(Natchez News.)

The experience of the State of Mis-
sissippi in its recent election of a
United States Senator is a further IL
iustration. additional to the many pre-
scented in other commonwealth that
the present manner of electing United
States Senators is no longer suitable
to modern conditions. Large legisla-
tive bodies being unwieldly, and the
trainers of the American Constitution
having decided to make the term for
which members of the House of Rep
resentatives are elected only two
years, they thought it advisable to
have another body serving a longer
period, only one-third of whom is
elected for every Congress The cleo
ton of the Senate was left to the
Legislatures of the States on the sup
position that they would represent a
somewhat higher order of intelligence
than the constituencies which had
elected them. There is no doubt that
the idea was correct and that the

system worked well for the true in
terests of the country for time. But
conditions have changed, from causes
which the trainers of the Constitution
did not foresee. The most enthusiast
tic believers in the future of the Re-
public did not and could not foresee
the expansion OF the country in area,
population and material progress nor
did the great statesmen of the last
quarter of the eighteenth century
either in Europe or in America antici'
pate that the progress of the nine
teenth century would tend to almost
fabulous development of the material
welfare with much of this develop
ment procured at the expense of many
of the civic virtues which alone were
regarded as worthy of development.
In the early days of the Republic,
membership in the Legislatures was
sought by the ablest men of the young
struggling States; and Senators were
chosen by an electorate of a higher
order than the bulk of citizens who

down to a practical basis, with prom
Use of far better results than we have
ever hitherto achieved. 1t is fair
enough to assume that the policy en-
tered upon will provide substantial
basis and afford the best possible op-
portunity, under conditions as they
present themselves, to test fully the
problem OF, cheaper transportation by
water as a check to possible excuses
of cost of transportation by railway.
One of the important principles of
the present measure is the recogni-
ton of an idea, vital to many regions
of the country, which are peculiarly
well endowed by nature in that re-
spect, is that the water power of
navigable streams may be permitted
to be developed to the great advant-
age of large communities and to the
profit of the entire country and at
the same time preserve and conserve
the benefits of navigation. For a
long time water power development
has been going on, if at all, without
due respect to navigation, and the i'm
provement of navigation has been
proceeding without respect to the util-
ization of waterpower. Each has it's
value as a commercial factor They
should be worked together, and OPP
Grated together; their benefits would
be multiplied. There are vast forces
in our streams which have been al
lowed to go to waste, and these forces

could be conserved for navigation ana
at the same time be transmitted into
great elements of motive and manu-
featuring power, which would I'M
mensely save the fuel resources OF
the country. We are trying to reach
a solution of the problem that we can
have power without storage, and stor'
age in such a way as will preserve
navigation as our wisest and most
practical statesmen have deemed as
an essential to the public welfare
Senator Bankhead has perhaps CIV
en- more study to this dual question
of preserving and improving naviga-
ton and at the same time utilizing
waterpower than any other member
of congress. But on the whole ques-
ton of a comprehensive system, he
is what may be termed progressive
conservative.

elected their colleagues of the other
chamber. The Senate was actually
an upper" house; instead of being
an aristocracy of birth, like its proto
type in England, it was a selection
from the aristocracy of intellect Has
tily constructed and ill advised laws
sometimes passed by House of Rep
resentatives elected biennially), of.
ten with a view to affect the re-elec.
ton of the member proposing the
plan, were revised by men who could
be truthfully looked upon as the
greater statesmen.
But how is it now? While taking
an interest in politics, i. e. in affairs
of government, was regarded as
praiseworthy in the early days, even
the term politics has come to be
regarded as something approbrious,
as something that disqualifies a man
for his daily avocations, and in the
eyes of the average business man a
the professional gambler. The So
called solid business elements of
the States usually shun the Legisla-
ture as they do jury duty, with the
result that many go to the Legisla-
ture who have an ak of their own to
grind and by no means represent the
sentiment or intelligence of their con-
stituencies. The election of a Dem
ocratic Senator in Oregon by Repub-
lican Legislature at the request of the
people is a fair example of what the
Legislature would not have done if it
had been left free to choose a Sena-
tor.
Take it altogether it is much safer
to leave the matter of electing a Sen
ator in the hands of the people than
in the hands of the Legislature;
the selection be wise or 9TH
erwise, the man selected will at least
represent the choice of the people,
and, it will be well to have members
elected to the Legislature pledge
themselves to the election of the Sen
ator endorsed by the people. The
Democratic party organization of the
State should also recommend such &C.
ion, /. e., vote by the people in |
'ase vacancy is caused by death or |
'esignation of a Senator. Had we |
lad a primary election after the |
leath of Senator McLaurin, the State |
md the people would have been
spared all the unpleasant history of
ecent events in Jackson.

Alabama Senator Says No Better
Scheme of Expenditure Has Ever
Been Provided BY Congress.

No better waterway scheme of ex
penditure has ever been provided by
congress than the pending river AND
harbor appropriation bill. That is the
deliberate opinion of Senator John H
Bankhead, of Alabama, of the senate
commerce committee, who has been
directly and actively interested in
waterway legislation ever since 1889
when he entered the house as a rep
resentative from the sixth Alabama
district. He served ten terms as a
member of the rivers and harbors
committee In 1907, he was appoint
ed a member of the waterways com
mission Immediately following his
last term in the house. Senator Bank
head gained strength and recognition
in Alabama by his sagacious appre-
citation of her great waterways, the
Tennessee river, the Warrior, Tom
bigbee, Coosa and Alabama rivers
and Mobile harbor, the rivers traverS-
| ing the unequalled mineral belt of the
state and being susceptible of i'm
provement of incalculable value to
the commerce of the state But, with
all his loyal devotion to the water
ways of his own commonwealth, he
has been constantly vigilant and SEN
sible of the advantages of progress
in the improvement of navigation in
other states. His long experience en-
abled him to take broad nationwide
view of the great subject. AS a mem
Der of the rivers and harbors commit
tee of the house his work and coun-
sci were highly valued by every mem
Der of the committee, especially by
the chairman, Hon. Theodore Burton,
of Ohio, many years the chairman of
the committee, and now a colleague
of Mr.. Bankhead on the commerce
committee.
This exceptional experience in river
and harbor legislation, with its rare
opportunities of studying the question
of cheaper transportation by way of
deepening river channels and harbors,
so developed him that it made Senator
Bankhead one of the staunchest ad |
vocates of broad and comprehensive |
system of waterway improvement, and |
he thoroughly subscribes to the doc
trine of the National Rivers and Har
bors Congress for maintaining that |
policy by continuous annual appro
priation.
"The indications point to a deter
mination to appropriate annually at
least $50,000,000 for the i'm
orovement of the navigation of our
said Senator Bankhead
.oday. THAT there shall be no ces-
'ation of work upon projects well con-
,eived and approved by the army en-
sineers is now the prevailing view.
Until lately the engineers were re-
porting not oftener than once every
TWO years. Now the chief has in
'tructed his subordinates to have
heir reports and estimates prepared
Every year, so that the exigency of
annual appropriations may be ade-
luately met. Thus we are getting

ATHLETIC MECHANIC SEEKS POOR BRIDE Looking for His Ideal Among Humble and
 Lowly Here's Chance for Poor Girl to Claim Good Husband
 He Tells Why

Any girl between 20 and 30, Amer ican, German, Irish, French, or Ital- ian-American, who can prove that she is very, very poor has a chance to become the bride of a. stalwart. kind hearted, home loving mechanic living in the West End.
 George Bristol is his name. At his request his address has not been spread broadcast throughout the world, of girls who deem themselves eligible to become his bride. Any girl who wishes may communicate by address ing him through the General Delivery. He believes poor and honest working girl makes the best sort of housewife poses to seek his bride among the very poorest.
 "When I was fifteen my father died,'' he said today. T worked with all my might and kept the roof over the head of my mother and brothers, aged seven and nine: Three years later, when mother died, I wanted to take care of my brothers, but as I was a minor my married sisters and other relatives fnterfered and took them and the furniture away while I was off at work.
 "But I hired rooms, fitted them up sent for the little chaps and took CdT0 Ol tilcIII llII luSy WOIS DiS to care for themselves. It was a struggle. But I won out. Now I am alone again and want a cheerful home of my own. I have improved my condition till now I am able to offer some nice girl a husband a home.
 From what experience I have I know that poor girls have more heart, are more appreciative of good home and make better wives. Rich girls are vain and do not know how to run a house. Every man ought to marry. Bachelors and old maids should be taxed for their singleness. Home is the place for women and I hate to see girls working in shop.
 Beauty is only skin deep. Good looks are not necessary to happiness. If my wife had money I should feel I was in her debt. My wife must be between the ages of twenty and thirty. She may be a widow if she has not more than one child. As for nation ality, she may be American. German, Irish. French or Italian-American. Creed doesn't enter into the matter"

COSTLY HORSE MAY
 DIE AS RESULT OF
 FIENDISH BRUTALITY

On complaint of Joseph Beayles of 259 Spruce street that draught horse worth s225 is dying as the result of being stabbed with a pitchfork, the police today subjected several sus- poets taken into custody on suspicion, to questioning. Up to press hour they had not satisfied themselves as to who was guilty of the brutality.
 Bealyes told the police he under stood his horse had become unruly in Lesko's stables, Hancock avenue, sev- eral weeks ago and one of a num- Der of men who sleep in the barn had grasped a pitchfork and driven two prongs into the left thigh of the fractious animal The wound became infected and the horse, Bealyes says, will now probably die. In any event it's usefulness is impaired
