struggle
to conclusion and to press the ad-
vantage which the opponents OF rate
control by excessive obstruction and
fnesse have at length put in the hands
of its advocates.
The refusal of Senator Aldrich the
other day, following a long series of like
objections after debate had already been
protracted beyond reasonable bounds, to
consent to time fixed so far in the
future as the middle of May to close
the discussion and begin voting on
amendments has caused protest and in
dignation from one end of the country
to the other. Such a state of public
! feeling, which is obviously not to be
trifed with, is serious thing for not
a few senators, who, although at heart
they may be ready enough to cooperate
| with corporate interests so far as they
can with safety to themselves, represent
constituencies now imperiously demand
ing that they stand up and be counted.
| Aldrich and his coterie of corporation
colleagues have carried the tactics of
delay and obstruction to an extreme in
and heretofore abetting them TO aid
them further is tantamount in public
| judgment to standing up and being
counted on that side.
The pressure of public opinion, alert
to every move of the corporation strate-
! gists and Obstructionists and cOncen-
trated on the main point of the great
game in the senate, is now being felt
nightly for bringing it to a final test
1t Will not be possible for them long to
stave off vote II the advocates OF rate
control aggressively press along the line
indicated SO opportunity and forcibly
by Senator Allison. except at the fatal
expense of exposing perverse defiance
of the universal demand Of the country
and foolhardy purpose TO defeat it by
sheer abuse of so-called courtesy of the
senate. The senatorial corporation con
tingent, thick-skinned and stubborn as
it is, will hardly dare to go to thai
length. 1t Is now up to the positive
advocates OF the popular policy to force
the opposition either to action or to the
only alternative of desperate, con
spicuous and suicidal obstruction.
