CLOSE CONTEST FOR SENATE CONTROL

1t is by no means impossible that the death Of
Senator Hepburn Of Idaho may have very important
effect on the political complexion Of the Senate
after March 4.
Senator Hepburn was a standpatter Of the stern
est sect. His colleague, Borah, agreed with him
about few matters Of State policy; but they were
both Republicans, and they had a most efficient
working arrangement for management Of affairs at
home, under which Borahs Progressive friends and
Heyburn's standpat supporters managed to stick
together and keep the State Republican.
With Hepburn gone, it is uncertain whether this
arrangement will hold together. Borah was a can
didate for reelection by the legislature the coming
winter Now that legislature confronts the necessity
Of choosing two Senators, to take places that have
been occupied by Republicans; and the chance OF
the legislature going Democratic is probably consd
erably increased by reason of Senator Heyburn's
death.
Idaho may not unlikely determine whether the
next Senate will be Republican or Democratic AL
most certainly the results in the three States oi
Illinois, Colorado, and Idaho will decide for each o
these States has two Senators to elect.

MAJORITY RULE AND THE JUDICIARY

The Scribner press has brought out recently a
volume by William L. Ransom Majority Rule and
the Judiciary, which deserves careful consideration
by two classes. Of people. Those who believe that
there is justification for the widespread dsaffection
with the general attitude Of our judicial establish
ments ought to be familiar with this book, because
ii presents in serious thoughtful, scholarly manner
the grievances that have to attract attention.
Those who entirely satisfied with present judicial
conditions, would do we'll to know what Mr.. Ransom
has set forth, because in some form or other they
are going to be called upon to consider and answer
these allegations
Precisely what the recall Of judicial decisions
means is made clear. More than that, il is shown
that every constitution in the land in its provisions
for its own amendment, has, in fact, contemplated
the possible necessity not only for recalling decis
ions, but for recalling constitutions. Numerous in
stances are cited, of recalling judicial constructions
OF constitutions, when those decisions imposed con-
ditions of harmony with the spirit Of the times
in which they were made. Courts, in overthrowine
. legislation because it in conflict with funda
mental law nave recommended that the constitution
should be changed.
The difficulties which, under rigid and practically
Interchangeable constitution confront efforts to adus
law and administration to the needs of the times
are made plain by many illustrations. Mr.. Ransom
has brought together fund of useful information
and subjected it to a remarkably clear simple and
even to the lay mnd-understandable analysis

A PRIMARY TEST FOR MASSACHUSETTS.

The leaders of the Progressive party in Massa-
chusetts have challenged the Republicans and DEM
ocrats to unite in having Statewide joint primary
to nominate successor to Senator w. Murray Crane
The Senator early in the summer, announced that
he would not stand as a candidate again. The egis-
lature is likely to be close indeed, it is one of
several legislatures throughout the country that have
been accounted in danger Of deadocking for long
time over the Senatorial election.
State primary would have to be arranged by
the organizations Of the political parties; if all three
of them should unite in it, without doubt the results
would be excellent. There is small danger of the
legislature rejecting the indicated choice of the
voters because the tendencies of the times all favor
such measures. The Oregon plan has stood severe
tests in Oregon two years ago, in Nebraska, practi-
cally all the Republican members Of the legislature
voted for Democrat for Senator simply because
he had received the popular majority designation at
the polls.
The Senate after March 4, next, is certain to
be very close in party division number of legis-
laures will contain members representing three or
even four political parties There is prospect ahead
for series Of deadlocks, corrupt deals, and finally
for bunch Of States to 60 in part unrepresented
for considerable time. All this is certain to be
highly demoralizing both in Washington where il
will affect national legislation, and in the States
where it has been the invariabe rule that legsla
ture is Of little account to its State so long as il
has Senatorial election hanging fire. These con-
ditions, indeed, will give a great impetus to the
movement for ratification Of the direct elections
amendment to the Constitution; but, meanwhile, tht
country ought not to suffer. The Massachuset.
proposal should be acceped by all parties and made
the basis for determination by the people of thei
u Senatorial choice.

How Grady Won.

Henry Grady, who has lived up on
Florida avenue since Columbus
Heights was an ant-hill, dined at the
expense of his longtime friend,
James Donovan, the other evening.
Donovan is also pretty we'll ac-
quainted in that section, and few
days ago the two fell to discussing
who was the better known man.
"Ill make 1t the dinners" said
Donovan, that II we walk down
Fourteenth street from u street to
Thomas circle, more people will stop
and speak to me than to you"
"It's a Co." replied Grady, stop
and speak, you said. You take two
of our friends here to keep tally and
I'll follow along shortly with two
more of them"
Donovan started down Fourteenth
street with two friends, as score
keepers. Reaching Thomas circle
they waited some half an hour fol
Grady. At length he appeared-bu
coming very, very slowly, for, a
almost every step, somebody haltet
and spoke to him.
When he approached the waiting
Donovan, that gentleman looked a
him with disgust. Around Grady
head and covering one eye and ca
was a great surgical bandage. Will
one arm, heavily swathed, was hang
ing in a sling. In his other hand h
carried cane and limped when h
walked. He looked as II he had fall
en- out of an aeroplane. OF course
even the most casual acquaintanc
had stopped and spoken.
"Oh, 1t was all right" said Dono
van. who Is true sport. "If Grad
had the wit to think of that schem,
he's entitled to the dinner"

GOING AFTER" SENATOR BEvERIDcE.

The Clapp committee was put at its present task
by curious combination Of standpat Republicans,
disaffected insurgents, and regular Democrats, all
moved by the common desire to injure Roosevelt
and all confident that somehow they could accom-
plish that much, at least.
The results, item by item, have been curously
contrary to expectations. Instead Of miring down
Roosevelt in scandal about the campaign fund OF
1904 the investigation has borne out Roosevelts
statements in every detail and 1t is the Parker cam
paign of that year that dragged in the mud Parker
charged that Roosevelts campaign was syndcated by
big interests; the event proves that Parker, with
S450,O00 from Ryan and $250,000 from Belmont,
was the most thoroughly syndicated candidate that
ever aspired to any office.
So il has been all the way through. 1t was going
to be shown that millions Of Harvester money were
being spent this year for Roosevelt. Instead it has
developed that the President Of the Harvester Com
pany gave literally to help nominate Wilson, and
that there was so much concern about the political
effect il it should become known, that there was
serious consideration Of returning the money. The
Harmon and Underwood campaigns Of this year were
traced back for their inspiration to the same Ryan
treasure chest that has been so generous OF dona-
tions in the past
Small wonder that under the goad Of such a
series Of disappointments the Roosevethating ma
jority Of the committee is prepared for guerrilla ac
tics; that Senator Beveridgs is to be hauled out OF
his Indiana campaign and made to testify about mat
ters that do not properly within the purvew Of
the committees authority. Mr.. Beveridge is making
strenuous campaign as the Progressive candidate
for governor Of Indiana. 1t is conceded that he will
beat the Republicans badly in the State He is grow
ing stronger day by day. The most effective thing
that could possibly be done by way Of opposing him
would be to keep him of the stump few Of the days
that remain to him in the campaign. So he is to be
sent for: and for what?
| To explain why under the heavens he should have
returned $4,000 that the national COL. .mittee sent
him to help in his fight in 1904
1t is not surprising, Of course, that gentlemen
who have been able to view with equanimiy the con-
fessions of Ryan and Belmont that they gave the
dover of princes to Democratic campaigns, should
wonder that Progressive, having once got his hands
on bunch Of perfectly good money, should ever re.
turn dollar of it, Manifestly, the spectacle Of q
piece Of campaign money being returned as moi
needed, is nothing less than a defiance Of all the
rules of this game. Mr.. Beveridge is the real male
factor He is violating all the traditions. He should
be summoned to the stand, and made to confess all
