A LETTER.

Washington, March 30.-The
support that Senator Thomas S.
Martin, of Virginia has been
giving President Wilson in the
Senate on the Panama Canal
tolls fight emphasizes more than
ever before the fact that his is
theastrongest personality in the
upper house of Congress. Ac.
cording to the political experts
here, Martin is the real leader OF
the United States Senate today.
How eminent and commanding
is his position in that body, can
best be portrayed in the words
applied to him by progressive
Senator from the west. In speak.
ing of Martin, he said:
tom Martin is the dominant
and compelling personality in the
Senate. Much Of his power
comes from his intellectually.
Much of it is the result of his in.
dustry. But the greatest part OF
it is explained by the sureness
of his Judgment and the integrity
of his character. He is, above
all other things, strong man.
That is the thing about him that
most impresses other Senators.
SIN order for a man to carry
influence with him into the leg.
islative chamber, it is Essential
that he be tlnsted. Men do not
follow the bidding or the leader.
ship of one whose motives are III
any way open to question. That
is the foundation of Martins
fame and fighting ability. Sen
ators have confidence in him, anc
this confdence-which is carried
t remarkable degree in Mar
tins case-is caused by the fac
that his purposes are high ani
that never, under any circun1'
stances, is. he, tempted to follow
devious ways in attaining his
ends.
I'm fact, Martins method o.
dealing with Senators and of in
duencing large matters of legis
lation is simplicity itself. Il
seems to reduce itself to his TAX
ing his stand in a committee room
or in the middle of the Senate

and fearless tones:
=" I believe this or that should
be done. There it is if you want
it. If YOU don't, you're wrong.

comes down to- But he is able

try, his incessant energy and his
inevitably wise conclusions.
Moreover, he has found from
long experience that the only
way to do business with men is
on the frank, direct, simple plan.
And, because truth and integrity
appeal to everybody, Martin is
regarded as skillful adjuster of
difficulties and. as man who gets
along with all kinds of human
nature. And back of this also is
that So old confidence. In the
Senate, you know, a man who is
trusted has all his battles half
won. n
1.-The Democratic party owes
to Martin of Virginia more than
to any other man its cohesiyeness,
its harmony and its efficiency as
a legisIating organization. The
value of his opinion, the influence
of his character and the beauti-
full results of his work make him
the harmonizer and the guiding
brain of his party
In addition to his activity on
the floor of the Senate and in all
conferences Of his party on big
public questions, Senator Martin
does a tremendous amount of
work. He is chairman
IF the powerful Committee on
Appropriations and is member
IF exactly half "a dozen other big
committees. =
