night. His face was worn from the I

his voice lacked Us old jauntltiess and ;
i resonance. He was "Uncle Joe" In ;
i (Wrhtin* trim, and a startling statement |
made by the power shorn but defiant
Speaker was that the Republicans no
, longer had a majority in the Senate.
"My God!" he cried, with great solem- '
nity, "suppose this I.V» pounds of com
mon clay should drop dead to-night

;^A^' .'LESSON .. FOU THK SENATE.
Bpenker i'»nnnn anrl hi* associate* In th*
HoiiMft oreanizatinn were taught a bitter
lesson yesterday.' Will their experience
servn as a lesson to the Senate leaders
or will they refuse to l?arn except by ex
perience? That Is one of th» most Inter
estlus .questions suggested by th* defeat
of < '.unionism und IBS existing situation
In the Senate. The passing of the old
onJcr in ill* Senate Is apparent to all who
stand at sufficient distance to get a per
spective on the. situation. One by one
"The nts Six" has been reduced, by death
:;nd resignation, until only two of th* «id
leader* are left. MsSSTI Aldrkh and Malt.
Senator F...<i K <. \\a% K.. n tnken Into the
inner councils, ht't at the. «a:n< time the
b'cnair bus fy.^:-. gradually filling up. not

isfy. The rr.et»<o«is whl':li formerly pre
valletl will even r:r>w hanlJy achieve the
dcsireil end.-'. The authority exercised by
Tht BMUSBgVff of the Senate." as Mr.
Al<Jr!ch ha« long been called, is BBhaj con
stantly defied, afid while jmcces* has sot
yet actually crowned tin- efforts of th* In
surgents, new methods arc required to
meet the situation or IB*] will succeed.
HBUOI BT PKIIfoNAMTY.— Two, fac
tors are making far the deception of th*»
sM leaders. T! c psjrafSkaSl] of many of
the lasorctots, ihsir ]*rs<-nal ambitions,
their aaafjßstaitd con«-»ptlon» of tiieir own
destinies ad their Individual radsvs
constitute »>iie. The other ha* been appro
priately described by a playn right as "mol
lusebm." q »!!s!n«;!inatior. to ' yield to Hit?
pressure of tiie tides. There js grave dan
ger that the>«c» factors will i.lintl the men
who now ntrol affairs in ths upper lions'?
to the unquestionable fact that tack of the
men who are termed Insurgents is a areat
an>l powerful movement, an lr.;-urrei;tl<»rui" '
spirit, which as spread throughout the
land, the spirit which made possible ye*
t.r.la\'s o\ert!irov. (> f Catsnonlsm an.l whlc"i
wi'l make Inevitable the downfall of th"
Aldrlcb leadership if It is not >qtiarely ta«*f)
anil u.b!y ricalt with. Il Is useless to potnL
to the character «f the men who happen Io
represmt this spirit and t'> estimate ttJ
reality and strength hy theh- personality.
Had not tf:c spirit b»cn rea! such :n .i
woulrt hardly have' come to tlie Senate. I:
Is futile io deelarv that the spirit Is the
product of the •line!* raker ' am! has rm
{etritimate parentage. It was rho dissati.—
factl >ti wit I: tue «>l.| order, bowevw that
iilss.tti^Jactlon may l:av« been createii
wh'ch ma-if »!-.ei r rleetlon possible. Neither
will it sVrV* any ,:sffui «-n<J to arsr-.e th:i»-
Mich men l;ick the capacity of leatlership.
True as thai may »>e. imrapabla as they
miy l>e of, constnu-tive *tatesfnansliin, by
very force of numbers tiiey can overthrow
the present leadership! Witness yeste:
■■
PARTLY PSYCHOLOGICAL.— To sug
gest that Nelson W. AM; i. has lost any
•>f his capacity to Kau.^e a situation in th*»
Senate or t<» estimate the strength of hi*
opponents is to invite Immediate and em
pfcatic denial from most r>f those who
kr.ow well the Rhode Island statesman.
And yet there is a psychological truism
Involved which, when dissociated with in
divldasls, few will deny. As the ablest
men grow older the en«l^ of their nerves
more nearly approach th» surface; they
become more intolerant of opposition and
lea** am-.-iiiible t<« change. With a dimin
i-hinK number of "regular" Uepublicar.s in
the Senate, the work of each increases,
ami yet each grows older year by year.
Kew men know human nature as •■I! as
.Mr. Aldrlch. Few enjoy keener political
perceptions, and it is entirely possible tiiat
he will adapt himself to the changed ion.
•lit ions. Yesterday's les^un In the House
may not be lost nn him, but success will
soon be attainable by him only through
i !i;!h?e of method. !

rot Bars served In lbs case of the postal j

modify th© bill to conform to the \i«ws of
the Insurants, but to permit on« of their
