The Lynchburg Advance comes orr
squarely for change in the Constitution
OF the United States that will allow the
people to elect their United States SEN
ators by their own direct vote
The Times has frequently declared IN
favor OF this change The recent sena-
torial election taking all that goes with
1t into the account. should forever dis
gust all decent people with the present
method OF choosing senator's That Is tho
single weakness in our otherwise per-
feet Constitution.
But the scheme Of the thing is radi-
cally wrong. The senators are not
representatives. as the Constitution as
sumes, OF the States as distinguished
from the people. The State is the people
OF the State. II is a radical error 10 have
one party to choose a representative. who
when chosen, is the real representative
OF another party. At present the senator
Is chosen by the Legislature, but when
chosen he represents the people AT large
This Is all wrong. As the senator repre-
SCENTS the people. the people should choose
him. lndirection brings confusion and
possible disaster. Let the people declare
their own choice for senator. and then,

PRINCE WILLIAM TO THE FoRl

Mr.. Nicol member of the House OF
Delegates from Prince William couI lty,
asked Mr.. Ellyson in the investiga ton
If any money had ever been sent at
any time to Prince William county. and
Mr.. Eilyson replied that none had Is cen.
That the chairman Of Prince VIII liam
county wrote him, that he never used
any money in elections, that he dill not
want any money. and, If he Q1lll som
sent 1t there he hoped il would sta i'm
the pocket Of the man who rec lived
IL.
Glorious for old Prince William. when
we have that sort Of views ammo, nced
all over our State we shall be OIL the
high road to politics that a decent man
can take some pride In.
There are undoubtedly uses for nonev
in elections. Meetings must be ;,dver-
tised. halls must be hired. ballots must
be printed, ticket holders at the pols
must be paid. But when these and other
eosnate expenses are paid, all the. !egiti-
mate uses for money are filed. nd all
The money that is thereafter u sed is
money spent in aid of corrupt. ng .tbe
suffrage.
Mr. Ellyson thought the chair nan of
frihce William made mistake when
ne refused this money We differ entire
~ with Mr. Ellyson on the pc6nt. We
are glad he did it, and we ,.lsh we
could see disposition to imii ate his
example all over the state.
