G overnor-elect i*'o : * ds-a tine ao dea nd::. that mted States Senator- iInde do not stand for e.-eection. and threat ened if he did. he woulid take the tield aranst him. to have him d.efeatd. ross- was rcty1t% elected Gouvernor on the~ Demo cratic ticket: howev.-c.he has been: a life long] IZ pulican. and was. severa tuS defeated fr oUice by his party, then he turined Democrat, and that party sent hi: to Congress: in the Novem._ - ber tidal wave. Foss was washed up on the Democratic beach. He has not been in the party lono enough to assume the role of Dictator, but e. like all late con verts to every cause, would out Herod Herod. Lodge may be defeated for the Senatorship.but if he is. it will not be because of the ight Foss is waging awainst him, but because the people of Nassachusetts are opposed to his tarifT views. and the other govern ment policies Lodge has sup ported in the Senate. The dieta. tion of the newly elected Gove.r nor may however., have the ef feet of causing the people of that State to lay aside their views on government, to resent the med dling of their Governor and ree ent convert to the Democratic party. Roosevelt was the most popu lar man in the United States. his interference upon his return from Africa was resented 'oy the masses, and it cost him his high place in the esteem of his countr me. whenever a popular hero bec</nes so swell headed with his own importance that he imagines because he has received the plaudits of the people, it places a laurel upon his brow with the heense to dictate, he is usually aroused from his dream with a shock of resentment from the people who placed him on the pinacle that turned his head. It has ever been thus. In our own State, B. R. Tillman, for himself, could get anything from the peo pise but when he undertook to get something for his friends, or undertook to dictate a policy.the people gave him a slap on the wrist, and told him , be oiT at his own business, that they were sutticiently able to take carie of themselves: t is so with politices everywhere, from coroner to th presidency. The Amer:can peo pie wili not stand for dictation. We regard the position taken by Governor Foss against Senator Lodge as unfortunate for the Democratic party. It is known to all, the victory just won was made with Rena blican Votes, and~ that party is to be put to the test: if it should turn out the Demo cratic party is for spoils alone. then the same Republicanls who voted with it in Novemnber, will in 191-3 go back to their tirst love. and it wi! take another qunarter of acenturv for the Democrats to have another peep-in at makiing laws for the country. M\assa chusetts is Republican upon joint ballot, it will send a Republican to the Senate. no power on earth can prevent it: the only chance Foss has in defeating L odge is with another Republica n, th -re fore we cannot see any n1eed of impairing Dem:ocratic use ful ness in that State. and probably drive the Republicans together in the other States merely to) have it said that G. overnor F-oss defeated one of the late leaders of the Senate. THE MEAN~S MAY JUSTIFY ThE EN'DS. The activity- now being manI: fested all over the State for the enforcement of the liquor regu lation laws will cut many a thirsty soU! out of his Christmas nog.
