A REPUBLICAN REVOLT.

No observant citizen can fail to take
comfort In the first really promising
revolt against the Aldrich dictation.
Senators Nelson and Clapp, OF Mime
sofa, and Senator Carter, of Montana,
yesterday severely denounced the lum
Der schedule. These men evidently
propose to express their opinions in re-
gard to other schedules, notably wool
and glass. We have heard from SEN
ators Cummins and DOlliver. There
Is reason to hope that Senator Root
will refuse to follow the Aldrich lead
srship in all things. No one can say
how far the revolt will 60 or what
will be it's effect. But we think
there can be no doubt of the earnest
ness Of the men who are leading 1t.
The effort is really to break the pow
or Of the Aldrich. Hale-Lodge oligarchy
and to assert and uphold the right of
the West to receive consideration In
the making Of q tariff.
The question really Is whether AL
state in the union. shall of himself
try. The center OF power, wealth and
population is rapidly moving west
ward, and leadership must follow it.
The senator's who are standing out
against, the old dictation correctly re-
flect the feelings OF the people In this
section. We are told every now and
then that Aldrich can get through any
tariff bill that he favors because he
has power to confer benefits on those
who oppose him. and thus is able to
break the opposition. But he has no
power to confer any favors except
such as the senate permits him to ex-
srcise. Undoubtedly trading is now
going on. But still not one of the bar
gains can be ratified except by the
vote Of the senate.
This truth seems to be dawning on
the consciousness of several influential
republican senators. The more com
p1etely it is realized the stronger is
their opposition likely to become. The
revolt Is not confined to the senate. It
has spread. or Is spreading. through
out the country. We may be on the
eve Of great political changes, on the
eve Of new political adjustment. Pro-
tests should not cease because It
seems impossible that they can accom-
plish anything. AS to that one can
never tell. One thing at least can be
accomplished. and that Is the breaking
down of the present despotism.
Senator's Dolliver. Cummins, Nelson,
Clapp and Carter have performed a
great public service. The people
should rally to their support. The
immediate question is whether tho
senate shall be ruled by itself or by
Aldrich. whether Rhode Island is to
say what taxes the rest OF the people
shall pay With the house under the
control Of the speaker and his rules
committee. 1t is specially important
that the senate should be free and
uncontrolled body OF equals. Indian
