NORRIS TALKS OF ELECTION
Nebraskan Sees End of Machine Rule

Illinois Member Says IL Was Just n

Anything-Views of Other
Members.

WASHINGTON, April 9O.-Not since the
political campaign began have the DEM
ocrats been in such jubilant mood as they
were today over the result of the New
York election. They gathered early on the
floor and there was everywhere a spirit
OF felicltation. The republican leaders de-
clined- to attach any significance to the
deal. The Insurgents took other views.
Representative Norris OF Nebraska, one
Of the insurgent leaders, said;
1T is simply an uprising Of the people
against machine rule and means that the
people will stand for It no longer. 1t is a
local matter in New York, but similar con-
ditions prevail through the country and
similar results will ensue"
What does It mean to this. house?" Mr..
Norris was asked.
1T means that the members who are
here because Of machine politics-both re-
publican and democrats-should be able to
ste the end they are coming to. They won't
be here much longer" was the reply
Representative Hamilton OF New York,
another insurgent, thought Aldridges de-
feat in Rochester was largely due to his
personality and what he was known to
stand for.
"Cannonism was also an issue" said Mr..
Fish. Aldridge was asked whether he stood
for Cannon or not and he declined to an
swer The people answered for him"
There was incidental reference in the
senate to the election, by Mr.. Gallinger.
1T was just a skirmish. it doesn't mean
anything" said Mr. Boutel of Illinois. His
statement was typical Of republican express
sion. Among the democrats and insurgent
republicans there was a greater variety OF
Views.
Representative Francis Burton Harrison
(democrat) OF New York believed it marked
the overthrow Of regime, nationwide in
its extent.

Saved by FirefIies.

The gigantic tropical fireflies which
swarm in the forests and canebrakes
of most of the low lying West Indian
islands once proved the salvation of
the city of Santo Domingo. A body of
buccaneers, headed by the notorious
Thomas Cavendish, had laid all their
plans for descent upon the place, in
tending to massacre the inhabitants
and carry away all the treasure they
conveniently could, and had actually
put off their boats for that purpose
AS they approached the land, however.
rowing with mufiled oars, they were
greatly surprised to see an infinite
number of moving lights in the woods
which fringed the bayou up which
they had to proceed, and, concluding
that the Spaniards knew of their ap-
proach, they put about and regained
their ship without attempting to land.

JOHN CHINAMAN 10
ABOLISH HIS CUE
Noteworthy Proof Of Advancement
Made by Him Afforded by Edict
Effective This Month.
(By Union Associated Press.)

Hong Kong, March 3.-One of the
most noteworthy proofs of Chinese
advancement in the ways of modern
civilization is afforded by the imperial
edict, effective this month, which per-
mits Chinese to cut off their queues
without losing cast Formerly a
Chinaman without queue was looked
upon as an abandoned creature, es-
pecially in the interior towns. where
they were often subjected to gross
indignities.
The queue was introduced into Chi
ma by the Manchu dynasty nearly
three centuries ago. 1t Is said to
have been originally suggested to the
Manchus by their sense of gratitude
to the horse, that animal having
played a great part in the Tartar con
quests. In short, the "pigtail' was a
method of establishing a relationship
between human beings and horses.
