we get the old story that Sheehan will not retire, nor will Murphy
accept the lesson that he is not to dominate progressive Democracy.
OF these issues, that concerning Lorimer and that concerning
Sheehan are immediate. The others may wait. In the one case the
Senators themselves are to decide whether admission to their body
can be obtained by devious and dishonest ways. In the other, it is
for Democratic Legislators to decide what sort Of man shall represent
New York in the great council of the nation.
Both issues are watched by the people, and their Judgment will
Be made known at the next election. If the Senators are wise they
win rid the Senate Of Lorimer. If the Legislators are wise, neither

Much OF this disappointment was due to the presence in the pa.
Of foreign singers unfamiliar with our language, but it appears that
some of the native singers were hardly better able to make the words
understood.
This will doubtless revive the old contention that as an under
standing Of English requires a distinct pronunciation of the consonan>
sounds in all words, it is therefore not a singing language. The
public will remember, however, that comic opera has been sung in
English with splendid success. Since the quips and puns and alitera
tons and all the other verbal whimscaities in which Gilbert delighted
have been rendered ~intcligibly to a whole generation Of audiences
by singers of the music of Sullivan, there is ample reason for beiev
ing that if the grand opera singers will be as careful a. those Of light
opera we shall have American operate songs rendered as entertain
ingly as ballads. 1t is merely a matter of skill.

In the ordinary way of recording events the calling OF the exrs
session will be attributed to the craftsmanship OF the President ant
to the harmony Of view which exists between him and Mr.. Clark
the incoming Speaker Of the House. But in reality the session il
called in response to the vote of the people last fall. Before thai
vote was given, the President had shown himself willing enough to LEI
his administration be dominated by the powers that made the Payne
tariff.
This fact should be borne in mind in these days when 40 man,
changes in the Constitution are proposed on the plea Of giving the
people control of the Government. The people have control now
The extra session will be a proof Of it. The Republican President
and the Democratic Speaker will be equally eager to do the people
will.

GOLDEN PLOVER
Continued nom page nine.)

over the ocean without stop even
for food
On the Pacific side the golden plover
leaves the Aleutian Islands and goes
$500 miles to Hawaii without rest
and winters in the southern hemi-
sphere from the Society Islands to
Australia With this bird it is the
northward trip that is slow, and the
Eastern group crosses the continent
of South America, Mexico, its Arctic
nesting grounds, while the Western
birds go up the Malay Peninsula and
along the Chinese and Siberian sea-
board
Wonderful as is this enormous jour
ney of 10000 or $4,000 miles each
year, there is at least one bird whose
annual trip exceeds the ployers by
several thousand miles. The arctic
tern nests from Maine to within eight
degrees of the North Pole, spends its
summer in the land of continuous day
and in it's migration goes to a region
in the antarctic equally near the South
Pole.
In it's round trip it may cover as
much as $4,000 miles-nearly equal to
flying around the world at the equa-
tor. In all the year the only time it
experiences full darkness is during the
few nights passed in the neighborhood
of the 'ropics, far its summer about
the North Pole is one long day as is
it's winter about the South Pole.
But although this is much the long
est journey made by any bird it is not
in some ways as remarkable as the
plovers, for the tern is seabbird and
can at any time dive into the water and
feed on the abundant supply of fishes
and other marine animals, while the
plover is really land bird, incapable
of feeding at sea. So it has to fatten
up before leaving it's summer home
and make half of its enormous autumn
journey without food.
