Five minutes later there was an

a book under his arm. He wanted to

senators by popular vote has reached
the point where more than three
fourths Of the states Of the Union have
found m method Of circumventing
the original intention Of the constitu-
ton. and today in thirty-seven Of the
states the legislatures have become the
registering machines for the popular
will. This has been effected without
an amendment to the federal constitu-
ton.
The definite action by the various
state legislatures on the election Of
United States senators has not made a
marked impression on congress. Three
times the house of representatives has
passed the necessary amendment to
the national constitution. but at no
time has the senate put it up to the
country at large.
Florida nominates her senators by
direct primary. IL the first primary
does not result in a majority for any
candidate the two highest fight it out
at a second primary thirty days later.
Georgia instructs her legislature by
the primary method as to the popular
choice for senator. Maryland directly
dominates senatorial candidates by
party regulations protected by the
state primary law. Mississippi nomi-
mates her senatorial candidates by a
primary adequately protected by the
state law. North Dakota has direct
primaries.
