ThiTty-One States-the requisite
number-have asked for a convention
to amend the constitution of the
United States, a majority of them, we
understand, specifying that they de-
sire the election of United States SEN
atOrs by direct vote Of the people
The purpose for the calling of the
convention has, however, been va
riously stated and it is highly probable
that congress will resort to a subter-
fuge and refuse to take the necessary
action for the gathering OF the body
on that account. And one cannot
help wondering whether the fact that
such a convention would have the
power to completely strip the federal
government of the right to exercise
many functions which it has recently
assumed without warrant or else has
undertaken under a forced interpreta-
ton Of the original Instruments
stretching Of its meaning which, if
suggested, would have caused a riot
in the Philadelphia convention OF 1887
whether this has entered the mind
Of Taft and his fellow Hamiltonians?

branches" II we felt sure that the

figure out how many legs four craw

we love our ologies, but oh, you poor

The point is well taken. By all
means let the blue speller take the
place of the blew heart of the craw-

they have mastered the former and
