ton to the people, and is respon-
sible to them. We hold the doc
triue that this is a democratic gov
where the people rule.
No person thus chosen can ever
have So demoralizing an influence
on politics as the purchaser of Of
flee. The demagogue, bad as he
is, is less dangerous than the man
who gets Office through bribery,
because the latter corrupts the
entire body polite.
If the election of Senators is re-
ferred to the people it will necess-
itate such a campaign as that re-
Gently made in Mississippi, in
which each candidate will have to
take the stump, submit his policy
to the people and allow thorough
examination into his political re-
cord. 1t is certainly a step to-
ward the referendum, and while
the people may not always elect a
statesman they will get man who
will fairly represent and carry out
their views, whereas when the
Senatorship is bought from the
Legislature the purchasing mil
lionaire treats it as his own per-
sonal property, and votes his own
personal preferences instead of
carrying out the wishes of the peo-
pie.
It will be essential, however, in
the election of United States SEN
ators by the people to see to it
that there is free ballot and a fair
count, or there will be but little
improvement over the present me-
thod. .u.lt

Election of Senators.
Tines-Democrat.

Inc exposure OF coIruption III
the case of the election of Senator
Clark will undoubtedly prove q
great stimulus to the movement to
elect Senators by the popular vote.
The movement has been growing
stronger for several years, as the
number of millionaires buying
their way into the Senate increa-
sed; but the Clark case seems to
be the proverbial straw that breaks
the cameps back-the bribery was
80 open and unblushing. 1t has
encouraged the resolution before
the House to make Senators cleo
ted by popular vote, which has al
ready received a favorable report
from the committee, and Chair
man Jones declares that the De-
mocratic platform will have a
plank favoring the election of Sen
ators by the people. There can
be no doubt that the proposition
is popular just now.
The Philadelphia Ledger has a
strong argument against the pro-
position, and declares that the de-
generation in other lines is as
great in the Senate, and the voters
as often elect demagogue or I'M
worthy man as the Legislatures.
"The history of the United Sta
ties Senate" says the Ledger,
."shows that it has at times been
composed Of statesmen and legis-
lators who raised it to a level with
any deliberative body in the
world. There has been a change,
but there has also been a change
In Governors, who are elected by
the people. During the Populist
frenzy Kansas had for Governors
Lewelling and Leedy; Colorado
had Bloody Brides Waite, and
other States suffered from like in
hictions. We have now a Quay
henchman in Gov. Stone. The
boss named and the people cleo
ted him. If the boss controls the
conventions he will name the Sem
ators as we'll as the Governor. The
fault does not seem to be due so
much to defective machinery of
government as to faulty public
spirit. If good citizens do their
duty they can send good Senators
to Washington, and if they shirk
their duty bad men will represent
the State, no matter what methods
OF election are adopted"
While what the Ledger says is
true ii misses the point. The peo-
pie may be deceived in candi-
date and elect ATT Unfit or aHwer-
thy man, although this occurs less
often than it would lead us to be-
lieve; but whoever is elected by
popular vote at least owes his cleo |
