The Senate Must Be Forced to
Yield.

After having cast more than one
ballots and having con
sl,med valuable time, which shoulu
have been devoted to the purposes
of legislation, the Legislature OF
Delaware is as far from the cleo
ton of a United States Senator as
it was on the first ballot.
The inability of the law max
ing department Of the little State
Of nelaWare to perform this PLAIN
constitutional mandate, is said to
be due to tho lavish use OF money
bv one of the millionaire candl-
dates, who has only a handful OF
purchased retainers and who hasn't
the slightest chance to be elected,
but remains in the field to dlVldeand
demoralize the forces Of Ills 0ppo-
nents and thus defeat the election
of a Senator, unless he can WIN
the coveted prize himself. The
impotent action or rather MONACO,
ton ofthis legislature handi capped
and controlled as it is now and has
been from the first day OF the ses-
sion, by the corrupt use Of money,
il sufficient to convince us, it any
other argument was necessary,
that the right to elect United States
Senators should he withdrawn from
the legislatures aud be conferred
upon the people Of the various
States. Had the choice OF d Unit
ed States Senator deyolved upon
the people Of Delaware, they
would have performed the duty IL
one day. But the Senate vii

But as Huntington is all American
