/ thought to the problems under consid-
GRAFTON than has he.
In a single term of service Senator
Page has, in addition to less important
committees, been assigned to Agricul-
ture and Forestry, Banking and Cur
rency, Education and Labor, Indian
Affairs, and Naval Affairs, all OF
which rank high in Importance, and
on each of which he has done excep-
tional work. Should the Senate again
become Republican, he would un-
doubtedly become chairman of the
Committee on Agriculture and Forest
ry, one Of vast importance both to the
nation and to the individual states, and
a position which was held by Senator
Proctor at the time Of his death.
In this connection | want also to
say, what is not generally known, that
the Committee on Indian Affairs de-
mands more time and attention, pre-
sents more complex problems to be
solved, is more exacting in its de-
mands upon the time and patience and
integrity Of its members, than almost
any other one of the Senate commit
tees. 1t has been customary to assign
one New England Senator to this
committee with the thought that, as
a representative of state unaffected
by Indian legislation, perhaps his SER
vice would be of special value in pro-
tecting both the nation and the Indian
wards of the nation against frauds
and loss. The late Senator Platt of
Connecticut stood for years as a rock
of defence against enroachments upon
the rights of both. When he, by
reason of other public duties, was COM
PEELED to relinquish that work, | was,
at his request, assigned to the vacancy
thus created. Later my time was de-
manded in other directions and Sen
ator Page took the laboring oar and
has spent nights as well as days of
faithful but inconspicuous work in
perfecting Indian legislation.
But | want to call special attention
to his work as member of the Com
mittee on Education and Labor. He
early gave attention to the subject of
vocational Education and, as some
question has been raised as to the
iegree of credit to which he is en-
titled, | do not hesitate to say that
when that measure becomes a law, as
t surely will, he will be as much en-
titled to credit in securing its adoption
IS Senator Morrill, was entitled to
redit in connection with the establish
nent of the Land Grant Colleges. Il
senator Page worked substantially I
lone upon this measure for a period
4 two or three years. He gave it his
ime, his effort, and his means. He
ut himself in touch with educators in J

No man in the United States Senate
has been more regular in attendance
more devoted to his work, and more
painstaking in the discharge of his
duties, than Senator Page. He has
brought to the Senate all of those
characteristic activities of mind anC
temperament which gave him leader
ship in the business and politiea
circles of Vermont.
His general characteristics can be
best described, perhaps, by referring
to a recent conversation had with 8
distinguished Democratic Senator who
made this remark
"My observation has been that the
Senate is made up of two classes of
men, those who feel it their duty to
speak on every question, but who are
quite frequently wrong both in their
premises and conclusions, and second
ly those who speak less frequently,
and never unless they have something
of value to say, but who by reason Of
careful study and patient investiga-
tion are almost invariably right in
their action"
Senator Page belongs in the class
last mentioned,
Those who have watched the course
of the two great parties as represent
ed in the Senate must have observed
that the Republican party has been
composed of men who have done their
own thinking and maintained self
independence. Caucus ac-
ton is not tolerated among them.
On the other hand, the caucus sys-
TEN has long been in vogue in the
Democratic party, and its binding au-
thority upon its members has been
declared superior to their individual
conscience and judgment. This has
been conspicuously so under the pres
ent administration. That party since
coming into power has devoted itself
almost exclusively to the work of Sc
curing the adoption of purely admins
tration measures, dictated at the
White House, approved by the eau
,us, and pushed through the Senate by
sheer force of numbers.
In the meantime, vast volume of
business, less spectacular in character,
)ut vitally important to the welfare of
he nation, has been under considera-
ion by the appropriate committees, at |
he meetings Of which the Republican |
trained to the Importance of
his work, have been faithful in their
attendance while, to a lamentable de-
,ree, the Democratic members have
'een conspicuous by their absence.
When il is remembered that the char
eter Of the work done by the Senate
ommittees is so fully recognized by
hat body that more than so per cent
t the measures fayorably considered
re adopted upon their recommenda-
ions, and without debate, the import
nee Of individual attention to com
littee work cannot be over-estimated
These observations are preliminary
0, and intended to give force to the
that no Senator Of my ac-
uaintanee has more consistently at
ended meetings Of committees Of '
.hich he is a member than Senator 1
age, and no Senator has given more {
srious, laborious investigation and Z
