WHAT Mr. FAIRBANKS
SAID ON LEAVING
HIS GREAT OFFICE
HIS SPEECH CUT OUT BY WIRE SHORTAGE
YESTERDAY, BUT WORTHY OF PRINTING
EVEN AT THIS LATE HOUR

Senators: Again new admins
tration succeeds to the control of ma
tional affairs in conformity with the
will of the people, expressed in their
sovereign capacity, under the orderly
processes of the law. We witness
the impressive transference of ma
tional power in accordance with their
will deliberately recorded, with i'm
creased respect for our institutions.
We indulge the .ervent hope that the
administration which assumes author
ity under such agreeable auspices will
meet in full measure our national
needs; that we may continue in hap
by accord with the powers of the
world; that peace, contentment and
progress may prevail throughout our
borders, and that our country may
grow in material strength; and more
than that and better than that, that
education. morality Justice and pat
riotism, which are our chief sources
OF pride may continue 70 increase
among our people.
IL now becomes my duty TO take
final leave of you, and in doing so !
beg TO return TO you my profoundest
thanks for the resolution which you
have just adopted, personal TO my
self. To receive vote OF your APP
proval without division is an honor
which I shall carry with me to the
end of my days and transmit to my
children as a priceless legacy.
In these latter days much severe
criticism is heard OF the senate OF
the United States. but II has always
been so since the time OF our faith
ers, and that II will continue | have
no doubt The record df the senate
to which It's present membership has
contributed. Is made and is beyond
recall know OF none better made
by any legislative assembly anywhere
In my judgment II withstand com
parison with the record OF the sen
ate In It's elder days II has beer
written by men learned In the scienc,
OF government, inspired by as patri
ltic purposes as actuated their Illus
trious predecessors.
The senate OF the United States
must remain an important part OF q
thoroughly indep, ndent. coordinate
branch OF the government neither
arrogating TO itself functions not de
volved upon II under the constitu'
tion. nor, upon the other hand, sub
tracing from It's legitimate powers
Its legislative duties are vast, while
its duties with respect TO treaties and
appointments TO the public service
are OF very great moment A seryil'
senate was not contemplated by Ia
founders. The senate is today AZ
Jealous as ever OF It's proper digni
ties and its Just powers and as worthy
as ever of the popular respect and
confidence.

II requires no gift of prophecy to
foretell that many varied and COM
plex questions will come here for So
luton in the not very distant future
questions which will have a poten-
tial bearing upon the very structure
of republican government and an i'm
portant influence upon our social and
Industrial systems. To you who shall
remain, and TO your successors, the
country will look and believe II
will look with confidence. for So
luton which will be In harmony with
the genius of American institutions
and which will oomport with our best
national interest.
The senate, II is sometimes said,
is not always responsive to the popu-
lar will. Such assumption is errone-
Gus, Judging by the record of legls-
lation accomplished The will of the
people finds utterance I'm the public
law I'm due course; not that will
which is the unreasoning passionate
expression of the moment, but that
will which is the fruit OF deliberate,
intelligent reflection.
The senate OF the United States
was designed by our fathers TO be n
deliberate chamber In the fullest and
best sense--a chamber where the pas
sions OF the hour might be arrested
and where the better judgment OF
the people would find ultimate ex-
preston. Those who In their unre-
flecting moments would sweep II
away would overturn one OF the
strongest safeguards OF our political
fabric.
