Children Cry for Pitchers Castoria..

The resolution introduced in Congress
by Senator Palmer, proposing a cOnstl-
tutional amendment for the election OF
United States senators by direct vote
of the people, has met with very de-
cided opposition. In recent speech on
the subject, Senator Chandler outlined
the argument which will be brought
against the proposition. First, he said
it was the beginning of an innovation
which ought to be avoided. 1t would
he the first fundamental change of the
federal constitution concerning the
national form of government. 1t might
seem little singular to hear tho state
ment-tllat this would be the first
change in one hundred years in the
frame work Of the federal government,
but it is none the less true. The next
step would be to make the election of
president and vice-president by a d.
rect vote of the people. Then would
follow, as natural and necessary So
quence, the passage OF a federal cleo
ton law. This might not be, he said,
80 great all objection to himself as to
the senators OH tho other side OF the
chambcr-those senators who had hlth-
erto opposed the adoption OF a federal
election law, but he regarded the ex-
lcIeiuu VI buo ctCku VI poPui"i plSC7
tions to the choice of United States SEN
ators as sure to result in the taking pos
session of the election machinery by
federal officials appointed by the ma
tional government.
These are the views of a republican
senator, but ought they not to give US
pause before going too far in a possibly
dangerous direction? The senate of the
United States is a very patriotic and
conservative body of law makers, and
there is no reason why we should seek
to change the method of their election,
merely because a few cranky So called
reformers have made such a demagogi-
cal demand in the pretense of regard
for the people.-BatOn Rouge Advocate.
It is said by the New York World
that the Confederate brigader is fading
ont of public life. Only tens Southern
Generals are left in the Senate, and not
half as many survive in the House. The
most picturesque of them all is Wal
thal, of Mississippi, who succeeded
Lamar in the Senate. Gen. Walthall is
a tall and very slender man, with Il
yeritable name of black hair. He en-
tered the Confederate service as a Lieu
tenant, and rose SO quickly in rank that
when the battle of Mission Ridge was
fought it was he who was in charge OF
the brigade that bore the blunt of
HOUker's attack.

Yesterday was the third day OF the

were very interesting.
The institute was opened at the usual
hour by Rev. A. D. Perry, and work
was Immediately begun.
The first subject on the programme,
General History, was taken up and ably
discussed by the teachers present.
Prof. Shields, the able instructor, gave
his views as to the best methods Of
teaching it, and the young teacher i'm

DR.. Lazear took the floor and in his
plain, energetic talk and explanation
impressed the facts pertaining to this
topic forcibly upon the minds OF all
present. The institute then adjourned
till l p. m.
The afternoon session was conducted
as theoretically as before noon. The
frat topic, Arithmetic, was taken up
and the discussion OF bank and true dis
count occupied most Of the time. The
teachers wished to have more of the
bad efects OF alcohol on the system ex-
planned, and Dr. Lazcar once more took
the floor, and in his taking way entire

HOMESTEAD, Pa, July 20.-The state

that the troops will be kept here until
the trouble is settled one way or the
other caused profound sensation in
Homestead.
There have been many reports pub
lished OF camp of non-union men To-
Gated near Washington, Pa, which
would be broken at the first oppertun-
ity and the men brought into Home
stead. So persistent became these ru-
mors that the locked out men sent a
committee to investigate hast night
The committee reached Washington
about nightfnll and were directed to
the camp. They gave out first that
they we're agents Of the Carnegie Steel
Company, Limited. They were directed
to a Mr.. Hallam, who had charge of
the men. He told them that the men
we're employed at grading and digging
sewers in Washington. The committee
then went among the men and tried to
hire some. There was not one who
would agree to come here, according to
tho committee.

PITTsBURGH, Pa, July 20.-Considera'
BILE excitement was caused in the neigh
borhood Of Thirty-third street this
morning by the attempt of about fifty
non-union men to get into the upper
union mills. The strikers have been
patrolling this district day and night,
and Immediately upon the appearance
OF the men, they were surrounded by a
large body of strikers. No arms or
clubs were displayed, but the situation
looked serious for time.
One of the new men made a show OF
resistance and was roughly handled,
but cooler heads prevented q disturb

The Militia RoundIy Notwithstanding
Bltternoss.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, July 2o-Except for
women cursing the militia, Homestead
was in death-like quiet this morning
and throughout the night "May God
remember you,for coming here to help
take the bread from the mouths Of the
children" shrieked one amazon at Col
Greene, the officer in command nearest
the Carnegie property and close to the
strikers Headquarters, Experiences OF
this sort, while not numerous, were not
relished by the soldiers and they were
not slow to attribute the outbursts OF
bitterness to growing dependency in
the strikers ranks. Some even based
broad predictions on such disagreeabIe
incidents that the break up Of the strike
had already begun. The strikers, on the
other hand, had different explanation
OF any increased bad feeling for the
troops.
It was suggested that the announce
ment by General Snowden. that con-
trary to widespread expectation the
troops would not be withdrawn until
the existing difficulties in Homestead
were settled had more to do with a
growth of dislike for the militia than
had any alleged dependency. The
time selected for the announcement
that the troops were to be fixture
came in for some rather harsh comment.
The fact was pointed out that the in
formation had been made public by
General Snowden exactly at the critical
juncture when 1t could be circulated in
print the last day before the one set by
superintendent Potter as the final limit
in which applications to work would
be received from the strikers.
