ELECTION OF SENATORS.
Many States Have Held Primaries for
That Purpose,

The sentiment In favor Of the election OF
United states senators by the people. which
mas seemed so far of to many advocates
OF that plan because II would require an
amendment to the Constitution In order TO
put 1t into effect has been realized by the
action taken in more than a dozen states
The people in these states after talking
about the election of senator's by popular
vote, without result, determined to secure
the benefit of their contention at once by
holding primary elections before the meet
Ing of their legislatures.
During the past summer primary cleo
lions were held In eleven southern states
for the selection of United States senator's
by the people, and the legislatures of these
states will merely ratify the action Of the
people by formally eleeting the men who
have thus been designated. These states
are Alabama, Arkansas. Florida, Georgia.
Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, South
carolina. Tennessee, Texas and Virginia
In most of these cases the legislatures have
not yet acted. but no doubt is expressed
that they will elect in accordance with this
expressed wish of the people, Oregon and
Illinois have practically adopted the same
plan for the election of their senators
VI the thirty vacancies occurring next
year In the Senate, more than a third will
nave been selected by the people in primary
eiecuons. The indications are that this
plan for the choosing of senator's will be
adopted In many other states and that
within few years the practical operation
or the election of senators by the people
VIII nave been put into effect There will
then be an opportunity to see how. the new
system works in comparison with the old
SO lar as the ability of the men secured for
these high positions is concerned
While the legislature would not be legally
bound by the action of the primary. there
is moral obligation to act In accordance
with the will of the people expressed at the
primary election that is not apt to be over
turned by any party in power I'm a leglsla-
ture. In Illinois the vote in favor of Senator
Cuiiom was so overwhelming that no legis-
lature would dare ignore the action of me
people. The conventions of both parties in
Iowa have declared in favor of this method
or eiecting senators. In several New Eng
land states this reform is being agitated

BOYD'S, Nd, September 2, 1906.
A shocking accident occurred to Jesse
Kreig, son of a buggy manufacturer at
Adamstown, near Washington Junction,
yesterday morning. He was oiling husk-
ing drag when some one started it, not
knowing he was in it. His foot was caught
and before he could make leap the foot
was torn off. He was quickN removed to
the Emergency Hospital at Frederick. His
condition is considered to be serious.

The race in the Montgomery county
league now for the pennant is beginning to
be hot and much interest is being taken
in the outcome of it. Poolesvile looked an
easy winner in the beginning of the sea-
son. and when she gets out of her tempo
rary slump may yet win out with ease,
though Rockville is booming up and Ia
koma has settled gait that is proving a
stumbling block to either of their chances.

THIRD PASTURE.

Now we come to frisky lot, the
Labor Union" editors. You know
down In Texas a weed called
LOCO" is sometimes eaten by a
steer and produces a arrangement
of the brain that makes the steer
"batty" or crazy. Many of these
editors are ''Locoed" from hate OF
anyone who willnot instantlyobey
the demands" of a labor union,
anditis the universal habit of such
writer's to go straightinto a system
of personal vilification, manufac-
turing any sort of falsehood
through which to vent their spleen.
We assert that the common citizen
has a right to live and breathe air
without asking permission of the
labor trust and this has brought
down on us the hate of these edi-
tors. When they 60 far enough
with their libels, is it harsh for us
to get judgment against them and
have our lawyers watch for a
chance to attach money due them
from others? (For they are usual
ly irresponsib1e.)

coed" editor.

Now let all these choice specimens
take notice:
We will deposit one thousand or
fifty thousand dollars to be covered by
a like amount from them, or any one OF
them, and if there was ever one ounce
of old bread or any other ingredient
different than our selected wheat and
barley with a little salt and yeast used
in the making Of Grape-Nuts. we will
lose the money.
Our pure food factories are open at all
times to visitors, and thousands pass
through each month, inspecting every
department and every process. Our fac
tories are so clean that one could, with
good relish, eat meal from the floors.
The work people, both men and wom-
en-, are of the highest grade in the state
Of Michigan, and according to the state
labor reports, are the highest paid in
the state for similar work.
Let us tell you exactly what you will
see when you inspect the manufacture OF
Grape-Nuts. You will find tremendous
elevators containing the choicest wheat
and barley possible to buy. These
grains are carried through long convey
ers to grinding mills, and there convert
ed into -four. Then the machines make
selection of the proper quantities of this
-four in the proper proportion and these
parts are blended into a general -four
which passes over to the big dough mix
ing machines, there water, salt and q lit
tie yeast are added and the dough knead-
ed the proper length of time.
Remember that previous to the barley
having been ground it was passed
through about one hundred hours OF
soaking in water, then placed on warm
floors and slightly sprouted, developing
the diastase III the barley, which changes
the starch in the grain into form Of
sugar. ~
Now after we have passed It into
