A FOItt'E 111 IX fF.NATOR
The author of the fuinous force bill wi
be a im-inher of tho next United States
senate Henry Cabot Lodge was yesterrli;
made the caucus nominee by the republican
members of the Massachusetts Ictfis'iitiiro
As the party lia3 a large majority, thenom
ination is equivalent to an election. In
the caucus ninety-four votes were necessary
for a choice and he received 147, wliic
shows that he was the favorite with little
vigorous opposition. His opponents 'were
such men as ex-Governor John 1) Iong nmi
ex-Congressman William V C'rapo, both
abler and broader minded men than he,
but neither had the whip over the members
that Lodge held.
Henry Cabot Lodge is a brilliant man in
certain respects. His rise has been rapid
His hold on his party is largely due to his
tremendous energy, boldness and partisan
ship. Never did a more devoted republican
mipy a ssit in the bwerbou e of congress,
It wits in the natural order of events'that he
t'lould be senator. Ho has been the practi
cal manager of the republican party ii
Massachusetts for the last eight years. He
is nn excellent debater, a hard fighter, and
a scholar and author of somo repute. Hut
for all this his influence has been pernicious,
and Massachusetts has not done itself
prjud by electing him to the senate. He
may be on n par with su".h men as Chandler,
Aldrich and Hiscock, but his influence will
not extend boyond his own party
When Lodge introduced and fiercely
supported the infamous force bill, be
showed a hick of broad statesmanship, :
sectional spirit, and an egotistical selfish
ncss that merited the disapprobation of the
entire, country, and received it, except
among the republican hero worshippers of
his own stato. Ho is, as indicated before,
an ideal republican, and therefore in that
party a great man. Why? liecause narrow
partisanship characterizes its policy, and
sectional legislation is its joy. It thinks of
the few, not the many. If the cx-Governor
John D Long had been nominated, tho
seat once occupied by Charles Sumner,
after many years of comparative eclipse
whilo occupied by Dawes, would hare
again been hold by a man of whom 1 is
party could bo proud, and whom democrats
as well as republicans would respect. As
it is, Henry Cabot Lodge will be a weak
ling in the senate How can tho aut lior of
tho force bill expect favors trom such men
as Gorman, l-'aulkner and Mills?. Tel
gram. In tho California legislature including
tho nonpartisan from Sun Francisco, tiic
democrats Imve CO votes on a joint ballot.
Sixty one votes are necessary to a choice,
and there are no indications, ns yet, where
the extra voto is to come from. Tho eight
populists with tho one independent from
San Diego havo the balance of power.
Stephen M Whito will Ikj nominated by
the democratic caucus tonight. T V Cator
is the nomineo of tho people's party, nnd
either Chailes N Kelton or 1) M Hums will
receive the republican complimentary vote.
The independent from San Diego has not
s:ud how ho will vote. He was formerly a
republican, but treat eftor'.s are being
made to induce him to vote for White. If
lie should do so, White cf course, will be
elected.
The Democrat believes that If the pmp
os'tlon to amend the assessment 1-nv prohib
iting deductions for indcl tcdnei-s should be
passed by the legislature, the class of people
who now Hcem tooppoje . must, th.- former,

Ihsj sjrroman is authority lor the s'ate
ment that Judge Iioise has changed his views
on the sul,j.-ct of taxation in that he now fa
vors the repeal of the mortgage tax law an
the l.w permitting deductions fur indebted'
ness. This is a radical change, but there are
changes going on all over the state espfc
iallyon the question of de lusions of indent
cdueai. W e are glad there is to he no pariy
poll1 ics in this qu:stlon. There is one djngei
'.hat threatens all efforts at reform, an I that
is that reformers miy ask too many ra. Ileal
hinovati;ns.

In Kansas a republican county clerk , in

vote for that otlice, giving the number of
votes cast for the democrat to the republi

democrat thus securing the certificate of
election to the republican. And now the

Hocks do not grow in the sense that a

The new publications issued from the press

A rather amusing, but poislbly practical
invention, is that which er closes a railroad

who is to throw the s'viich from the main

door can be unlocked only when the switch
