Amannn Ant Garaena.

Or. Z. Ule contributes to Engler's
Jahrbuch supplement 30) some inter
esting observations on 'ant gardens
iii the Amazon region, where they
abound on large number of goody
plants. They are generally spherica in
form and about the size OF walnut.
They are formed by several species of
ant, which appear TO collect the seeds
OF many different plants and TO sow
them In these nests, covering up the
seedlings with humus when they begin
TO germinate. In the structure OF these
"ant epiphytes" the foliage and the
roots display characters which espe-
cially adapt them for the situation In
which they grow and promote also the
protection Of the ants themselves in
their nest. Quite number OF the
epiphytes were found as denizens OF
the ant gardens and nowhere else.

The ELECTION OF SENATOR'S.

The latest outburst of the "scholar
in politics" as his New England ad-
mirers call him. Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge. of Massachusetts. is his attack
on the proposed popular election Of
United States Senators in his COM
mencement address at Yale University
There are many and substantial rea-
sens why the present method of elect
ing Senators should not be changed.
but Mr.. Lodge did not dwell specific
ally on those points. He pretended
to see In the proposal an awful peril to
tn. Republic. He declared that there
was no greater menace to the Constitt-
ton, as it was intended by it's
f'amers. than the proposed method OF
choosing Senators by popular vote
lie did not give the real reasons why
the C'ection of Senators by popular
vote would be undesirable, but said it
would destroy the balance of the Con-
stitution and hopelessly weaken the
power of the States. In the frenzy Of
his imagination he drew this picture:
Ii successful it will inevitably be
followed by proportional representa-
tion in the Senate. and the most rad
ical revolution conceivable will take
place in our form of government. We
alone among the nations possessing
representative government have solved
the problem of an upper house resting
upon an Independent basis and effe.-
tive in legislation. If the Senate is
Iaced upon the same basis as :ue
House, and is chosen In the same wav
" the same constituency. its charor
:"r and meaning depart, the States all
De hopelessly weakened, the balance OF
the constitution will be DESTROYED:
Capitalization will advance with giant
strides. and we shall enter upon a De-
rlod or constitutional revolution OF
which the end can not be foretold.
And yet this eminent scholar might
have saved himself this agony of an
ticipation, and might have spared his
hearers the narrowing view he gave
them OF a possible future, If he had
read the Constitution of the United
States more carefully. for what he pre
diets is made as nearly impossible as
anything can be by this provision in.

NO State, without its consent, shall
be deprived Of its equal suffrage In the

: year after the storm of disaster had
burst over the nation as result OF
Republican legislation-there was a
strong revival of our industries and
wholesome growth of our export trade.
Many voluntary increases of wages oc-
Cured. and nothing but the permanent
settlement of the currency question,
one way or another. was required to
inaugurate the era of prosperity that
followed. The attempt to hold Dem
ocratic rule" responsible for the panic
Of 1893 and the years of depression that
followed it is equally reckless of chro-
nohogy and common fairness. The
Democracy has done very little ruling
since 1858. 1t has been severely pun
shed for its fidelity to the free coinage
of silver. but the people of a silver
producing country should be the last
to taunt it If it made mistake-some
thing that is not admitted. But If the
Democratic party did make mistake
in clinging to the policy of free coinage
in opposition to the business sentiment
of the country. 1t had a large measure
OF Republican sympathy and eneour-
agement. not only in this section, but
throughout the country

Th. Do. and the JAckdaw.


III Savernake forest once witnessed

doe lying down by herself In grassy
hollow, and as | passed her at dis
tance OF ABOUT fifty yards it struck me
as singular that she kept her head SO
low down that could only see the top
of il on level with her back. Walk
ing round To get better sight. / saw
a jackdaw standing on the turf before
her. very busily pecking ut her face.
With my glass | was able to watch her
movements very closely. He pecked
round her eyes. then her nostrils, her
throat and in act every part or her
face. and, Just as n man when being
shaved turns his face this way ana
that under the gentle guiding touch OF
the BARRIERS fingers and lifts up his
chin to allow the razor TO pass beneath

turn her face about to enable the bird
10 examine and reach every part with
his bill. Finally the daw left the face
and. moving round. jumped on the
deer's shoulders and began a minute
search In that part. Having finished
this, he jumped on to the head and
pecked at the forehead and round the
bases OF the ears. The pecking done.
he remained for some seconds sitting
perfectly still. looking very pretty with

ANYTHING else In the Constitutio a

Anything else In the Constitutio a
may be changed by the concurrence OF
th:ee-fourths of the States, but this
change may be blocked by the objection
Of single State. II all the other
States consented to a change, no ar
rangement for it could possibly be
made that would give the objecting
State equal" representation. If 1t
were possible to conceive that small
States like Rhode Island and Delaware
became so impressed with the defects
OF the system that they were willing to
give it up. we presume that even the
scholarly Lodge would admit that II
ought to be changed.
The question that is being considered
by the people is whether Senator'S
shall be elected by vote of the people
of a State or by the vote Of the legisla-
ture of State. Under the present
system Senators are chosen by the
majority party in the legislature. IN
der the proposed system Senator'S
would he nominated in party conven-
ton and voted for as governors and
other State officers are voted for now.
Members of the legislature must have
some qualification to be eligible. When
/ they vote for Senators they are under
the restraint of an oath. There Is NO
qualification prescribed for delegate
to State convention. He could sell
:, his vote TO a candidate for Senator
without treading on the law. He s.
under no restraint except such as Is
prescribed by party obligations. We
prefer the present system OF selecting
Senators to that proposed. but there is
no such danger of destroying the
equality of the States, in any event as
that pictured by Senator Lodge.
