Simplification of Electoral

The following editorial is from thfs
mornings New York Sun;
4 ular Error of Fact.
The Rev. Dr. Henry Van Dyke has
written to our neighbor, the Times, a
most generously conceived and ardently
ernor-elect Woodrow Wilson's position
with regard to the senatorial question.
After remar1ing that churches will
decay, universities wither and parties
rot if plain moral questions are twisted
obscrred or smothered, DR.. Van Dyke
goes on to say:
Here is a concrete vase. DIR. Will
son was elected on a platform which
Endorsed the principle of direct pri-
maries in senatorial nominations
"Dr. Van Dyke was never more mis-
taken in his life. The platform on
which DR.. Wilson was elected, adopted
by the Democratic State convention at
Trenton on September 10. contains not
one word indorsing the principle of
direct primaries in senatorial nominal
tions, meaning United States senator's.
The PLANK on direct nominations is as
follows;
"'I6. such q si~HsHacatien OF the
electoral machinery of the State az Will
make possible the cdectunl exercise of
the right of direct nomination On the
part OF t,c voters for all elective Offices,
aud the enactment of laws which VIII
secure TO them that right In the NEST
eTectunf manner
This manifestly refers to the sinlpi-
fication of the electoral machinery of
the State Of New Jersey, not to the
modification of electoral machinery
established by the Constitution of the
United States. 1t refers to the strength
ening of the practise of direct nominal
ton OF elective officers for whom the
voters of the state are to- vote at the
election, not to the practise of direct
nomination of Federal officers who Sc
choice the Constitution of h United
states confides to the legislatures of
the State. 1t concerns the enactment
of primary laws which fall within the
States authority, not laws which the
State is incompetent to enact.
This is shown ~conclusively by the
fac that the New Jersey platform mis-
read by DIR. Henry Van Dyke does refer
in a separate plank and as Il different
question to the election of United states
senator's. we declare our conviction
says the platform on which Dr. Wilson
was elected. that citizens should be
given an opportunity forthwith to pass
upon a constitutional amendment pro-
viding for election of United States
senator's by popular vote
"Thst is what DR.. Wilson is corn-
mitted to by the platform, the submits
sion of a constitutional amendment
providing for the election of United
States senators by popular vote"

POINT.
REVIEWS FIGHT
ON HOUSE RULES

WASHINGTON. Dec. H-ReneWal OF
the fight on the rules which signaltzeo
the past session was precipitated to-
day bv Representative Hughes, OF New
Jersey. The point raised was whether
o bin considered in regular order last
calendar Wednesday could be taken
up again today.
The question under consideration was
whether a bill for the c~odification ana
revision of the laws relating to the Ju-
dietary. consideration of which occupied
all last Wednesday, should again be
taken up today simply On the call oil
the chairman of the COMMITTEES report
ing the
The question was raised by Mr..
Hughes Immediately after the House
met and after Representative Moon, OF
Pennsylvania, chairman of the com
mittce OH revision OF the laws, had
asked that the House proceed with
the consideration of the bill for codify-
ing the judiciary laws.
Representative Fitzgerald, of New
York, led the Democratic side of the
House in opposing consideration of the
bill. He declared that the House. IN
dor the rules, could decide for itself
what business it shall consider.
1t was declared by some members
that the judiciary bill, which is lengthy,
might be used as a buffer to prevent
the House from taking up any other
bill from other calendar Wednesdays
to come.
Representative Sherley, of Kentucky,
in discussing the rules, declared that
the consideration Of the bill, which is
SO3 pages in length and contains 2Se
sections, might occupy every calendar
Wednesday during the session. The
House last Wednesday reached only
section II of the bill.
After the discussion had proceeded
for as hour Speaker Canno ruled that
there were no precedents exactly fit
ting the situation, but that the House
should not be deprived of doing for
itself whether it would proceed to
consider the bill. By a vote of 146 tc
81 the House decided to take up the
measure.
