LORIMER WHITEWAsHING.

HE fight over Senator Lorimer appears TO
- have just started Reports from Washington
say that the whitewashing by a Senate committee
has not had the desired result of giving the Ill-
nois politician a clean bill of health
The report Of the committee of the Senate had
no more effect upon the opinion of the country
regarding the matter than had the Ballinger
whitewashing. The Progressives of course have
seized on the Lorimer incident to further their
plan to have constitutional amendment adopted
so that Senators may be elected by direct vote of
the people. 1t is argued in support of this move
that no such scandal as that which followed the
Lorimer election could happen While sentiment
is undoubtedly increasing in favor of direct cleo
tion of Senators, it by no means follows that
under that scheme money could not be used. The
amount that Uncle Ike" Stephenson is said to
have expended TO control the primaries of wiscon-
sin was pretty huge sum-

BIG suM WITHOUT REsuLT.

HE official report of the expenses of the cam
\ paign in Wisconsin which had for its object
the overthrow Of Senator La Toilette Battle Bob"
as he is called, shows that more than 100000 was
used. The standpatters Of that State, encouraged
by President Taft did everything that money and
brains and corporate influence could do to defeat
the Senator. Vice-President Sherman attended
the standpat convention and returned east with
the story that the insurgent movement was wan
ing.
Despite all the efforts TO defeat him, the forces
of La Toilette won great victory and the Sena
tor now enjoys the patronage. President Taft
knows more than he did before the election, and
so docs Mr.. Sherman, for that matter But it is
no wonder that the doughty Wisconsin Senator
did not rush into the arms of the President when
he returned TO Washington

DISTURBING THE POT.

HE GENERAL ASSEMBLY has surely made
= very bad beginning by wrangling over the
election of officers. There had been hopes that the
present body would be much better than Legisla-
lures OF the past, and that 1t would be body
which would legslate for the benefit of the State
1t is not apparent why the lower counties should
insist upon having the presiding officer of the
House. There may be some hidden motive behind
their move. 1t may be that Mr.. Moore is not
wanted by certain elements, that he is not agree
able to the special interests. The interests work
under cover and their hand is often not seen OPEN
y on the political chess board, but its effect is
felt just the same
The Dover Index thinks that the tie.up is due
to well directed effort of the special interests
to seize control Of the committees With control
OF the committees in their power they could throt
Gle any legislation not desired by them.

ANOTHER wall.

N A lugubrious article headed Railroads un-
fairly treated" the Every Evening makes
mention of a brief prepared by eminent attorneys
which shows the unfairness and injustice of the
governmental interference with the railroad busi-
ness of the country. The Every Evening should
now make editorial the scoring that the
Interstate Commerce Commission gave the
Pennsy for unfairly discriminating in the distri-
button of cars in the coal regions of Pennsylvania
That might even things up.
The attitude OF injured innocence which the
hVery Evening assumes when engaged in the prin-
eapa task OF its existence the knightly and night
- defense Of the railroad companies and the put
ing OF angel wings on them must make even the
railroad men themselves laugh. II is really rich,
these long continued and awful walls of the Every
Evening about the railroad companies Soon we
shall expect to hear how horribly the State off,
cias and the Legislature of Delaware are treats
ing the Delaware Railroad Company-bless it, YOU
don't have TO make football rush for a seat on
one of its trains as you did formerly. Really if
every one we're as prosperous and as happy as
the railroad companies are, there wouldn't be
much trouble in the world Well managed the
Pennsy is doing good business and pleasing the
people on the whole with transportation facilities:
we should think the walls of the local evening
newspaper would give the Pennsy hypochondrssis,
and it would begin TO think that something SER
ious really was the matter with il.

Boston Transcript.
The coming generation, in our cities
at least, is likely to have a more
lively appreciation Of the value OF
fresh air than the one that has pre-
ceded. Within the past three years
nearly fifty cities have established
open-air schools for the benefit Of tu-
berculous school children. Providenca
began 1t and other municipalities have
followed on, though not all have de-
yeloped the idea to the same extent
Boston, for instance, might profitably
carry II farther than she has. Paw

least one Open-air room in every

TRANSFORMATION Of senate.

New York Evening Post.
The Transformation Of the United
States Senate has been accelerated by
the death of Senator Elkins, one Of this
few remaining conspicuous member:
of the majority party in that body rep
resenting the older generation ane
holding over into the Sixty-Secont
Congress. Besides its effect on the
Republican management in the State
Senator Elkins' death will percepu'
bly, strengthen the Democratic posi-
ton there, and accentuate the pos
session of something like balance o.
power by the progressive or insur'
gent group of Republican Senators
The Sixty-First Congress opened WIZ
the Republicans in possession OF very
nearly two-thirds of the seats, there
being so Republican Senators, as
against 50 Democrats; the Sixty
Second Congress. as at present IN,
dicated though Montana is somewhai
in doubt-will have only so Republic
can Senators, as against AZ Demo
Gratis. This is a fairly near approach
to equality. Both of the Senator'S from
West Virginia will be Democrats,
while both were Republicans in the
present Congress; the other States In
which the Democrats have gained q
Senator at the expense of the Repub'
licans are Maine, New Jersey, New
York Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, Ne
braska, and Montana. This represents
a wide geographical distribution
making a change in the aspect Of the
Senate such as seldom occurs between
two successive Congresses. But how
much the change will signify depends
on the use the Democratic Legisia-
lures make of their opportunity, es'
pecially in States Of such critical im-
portance as New York and New Jer-.
sey.

ADVERTISING WILMINGTON.

IT He WILMINGTON BOARD OF TRADE is en-
Il gagged in the very commendable effort 10 adj
yertiSe Wilmington and to make il better known
throughout the country. To do this money is
needed and the Board is trying 10 secure small
sums here and there TO be devoted to advertising
purposes.
One Of the plans is to place signs along the
railroad approaches of the city calling attention
to our large industries and to the fact that Will
mington is conspicuously on the map. IL is more
than probable that several Illuminated signs will
be secured, as the Wilmington and Philadelphia
Traction Company has generously offered to sup
ply the electricity free. Several handsome signs
whether illuminated or not would serve an ex.
| client end of calling attention TO Wilmington.
u If enough money for the purpose could be Sc
ttsszr-a.-H rTisingtea woSd do some magazine ad-
vcrtiSpg
The Board Of Trade has taken up this question
in a determined manner, for it is realized that un-
less we shall make efforts TO bring people to Will
mington, the city will lag in the industrial race.
The plans of the Board for the New Year also
have in mind the gathering OF data TO be instant
" available when inquiries are sent regarding pro-
perties for sale. There should be and need be no
conflict between the Board Of Trade and the real
estate men in this matter, but both should work
harmoniously together.
The leaders Of the Eoard Of Trade believe that
the advantages of Wilmington are such that there
should be no necessity for offering inducements
IN the way of subscribing stock for industries
which propose to locate If the citizens will take
certain amount Of stock. In most instances such
Factories not desirable but what are wanted
are strong concerns able Ito hoe their own road
