Election OF Senators BY Popular Vote.
The election Of United States Senators
by the people seems TO have become a
popular IDEA, and no difficulty was ex-
perienced in getting the necessary two
thirds vote fora constitutional amend.
ment, 70 provide for the election Of
Senators In that way through the House
of Representatives. It is doubtful,
however, whether the Senate will egree.
and il they should, the vote will have
to be ratified by the Legislatures Of the
states before It can become law.
AS the people OF the country now feel
toward the United States Senate we
should judge that there would be no
trouble In getting the bill ratified by the
states, but the Senate will probably pre-
vent its ever reaching them by promptly
voting Il down in that body II is get
ting to be. more and more the practice
to have senatorial candidates endorsed
by the people OF their states before the
voting takes place in the Legislatures
This, though mole clumsy method,
amounts to about the same thing, for
the people vote for Legislature pledged
70 vote for their favorite candidate for
the United States Senatorship.

A party OF Wilmlngtonians recently
went to farm near town to spend a
pleasant afternoon. OF this party were
two women, one Of whom tipped the
scales at over 200 pounds and the other
at 1876 There was an ice pond on the
farm and small boat floated on It's
placid bosom. The two women Of
avoirdupois thought they would like 10
take boat ride and a son Of their host,
consented. after much persuasion, TO
row them around for a while. The
lighter woman took seat in
the boat and the heavier one
did the same thing, but her
skirts were not arranged to her comfort
aud satisfaction, and she arose suddenly
to adjust them. That was enough for
the frail boat 10 threw her into the
pond and shipped enough water TO
drench the lighter woman Both were
rescued from their uncomfortable
positions, and taken to the house where
they were provided with dry garments.

women alone are subject. The we'll
