On more than one occasion Senator
Borah has taken exception to allu-
sions to "leaders of the Republican
party in the senate" In doing so the
Idaho senator disclaims any title or
right to be considered a leader but
he objects to any body Of self-consti-
tuted "leaders" speaking for the Re
publicans II the senate. The last oc-
casion when he adverted to this sub
iect was at the time of the appoint
ment of Charles e. Hughes as an In
vestigator of the aircraft imbroglio.
Now, II Is fact that some Repub-
leans felt the selection of Mr.. Hughes
was shrewd move on the part OF
President Wilson that would tend 10
shut off any possible partisan critl-
cism that could be made In regard to
aircraft production, especially If the
findings should be that there had
been no misuse of money or crimi-
nal action. Some newspapers pub
lished stories to that effect and attrib-
uted the comments to Republican
leaders"
Senator Borah repudiated the idee
that there was any Republican objec-
ton to the selection of Mr.. Hughes.
A little later Senator Smoot remarked
that Mr.. Hughes selection "was as
remarkable as II was admirable"

That which was once sacred
tradition and an unwritten law In
the United States senate Is now
only memory. The tradition was
that new senator should not take
part in the debates until he had sat
at the feet of the seniors for at least
one session. The tradition was shat
tered when II new senators entered
the senate - years ago. and 1t has
been put upon the scrap heap by the
progressive movement which has In
troduced into the senate many men
jects of public interest. And so the
tradition Is but a memory.
Old hahitues Of the senate realized
this fact when. within two or three
weeks after taking the oath of office,
Senator Lenroot of Wisconsin took an
active part in the discussion of the
rivers and harbors bill. and even be-
fore that he had shown determine
ton TO do his duty by objecting to va
rious pet measures of senators, which
on account of senatorial courtesy but
which have somewhat dubious repu-
tntion In the halls of legislation. What
Is an interesting fact, In connection
with Lenroots activity, is that he
was listened to by other senators and
attention given to what he had to
say.
