BRYAN, IN EDITORIAL,
TELLS CONGRESS HOW
He Warns the Senate and the House
of the "Blight of
Seniority"

Lincoln. Neb., Dec. 27.--Charging that
reactionary Democrats in the Senate ant
House are planning to fasten themselves
in important committees. William j
Bryan in Commoner editorial yester.
day warned the new Democratic Con.
gress against the blight of seniority
"The Democratic party" he says, sis
going TO have another struggle in both
Senate and House over committee as
signments and is again threatened with
the blight Of seniority; that is, it will
be asked to put the ambitions and in
terests of individuals above the welfare
of the party
"The progressive Democrats will now
be in the majority in the Senate eau
Gus. VIII they allow reactionary mi
nority to man the ship? Will they allow
length of service to outweigh sympathy
with the progressive causes
IF it were a personal matter, the new
senators might prefer to yield to the
older ones; but man who acts in a
representative capacity is not at liberty
to be courteous at the expense OF his
constituents. The Democrats of the
Senate owe it to the party to make the
Senate organization represent the pre-
vailing sentiment of the party, and thus
enable it to work in harmony with the
administration. To do this, the rule of
seniority should be ignored. Assignments
to committees should be made upon the
basis of fitness and with view to Civ
ing faithful expression to the win Of
the majority. No Democrat is deserving
of preferment who puts his personal in
terests above the general welfare. If
our party is to have long lease OF
power, it must regard the rights of the
people as paramount"

Without Friction

Washington, Dec. 27.-The Democrats
in Congress day by day are gaining a
clearer. idea as to the plans of Presi'
hdent-eect Wilson. When the leaders
received invitations to go to Trenton
for conference they assumed that the
incoming president desired to discuss
patronage with them; they took it for
granted that he could not have much
on his mind at this time except the
personnel of his cabinet and the contests
for the more responsible positions in
his administration outside of the cab
'inet. Every representative of the par
ty who has made this trip to Trenton
comes back with the story that the
makeup of the new cabinet, the of
flee filling business in general, was the
last subject approached by the presi-
dent elect, and then was brought up
in an Indifferent sort of way by him.
"The attitude of Mr.. Wilson's mind
may be summed up in this statement"
said one influential Democratic senator
who has been over to see him: HE
wants the ad ministration to stand for
something; he wants a great many
things done and he wants them done
we'll The problem with him at this
time is how to get these things done,
