HANSBROuGH'S VIEW OF ELECTION

Washington Post: Former Sen H. c.
Hansbrough, for eighteen years a mem.
Der of the senate, arrived in the city
yesterday. He took an active part in
the campaign as a Wilson Republican,
both in North Dakota and Minnesota,
and is much pleased with the result.
Speaking OF the remarkable turning
over in his section OF the country. he
said:
Il place no credence in the stories
coming from the west pretending to
explain it's Wilson pluralities.
at last to understand the situation. 1t
was revealed to us In the recent cam
paign more clearly than ever before.
For ever SO long time we have been
going to New York for almost every
thing, including our presidents. or, to
be more specific, we have been obliged
to ask New York whom we should have
for president.
Until Mr.. Wilson came to our relief
we also had to go to New York for
our money, even for our own hank de-
posits whenever it suited New York tc
lock them up for gambling purposes.
compared with these two larger
items, going to New York for our raw
ishing styles and our eastern culture
was a very small matter.
Very naturally, with the habit de-
veloped into a necessity, we wearied OF
It, 1t was too much like going a long
ways from home to sit in a poker game
In which the cards were marked. .Ant
the ridiculous part OF 1t Is we knew
they were marked.
so finally we decided to play the
game with our own cards, in a region

Probably there has never been a

1t looks as though a great many peo-

a great many of them are only partly

Lost by Six Votes.
WASHINGTON, June 3.-The second |
of the big preparedness measures, a |
naval Appropriation bill larger by many
millions than any ever before consider |
ed in congress, passed the house late
yesterday almost unanimously. 1t car
ries building program for the next
year OF five battle cruisers, four scout
cruisers, 10 destrOyers, 80 submarines
and 1870 acrOplanes; provides for a gov
|ernment armor-plate plant; authorizes
an increase of nearly 1900 enlisted
men, and appropriates u total of $269,-
900 600.
As passed, the bill is in substantially
the same form as framed by the naval
committee. Only a few amendments
were adopted during a week of debate.
A final effort by Republican leaders to
have the measure recommitted with in
Istructions to add two battleships, two
| scout cruisers and 10 destroyers, was
beaten, ls9 to 1873. The fight for an
increase in the building program, at
least by the addition OF two battle
ships. will be renewed in the senate
when the measure is taken up there late
this month and administration leaders
believe it will he successful.
