Constituencies in this country do not want their elected representatives to crawl pros trate before a speaker and beg the poor privilege of addressing the bouse on measures affecting Oregon or-Kansas. A constituency through its chosen representative la a sov ereign unit in the legislative body, and Is not the creature of a boss who' rules as king. The country' will is not the mere will, of two self-appointed bosses, but the will of the various electors tea expressed by re spective representatlvea. . It Is be cause, th been so gresslonal bosses, their henchmen and their pawns have in actuality been supreme and the electorates ignored that this revolution is on. It augurs a country-wide repudiation of boeslsm, an overthrow of bour- boniem, stronger . hold by the masses on measures and men, and a restoration of the ancient landmark in the party of Lincoln. It is a movement that bode iU for the vo taries of conventions, assemblies and the other devices and processes by which the Cannon and Aldriches sit in the seat of the mighty, for it is through direct primaries that the original leader of insurgency were lifted into, the national senate. not dodge the Intelligence of 80,000,- and Interests and opposed to pneclal 000 people.;', Mr. Elkins' Intimation privileges for the few is "unconsti was that the tariff bill is to be held tutlonal" as the average Henatoiial guuuuxs oi increasing prices, if well lawyer sees It.
