The substitute, f)r the joint reso-
luton proposing to amend tue con-
stitution go az to make the United
States senators elected by popular
vote, provides that each state shall
have the right to determine the
manner in which its senators shall
be elected. 1t is an Improvement
upon the original resolution, be.
cause it recogniz IS the supremacy
of the states and would enable them
to exercise their sovereign will as to
the way and manner in which should
be selected their Ambassadors to
this congress of the states. The
substitute is more Democratic and
should therefore have better
chance of passing Democratic con-
gress than the majority report.

Decision Expected to Give Them {.
Pensionable Status.
WASHINGTON, March 21.-An impor-
tant pension decision by Assistant Sec
retary j. M. Reynolds is looked for this
week. 1t refers to totally helpless chill
dren Of deceased soldiers. It has been held
heretofore that they had no pensionable
Status and many special acts have been
passed and are pending to cover such
cases. 1t is stated on good authority
that the secretary will hold that chill
dren who were pensioned through the
mother or guardian as minors up to the
age of 16 and who are or who become
totally and permanently helpless are
pensionable under the general laws.
This will reach considerable number
of highly meritorious cases who have
been deprived of deserved assistance
owing to the difficulty in passing special
acts Of this character.

tains the Action of Governor
Rich
In Removing Several of the State
Officers For Gross Negli-
gence.

the United States Supreme
Court Refused.

i LANSING, Mich. March 21.-The su-
preme court rendered decision sus-
tanning Governor Rich in removing
Secretary of State Joachim, State Treas
urer Hambitzer and Land Commissioner
Berry, for gross negligence in failing
personally to canvass the returns of the

They hold that it was within the
power of the governor to remove such
officials under the constitution, and that
he has power to determine as to the
facts.
A Judgment of custer is entered.
Refused a Stay.
AS soon rs the decision was read,
Colonel Atkinson, for the canvassers,
announced that he would appeal the
case to the United States supreme court
and asked for stay of proceedings.
Chief Justice McGrath refused the stay,

the officers by the governor, was gross

their salaries and that OF tine attorney
general were largely increased.
All of the above officials and several
clerks have been indicted by the grand
jury in various charges ofsfraud.
