POPULAR ELECTION OF SENATOR

According to theory Of which
much has been heard in recent
years the people should indicate
heir choice for United States sena-
tors, and legislatures should ratify
the preference. 1t is a good time
10 examine how this plan, rs far as
tested, Is working practically. In
the recent general election in Mis-
souri, the total vote of the state on
governor was 1880, and the Re-
publican plurality was II ,263. The
Democratic candidate for governor
ran behind his ticket. but received
a total of 3S7 ,S08 In the Demo-
cratic senatorial primary the vote
was, Stone 159, ,5l2, Folk 14A,71O
Stone received but % percent Of
the entire vote Of the state, yet
this result made him senator. He
also received less than half of the
Democratic vote of the state.
A senatorial primary in Ken
lucky resulted n the election OF a
Republican, though the Legislature
was Democratic by small majority.
In Oregon the primary ground out
the election of a Democratic sena-
tor by Legislature Republican
by four to one. In Illinois the Re-
publican who received a plurality
in the senatorial primary has not
yet been elected, though numerous
ballots have been taken. Party
regularity, held to be sacred in Mis-
souri, appears to be disregarded in
Illinois. These various results fail
to show that the senatorial elec-
tions are any closer to the people
than they have been, In fact, the
la"t"s. outcome is further removed
from popular sentiment than it was
before. The situation has been ex
tensively confused, not brotght
closer to a genuine majority of the
voters Of any state. Aud If this il
