"Triumph of Politicians"

we make the following extract:
"After themselves disowning and
f1ercely denouncing section 5 a ma
jority of members of the Constitu-
tional Convention yesterday passed
that offensive section, offensive to
Democracy, to political honesty and
to Americanlsm; and the Conven-
ton too, has passed this offensive
section in face of the fact that the
ablest Democrats in the United
States Senate have declared it to be
unconstitutional. Senators Caffery
and McEnery have protested against
its passage, and have declared thai
| it contravenes the Federal Constitu
tlon. In this opinion they are joined
| by such stalwart Democrats and IN
compromising States rights Senators
as Turpie, Of Indiana; Lindsey, oil
Kentucky; Vest, Of Missouri; Berry
of Arkansas; Walthall, of Mississip
pi; Turley, of Tennessee; Pettres, Of
Alabama, and McLaurln, of Soutl
Carolina. and many members of tn,

With the opinion of these Senators
that the grandfather clause" is I'm
