In the Face of His Constituents

By Glaspell, Susan

Description
Excerpt: SENATOR HARRISON concluded his argument and sat down. There was no applause, but he had expected none. Senator Dorman was already saying ?Mr. President?? and there was a stir in the crowded galleries, and an anticipatory moving of chairs among the Senators. In the press gallery the reporters bunched together their scattered papers and inspected their pencil?points with earnestness. Dorman was the last speaker of the Senate, and he was on the popular side of it. It would be the great speech of the session, and the prospect was cheering after a deluge of railroad and insurance bills. ?I want to tell you,? he began, ?why I have worked for this resolution recommending the pardon of Alfred Williams. It is one of the great laws of the universe that every living thing be given a chance. In the case before us that law has been violated. This does not resolve itself into a question of second chances. The boy of whom we are speaking has never had his first.?
