L0RIMER OUSTED;
DEFIANT TO LAST
Senate Vote of SIS to 28 Drops
First Member for Bribery.
FINAL SCENE WAS DRAMATIC
Ends Three Day Speech in Silence
and Awaits Verdict-Strides Out
Firmly-EIection Invalid Be-
cause Of Corrupt Methods.

Washington-The Senate ousted
William Lorimer of Illinois on the
ground that his election was tainted
with corruption. The vote was SO to
%. In taking this action the Senate
recorded in history the first case
where a member of that body has
been unseated on charges of bribery.
as a marble statue while one by one
the votes were cast which were to put
an indelible stain upon his life.
When the clerk of the Senate an
nounced his seat vacant the Illinois
Senator arose and with head erect and
unfaltering step walked out of the
chamber. Many in the crowded gal
leries watched this final act with tears
streaming down their cheeks, and on
the floor the scene was equally tense.
The ending of the notorious case was
as dramatic as any stage manager
could have wished, and Lorimer him
self passed out of public life courage
ously, defiant to the last.
Lorimer almost collapsed from ex-
haustion after he had withdrawn from
the Senate chamber. A physician was
hurriedly called to his room in the Sen
ate office building, but he said that
rest was all Mr.. Lorimer needed He
has been in poor health and virtually
left a sick bed to come to Washington
to plead in his own defence.
These are the Senators who voted
in favor of ousting Lorimer:
Ashurst. Bacon, Borah, Bourne,
Briggs. Bristow. Brown, Bryan, Bur
ton, Chamberlain, Clapp, Clark of Ar
kansas, Crawford, Cullom. Cummins
Curtis, Dixon. Fall. Gardner, Gore
Gronna, Hitchcock. Johnson, Kenyon,
Kern, La Toilette, Lea, Lodge, Martin.

Sanders, Shively, Simmons, Smith of
Arizona, Smith Of Georgia, Smith of
Michigan. Smith of South Carolina,
Stone, Switzerland, Swansea, Town
send, Watson, Williams and Works;
total 55.
Those who voted against the resolu-
tion and in favor of Lorimer were:
Bailey, Bradley, Brandegee, Burn
ham. Catron, Clark of Wyoming,
Crane, Dillingham;, Fletcher. Foster,
Gallinger, Gamble, Guggenheim, John
ston, Jones, Lippitt, McCumber
Oliver, Paynter, Penrose, Perkins.
Richardson, Smith of Maryland,
Smoot, Stephenson, Thornton, Till
man and Wetmore; total. 2S.
BY the adoption of this resolution
Mr.. Lorimer passes out of the records
of the Senate and has never officially
held a seat in that body.

HOUSE |MPEACHES
JUDGE ARCHIBALD
Jurist Must Now Be Tried by
the United States Senate.
ONLY ONE VOTE OPPOSED
Five Legislators Will Prosecute Is
Charges Against Commerce Court
Jurist Before Senate-Latter
Body May Not Act Till Fall.

Washington. House of Repre-
sentatives adopted by vote OF 222 TO
l articles of impeachment against
Judge Robert w. Archibald OF the Uni
ted States Commerce Court. Repre-
sentative Farr of Pennsylvania cast
the single vote against the bill OF I'M
peachment. Farr is lifelong friend,
who has all along voiced confidence
in Judge Archbalds integrity.
OF the total membership of the
House in their seats only nine voted
present" These were ex-Speaker
Cannon, Representatives Burgess OF
Texas, Dalzell and Olmsted of Penn.
sylvania, Dwight of New York, John
son of South Carolina, Parran OF
Maryland Rucker OF Missouri and
Sparkman of Florida.
Only three members had spoken in
the Judges defense.
The scene now shifts to the Senate,
which will sit in judgment in the case.
While there has been a disposition
voiced in the Senate to postpone the
trial until autumn, Chairman Clayton
of the House Committee on the Judi
ciary and one of the prosecuting man
ayers, said he thought the Senate will
soon take up the impeachment.
Senator Clark of Wyoming, Repub-
lican, chairman of the Senate Judi
ciary Committee, and Senator Sim
mons of North Carolina, the Demo
cratic leader, expressed the view that
the Senate will abide by Judge Arch
bald's wish either to have an immedi-
ate trial or be allowed time to prepare
his defense. Among some of the Re-
publican leaders it was suggested that
while the case will be formally pre-
sented to the Senate. that body may
not do more now than to determine
the date of the trial. take recess un-
til November and then proceed with
the hearing, with probability of COM
pleting the case before the Christmas
holidays.

STATE ORGAN
GIVES ACCOUNT
OF Republican Convention
At Louisville.
BOTH TAFT AND ROOSEVELT
Leaders Are Under Suspicion
For Methods Used in
Party Affairs.
CHANCES FOR SUCCESS SLIM

The Louisville Herald, the Repub
lican party organ in Kentucky, hal
the following to say of the Repub
lican State convention last week.
Passive resistance was the polio,
adopted by the Roosevelt leaders IL
their attitude at the State conven
ton. Falling far short of ma.
jority, after the Credentials Com
mittee had passed upon the con.
tests, they decided not to bolt. In
stead they will carry to Chicago. a
protest against the whole procedure
in the State, alleging that sufficient
fraud and disorder existed at the
county district conventions to viii
ate all that was done. II this pro-
test is needed, it will have the eff
feet of leaving Kentucky without
representation in the National AS
sembly.
If the. charges being made by both
Roosevelt and Taft leaders can be.
substantiated, then Kentucky might
better go unrepresented than to
have Chicago delegates supporting
either candidate concerning whose
title to represent the State the
greatest uncertainty would exist.
The situation emphasized the utter
worthlessness of the antiquated
system now employed for securing
a popular verdict in the nomination
of men for the Presidency. The rec
ommendation of the minority of the
Committee that the
convention be adjourned without
action, and properly protected
primary be held throughout the
State,was based on sound judgment
and the square deal principle. But
1t was rather too much to expect a
"deliberative body" such as that at
Phoenix Hill to take this view of it.
So President Taft gets the Ken
lucky delegation,D certified By
the constituted authorities, with
Senator Bradley as its leader.
We could wish it went to Chicago
under happier auspices. The can
didate is all right, but the meth
DDS that have wan for him in the
State are not above suspicion.
The convention itself was a tame
AFFAIR. The decision of the Roose-
velt men to accept the inevitable
left 1t without incident, Once the
report OF the Credentials Committee
had been adopted by an overwhelm-

When a man aceumulates mil
lions nowadays and dies rich, he is
lauded to the skies as successful
man. No doubt he was-from a
business standpoint. But that ia
not all. What did he make OF life
for the hundreds who worked for
him as employees and helped him to
accumulate his millions? Did he
divide with them as he went along?
Did he even pay them good wages?
There is more in life than the mere
accumulation Of wealth. We owe
something to our worthy fellow
man, more especially II he Is an aid
to US In any material way. The
really successful man Is the one
who tries to make life a success
with all whom he meets along the
way, from the days OF his first EN-
cheney to the nantling shadows OF
