Hovald ¥ yek's Idea Nington Corpespondenee, Senator Van Wyck, of Net a, has, through all of his public carcer, been known as a plain spoken man, and his experience as a senator has not ehanged his opinion that the servants of the peo- ple have no right to hide their acts be- hind closed doors, He says that of course while the rules of the senate prombit a discussion of executive business with open doors, the members of that body are bound to observe the rales, but for his part he would say before the whote country what he is obliged to say confi- dentially, as it were, to his colleagues in executive session. Surely a vight minded man is not supposed to have two sets of views—one for the gulleries, the other for senators. Why, then, should it be neceseary o conceal honest opinions about any measure, even treaties; for when did'the senate keep strictly confi- dential anything the |H||r|( vanted to know? It has Deen urged,” said Sena- tor Van Wyck, “that sometimes @ nomi- nee’s character might be 3 smirched if the doors were open. tell me, if the ecars of are more saered than those of the people, and if such stories are told ofticially, why should we be compelled to listen'to them if they are not true?

But ey without going into details yin confidence, that senators are human xmfi not the stoical, dispassionate solons they are sometimes alleged to be, and that very many things are consumi ed in secret that it would be ble to bring about in open sessions. So when a nomination is reported favorably from a committee the dignity of that commit- tee_descrves the respect of the senate and acceptance of the report. If the re port is unfavorable the same rule should he observed. There is no secrct about the rejection of a nomince. \Why shouldn’t the vote be in public?
