THE INSURGENTS OF CONGRESS
Causes For Which They Are
Fighting and Side Lights on
the Leaders Of the Movement

First he had to convert the state
of Wisconsin, and when that job was
done to his satisfaction he. started in
to convert the entire nation. This
work is still in process. At about the
time La Toilette was making the VOL
verene railroads and regulars jump
sideways Albert Baird Cummins was
causing the stand patters to see red
with his Iowa idea. The careers of
these two progressive leaders have
many features in common. Both had
to fight the machine in their own
states, both were elected to the gov
ernorship for three terms, and both
while serving as governor were ele-
waited to the United States senate
Both are effective speakers, and both
deal with facts rather than figures of
speech. The difference in their per-
sonal appearance and manners, how
ever, is as striking as the resemblance
In their careers. Both are fighters,
but Cummins is courtly and has gained
the sobriquet Of Handsome Albert"
while La Toilette is pugnacious, with
bristling name.
Other senators that have broken out

liver, who did not always insurge, but
was once tame enough to eat out of

tive when Cummins built back fire
behind him; Albert J.. Beveridge of In
diana, who has always been an orator
and is becoming a statesman; Joseph
L. Bristow Of Kansas, who drove the
crooks out Of the postofice department
and is ready to perform the same
service for any other crooked bunch
that gets in his way; Knute Nelson
and Moses Edwin Clapp Of Minnesota,

so soon after Bryan, make us wonder
If the Platte country turns out nothing
but smooth faced young orators who
yearn to do things to the corporations:
William Edgar Borah Of Idaho, who is
such handsome and mild looking
man that no one would dream of his
going up against the fierce and crafty
Aldrich, the lowering Hale and the
astute and high proved Lodge, and
Coe I. Crawford Of South Dakota,
who, it is said, is going back into
camp. This is the list Of senate insur-
rectos up to date, but no one knows
when it will be enlarged. The powers
that be are not always sure of putting
a finger on Senator Burton Of Ohio,

"HERE are several questions,
pertinent and impertinent, that
arise concerning the insurgent
movement. The political stu.
dent asks, What is an insurgents"
The general public, always interested
in personalities, inquiries, "Who is an
insurgent" Uncle Joe Cannon, in
more or less bewhiskered and unsteril-
lied language, rises to the question,
why is an insurgent?' 10 answer
all three queries adequately would re-
Auire several books. But as | have

body else would have time to read
them we will have to boil it down.
10 begin in the good old ordinal and
ordained way: Firstly, what is an in
surgent? 1t depends on who is giving
the answer. II it were Robert Marion
La Toilette he would doubtless reply,
can insurgent is the noblest work of
God," having in mind, perhaps, one
particular insurrecto If it were Can
non who was giving the opinion But

seminating certain kinds of words, and
l have no desire to get either myself
or the editor into Jail. Either the La
Toilette or Cannon idea would prob
ably be biased. 10 take a perfectly
dispassionate view, an insurgent is one
who wants to change the rules of the
house in which he is serving; also the

to revise the tariff dOwnWard-empha-

wants to do it to all the tariff that

My own view of an insurgent is that
he is an honest man who by some mis-
take broke into congress. The other
members do not know what to make
of him. He knows what he would
like to make of himself, but the
speaker won't let him. That is the
whole story. The insurgent wants to
