measure. Here it is:
He is boy orator.
He is dishonest dodger.

president, nor Is he even Of the material
of which any party has ever before made

When Mitchell called up his bill for
the election of senators by direct vote OF
the people, he argued that the reform

bauchery of the primaries, eliminate the
influence of the local bosses, minimize
the influence wealth, create a closer
relation between the senate and the peo-
pie and overcome the sentiment OF mon
archy aud aristocracy Of the present sys-

Perkins. Chandler declared the election
OF senators by the people to be conces-
sion to populist tendencies.
Palmer in responding to the eugges

not be returned to the senate, retorted
that new issues had arisen since bis
former election.
ION these issues | have the misfor-
tune to differ with the machine OF my
state" declared Palmer. "The machine
has control of other states The machine
is againet me. defy the machine, and
whether the machine is stronger than
the people remains to be seem"
Palmer went on TO show that the most
salutary result from the popular election
OF senators would be freedom from ma
