THE SENATORIAL BATTLE.

The result Of the senatorial battle in this state at
the primaries last Tuesday does not indicate Mr.
Burke S strength as much as it indicates Crawford2s
weakness.
It is not c~ontended, even by Mr.. Burke's close per-
sonal and political friends, that the people have been
wholly satisfied in every respect with Mr.. Bnrkess
course in congress. 1t would be expecting too much
to imply it. But Mr.. Bnrke's integrity has never
been questioned. His great political asset is his eour-
age. and his steadfastness of purpose.
1t is freely admitted that Mr.. Burke has
been consistent throughout. He has never wavered,
never wobbled, never shown the white feather IN
the face Of threatened political danger. He has pre-
ferred defeat to qualification. 1t is these sterling
qualities that have won him lasting friendships, It is
because OF them, in part, that he has achieved a victory
in the face of what seemed like msusmountable OBJ
stacles.
But the great fact that had to- do with Mr.. Burkess
triumph may be traced to what may APPLY be described
as Mr., Crawford's inherent weakness. He has wob-
bled and Wavered. He has been with special inter
ests7 in the United States senate and he has been
against them. He has denounced Aldrichism on the
stump and has co-operated with it in the senate, and
then has gone against it on occasions.
We do not think that Mr.. Crawford is Intentionally
what may be termed q double player We do not

'Thcatment of monopoly, is the heading OF an
editorial in the Dcs Moines OIa( Register, ''If we
must have monopoIicS, declares the paper, let them
be government monopoIieS.' This seems to be a grow
ing idea. If private capital is to be permitted to con-
troll monopolies, the danger of oppression becomes too
great. Private capital is human, III a sense. 1T IS
controlled by human Instincts and huntan ambitions
and human desires. so, too, should be the case were
the monopoly a government affair, but in the latter ease
there would enter the clemcA Of sclr-prrServatiou-
the desire to make the monopoly serve the interests Of
its investors, which would be the public.

THE NEW v A

The disclosures with reference to the New Haven
railroad deal indicate that some men high in financial
authority in the management Of the company deilber-
ately went to work to beat the stockholders out of a
large part of their holdings.
In other words, regardless Of the merits of the case
Or the rights Of either the public or the small holders
OF stock, thigh financiering3a resulted in putting into
Che pockets Of a few Of the leading men connected with
the company profits to which these men We're not en-
titled.
The result is that the New Haven property is on
the verge of bankruptcy, with no assurance that those
who profted through the unfortunate transaction will
be made to disgorge their ~ill-gotten gains.
The stockholders are not alone the sufferers. The
public which is compelled to patronize the railroad
likewise feels the effect Of the nefarlous scheme by
which there was saddled upon the company obligations
which the future generationssare expected to pay and
Tor which stvalue received was never considered,
It may seem drastic, but, nevertheless, the country
as q whole is likely to accept the view Of Senator Nor
ais Of Nebraska that the deal was nothing more nor less
than robbery.
It will not speak we'll for our civilization It no way
can be found to compel the bene6ciarles OF the unholy
Transaction to reimburse the parties whom they have
defrandna.

FAMILY SCRAP is OVER
Now that the republican family scrap is over, the
republicans will need Il little rest before they buckle
on the arnor for the fall contest.
The stand taken by the members Of the so-calIod
majority ticket to the effect that they would loyalty
support the winning candidates, regardless Of the out
come Of the March primaries, set the seal OF unity
upon the course Of the party in the state for 1914.
Governor Byrne, Senator Crawford, Royal John
son, and, in fact, all Of the candidates., had pledged
themselves to support the party nominees as shown
by the primary election on the 9th instant.
Mr., Burke, in ii published statement wherein he
urged both factions to refrain as far as possible from
the use Of vituperation in order that full-hcarted sup
port Of the ticket might be made the easier following
the primary. declared himself uncquitocally for the
ticket to be nominated.
1t would seem. therefore, that the republicans of
the state are in better shape for a fall campaign than
they have bcen for many years.
Seven months cIapse between the primary and the
regular election-plenty Of time for soreness either
to develop or to vanish.
The old axiom that many are called but few are
chosen has been brought home to candidates within
the past week as it never was before.
Never mind about who got licked remember that
there's another day.
If there is anything in the ''record' that has not
been proved let somebody please find IT.
No man is sure of election until the votes are count
