MASY Of the brightest and most highly
educated men Of the United States are
giving the trust question serious thought.
and are seeking a solution Of the prob
lem that viii save the country from a
condition that must, sooner or later,
bring an end to the republic. The reck-
less disregard Of Law and the great power
OF trusts in shaping legislation, both
state and national, is a menace 10 our
free institutions that is becoming appar-
ent TO the people generally. President
Hadley, of Yale, one Of the conservative
thinkers OF the country, and a man OF
high standing, whose opinions are con-
sidered sound, predicts that the next
twenty-five years will see an emperor in
Washington unless a public sentiment
is aroused that will regulate the trusts
and check their growing power. The
evil cannot he checked unless the people
are aroused to a full realization Of the
danger that threatens them. The ag-
gressiye determination Of these combines
was apparent to members OF the legisIa-
ture OF this state when threats were
made by the lobbyists to withdraw busi-
ness from the state in case certain laws
were enacted. These laws are now on
our statute books and it remains TO be
seen whether the threats will be carried
out. The trusts will, within few years,
become absolute masters OF the people
and eUEtrol all legislation IL no move il
made to end their power, and such men
rs President lladley see the danger.
They are waking up to a realization Of
the fact that We are allowing modern
commercialism to lead US into dangers
that cannot he overcome IL permitted to
continue for o few years in the course
they are now pursuing. The warning
that is being sounded by these men must
be needed. They are not partisans actu.
ated by political motives, but the level
headed students OF conditions as they
lind them.

THE ELgcrloN SENATORS.

Idaho Is one OF large number Of states
shat have passed joint memorials to con-
Eress to call a convention OF states for the
purpose Of amending the constitution
and the governor did not veto the resolu.
tion--to provide for the election Of sena-
tors by a direct vote Of the people. The
deadlacks in a number Of legislatures and
the failure to elect in others have given
added strength TO the movement OF pop
ular election. Several times resolutions
have been passed by the house OF repre-
re>entatives at Washington providing for
the change, but they never got beyond
the pigeon hole OF the committee when
they were sent over to the senate, and
the people are convinced that they may
expect no relief by relying upon congress
TO grant it. For this reason the matter
has been taken mp by the states, some
Shing after the plan OF the initiative, as
authorized by article five Of the eonsti-
tuition and people propose to get an
amendment in that way. This plan
places the matter before congress
in such = manner that it is COM
PEELED 10 act, and good start toward
securing this has already been made
among the states. The legislatures OF
twenty-seven states have asked congress
10 call convention to propose an amend
ment to the federal constitution provid-
ing for the election OF United States sem
Ators by the people. These legislatures
are those OF Arkansas, California, Colo
YadO, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Illinois,
Iowa, Kansas, kentucky, Louisiana.
Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Non
tana. Nebraska, Nevada, New IIamp-
shire, North Carolina, North Dakota,
Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Utah.
Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
Three more states would make the requi-
site two thirds. which would constrain
congress to call the convention. Thus a
considerable step in the direction OF the
change has been made. Such an amend
nent would have to be ratified BY the
legislatures Of three-fourths Of the states
or by conventions in three-fourths Of
them in order to be valid. Bot there
will be no difficulty in securing the rati-
fications, and the prospects for securing
the reform are now much brighter than
ever before. 1t is only n question OF
time, and it seems strange that the
United States senators do not anticipate
this by passing a resolution and securing
the credit for conforming to the wishes
Of tbs people before the matter is forced
upon them.
