The Gateway to Other Reforms.


Shall the peoples? Every remedial
measure of a national character must
run the gauntlet of the senate. The
president may personally incline to-
ward a reform; the house may consent
to it; but as long as the senate OBJ
structs the reform, the people must
wait. The president may heed a popu-
lar demand; the house may yield to
public opinion. but as long as the SEN
ate is defiant, the rule of the people is
defeated. The democratic platform
very properly describes the popular
election of senators as the gateway to
other national reforms Shall we
open the gate, or shall we allow the
exploiting interests to bar the way by
the control of this branch Of the fed
eral legislature? Through a democrat
lc victory, and through a democratic
victory only can the people secure the
popular election of senator's The small
Ter parties are unable to secure this

House Rules Despotic
The third instrumentality employed
to defeat the will of the people is
found in the rules of the house Of
representatives. Our platform points
out that the house of representatives
was designed by the fathers of the
constitution, to be the popular branch
OF our government, responsive to the
public WILL and adds: The house Of
representatives, as controlled in recent
years by the republican party. has
ceased to be deliberative and legisla-
tive body, responsive to the will of a
majoHity of the members, but has
come under the absolute domination Of
the speaker, who has entire control of
its deliberations. and powers of legis-
lation.' We have observed with
amazement the popular branch of our
federal government helpless to obtain
either the consideration or enactment
of measures desired by a majority OF
its members
This arraignment is fully justified

doubt their readiness to accept the rea

poses. rather than permit the continued
growth of existing abuses to hurry the
country on to remedies more radical

Our Party's Ideal.
"The platform of our party closes
with brief statement of the party
ideal. 1t favors such an administra
tor of the government as will insure,
as far as human wisdom can, that
each citizen shall draw from society
a reward commensurate with his cOntri-
button to the welfare of society,"
Governments are good in proportion
as they assure to each member of So
ciety. so far as governments can, a
return commensurate with individual
merit.

There is Divine law of rewards.
