A Foregone Conclusion.

The defeat OF the Stroue measure
was a foregone conclusion, and even
its patron knew this. he forced 1t
to vote with a view of embafrass-
ing the dominant faction of MS o@a
party in the Senate, II is under
stood Tremendous pressure was
brought To bear upon the Senator'S
in the form OF hundreds of petitions
from all parts of the State, and in
the last few days some of the Sem
atofs have been openly threatened
with defeat If they dared exercise
their prerogative and vote again-t
the Strobe bill. Such tactics as this
could have had but one effect upon
men of spirit and courage. and that
was to evoke their resentment
But Democratic Senators were not
influenced in their vote by resent
ment or personal feelings, They
were elected on a local option plat
form and at time when the Anti
Saloon League. the organized force
behind the Strobe bill, was likewise
committed to maintenance of the To-
cal option policy of dealing with the
liquor question, These men would
have been false to their duty, to their
part y@s.ifa- ta-their- constituents had
they voted otherwise on this meas
ure was ill-timed. ill-advised and I'M
fortunate, when one recalls the re-
cent discussions of the subject in
etdent to the Democratic State pri-
mary. We commend these men who
have not been swerved from their
ideas of loyalty to party and to their
compact with the people who elect
ed them and who have never amend
ed or altered their attitude on this
question.
Now that the issue is disposed of
for the present and for at least two
years. we trust that the agitation or
it will he abandoned, at least until
it is an issue in the election of leg
isiators. The entire mem bershfp of
the General Assembly is to be Sc
lected next year. and will enter upon
it's duties in January, 1912. Only
one or two- of the members of the
present Senate were elected last fall
and these to fill vacancies.-Danville

We have never thought that the Fletcher bill

Poor Mr. Rockefeller. He seems to nave more
trouble in giving away his money than he had in
accumuIatine it. But we think that Mr. Bgeiow
is pretty hard on him. Congress aided and abetteo
him in making his fortune and why should II not
help him to dispose of it? Mr. Bgeiow suggests
TO Mr. Rockefeller that he take part OF his fortune
and pay off the public debt But Congress couid
never consent to that for there were no national
debt there would be no government bonds, ana
without government bonds, what would become
OF the national banks!
Again if there were no debt there would be no
interest to pay and if government charges were
reduced to that extent, Congress might have to
reduce the tariff. Then what would the protected
industries do? However, the case is not so bad as
