House and conference committee was
appointed to adjust the differences,
which it is said will take less than two
weeks. President Wilson will sign ii
and the year of jubilee will come. The
Senate vote was concluded at 5:43 Tues
day afternoon. 1t stood Al to 81. Twelve
of the members paired, two were absent
and there is one vacancy, thus account
ing for the full membership of 90.
To their eternal discredit be it said,
two so-called Democrats voted with the
Republicans against the bill, Randall
and Thornton, of Louisiana, who OPP
posed free sugar Senator LaFollette,
of Wisconsin, Progressive Republican,
and Senator Poindexter, Progressive,
voted with the Democrats amid grea'
applause.
President Wilson expressed his graft
ication over the passage of the bill, for
the people and for free business, adding
that it and the passage of the currency
reform bill which he is sure will be &C
complished with equal directness and
loyalty to the gene raj interests, the
62rd Congress will pasa into history with
the unrivalled distinction.
Under the splendid leadership of the
the President and other consecrated
men, the Democrats are proving that
they can do things and that the promis-
es they made the people were not made
TO be broken. All honor to them. The
toiling millions will show their gratit ude
and join in glad acclaim that legislation
is at last in their interest and lot in that
Of favored few.

A CORRESPONDENT takes us to task Tor
our article with reference to Judge
Spears probable trial for impeachment
in letter appearing in another colomn
of this issue. Our friend proceeds I'M
der mistaken statement of the charges
against Judge Speer. His addiction to
to the drug habit is only smlal count
in the indictment against him. The
principal counts are gross favoritism and
attempted bribery, together with nepo-
tism of a very rank variety. He has
done some good work, we admit, but IL
guilty of the charges, that counts for
but little. He may not have been APP
pointed a Federal judge because he
turned TO be Republican. but the facts
are against him. He was not appointed
by Republican President until he SO
became. We have no objection TO a
man changing his politics as often as he
wishes. but there is suspicion. when he
is appointed to Office when he makes a
change.
OF course the result was the same, but
the Confederates mentioned did not join
the Republican party in 1896. They did
support what was known as the McKin-
ley Aid Society, the Palmer and Buck
ner ticket. But one of the men named
sought Office afterwards, and none of
them ever profitted by the temporary ir-
regularity. We still maintain, even at
the risk of having 'Ichabod" inscribed
on our tombstone. that man who boxes
all points of the political compass al d
lands in fat Office, is capable of doing
the things charged to Judge Speer.

1T has always appeared TO US that if
man wants to give tips he should do SC
oct of his own pocket, but the Govern
ment has been paying them for men
travelling for it, So far as the postoffice
department is concerned, this petty graft
will be cut out, except in the case oil
tips to train porters. Why they should
be excepted, however, is not apparent.
Postmaster General Burleson has issued
an order that no tips but those shall be
allowed after October l, and that en-
ployees shall not use the piratical taxi
cab at Government expense. High pric-
ed hotels must be avoided and such lux
uries as the pretty stenographer is ex-
pressly forbidden. There are indica-
tions on all sides that abe Government
is going TO be run on business principles
and not for the benefit of its employees.

MosT Governors find that it is a dan
gerous thing TO call a Legislature into
extra session, because of the uncertain
ty of their action and the heavy cost it
incurs. Gov. Hooper, of Tennessee, is
new at the business and was therefore
not afraid to tempt fate by converting
the body into extra session Immediately
after its adjournment, to enact such leg
islation as he desired. Alas for his
hopes! He doubtless wishes now he
hadn't done it, 1t organized by break.

The Lexington Herald is opposed t.
the piecemeal change in the State Con.
stitution and calls for convention to
change most of its provisions, which are
not in keeping with the spirit of the
times. II is waste, it thinks, to put
new wine in old bottles, when new bot
ties are procurable. The great trouble
about Constitutional convention is the
danger that it will not improve matters,
while creating further grt at debt on
our debt-ridden State.

ecutive of the country's greatest city.
