THE ELECTION Of SENATORS.
Hill of New York Talks of a
Popular Measure.
Congress Should Do Something At
This Session.
The New York Politician Says the Amend
mont to the Constitution Would
Be Boon to tho Country.

| Special to THE HERALD.
WASHINGTON, Jan. Ex-senator Hill
was asked tonight il he did not think
congress at this session should take
steps necessary to bring about popular
elections of United States senators.
"Yes," replied Hill. 81 think con-
gress should give the country not only
the financial legislation it needs, but
other appropriate legislation demanded
by the best interests of the people.
Among other things 1t should psss the
proposed amendment to the constitu-
ton for the election OF senators by the
people. 1t is much needed reform, the
Importance OF which at this time can
not be overestimated.
1.-THE house, which usually is more in
touch with public sentiment than the
senate, has alreedy passed joint resolu-
tions proposing an amendment to the
constitution providing for the election
OF senators by the people, and these
resolutions are now awaiting action by
the senate. II the senate should concur
with the house and pass the resolutions,
have no doubt whatever but the
amendment would be ratified by the
requisite number of states.
st lie a popular movement. 1t accords
with Democratic ideas and sentiments.
1t would improve the senate and bring
that body more in accord with public
sentiment upon great measures. Sens-
tors whose election is removed from the
people and is for long terms. naturally
become indifferent to popular desires
and are slow to act upon important
questions. Legislatures can be i'm
properly manipulated and controlled by
influences which cannot we'll reach
the people of q whole state, and
many scandals would be saved and bet
ter selections secured as general ru,a,
If power OF election were vested in ths
electors Of the state.
1.-THE election OF United States senators
by the people would largely relieve par
tisan Legislatures from the temptation Of
''gerrymandering" legislative districts.
and members could be chosen according
to merit and not because of their attl-
tude toward senatorial candidates.
estates which are ordinarily Demo.
cratic like Connecticut, New York and
New Jersey could elect Democratic sem
ators by vote of their people while by
reason of Rerrymandering by legislation
or in constitutions it may be impossible
to do go. Democrats ought to be able to
see where their true interest is upon
this question and should act accordingly.
1.-THE Democratic, independent, and
Republican press that favor this con-
etitutional amendment should press the
matter upon the attention of readers.
No important reform was ever accom-
plished except by agitation, and agita-
ton sometimes even affects the senate
OF the United States"

ANOTHER FINANCIAL MOSES,
Senator Jones of Arkansas Has
a Currency Plan.
The New Measurs Said to Have
Backing.
No Definite Programme Arranged for
the House This Wesk-Appropria-
ti0n Bills to Come Up.

WARRINGTON, Jan. 13.-The probabili
ties are that the beginning Of the week
will see the introduction of still another
currency bill in the senate. Senator
Jones. OF Arkansas, who at the critical
stage of the tariff legislation, took that
matter in hand and harmonized the
different elements 90 as to bring definite
results out of decidedly chaotic condi-
ton, is the author Of the new bill, and
he comes to the front this time as a
compromiser and harmonizer.
ANTAGoNIzING ELEMENTS.
There have been objections made to
the bills prepared by Senators Vest and
MCPHERSON. on the ground, il the case
of the Vest bill, that it leans too much
toward silver; and in the case of the
MCPHERSON bill. that tits too exclusively
in the interest OF bonds. Senator Jones
realizes that silver and bonds are the
two antagonizing elements in this ques-
ton, and his effort has been to prepare
measure which will perhaps not be all
that the friends OF the other CAUCUS
would naturally demand, but will in the
end secure the support Of both ele-
ments.
He has been in consultation with
many of the leaders OF both these CON-
tending elements in the senate, and II is
understood that his bill, as outlined,
has the favorable Endorsement Of the
representatives. of all the conflicting in
terests. 1t is also understood that the
terms OF the bill are not unfamiliar to
| leaders in the house. Furthermore, it
| is probable that it has been brought to
the attention of the proper authorities
in the executive branch Of the govern
ment.
The bill will fret provide for the is
suancs of 21a per cent bonds to the
amount Of $500, 1000, 900, which are to be
paid in gold and are to be used both for
the purpose OF meeting the current ex-
penses of the government and the res
demption of United States and treasury
noteB. The bill will also provide for the
issue OF bank notes to take the place OF
treasury notes ia such q way ss not to
produce a contraction OF the currency.
Another provision 10 that this national
banks shall be allowed to issue up to
their par value, and tax on national bank
circulation is fixed at one.fourth Of one
per cent.
In the interest OF silver the bill pro.
videe for it's unlimited coinage under
the conditions that the holder of silver
bullion may take it to the mint and
have it coined into silver dollars, the
government retaining as seignorage the
difference between the coming value Of
the bullion and it's market value on the
day that the bullion is taken to the
mints. The bill also provides for the
withdrawal from circulation Of all green
backs. treasury notes and national bank
notes below 500 and the substitution OF
silver certificates in denominations OF
less than 500. which are to be payable
in silver. The bill will contain provis-
ions providing against either undue in
hation or contraction.

He states that in calm, when 10

vessels cabin was looted. Four boat
loads Of oil were taken and the
crew was ordered 70 await the pirates

have been greatly exercised over the
action of the democratic convention IL
formulating a strictly true, unequivoca
and fearless democratic PLATFORM
platform that every honest member Of
the democratic party in Barton county
can and will defend unfinchingly.
The Register thinks it wrong poll
tics" for party to come out squarely
and define its position. Possibly the
editor of the Register is TO be excused
for looking at politics in that light.
Certainly his party, in its recent plat
form, cannot reasonably be charged
with taking position on anything, IN
less it be that that platform announced
that the republican party of Barton
county is willing to do anything, be
anything, propose anything to catch
votes-''all things to all men," The
Register, or the republican party, has
never had the courage to come out
boldly aed fearlessly and denounce any
thing it or its party believed unAmeri-
can and unsafe-providing such stand
might lose that party votes. With
them it is ''get votes-no matter how
but get votes" and ''to the dogs with
principle"
The weak whine of the Register
comes with poor grace and falls fat
upon the public ear when the source of
that whine is considered, and the weak,
unpatriotic conglomeration of nonsense
called the platform of the Barton couny
republicans, is remembered. The Reg
lister can rest assured that the demo
Gratis are going to stand for what they
know is right, and the candidates are
not at all worried or disturbed by that
papers transparent effort to prejudice
its readers against the platform. If
the managers of the republican cam
paign desire to. make defeat of their
ticket more certain they will encourage
the Register to keep up its fight on the
line it has started out.

that he shall come down to the lowest
rates offered by the cheap John firms
or if the have their work done at home
they run from Office to Office getting
bids on what they need. The home
printer could as well effect saying on
everything he needs by sending to the
east for it, but he doesn't do it. He
favors the home merchant in many
ways throughout the year and has
right to expect your printing at living
rates-the way you sell your goods.

Irrigation is the panacea for this

I advise them to come to Colorado

The harmony that prevailed in the
democratic county convention augurs
well for the success of the admirable
ticket put in nomination. The republi-
cans are trying in every way to atone
for the blunders they made in their
platform, but they are tainted with
popular distrust that in spite of their
numerical strength they will be beaten
in their own party.

THANK God, the war is over at last!
The Washington Star comes back at
the papers that assail Quay's war
record by declaring that 'a mans
military record cuts no figure" When
a republican paper talks thus the war
must certainly be nearly over.
