SENATOR SMITH AND HIS LORIMER
VOTE

THE contest for the seat of Senator
John Walter Smith in the U. s. senate
has been opened by the Hon. Isaac Lobe
Strauss with the hottest sort of hot
stuff, wherein (chaperoned by one Will
liam H. Anderson) he charges Senator
Smith with all sorts of high crimes and
misdemeanors, chief amongst which are
the Senator's vote for duty on lumber
and his vote for the acquittal of Lori
mer.
All this is no particular funeral OF
ours, except in so far as every public
man is entitled to fair judgment at the
publics hands. We have no love for
Senator Smith politically, and castigat-
ing him for his political performances
has been one of our pleasant pastimes
on many platform in this State. But
we cannot, in all fairness, ssanu rur CEN
sure of his vote on Lorimer. That vote
was one of the bravest, decentest, fair
est things he ever did. He Is perfectly
accurate in saying that Lorimer was not
tried by the Senate, he was LYNCHED
by It. The men who tried him ACQUlT-
TED him-the first Senate Committee by
a unanimous vote, the second committee
with only one Dissenting vote. THESE
were the men who heard all Inc evidence,
examined and cross examined the wit
ness, and who in the light of that evil
dence could not, on their oath as judges,
vote for Lorrimers conviction and ex-
pulls. on. Lorimer may have been guilty
of the things charged against him, but
certainly no sufficient evidence was ever
produced to find him guilty. In the pro-
gress of that trial we spent many Tong
winter evenings reading from the Con-
gressional Record every particle of the
evidence, every word of testimony by
the witnesses We believe no man ac
quanted with that evidence, could con-
scientiousiy vote for Lor,mer's convic
ton. THE COMMITTEE WHICH HEARD
THE EVIDENCE COULD NOT AND DID
NOT The men, who in open senate
voted to convict and expel him, did so
1--WE believe) in cowardIy compliance
with public clamor and newspaper
threats. They cared more for their poll
tical fortunes than for their consciences.
What did the populace who cried for
Lorimers conviction know about the
evidence, except the garbled extracts
furnished them by the newspapers? What
did newspapers, which demanded his
extinction every man who did not vote
for that conviction, know about the evil
dence? How many of their busy editors
do you suppose ever gave any adequate
time and attention to that evidence?
But to this clamor Of the populace, to
this newspaper demand and threat, many
a Senator yielded-against the facts and
with what we should call a mighty neb-
ulous conscience.
Senator Smith did not so yield and is
now being censured by folks who know
nothing of the fects in the Lorimer case
and who would pillory man for voting
according to the facts" instead of ac-
cording to the mob
We are not bit interested in whether
Senator Smith wins his fight for the
Senatorship or not; but we are interest
ed in defending him, or any man, from
an ignorant and unfair attack. That
much is due to public discussion

HIKERS NEED COACHING

THE mixers" for woman's suffrage
seem to have been somewhat Crouch
ed by their stay in Elkton one night
last week. Pretty Phoebe Hawn wrote
a letter to the Brooklyn Eagle" that
self-same night, in which she speaks of
her stopping place as the funniest lit
tie hotel yet" and characterizes Elkton
as 1.-The blot on the map. We think her
lunch at Newark disagreed with her,
being led to that thought by her remark
in the same letter that the Newark
lunch could only be called lunch by
charitable disposition" and "cause we
had to pay rs cents for It," But maybe
1t was the rs cents more than the lunch
that was hunting pretty Phoebe's feel
ings and spelling her temper. Come,
come, dear child, If you are going to win
votes for women" you must carry a
better temper and wiser tongue.

suits. The method that l have found
most successful is the use of formalin

equal parts milk and water.
''In this proportion the mixture seems
