' v The Hon. Charles Argentum Towne. chairman of, the Silver Republican na-i tionai committee,' says that trusts and imperialism are the great questions Col. Bsyan says that the great qucs lions are these: Silver. trus-ts and im perialism. The New York Sun think a concordance of fusion is greatly needed. The White Clover creamery will be a four-leafed clover of good luck 'for Salem if it gives la boom to diversified ami interi.ified agriculture here and it promise- to do so. The cow is the step-mother of the pig and the gran-j mother of the intensified hen; and the patron saint of Well fertilized and pro ductive fields an pastures. There is nothing like noise to draw a crowd. When: the noise is not . dis-t cordant, all the 3etter. and the bigger the crowd. The State Fair manage-; incnt has done well o secure the state band tmrna,menlj on. the grounds dtir ing the-week. Every one of the twen ty bands will draw a crowd from th town and, district from which it haiis, and the whole aggregation will dralw the people from everywhere, ' like I a big magnet. There can fe no further doubt that the people will all be wi us during State - Fair week and they will all eni-ty themselves. By the significant vote, of 240 ayes 10 15 noes, the House of Representatives .n fu.' ,1v& n t.trk 'lAiiiiltA n rfinct 1 1 ti 1 it an al amendment providing for the ekc tio'n of United States Senators by a direct vot; of -the people. While there is little doubt that the House in tjiis vote fairly represents popular senti ment, the amendment has still to jbe adopted 'by thevote o'f two-thirds of the Senators annl ratified by the Legis la;urcs of three-fourths of the stajtes before it will become operative. Most of the Senators are likely to prefer election by the legislatures, as ; at present and it is questionable whether the legislatures of three-fourths of the states will be. willing to abdicate the power they now possess of choosing sScnators. Of course the people can elect. Legislatures instructed to ratify an amendment of this kind they care t. but -they have as yet manifested no very serious inclination to do so, The election of United State's Senators by popular . vote may 4c one of the chansres of the future, but it is I not likely to be made in a hurry.

CREDITABLE WORK. Senator Mark Hanna is performinir creditable work for his party in dis couraging and opposing the Tim Woodruff boom for the Vice Presiden cy. 1 voodrutf is a political upstart who aspires 1 tor political honors on the ground that he has money to spend and nerve to place himself in position where; he would be ridiculous. Vault ing ambition should not be encouraged at any time, as it is a disease which, when coupled with the free use of money. corrupts government and brings American institutions in disre- ftie.-f-Pemlfeton East Oreeonian. Uemocratic. Well said. Ihere has been too muohj of political preferment of men with no- other mialification or valid laimj excepting, their wealth, and the outcome in the case of Clark of Mon tana Mould go to show that there is a strong disposition to resent this prac- e from this time on, by the man hood! of the nation, which is and should !e above, considerations of paltry dollars and cents. Thus is the comment of the Phila- lelphia Times, which has Democratic sympathies, upon the suggestion trat Dtwey would be. a good pinning-mat? tor tiryan: we take utile, stock in he suggestion that Admiral Dewey would accept the Democratic nomina tion; for Vice President with Bry.m at the head of the ticket. It is : ossible o' !those Who have had little "oolitical rain'hg to make serious mistakes when they iside-track into politics, ! but we can t imagine so grotesque a blitiider on j the part of Dewey as his consent to fide behind Bryan in a Preside itial racp. Dewey would be a very strorg Democratic candidate for President: pnibably the strongest who could be selected, but he wouldn't bring n cor poal's guard of votes to BraT as a candidate fo" Vice President. He wouid simply waste the strength he has. jr.d uffer ;a humiliation that his s!f-res- pect . should. 'and we doubt not will, reientjon the instant. 'There s little kelihood that the Democrats can make :a hopeful battle for the next President, chiefly because they are so completely encircled in the slimy em brace iof Biyan and Bryan ism that thty can't escape from it. If rhsy were free to act intelligently and patr'iDtical- vi there would be certainly a fair chancei to win the great battle of 1900: but how cheap money, repudiation and agrarinnism can command favor from ... ilelligent and prosperous American people; when they rejected the same candidate and isms in the severe lini.i cal and industrial gloom of four years ago, is utterly incomprehensible. If the Democrats won't take Dewey, the sbnnd money and conservath'e Demo cratic elements of the country vill be astly multiplied against Bryan, and nts deieat even more overwnemung that it (was in 1806."
