V |;enator Hepburn of Idaho, the
ny member of the senate who seems
hty5posed to renew the War Between
,,Jie States, broke out in the senate
Jgain last Monday, and he got
jquashed in good fashion. 1t was
zone of the verv few times in the
5senate when more than some three
or four senator's ever have listened
to Mr.. Hepburn, but nearly every
senator about the capitol-some so
odd-was in his seat and listened
quietly and with apparent seriousness
to a long harangue against the
South. They wore disgusted counten-
ances and at the conclusion they
unanimously sat down on him. The
Southerners sat quietly, except, of
course, JEFF Davis, who came near
destroying the effectiveness of mas
terful stroke on the part of the
Democrats by butting in.
The Speaker was speaking in op-
position to a resolution by Senat or
Bankhead of Alabama to authorize
the war department to lend army
tents and other supplies to the Con-
federate Veterans association for the
Forthcoming reunion at Mobile, Ala,
several Southern senators really
wanted to make reply, but inasmuch
as it was apparent to all that the
Idaho senator was speaking only for
himself and against the decided ap-
proval of the other Republican sena-
tors, it was determined to ignore the
remarks.
Senator Bankhead arose and there
was general expectancy that some
thing was going to happen, but the
Alabama senator merely remarked,
HMr. President, 1 know that the sem
ator from Idaho feels better now, and
1 ask for a vote on the resolution"
Every Republican senator, except
Hepburn, voted on roll call with the
Democrats in favor of lending the
tents to the Confederate veterans.
There was general desire on the
part of the Democrats to have either
Bailey or Money reply to Hepburn.
Either one of these would have made
. telling reply without using any
language discourteous to the general
run OF Northern people, whose sena-
tors had signifed their intention of
voting for the resolution. There is
small disposition on either side here
to fight the 59-year-ago war over at
this late day, and such men as Hey-
burn, mighty few in number are con-
sidered as only jokes.-Zach McGee,
in Columbia Is. C.) State.

The following editorial para.
graph from the Ironton Register,
while written in satirical vein,
nevertheless bes:ows quite COM
pliment upon Governor Hadley:
Our noble Governor has again
placed himself under the lime-light
this time with project to re-
district the state, senatoriaIly, by
constitutional amendment. O, but
Hel hey is resourceful and versa
tile! He will make you an issue
while you wait, and his Press Bur-
eau-right there in the Mansion
will do the rest before you can bat
your eyes. ResourcefuI? Well,

zon draws not from so ample a
reservoir as fountain-heads the
Hadleyan output.

conceivers and denouncing it rs Il
partisan plot without parallel in
the history of the state. Resort
ing to the expediency OF securing
a change 10 the state constitution
to favor a partisan purpose is not
altogether new in Missouri, al
though the Democrats may pre-
tend that the Republicans are re-
sponsible for the innovation of
their present proposal. When the
Democrats, under the Dockery adj
ministration, reached the point
where they had to make good the
state school funds that they had
squandered or confess their inabili-
ty to do 80, they resorted to the
trick of changing the constitution
to get their party out of the hole.
How successful they were is now
matter of history. With the aid
of their somewhat peculiar mot to
say reprehensible) election meth.
ods in the large cities of the state
they succeeded in having the pro-
position carried aud loaded upon
the taxpayers perpetual interest
bearing debt of between four and
five million dollars. In the pro-
posed amendment to redistrict the
state there is nothing that can be
called unfair; it is, in fact, intend
ed to correct partisan outrage
that the Democratic party has long
imposed upon the people of MIS-
souri,. Although the voting popu-
lation of the state has been closely
divided between the Democratic
and Republican parties for a de-
cade or more, and in the past two
presidential campaigns the state
was carried by the latter party by
good majorities, the Democrats,
through their unfair gerrymander
of the state senatorial districts,
hold the upper branch of the legis
Iature by nearly two to one-23
Democrats to 13 Republicans.
With this hold upon the senate the
Democrats are able to block every
move under the present constitu-
tion for a fair division of the senate
between the two parties. and the
Republicans now propose nothing
more than to take this question be-
fore the people direct. Such
method has nothing dishonest or
startling in it; and twas to relieve
prevent such abuses of partisan
power that led to the adoption
of the initiative and referendum

prosecutions we are seeking ia
remedy the defect by adding more
legislation. which often has the
tendency to complicate the situa-
ton, rather than relieve it. 1t is a
contest between the people trying
to regulate private enterprise by
law and private enterprise combat
ting this nterference of the peo
pie. 1t indicates the spirit which
permeates our social structure un-
der our present system of political
economy. On the other hand we
view our great posta! system oper-
ating entirely free from all entan-
clement of law; our courts are
never occupied in the endeavor to
regulate the postal system. Regu-
latory legislation applying to this
organization becomes at once the
rule for its guidance. No costly
court proceedings, or warning up
on the enforcement of these rules,
follow their adoption. TIE people
own the enterprise and regulate It's
operation. The contrast between
the two conditions here presented
are so forcible that they protrude
themselves upon the notice of the
most casual observer who panses
to view and compare public owner
ship with private exploitation.

In attempting to discredit the
Republican party through the
present tariff law. our Democratic
exchanges perpetrate some glaring
Inconsistencies of thought. which
even our esteemed neighbor, The
independent. is not altogether in
nocent of. The Independent, like
most other Democratic party or
gans which pretend to see in the
AIdrich Payne tariff the issue that
will lead to Democratic success III
1912, has not failed to keep up he
parrot-like reiteration that ;hat
tariff has practically been The ,uie
cause of the present high cost Of
all commodities, yet in Its issue of
last week it sounds different note
altogether, and intimates that an
increased tariff duty from Is cents
n ton to $1.5O ton on tiff has not
succeeded in raising the price of
that product to point as high as
the price was some years ago, un-
der the old 75c duty. We might
ask, after all this protest against
higher prices on part of our con-
temporary, why complain when he
finds the tariff has not succeeded in
causing rise in the price of tiff
to point even equal to that which
obtained before the rate was
increased! Our friend seems to
struck himself lick below the belt
and knocked all the wind out Of
his tariff argument in criticizing
the tariff on tiff. just reflect a
little on this point, and try to To-
cate yourself again. As for the
increased duty on tiff being with
out results, we put in respectful
disclaimer, even though the miners
may be getting 20 cents ton less
and the tiff buying factors Is cents
ton less under the present tariff
than they were getting few years
ago under the old duty rate. 1t
should be recalled tnat only recent
ly there was no demand for tiff at
all, and miners, factors and manu-
facturers all had the ''nothing do
ing" sign hoisted. Now, as the
Independent admits. the miners
are already getting within 20 cents
Il ton as much for their tiff as they
got some years ago before the bot
tom dropped out Of the tiff market,
it must be that the tariff has had
something to do with the renewed
activity or it plays no part what
ever in the rise or fall in the cost
of any commodity. And while we
are discussing this question we
would like to ask the Independent
| what Mr.. M. r. Smith was con-
tenn lIating doing to the tiff market
when he as Democratic member
from this district some years ago
introduced II bill in congress to
raise the duty on tiff from 75c a
ton to $500! If an increased
duty operates to keep the price
down, Mr.. Smith must certainly
have had it in for the tiff miner.
