TTHE AMENDMENT to make the president of the state
senate, governor, in ease of the disability or death of
the ehiet executive, is a hair-baked measure, which should
be deleated.
If any change is made in the present arrangement, it
should be a real change, a change designed to simplity
rather than complicate, to retard political manipulation
rather than encourage it.
Making the president of the senate the governor's suc
cessor, would make this ollice more ot a political football
than it is now, would materially impair the efficiency of
the higher branch ot the legislature, and tend to increase
rather than decrease the delects already apparent.
e tavor and have iavoral the creation of a lieutenant
governor, a custom practiced in many other states, with
reasonable success. Jiut the people have not been educat
ed to the need and will have none of it. So its initiation
at the present time is a waste of time.
But the proposed amendment is worse than a waste of
time. It is a step, with potentialities of positive harm. J f
the governor is to represent the people, and be elected by
them, his successor should come as near as possible in the
same category. Ilie people vote lor tlie present vice
governor" when they'vote for secretary of state, and they
know tins when they cast a ballot.
But the people of the state, as a whole, have nothing to
do with the election of state senators. Under thus provis
ion they would have nothing to do with the governor's suc
cessor. The choice would rest entirely with the dominant
machine in the upper house.
One who knows anything about the conditions m Sa
lem, knows what a pernicious political scramble the pas
sage of this amendment would produce. The political di
vision in the senate, caused by the appointive power of
the presiding; olhcer, is deplorable enough now. But with
the gubernatorial possibility thrown in, it might well be
come scandalous.
This successor to the governor measure should be
smothered never to be revived. It hasn't a solitary, virtue
to commend it.

OUR DAY.
1KN0W not what tomorrow's dawn may bring alon-;
my way; perhaps by then I may be gone from this
cheap' ball of clay. .This day, however, is my own, the
day that's now on deck; and I will chase the shining
bone with bells around my neck. I'll do a dozen help
ful stunts before the night arrives; assist some weak,
despairing runts, and brighten up their lives. I've
played a lot of knavish tricks for which I should atone,
and ikiw I should my record fix, for this day is my own.
I cannot bank on any day that hasn't yet had birth;
before it comes and slides away I may fall off the earth..
But in this writing I am sound and full of vim and pej,
I'm full of life, I cave around with high and buoyant
step. Tomorrow they may measure me for monumental
stone; today I'm busy as a bee, for this day is my own.
So while I am a dweller here, you'll find me on my job;
today I'll dry the widow's tear, and can the orphan's
sob.
