Georgetown (Ky.) Times: The re
publican leaders tumble kindly to the
pomp and show that hong about roy
alty. Belding (Mich.) News: The rank
and file of the democracy. of the na
tion does not seek a victory at the
polls for the sole purpose of changing
U16 office-holders.
Langdon (N. D.) Courier-Democrat:
The United States senator who be
lieves that the people are not com
petent to choose a senator holds, his
seat in the senate under false !pre

are still in the saddle and are riding
rough shod over every measure pro
posed to relieve the people of unjust
taxation.
Cen'terville (la.) Journal: The re
publicans of Illinois are beginning to

Well, they should have known it some
