United States Senators ought to be

reason than to take the contest out OF
the legislature 1t is pity to have the
minor question of preferring one man
over another, to overshadow others OF 30
much more vital interest to the moral
and business welfare of the people. The
next best way to handle the question in
this State would be for the Democratic
party to call State primary election to
settle such disputes between Democrats,
1t is perhaps too late to do 80 for this
time, but resolution at the May con
vention committing the party to that
course in the future would be timely and
