s A newspaper dispatch says de-mands

are made that Chauncy MDepew resign as director of theEquitable Life Assurance society Itizsiso said that the demand will bemade that Mr Depew resign as trus-tee

¬

k of Yale university and that recentdisclosures may affect the senatorsrelations with other institutions

x Has anyone heard of a demand be-ing made for Mr Depews resigna-tion as United States senator-

Is it not strange that a man whohas been guilty of such offenses thathis resignation director of an in¬

i nationmanded should be permitted to con¬tinue as a member of the UnitedStates senate without even a protestfrom the people whom he is presum-ed

¬

to representSenator Burton of Kansas was

tried and convicted yet it was neverseriously suggested that he resign hisposition in the senate

Senator Mitchell of Oregon wastried and convicted yet no demand-for his resignation as a senator hasbeen made

Senator Dietrich was indicted andescaped on a technicality yet MrDietrichs resignation as a senator

k

was not demandedSome members of the lower houset

have been arraigned in court chargedwith serious offenses while import-ant

¬

disclosures concerning many oth ¬

ers have been made and yet there isno demand that any of these men

I

surrender the commission they holdfrom the people I

What does this signify Does itshow that we are so careful of ourbusiness institutions and our collegesthat we insist that anyone connectedWith these institutions shall resign inthe face of charges affecting his in¬tegrity while we do not have thesame concern for the public service

Can the people afford to have alower standard for the public officialthan they have for the business di ¬rector or the college trusteeLin ¬cola Commoner
