The ELECTION of Senators.

Discussing at length the agitation
for the election of United States sena-
tors by direct vote of the people, the
New York Evening Post says: so
long as the senate itself opposes it,
constitutional amendment is out of
the question"
1t notes the general movement to
select senatorial nominees at the party
primaries as a substitute in lieu of
direct election, and adds: I'm the
southern states the election by pri-
mary seems to move like clockwork.
Two years ago Colorado and South
Carolina elected senators about the
same time. In one case the houses
were in a state of siege, and il looked
as if senator could be elected only
at the cost of bloodshed and riot. In
the other, the debate on some unim-
portant local bill was merely suspend
ed for a minute while a unanimous
ballot was cast, and the member who
had been interrupted went on with his
speech In Arkansas the number OF
votes cast in the democratic primary
which chose Senator Clarke was prac-
tically twice as great as the total vote
for Parker last fall
The Post points out the difficulties
possible where there are more than
two political parties with candidates
but says: Such difficulties can be
solved only by facing them" and
closes with this parting shot: 1t is
hard TO see how, in any event, popu-
lar vote for senators. whether in the
primary or the election itself could
produce worse results than the sys-
tenn of choice by the Legislature. This
state under such a law. might now be
represented by Elihu Root and Joseph
Choate. instead of Plat and Depew.'

NOTAPATENT MEDICINE
Hyomei, the Guaranteed Catarrh Cure,
Prescribed by Physicians.

No one should confound Hyomei
with the patent medicines that are
advertised TO cure catarrh 1t is as
far superior TO the mall as the dia
mOnd is more valuable than CHEAP
glass. Their composition is secret
but Hyomei gives its formula TO all
reputable physicians.
Its base is the valuable eucalyptu:
OIL famous for its antiseptic qualities
This is combined with aromatic and
healing gums and balsams, making
pure liquid, which when used il

there may be in the throat. nose and

How foolish 1t is to try TO cure ca
tarrh by swallowing tablets or liquids.
The only natural way 10 cure this dis
ease and all other diseases of the re-
spiratory organs is to breathe HyOmei.
This treatment has been so success

H. o. Rolls under an absolute guar

in buying Hyomei. If it did not pos
sess unusual powers to cure, it could
not be sold upon this plan.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs

bottle of Hyomei and a dropper. The
inhaler will last a lifetime; and ad-
ditional bottles of Hyomei can be OBJ
tanned for so cents.

will give grudging votes to earn the
bill which is a sham in the way of
reform.
The republican party is in power
at Springfield Its speakers in the last
campaign led by Charles S. Deneen.
spoke everywhere for reform in nomi-
mating conditions. They were loudly
applauded by the people. Outside of
the applause bestowed upon Gov. Den
cen in recognition of mis-. leadership
of his party he received his greatest
applause when he spoke for ballot
reform. He received a record-break-
ing majority and there is no doubt
but that his vote was swelled by the
declarations for the publication of pol
tics Gov. Deneen has been true to
his trust; the majority of the repub-
lican members have not.
1T has long been the boast of the re
publican party that il does things.
The idea that it is a party that does
things has drawn to it the support of
many voters 1t has long been the
boast of the republican party that it
fulfIls its pledges. Its orators have
told how performance square with
promise by the republican party; they
have told how the platform promise
ripened into the fundamental law of
the land under the republican party.
Can the republican party make any
boasts in the next campaign in view
of what is being done to civil service
and ballot reform at Springfield? The
next campaign will come in an off
year In that kind of year state
issues are not lost sight of as they are
in a presidential year. 1t might be
well for some members to bear that in
mind. 1t will be well also for the peO-
pie to bear in mind the names of their
misrepresentation They should be
displaced by true representatives"

Call Them Mtsrepresentat YES.

The Illinois assembly is being free
" criticised by the republican press
as well as the democratic. The Rock
ford Republic declares that a majority
of the members are misrepresenta-
tives. The following editorial appears
in its columns:
There are supposed to be 1913 rep
resentatives in the house at Spring
field. As a matter of fact there are
less than half that many. a major
ity of the so-called representatives are
misrepresentation. Those who make
ND the grating element are certainly
not representatives of the people.
But the grafters are not the only
misrepresentation. They are not the
only dishonorable men in the house.
The members who are arrayed against
a comprehensive civil service bill
which the people want and for which
PARTY platforms declared are misrepre-
sentatives instead of representatives.
There are other misrepresenta-
tives. The members who are opposed
to a direct primary law are anything
but representatives of the people
Over 500 900 voters in Illinois went
on record at the last election for a
direct primary law The number
who 50 voted constituted majority
of the - c~s of the state Notwith-
standing the explicit and decisive in
structions given by the people ma
jority of the members are opposed TO
a direct primary law and are opposed
TO any kind of election reform. They

The Power of Money.

One of the speakers at the Washing
ton birthday banquet of the Creve
Coucr club in Peoria last week, says
that occurred in New York City last
year which strikingly illustrates the
power of money AS the story goes
it seems that at meeting of the Off
GERS and directors of the City Nation
al bank, one of the directors made a
remark that excited the hostility of
James NJ. Stillman, the president of
that bank-which is understood to
be the Standard Oil bank-and the
moving force in 43 of the great finan-
cial institutions of the country that
have their head in New York City.
Stillman at once tried to ruin the man,
although the other was worth $1,000
600. The director suddenly found his
paper discredited He could get no
accommodations at any bank. Collec-
tons were forced upon him with mer-
CHESS severity. and within so days
his whole fortune was swept away, his
family beggared and he was a social
outcast. He committed no Offense:
he was an honorable man; he had sim
ply incurred the anger of Stillman,
and the latter used his power with
despotic severity. This is a sample of
the dangers that comes from giving
one man too much authority. AS
Coin Harvey said: The money
power will. in the end, absorb, dOmi-
nate and ruin every other"

Conclude With a Good Time This
Evening

The services last evening In the Jew

Year, were well attended. and Rabbi
Freund preached a special discourse
suitable to the occasion, and he said in
part: This IS our holy Sabbath--the
day sanctifed by Israels life and
death, by the blood Of heroes and mar
tyrs. It Is also our great New Year.
Should not the days two-told import.
ance awaken within us a thrill at the
significance of all that is contained I'M

word, are we perfectly satisfied that
we have dealt justly and honestly with
our fellow traveller;
The value Of time is best understood
NJ such a moment as the present, when
contemplation concentrates our
thoughts on the aims and objects Of
life, And that we and the whole con-
fraternity Of Israel should at this or
corresponding moment find ourselves
engrossed with this or similar train Of
thoughts may not be an easy matter
to explain, The psychologist reason
cannot be satisfactorily adduced and
we must accOrdlngly--for a time az
least--rest satisfied TO ascribe such
spasmodic thought regular outburst of
religious feeling 10 what has been des-
ignated the Jewish consciousness In
trying to define what this religious con-
sciousness is, We arrive at a dilemma
whose solution would involve us deep
ly in intricate windings as 10 religious
and racial linking. But Of this one
fact we are assured from the time thus
devoted to the day OF memorial-and
this fact we cannot emphasize any TOO
strongly-there is an awakening con-
seriousness of our religious afiliation
with inevitable resultant duties
we deplore keenly the gross ma.
terialism of the age In which we live.
BY this we do not mean the material |
ism which posts that everything orig. |
mates from a material source and ac.
COrdlngly denies the great creative |
cause. reyerently called God. By. our |
term materialism--the pet term Of |
those who desire TO depict LIES great. |

air OF self-satIstaCtion which seeming. |
ly cares for and fears nothing-at least |
nothing short Of lifes termination"
The festival Of the New Year Rash |
Hashonah, Is concluded this evening.
