From two to five ranger stations
are now connected with the super
visors office on many of the national
forests. and by the use of phones in
the homes of settlers centrally loeat-

reached. The marked saving in time

The New Senate,

The United States senate of the
Sixty-first congress, already in special
session to confirm urgent appoint
ments by President Taft, stands po-
~litically almost as the last one did.
with fifty-nine republicans and thirty
two democrats. The election of a re-
publican in Illinois to succeed Senator
Hopkins will give the republicans sixty
votes, or two short of a clear two
thirds vote in the senate, the number
necessary for the ratification of
treaties and certain other official bust
ness.
While the political division of the
senate is not much changed, there has
been a marked change in the per-
sonnet, a change that will be far from
pleasing to the old regime, which has
had things very much it's own way for
years. OF the eleven new members,
FIVE are democrats and six are republi-
ans. The democrats gain one in In
diana and one in Oregon. while they
lose a member in Kentucky. The re-
publicans gain, however, in losing a
number of re~actionaries; who are sue
ceeded by members known to be in full
sympathy with the policies established
by Mr.. Roosevelt and to the continu-
ance of which President Taft and the
congress elected with him are pledged.
Senator Foraker of Ohio, a strong op-
ponent of Mr.. Roosevelt, is succeeded
by Senator Burton. who is in full ac-
cord with progressive republicanism.
Long. a standpatter from Kansas, is
succeeded by Joseph L. Bristow, one
of the original crusaders against the
old order of things. Both North and
South Dakota send senators who will
be In full accord with the Taft admin
istration, as their predecessors were
not. Senator Kittredge of South Da-
kota is succeeded by Coe I. Crawford
and Senator Hansbrough of North Da-
kota by Martin N. Johnson. w. l..
Jones, who made an admirable record
as congressman from the state of
Washington, succeeds Senator Ankeny,
who was counted among the opponents
Of about everything the republicans
wanted to do. Elihu Root succeeds
Thomas Collier Plat of New York,
giving the Empire state a representa-
ton in the United States senate it has
not had in years. Senator Allison is
succeeded by Senator Cummins.
The grasp of the old regime has
been weakening for several years. and
the new members will doubtless lend
their influence to the uprooting of ira
ditions and a reorganization of the SEN
ate that will make that body more re-
sponsive to the will of the people.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-03-06
A Distinctive Taft Policy.

There will be general rejoicing
among republican politicians owe the
action OF President Taft in laying
down the hard and fast rule that he
will not interfere in any political
squabble in any state OF assist in a
factlonal war within the party. This
decision was announced by the presi-
dent when he was urged to use the
executive influence in behalf of Sena-
tor Hopkins. who is a candidate for re-
election in Illinois and who, after a
six-weeks' struggle, is still as far from
success as ever. President Taft po-
litely, but very firmly, refused to have
anything to do with the case, and de-
clared that during his term as presi-
dent he would not interfere in the in
ternal party troubles of any particular
locality.
This is a departure from recent
precedent. Mr.. Roosevelt. in his ex-
IRENE anxiety to secure congressional
support for some of his policies, al
lowed himself to be dragged into party
factional fights in different states, and
used his influence to secure the sue
cess of candidates who we're in sympa-
thy with the administration policies at
Washington. The end in such cases
probably justified the means, but the
results we're never happy from a party
standpoint. Executive interference left
sore spots, some of which have not en-
tirely healed.
President .Taft's decision is wholly
commendable and proper. The party
differences within a state are matters
that should be left to the party in the
state entirely. The party within the
state, and not the president, is re-
sponsible for the selection of officials
and leaders that may be made and It
is not the business of the president to
tell the party in any state what 1t
should or should not do in the selec-
ton of representatives at Washington.
President Taft's decision is not only
good politics, but it is very good COM
mon sense.

FRUIT OF BETTER TIMES.
Proof II Improving Times in Building
Line.
Cleveland Leader.

Cleveland Leader.
In ninety-eight cities of the United States
the estimated cost OF the buildings for
which permits were taken out last month
was almost twice as great as the total for
the first month of 1908. The rate Of gain
was 96.7 per cent.
II cannot fairly be argued that this great
difference was altogether the result of the
Improvement in business and the revival
OF confidence In the future OF industry and
trade. Part of the gain must be credited
to the weather. The winter has been so
mild that It has made real estate improve
ments easier than usual. The climatic
conditions have kept land and buildings
more in evidence in the business world
than they would have been If the season
had been severe.
But the larger part of the Increase of %
per cent in the investments in new build
ings and the Improvement of old ones is
the result of recovery from after-panic
conditions. Ii is the fruit of better times.
The change has been general. 1t has af-
fected ali parts Of the United States and
nearly all OF the larger cities. 1t is one
of the best and most noteworthy proofs
that the country is gaining rapidly in bust
ness and industry and everything which
makes for national prosperity.
