hat he again enter the race for Senator from wh e had intended to step aside and end his service ublic life Doubtless the Senator will be re-elec whether he desires the position or not.
 The New York Times, commenting under reading MT Norris Yields" paints this timely a picture of the veteran Senator and his position in public service:
 Into the history, ancient modern, of Democratic factions in Nebraska it is unnec- essary to enter. After long struggle Senator Norris has yielded his strong personal desire to the public interest. In a generation of steady and fruitful hard work in Congress he has won the respect and esteem even of those who differ fundamentally with some of his policies. He has written his name high on the statute books in the Constitution of his State and of the United States. In 1885, as since the Nebraska April primary, Senator Burke and his friends urged the .'draftng" of Mir Norris his renomination by means of bipartisan movement. Petitions for entering his name as candidate at the general elec- tion have for some time been in circulation and will shortly be filed.
 What will become of the impetuouS Mr. Terry Carpenter, whose unexpected nomna- tion in the Democratic primary in April so promptly rejected by MT. Burke? Terry used to proclaim his admiration for MT. Nor ris. Now is his chance to show it, though it makes llJJle QlIIerenCe WneJfler or not ne clnRS to a barren honor. Dan Stephens cand- date against Senator Burke for National Com mitteeman, is Norrisite, as the other members of his faction. These severely local quarrels don't amount to much. Politicians may be angry with another for time, but the heat subsidies before election.
 MT. Norris has been welcome guest in the Republican tent for so long that his trans ference to new quarters may seem little strange at first to Republicans MT. Robert G. Simmons, against the Republican candidate for Senator, must be plunged in disappoint- ment MT. Norris out of the way, Terry Car penter for an opponent how could MT. Sim mons help winning? And Republicans few in the Senate that surely no opportunity to elect one should be neglected But MT. Norris has such hold upon the people of his State, his influence and prestige are so great that he can't be defeated. Such, we believe, is the general view in Nebraska. He is more to Nebraska than Mir Borah to Idaho He is man who not only says but does.
 MT. Roosevelt will be grateful for the Sena- tors continuance in public life and for his help in the campaign. And don't forget that Senator Burke, himself independent, is good friend of MT. Roosevelt'ss not the least so when his support is selective and not whole sale The man who voted against the bonus does well not to be passive follower of any body.

people that even the squeaks OF
