Tor the farmer i'm tariff legislation. Sen
ator Clay favored the enactment OF a law
establishing postal savings banks, but OPP
posed strongly certain features OF the re-
publican bill which was later enacted into
law.
Senator Clay was well known for his
rugged honesty and his industry. Al
though he was a strong partisan. he
weighed the merits and dement's of all
the big public questions that came before
the national legislature. and based his
votes on what he thought was best for
the country. His desire to get on the
right side OF every question made him a
great student, and there were few ma
tional issues of recent years upon which
he could not speak authoritatively.
Took Part in Many Debates.
Senator Clay's voice was frequently
heard i'm the debates on the floor of the
Senate. He made his points clearly,
logically and briefly. lie seldom INDUCED
in humor in public debate, but he unin-
tentionally caused a big laugh In the
chamber last winter when the railroad
bill was under consideration. He was dis
cussing it's relation TO the Sherman anti
trust law. and he repeatedly referred 20
II as the anti Sherman law.
II was in committees that Senator Clay
did much of his effective work. and last
winter, for much OF the time, he was the
only democratic member of the commit
tee on appropriations who was able to at
tend its meetings. Despite his illness. he
scrutinized every item of the bills that
called for the expenditure Of nearly
billion dollars. Last winter he came out
strongly I'm favor of economy I'm govern

speeches in advocating it.

How Lorimef Vas Elected

Senator Hopkins carried the state of
Illinois in 1905. He was therefore the cam
didate of the republicans for senator. But
he is a regular and a standpatter and
some republicans would not support him.
The democrats selected in the primary
Lawrence Y. Stringer as their candidate
for senator. but the democrats did not
have a majority of the legislature on joint
ballot and they could not elect Stringer.
A long deadlock followed and in the
end William r. Lorimer a Chicago poll
tician and member of Congress, was
elected by sudden union of democratic
members with some republican members.
Why the democrats went over to Lorimer
is now explained by the testimony offered
In confessions of democratic members of
the legislature before grand juries.
The entire business was discreditable.
Lorimer himself is not a credit to any
party or in any state. and when demo-
Gratis leave their party to vote for such
man they at once become subject to sus-
picions. 1t now appears that some of
them, at least, went over to Lorimer for
= price.
Bad as Chicago politicians long have
been, they had never before attempted
anything SO bold as this Lorimer piece
OF business. 1t is to be hoped that the
grand 1uries sitting In Springfield and
Chicago will do their whole duty. They
should probe the matter to the bottom
On the very surface it had bad appear
ance from the outset, and no doubt exists
rs TO the rottenness under the surface.
