CALLING NAMES DOESN'T SCARE

The New York Sun, which puts on
the mask of Democracy the better to
serve its master, Privilege. calls the
GLOBE ''semi-anarchist." The Pho
neer Press, which does the same serv-
ice without the mask, echoes the appel
lation. If to clearly see the bad condi-
tons to which the subseryience of the
Republican party to Privilege has
brought US; if to exert every power
to aid in removing these conditions and
restore equal rights; if even to say that
the railroads are not in position, with
their records of fragrant contempt for
law, to rebuke lawlessness in their EN-
ployes, and that they had better wash
their hands before they remark on the
uncleanlinesS of the hands of others -
if all this lis to be anarchistic, plenarY
or semi, the GLOBE accepts the term as
one OF commentator, and will wear it
with pride. 1t will not be the first time,
even in recent history, where term
devised in hatred and meant to convey
contempt has become a badge of honor.
The country needs repeated doses of
Just such anarchy" and must have
them, if healthy conditions are to be
ever restored to but nominally free
people.

MR.. ROBERT C. SAUNDERS

County Attorney at HinckIey, Minnesota !
A potential fact, awaiting on ly the
fullness of time for complete accom-
pliShment, is the election of United
State senators by the poeple-and they
should be. The federal government is
the agent of the people, the whole peo-
pie. and not of the states. Its powers
flow from the people and not from the
states. Those who administer the
FEDERAL government should be chosen
by the people In as direct manner as
Is practicable, and they will not then
forget their obligations to the people.
There is nothing sacred about the
present mode of electing United States
senators. -Four methods were suggested
In the constitutional convention, and
election by the state legislatures was
adopted more as compromise than be-
cause it was thought to be intrinsically
the best. The senate branch of the
national congress is essential to our
scheme OF government, and it is neces-
sary that the members of this
branch have long terms in order that
they may become familiar with public
affairs, and skilled in the art of govern
ment. 1t is also necessary for good gov-
eminent that they be the choice of the
people. in touch with the people, and
responsible to the people. The agents
authority and power should be derived
directly from the principal. and not flow
by process of filtration through an in-
termedium.
fnfn g.,
are both the agents of the people, es-
tabllshed for the purpose of executing
the will of the people in their respective
spheres. There is no interde pendence
OF the two. Both are dependent upon
the people. The people should elect
the officers Of both. The proposition is
simpie-settled. The only question is
as to the length of time 1T will take to
effect the change iii tie. manner of
electing senators. Some things are
now settled beyond controversy, among
them the supremacy of the national
government. This fact was established
NY the civil war, and accumulated dur
Ing the late strikes. 1t is, therefore, of
prime Importance that creature so
powerful as the national government
should emanate Immediately from the
people in all of its branches.
Certainly the senate would be I'M
proved if elected by the people. 1t
would serve the people. and the people
only. 1t would reflect the peoples
wishes, and in view of assured rebuke,
did it not do so. would execute the peo-
Pies behests. 1t is lIard,if not i'm posi-
BILE, to corrupt the whole people. A sem
ator elected by the people would. in most
cases, embody the average intelligence.
Integrity, patriotism and civic virtue of
his constituents. Nothing more can be
expected. nor even desired by the PEG.
pie. The good they are not ready to
receive they do not want. If they will
not elect honest and able men, thew do
not want such, but such are what thew
want. and will ultimately get. There
need be no lurking fear that the people
will do themselves harm by selecting
bad representatives. Though mistaken,
misguided or viciously corrupt in one
or another instance, they will in the
end elect better senators than the state
legislatures now select for them.

1.-THE CITY MISSION.

The dangers which will ever exist in
the large cities for the unwary and UNI
tutered young girls who only too often
flock there from the county are too
we'll known TO be dwelt upon at
length. Such stepJin the life of many
young girl has often proven her ruin.
No nObler work Of a missionary char.
acter could be undertaken by our
Christian ladies of every city than to
organize for the purpose of protecting
such girls.
The city of Berlin offers model as
ISOLATION as all example, which calls
itself 1.-The City Mission" The society
is made up of delegates of the various
ladies' organizations in Berlin, and has
for its object the care and protection of
all young girls who enter the city for
the first time. Notice is sent to
the secretary of the society from
the country districts. whenever a girl.
or number Of them. are on their way
to the city,. Often the telegraph is
taken into reQuisition. Ministers. teach
erS, and, in fact, all well-disposed
citizens throughout the country. are
constantly urged to Inform the mission
society to advise, its officers of all re-
movals. AS soon as the girls arrive at
the railway stations they are met by a
proper officer of the society or some of
the members, and escorted to a proper
stopping place In the city. The society
exercises its influence further than this,
and assists the girls to get into proper
Christian, welI-disposed surroundings
and employment. and thereby saves
them from the usual pitfalls which
beset them on every hand.
The movement, while still in its mi
tial stages, has already proven very
successful, and deserves imitation III
all the large cities of the United States.

o. @<a~F
HON. S. w. LEAVETT.

EEx-State Senator From Litchfield, MINI. I
am uneQuivocally in favor of the
election of United States senators by di-
rect vote of the people for the following
reasons:
1t is Democratic.
This is, or should be, government of
the people. by the people. and the cleo
ton of officers to enact laws for the gov
eminent of such a people should never
be censummated by proxy.
United States senators, as a rule, to
which there are very many honorable
exceptions, purchase their commissions
from the legislatures of the different
states. and. having so purchased. look
upon what should be a sacred trust as
purchased opportunity to accumulate
wealth; hence the truthful saying,
"Some are senators because they are
rich, and some are rich because they are
senator's"
Never coming in contact with the peo-
pie, they have no sympathy in their mis-
fortunes, no Interest in their welfare, no
care for their happiness; as conse-
anence we have the horrible spectacle
presented to our view Of the deliberate
purchase of controlling interest ip the
limited States senate by the sugar king
OF the world. that the trust he represents
may by another turn of the screw of
taxation wiring. another hundred mill
ions from the toilers who are misrep-
resented in the United States senate.
( 81 1t is millionaire club of doubtful
( Value. 1t should be reorganized or eX-
Terminated. This can only be done by
direct vote Of the people.
tol The upper house of congress would be
improved if its members were SO
elected.
ucFirst-It would be impossible for the
trusts to go out among the people and
purchase commissions for senator's; 1t
would be too expensive even for the
sugar king.
Seeond-The question of honesty and
fitness for the position would be taken
into consideration, which is rarely done
under the present system.
Third-The senators would not be Sc
lected "because they were rich," but
because they were "of the people and
for the people," and we would have
laws for the protection of the people.
instead of laws to enable the trusts to
plumber them.
Fourth-It would be better because 1t
is impossible to make it any worse.
Yours for reform,
