sat up late at night, the constitution
to pursue, and DER his grievous wrongs
to muse. He knew his duties to a
hair; he would not even dust chair,
or stoke the stove, or close door
he wasn't paid to do that chore. His
nature had grown harsh and sour
through fear that he might work an
hour for which he would not draw
his pay; he brooded DER his rights all
day, and dreamed about his rights in
bed, until his rights went to his head
Then Quimper exercised his right and
fired young James one balmy night
He said 81 gave you every chance to
flourish, prosper and advance, but all
your brains have turned to whey, and
all your heart has turned to hay A

In his speech defending Mr.. Lori
mer, Senator Bailey. of Texas. said.
Have we fallen to such a low estate
in the United States senate that we
must stoop to the earth and kiss the
ground our constituents walk upon?"
No one expects senators to kiss
the ground their constituents walk
upon" but it is an old-time democratic
notion that senators, as well as repre-
sentatives, should show due concern
for the well defined principles for
which they stood prior to election day,
1t is also an old-fashioned democratic
notion that when man discovered
tas Lorimer must have discovered, that
bribe money was used in eieoting him
to office he would not wais to be re-
moved from Office (proyided he were
innocent) but would retire in defense
of his own honor.
No, Senator Bailey, the people do
not ask senators to kiss the ground
their constituents walk upon" They
do ask. however, that they refrain from
licking the boots OF trust magnates and
doing the bidding OF systems that prey
upon the people. .-Commoner
