(N. Y. World, demo.)
The republicans could hardly
make a wiser choise of temporary
chairman. It is well that a party
wh'wh faces a national election with
nearly every shade of political opin-
ion under its banner should b9 re-
presented by speakers more or less
acceptable to its widely separated
left and rightwings. Mr. Burton
has fought gallantly and well for the
elimination of pork from rivers and
harbors bills. Remembering this.
Senator Borah can shake his hand
without reservations. Mr. Burton
has also stuck to his party in some
very hard going. Senator Peper can
unbosom himself to the gentleman
