ELECTION OF U. S. SENATOR
How to Give the People Choice in
the Matter.
From the Inyo Register ]

from the Inyo Register.
At the last election in this State great
majority of the voters expressed them
selves as favoring the election OF United
States Senators by direct vote of the peo-
pie. In all probability were test vote
taken in every State the result would be
practically the same in nearly all. But
that such a constitutional amendment
will be enacted for several years to come
appears to be very doubtful. Two-thirds
of both houses of Congress must adopt
the provision, then the Legislatures OF
three-fourths of the States must approve
it to make it law. While public opinion
the whole country over seems to favor
the change, there is no apparent proof
that Congress cares about treating the
matter seriously and setting In motion the
machinery necessary to make 1T an 4nte-
grail part of the National Constitution.
| This being true, and in view of the tre-
mendous majority given the proposition
in California, it would appear only proper
for the State Conventions this summer to
act along that line. Let each convention
nominate candidates for Senatorship, and
then the people of the State, by their vote
on legislators, can choose between
the men so named. y convention
of representative men. composed OF
several times as many persons as are
chosen to the Legislature, is as compe-
tent-and possibly more SOTO choose
Senatorial candidate acceptable 10 the
whole people than is Legislature i'll
which the sack may cut a heavy figure.
With conventions to choose the men, and
the people as a final jury, the prospect of
sale of the Senatorial toga, or of its
resting upon notoriously unworthy
shoulders, is reduced to minimum. Of
course the legislative nominees of the
different parties would be pledged to sup
port for the place the men named by their
respective conventions. Thus the method
would be practically the same as now
employed in the election of the President,
but would usually amount to election OF
Senators by direct vote, without waiting
for constitutional amendment, and still
entirely within the present law. The
plan was tried in Illinois, and has just
been tried in Rhode Island. Now, since
California expressed herself so decidedly
in favor of having word to say in the
choice of Senators, what good reason is
there why the plan should not be tried?

By local applications, as they can

the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by CON

caused by an infamed condition OF
the mucous lining of the Eustachi-

ed YOU have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the re-
suit; and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever Nine
cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in
aamed condition of the mucous sur

THE Austin Statesman says Of the
peril of railways. We had occasion
some years ago to obtain the Stats
tics on this item from the leading
railroads in the United States, and
we found that the Baltimore & Ohio
system killed and wounded by coup
ling cars an average Of one man a
day, and that the Pennsylvania
Central system averaged one and a
half men a day. There is no kind
of excuse for this wholesale butch
cry, as there are automatic coup
lers that would insure safety to life
and limb. The government fortu-
nately recognized this fact, and
there is law Of Congress compel
ing all railroad companies to adopt
an automatic system Of coupling,
The necessity for it has long been
apparent.

Announcement.

To my friends and the general
public wish to announce, that |
shall open a select school in Texar-
kama, September 10. The number
of students will be limited to just
so many as can be given that spec
ial personal attention, which is nee
essary to secure to each the high
est educational advantages. The
moral atmosphere will be pure
enough, and the general tone high
enough to suit the most exacting.
1t is designed that the school shall
be of the very highest order, both
as to the personnel of the student
body and the character of the work
done. No student will be admitted
whose presence for any reason
would not be conducive to the best
interests of the school, We mod
estly promise that our students shall
have advantages superior to those
offered by any school in the COM
munity, and heartily court investi-
cation as to our ability, to realize
this promise.

A Bank Victinized.

The Hartford National Bank, of Bel
air, Nd, has been victimized out OF
So, 700 by a stranger who claimed to
be from Connecticut. The facts in the
case seem to be that some time in
March this stranger wrote Mr.. D. c.
Wharton Smith, president Of the Deer
Creek Farmers Club, and formerly a
prominent banker of Philadelphia,
that he had become interested in the
clubs discussion of "Why Capitalists
Should Locate in Hartford County,
and in his letter arranged a meeting
to discuss the subject. In the mean
time he had written to Mr.. P F. Ball,
president of the prohibition party OF
Hartford county, stating he was greatly
interested in the question of temper
ance and knew several desirable par
ties who wished to locate in the county.
During the snow-storm in April he
visited Hartford and was taken to the
Hartford National Bank by Mr.. Ball
and introduced to the teller, and de-
posted draft of $500. A few days
afterward he deposited $4,000, both
of which were honored and afterward
checked out by him. He made other
visits to Hartford and all the time kept
on the lookout for farms to start the
creamery business, and after some de-
Law settled on the farm Of the late
John H. Janney, of Priesthood Bridge,
which he bought for $4,000. On
Friday of last week he deposited two
bank drafts, one for $4,000 and anoth-
er for $1,000, both on New York
banks, in the Hartford National Bank,
and Immediately drew 81 200 in cash,
draft on Philadelphia for 81 900 and
draft on the Mechanics Bank of
Baltimore for $500, Monday a
telegram came that the $4,000 draft
was forgery and later that the 81 800
draft was also a forgery. Efforts
were at once made to stop the pay
ments on the drafts, but the Baltimore
draft had been paid Belair is in a
great state of excitement over the
| matter.

was heard urging James B. Morgan,
