CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS.
The House passed the Senate bill
prohibiting corporation from making
campaign contributions in Congress
sional and Presidential elections.
The unconstitutional lawyers and the
States rights people in Congress
equally agreed that it was impossible
for .ha Federal government to pro-
hibit the purchase of State legislat-
ors to vote for any candidate in the

there seems to be no remedy in

INCREASING CONGRESSIONAL
SALARIES.
The Senate concurred with the
House in increasing the salaries of
cabinet officers, the Speaker of the
House and the Vice President from
$4,000 to $4,000, and members of
the iouse ana senate from $4,000
to $1,000.
1t may be admitted that $4,000 n
year is 90 per cent OF the people of
the United States big income.

were given yfout at Washington,

people Of the United States TO be

Drift of Comment

The Senate has occupied consider
able TINE in passing upon the right
| of Reed Smooi, of Utah, TO sit in
that body. Thus far in the argu-
ment against Mr.. Smoots being
esated, the question of polygamy
has not been raised as 1t is generally
understood that Mr.. Smoot Is not
a polygamist The whole charge
against him has been that he con-
siders his allegiance to the Mormon
Church more sacred than his alleg-
lance to his country first, last. and
all the time can we'll receive an air
ing in the Senate. Mr.. Platt, Of the
Express Company trust; Mr.. Depew,

rather than to the god of Mammon.
The Republicans have gained many
Senator's from the Northern States
In recent years, but in almost every
case they have been in one way or
another closely associated with
trusts and monopolies. The fact
that all these men were elected by
the same party, and enjoy the
friendship and political support OF
the present administration. compels
one to stop and think. There is
widespread feeling that the Senator

creased the trust representation in
the United States are likely to result
in destruction OF the party response

lpress gallery on busy day and sees

middle corridor of the Capitol, and

THE CHIDT-LABOR BILL.
Senator Beveridge Introduced his
bill Cor the regulation of child labor.
This bill provides that the products
of any factory or mine in which
children under fourteen years Of age
are employed. or permitted to work,
shall rot be carried by any inter-
state railroad. This is the only
feasible way in which the Federal
government can attack the evil of
child labor. The individual States
have failed to act. The nation must
now take a hand in the matter.
1t is unfortunate for the Demo
Icratic party that the two great NOR
al AMI ethical measures upresented
to the United States Senate at this
session. the two great measures
which affect the people of this coun-
try chiefly, should have been pre-
scented by Republicans. We allude to
La Follette's bill. fixing the hours of
railroad employees, and the Bever.

ures have had. however, the hearty
support of the Democrats in Con-

TIME FOR THE
PEOPLES INNING

Ii begins TO look as though the
best thing the people of Ohio can
do. both as matter of a progress
sive policy and in self defense, is
to arrange TO send n democrat to
the United States senate to sup
plant Joseph B. Foraker.

ade, when he and President Roose-
velt were guests of the Gridiron
club Saturday evening, pretty
thoroughly convinces the people

Governor Harris has decided
that if it is the wish Of Ohio re-
publicans that he shall lead them,
he will fasten onto the haltar strap.
1t is now up TO Dick, Foraker, Cox
and the others to decide whether
they will throw him down or alter
their plans and allow him 10 make
the race.

1t appears that there are people
in Marion who are only half civil
lied. The Mirror cites an incident
during the appearance of Bertha
Kalich, the Jewish actress, at the
Grand Opera house in that city.
During a pathetic period of the play
"when the eyes of nearly every
person m the house were moistened
with tears, scme degenerate gallery
god had the i'll manners TO raise a
disturbance by laughing aloud and
emitting groan. The attention of
the audience was at once attracted
from the play and it was impos-
sible to get back into the spirit Of
the play" When it comes to Ber-
tha Kalich plays, Marion is out of
the running. Give 'em minstrel

that he is going to miss no op-
portunity to embarrass the presid-
ent. If he cannot win his fight
in the senate he is determined to
continue the fight into every quar-
ter where he can drive nail home
against the nations chief cxccu-
tive.
This attitude of hostility is not
q new one for Foraker. Ever
since he came into prominence,
politically, Foraker has been a
fire cater. He has always been op-
| posed TO every new move which
was not child of his brain. He
has fought every public man who
has come to the front with any
project which is little out of the
ordinary. He has in the mean time
lined up with the corporations and
against the people. Instead of rep
resenting the people of Ohio in the
United States, he has been repre-
senting only Joseph Benson Fora
ker.
In his defense of his action, be-
fore the Dayton convention last
summer, Foraker threw down tho
bars and invited the people to re-
tire him. He said t. the convention
that he proposed to pursue in the fu-
turc the same course which he
has in the past and that if the
people of Ohio do not like it they
can give some other person the
Job. An United States senator wall
be elected at the next session Of
ne legislature and it IS q calamity
that the voters cannot be given the
opportunity to vote for ;mcmbcrS of
the legislature with the election Of
Senator Foraker as one of the IS
sues. 1t is hardly probable that
the plan of elcctine United States
senator's bv direct vote could pos
sibly be adoped before the time for
the election of Foraker's successor
but If it could be accomplished
there would be much rejoicing upon
the part of republicans and demo-
Gratis, prohibitionists and members
of all other parties who have
been aching for n chance to show
the senior senator what they think
of him and his manner of running
things at Washington.
1t may be impossible to secure
he election of q democrat to sue
ceed Foraker, and if it be, then a
republican or prohibitionist, al
most "any old thing" will do. The
people of the state are good, and
tired of the senior senator. lie

long enough. He has been used for

cials have sought to overthrow.

One might say much about a gov
ernmont of equal rights to all and
special privileges to none. but ii Is
more interesting to draw attention
to a President who in one breath
would limit swollen fortunes and in
the next commits himself to pro-
ject which, If 1t does anything, de-
velops more swollen fortunes. That
the President should thus inconsist-
emily vse his great influence to EN-.
bark the country on new venture
in state-aided industry. in order to
avert the dire necessity of revising
the tariff in conformity with the
natural laws of trade. is indeed
strange. But If we must subsidize
the multimillionaires, why not state
aid TO our oyerburdened railroads,
who have proven themselves unequal
to the task of carrying our internal
commerce, much to the dct,iment
and disgust OF the whole nation.--

and entangled therein was the birds

was some two inches in length, coal
black, with green velvet spots on its
