Oregon PLAN IN MEAN ASIA.
Can the FairvIew Pole Draw the Sem
atOrial LIRhtninEE
Cleveland Plain Dealer.


Cleveland Plain Dealer.
The Introduction into the Nebraska legis-
lature of a measure for the establishment
Of the Oregon plan of choosing United
States senators virtually by direct popular
vote is generally characterized as an effort
in behalf of Mr.. Bryan. The legislature,
being democratic and disposed to be friendly
toward the sage of Lincoln, is expected to
enact the bill. The result, IL the prophets
judge wisely, will be that Mr.. Bryan, thrice
defeated for the presidency, may be elected
to the senate in 1910. to succeed Senator
Burkett, republican. The new law would
permit Mr.. Bryan to canvass the state as a
candidate for the senate and 70 reap the
benefit Of the popular will regarding him,
regardless OF the complexion OF the legisla-
ture chosen.
Mr.. Bryan has been proverbially u~ntortu-
nate-if that is the Word-in his political
career in never being in a position to get
the benefit OF his occasional partial victo-
ries. Thus In 1896 and 1903, when he won
the vote OF his own state and carried the
legislature with him to victory, neither
of the Nebraska senatorships were due to
expire, while in 1900, when he failed in his
own state and his legislative ticket like
wise was lost, a senatorship was at stake.
Had he won then and carried the legisla-
tive ticket with him he would In all proba-
bility have been chosen senator in place OF
c.. II. Dietrich. or, had the legislatures
elected In 1896 or 1905 been empowered TO
elect a senator, the chances are that the
Lincoln man would have been given the
toga. viii Mr.. Bryan's luck change under
the Oregon law. or will he remain the one
eminent figure in American political his
tory which the lightning always manages
to avoid striking?

SCOPE OF THE SPECIAL SESSION.
The report that the special session
OF congress will not be confined to
the consideration OF tariff legislation,
hut will be called by a proclamation
so broad that matters Of general leg
i%slation may be taken up, may or may
not have Mr.. Taft's warrant, but the
need for early legislation on topics
other than that of tariff appears to
be admitted by the party leaders. The
present congress will expire by limit
alton on March 4 and will leave un-
done many things that the public has
demanded and conditions seem to
make necessary. Among these are
additional legislation on railway rate
matters, enlarging the powers of the
/ Interstate Commerce commission, the
postal savings bank system and posi-
bly, a general revision of the currency
question.
In addition to these matters of
domestic Importance, a deep convic-
ton exists that our relations with
Japan may reach an acute stage be-
fore the time for the meeting of con-
gress in regular session next Deem
Der. Just what the occasion for this
acute condition may be Is not clear
to anyone, although all of the authori-
ties agree that the present situation
is far from satisfactory. The agita-
ton over the local troubles between
Japanese and the citizens of Califor-
mia, the sudden clamor for the loca-
ton of a fleet in the Pacific and the
energetic efforts for speedy increase
and improvements of the Notifications
at San Francisco and Honolulu all
tend to strengthen the growing sus-
picion that the relations between this
country and Japan are not as peace
full as surface indications suggest.
Whether the Japanese-American ques-
ton is really approaching a crisis may
not be determined for an indefinite
time, but the possibility of 1t may fur
nish reason for the organization OF all
the committees of the two houses at
the special session, instead of requir-
ing only the formation of the finance
committee of the senate and the ways
and means committee of the house,
which alone would be necessary in
case only tariff legislation were to be
considered. Even if no other business
than the tariff were to be transacted
the appointment of these committees
would pave the way for active work
at the regular session, instead of hav-
ing the month Of December spent, as
is usually the case, in the making up
of the house committees.
Objection may be made that the at
tempt to transact general business at
the special session would open the
way for a long session at which other
subjects might be injected into the
congress with the result of accom-
plishing but little in the way of tariff
revision. The history of tariff legis-
lation shows that most of the work
is done by the committees and there
appears to be no good reason why the
whole membership Of congress may
not be engaged, during tho considera-
ton Of the tariff bill, in at least fran.
ing and considering matters for finaI
disposition at either the special ses-
sion or at the regular session to fol-

Roosevelt at His Best.

WdbHInBIOn sur.
In his appeal for the square deal for the
Japanese in California, the president is at
his best. He states the case like a patriot
and a statesman. His advice should be
taken. The people in California cannot
in this matter, or in any other matter,
afford to fly in the face OF the national
interests and obligations. Should any action
of theirs injIre the country they, too,
would suffer. In business of such moment
as they now have in hand they should be
glad to be advised of national opinion and
should be guided by il.
