New York and the Senate.

If Theodore Roosevelt and Charles +.
Hughes should contest two years hence
Tor instructions for the seat in the Senate
now occupied by Mr.. Depew which would
win? The answer to the question depends
upon the man To whom 1t is addressed
If he Is a sympa thizer with the republican
machine in New York he will confess his
uncertainty but predict that the total
vote at such a primary would be small
IT would be difficult to arouse popular
interest in either man sympathiZer
with the reformers will shake his head.
hut say that the choice of either would
ne a great improvement over any choice
the machine would make in the old way.
lie may not be strictly either a Roosevelt
or Hughes man, but he is certain to be
most decidedly anti-machine.
There is clearer expression respects
the qualifications Of the two men for the
office. Many of Mr.. Roosevelt's admirers
doubt his usefulness for the work of the
Senate He is too hasty and eXplosive-too
impatient of opposition-too prone to jump
70 conclusions He would be a balky
horse in team--refusing to pull when his
mates were ready, and pulling Ineffective
ly like mad when all the others were rest
ing.
tION- hughes, on the OIneF mana,
would. it is agreed. make an ideal senator.
His legal training his temperament, his
industry. his exceptional powers of state
ment. would place him at once in the
front rank in the Senate. BY sending him
10 join Mr.. Root in that body, New York
would achieve such distinction there as
she has not known in years.
In many states geographical lines run
in senatorial races. One senator is taken
from the east, the other from the west; or
one from the north, the other from the
south. New York has never made a point
of ths-at least not since the civil war

state, and. later. Conkling and Herman

lived within a few miles of each other.
the former at Albany and the latter at
Troy. The present senator's are both
from Greater New York. Mr.. Plat keeps
his voting residence upstate, but resides in
the metropolis.
IL the geographical rule were applied,
both Mr.. Roosevelt and Gov. Hughes
would be barred. The one lives in the
city, and the other just outside at Oyster
Bay, and the city will be represented by
MIR. Root. This would send the senator
ship upstate, where senatorial timber is
not conspicuous. But there is small reason
to expect the geographical line to be run.
Now that she is aroused on the subject of
the fittest men for Office New York will
probably give Mr.. Root colleague
worthy of him and herself, without regard
to just where his tent is pitched

Col. Guffey Again on Top.

Col. Guffey of Pennsylvania is again
member of the democratic national com
mittee. The election took place yesterday.
and the vote was unanimous.
'srime at last sets all things even.' 1t
was at Denver last summer That Col.
Guffey was deposed from the committee.
He had been chosen in the regular form.
but was Objectionable to Mr.. Bryan, who
at that time was cock of the democratic
walk Take him down." said Mr.. Bryan.
and down he came. Col. Guffey, who had
gone to the national convention full OF
fight. had all the fight taken out of him
by one blow.
Nobody rejoiced more than Gov. Haskell
of Oklahoma, who was high in Mr..
Bryan's graces, and a prospective Secre-
tary Of the Treasury. 'Cio back to your
oil tanks" shouted the governor, as Col.
Guffey withdrew from the convention
hall The reference was to the reported
large holdings of Col. Guffey in Oil stocks.
Col. Guffey made no response.
Today, six months later, witnesses re-
versaI of fortune as respects the governor
and the colonel The former is now out
of favor and the latter in favor. The
former was forced to retire from the
presidential campaign which he had
helped inaugurate, and is at present In
hot water at home. The latter is once
more at the head Of his party at home,
and there is no one to say him nay. Evil
IDENTIFY the Pennsylvania democrats have
ceased to take counsel Of Mr.. Bryan.
The peerless leaders treatment of Col.
Guffey was illogical and highanded. He
was posing as champion Of the square
deal, and ousting Col. Guffey on the
charge that the latter had been tyrannical
at home in matters relating to Pennsyl-
vania's representation at Denver. And
yet among Mr.. Bryans ieutenants at
that very moment was Roger Sullivan of
Illinois, whom four years before MT
Bryan had characterized as a highway
man in politics. So that it was not Col
Guffey's democracy so much as his anti
Bryanism that was offending. Had Col
Guffey come to Denver an ardent Bryan
man he would not have been molested.
The incident may be taken as an index
to Mr.. Bryan's character as a political
leader. Amiable as he is as man, he
Is as hard as nails in politics. When in
control of situation he makes men bend
to his wishes, or breaks them. Roger Sui
livan bent, and was pardoned and taken
back into favor. Col. Guffey would not
bend, and for a time was broken.
In the White House this spirit would
have shown itself in all of its power Mr.
Bryan as President would have had his
way with his party. He would have rec
ognized only those obedient to his will
All opponents would have been driven to
the wall.

He thinks he ought to do.
He says he thinks our land is bout
AS great as it kin be,
An never has the slightest fear
1t won't continue free.
He never calls nobody names
When he hands out advice;
Whate'er he says is to the point
Plain, simple an precise.
So he must stick to private life
An let ambition slip
What chance has folks like Uncle jim
