The death of Senator Proctor re-
duces the number of Union veterans
in the senate to eight. There are
ten ex-confederates, however, max
ing an aggregate of 20 per cent. who
saw service in the civil war. Not
withstanding the comparative youth
fulness of some newly elected mem
bers, the senate is still body OF
graybeards.

From the Montpelier Journal.

Tie Governor is undoubtedly
moved by strong considerations OF
family gratitude in behalf of exGov-
ernor Carroll S. Page, who first APP
pointed Red6eld Proctor in 1891 to
the Senatorship which he held at
death, and he is also personally in
debted to Page for substantial aid in
the Clement campaign of 1906, when
the pivotal county of Lamoille was
largely saved to Proctor by the in
huence of Carroll S. Page.
This was all the more remarkable
when one remembers the defeat of
Page for Congress in 1900, due, as
everyone believes, to the delivery of
Proctor's Rutland county delegation
to Foster on the crucial ballot of the
day.
Certainly, it would seem to be
nothing more than fair compensa-
ton to appoint Page to the position
1T this time, but this is by no means
all of the difficulty. ?
Page appointed and in Office,
would be an exceedingly formidable
candidate, not only this fall, but in
1910. In fact, in the ordinary
course of things, he would be practi-
cally sure of Office until 1916. AS
the Governor is himself credited with
honorable designs upon the Senator
ship, he might we'll hesitate before
taking such a step.
Then, again, there are Fosters
claims, as so admirably stated by
his admirable press representative.
There is possibility of o. M. Bar
Der. Ex-Governor f. c. Smith has
had Washington aspirations for
some years. In brief, there are many,
friends of Governor Proctor who
would object with great fervor to
the tremendous advantage he would
give Gov" Page by an intermin
appointment.
ma very plausible solution of the
problem would be to. m axe .altern-
porary appointment of some proper
person like ex-governor ]. ". Stew

Senator Proctor

If Vermont had son who more
than any other was recognized as a
leader in political thought and IN
breadth of craftsmanship, it was
Red6eld Proctor. He loved Vermont
ana his constant thought was to
promote her every interest. No de-
serving son sought in vain for recog'
milton or advancement, aid or en-
enlargement at his hands. He was
a true product of Vermont soil
rugged as her hills, with spinal
column as firm as that of the noun,
tains which form the physical back
bone of our state. He will be missed
and mourned as no other son would
have been.
With his departure the last OF that
distinguished trio which gave Ver-
mont a national reputation Ed
munds, Morrill,, Proctor-has passtd
out of public life.

that already decisive steps have been
taken towards heading eff the spread

Commerce and Labor, last week
communicated by means of circular

classes, and to see that the police
weed out such updesirables, i'll ac-

Senator William B. Allison of Iowa
reached his 10th birthday on March
I'd. He is one of the ablest and most
patriotic men in the upper house OF
the National Legislature. He has
just completed thirty-fve years in
the Senate, His age does not show !;
his record as a statesman, through
all the ffty-three years he has been
in Washington, speaks for itself. We
do not believe he has once, know
ingly, championed an unworthy
measure or STOOD for a single act
that was designed for aughr but
good to the people. 1t may be add
ed that his Senatorial record of thirty
five years breaks ali records.

MARTIN RISES TO THE
DEFENSE or BEVERIDGE

Aside from his strut which always
makes a hit in any audience Martin
seemed to get off wrong yesterday ali
the way through His threat that the
republican party Of New Mexico would
have to swallow Andrews left him
with a rather unsympathetic audience
He had previously fused himself up
a bit by announcing that while per-
sonally he was against statehood for
New Mexico and had so announced
himself, that a recent trip to Washing
ton and the position Of the republican
rarity had determined him to be for
it and that hereafter he would be for
It.

end of the convention. It may htyc
been that the comparison between real
oratory and his own hord fussness

times, it may have been some other
cause or causes, but certain ii Is
that the moment Ralph e. TwtChell
began to speak Martin got into an
awful pet Martins oratory compared
to that of Colonel Twitchell is as q
hurdy eurdy, sputtering in competi-
ton with a big brass band. Colonel
Twitchell made clean cut, life size,
man-like attack on Senator Beveridge
Of Indiana. the person who has done
as much to iniure New Mexico be-
fore the nation as any other man in
public life. This was merely in course
of a speech on other and more inn
portant things But the Honorable
Billy couldn't stand for it, He rose,
called Mr. Bursum to the platform
and descending to the floor demanded
that that portion of Colonel Twitchcll's
speech referring to Beveridge be
stricken out Just what caused the
outbreak is not known whether Mr..
Martin was allowed to leave his visit
ing card in Senator Bevcridge's com
mittee room, or whether he was just
fussy. The convention took the mat
ter up and a roll call on Martins mo-
tion to strike out was demanded, In

ed and almost shaking coldness which

ton instructed to secure an endorse
ment for Andrews for denomination if
they could. Other counties had sent
delegations strongly Favored with An
drews sentiment, yet the overwhelm-
irg sentiment of this convention was
against Andrews. It was so plain that
none but a man blind and deaf could
fail to comprehend it. The resolutions
give endorsements to Andrews work
in congress. Yet delegates We're found

or course it's necessary 10 endorse
Andrews work in congress. He's done
his best, no doubt, but it doesn't
mean anything 1t would be political
