THE NEW LEADER IN THE SEN.
ATE

Tue election of Senator Martin, OF
Virginia, as the leader of the demo
cratic minority in the senate cannot
'e taken as q happy choice. Senator
4ait,n belongs &c tie extreme con
seryative wing of the party, and. in
the senate. his alignment has been
with the reactionaries of the repub-
lican majority in matters relative TO
the tariff, especially. The democrats
nave just been restored to control of
the house after sixteen years of exclu-
sion from such responsibility, and the
principal charge that has Teen out
upon them is the revision of the tariff
for the purpose of relieving the bur
den Of excessive cost of living laid
upon the people by the exactions of
protection. 1t is certain tlat the
house will frame a tariff bill and send
at to the senate for enactment, and
tAat in the senate the republicans-at
least the old line members of that
party-will oppose its passage. If the
progressive repu, licans hold the cour.
ase OF their convictions and are sin
cefe in their pretentions, it might Re
possible, by a combination of the
democratic strength with their forces,
TO carry through some measure of
tariff relief at the present session of
congress upon the ineitiatiye OF the
ouse democrats. Whatever the prog-
poets OF practical results may be.
however, certainly the democratic
house should have the whole hearted
support and cooperation Of the 6emo.
cI"ts III the senate toward the ac,,
complislment Of a reform for whicij
the country looks to the democrats
ana 10 which end it clothed their
party with authority. The action of
the democratic senators in choosing
for t1eir leader a senator who, In the
of the Payne-Aldrich bill,
was almost invariably to be found
voting for the Aldrieh schedules. is
not particularly promising of the SYM
pathy and support that are desirable
u the expected propositions of the
democratic house for heavy reduc-
tons in the tariff schedules.
Some resentment against Mr.. w. ].
Bryan has been evinced because he
is supposed 10 have inspired the op.
position to the election of Senator
Martin as minority leader 1t is al
ways easy to stir resentment against
Mr., Bryan, and, if the senators WHO
voted for Senator Martin will put
their action down as due to that and
repudiate ty their voices and their
votes, during the coming fight on the
tariff, the idea that they are in any
way disposed to compromise the ira
ditional attitude of the democratic
party toward the tariff question. Mr..
Bryan and his friends will not quar-.
rel with them. 1t would have been
better. however, if the democrats of
the senate had gone into tie tariff
ilsht which they will have TO make
under the leadership of a tariff re.
former of better proved quality than
Senator Martin, of Virginia.
