Adopts BristoW Amendment for
Federal Supervision
HOUSE May NOT FALL IN LINE
Said Lower Branch Will Not Accent
Change Made by the Upper
House Of Congress.

Washington, June 13.-The senate,
by vote Of Ga to "a, passed the reso-
luton amending the Constitution to
provide for the election of senators
by direct popular vote. The Bristow
amendment, giving to the federal gov
eminent supervision of such elections,
was adopted. The vote was "A to "A
and the vice president cast the de-
Gliding ballot.
The resolution for constitutional
amendment has passed the house and
now will go back to that body for con-
currence in the Bristow amendment.
The amended resolution now goes
into conference between the senate
and house and some senators pre-
dicted that the house would refuse to
accept it.
Adoption of the Bristow amendment,
which omitted the house provision
transferring supervision of senatorial
elections from congress to the state
legislatures, was made possible by Mr..
Clarke of Arkansas casting the only
Democratic vote for the proposition.
The tie on that ballot would have
been prevented if his vote had been
cast with his party, with whom he
later voted on adoption of the reso-
luton.
On this first ballot five Republicans,
Messrs. Borah, Gronna, La Toilette,
Poindexter and Works, all progress
sives, voted against the provision.
On the resolution as amended the
vote, Ga to "a, was six more than the
necessary two-thirds majority.
Sixteen Republican Negatives.
OF the twenty-four negative votes
eight were cast by Democrats and
sixteen by Republicans.
The debate soon drifted into po-
litieal affair. Democratic senators
criticised Senator Bristow's change Of
attitude. In the last session the Kan
sas senator voted against an amend
ment offered by Senator Sutherland
Of Utah which would have had the
same effect as his own provision of
this session.
Mr.. Bristow said that in both IN.
stances his attitude had been dictated
by his desire to do that which most
certainly would insure the success of
the popular election resolution.
Mr.. Davis of Arkansas, referring by
name to Senators Cummins, Clapp and
La Toilette, declared "the insurgent
crowd never have been sincere on any
subject they have brought before the
country"
The chair called Mr.. Davis to order
Mr.. Cummins denied Mr.. Davis state
ment.
Mr.. Bacon aroused feeling by de-
claring that great interests had been
bringing enormous pressure to bear to
defeat the resolution and Senators
Works, Guggenheim and Cummins re
futed the allegation. Mr.. Bacon ex
planned that he was imputing no i'm
propriety to any member.

The custom of draping our walls with
tapestries goes back to Anglo-Saxon
times when wall clothing" adorned the
hall on occasions of high festival or Of
ceremony. These were often enriched
with representations of heroes or scenes
from legends wrought in purple ana
other colors and were greatly esteemed
as gifts or legacies.
After the death of Brithnoth, Ealder-
man Of the East Saxons. in the battle Of
Maldon. in the year y94, his widow exc
cuted a tapestry illustrating the prin-
cipal episodes in his life and presented II

The American Temperament.
rth American Review.

rIon the NoTtn american hnvlew.
1t is a curious but inevitable irony
that the American temperament, so no.
torious for it's overweening confidence
and self-esteem, should be of all tenn
peraments least reflective. and( for all its
should know itself so
Ill. When criticized, It is either perplexed
or amused; when challenged. apologetic-
ally boastful. and seemingly deie It's in
misconception and Misrepresentation. A
striking instance OF this singular trait is
the way Americans abroad exaggerate
their native mannerisms and become
ver1table caricatures of themselves in
good-natured mimicry OF the national
type. In i.s extreme form the tendency
might be characterized as living up to
libel to save the trouble and expense
of legal proceedings. Whether this be
due 20 sort of mistaken chivalry or to
mere childish irresponsibility Is as hard
to determine as it Is unnecessary-either
is reprehensible. There Is in this de-
pendence upon foreign opinion something
Of q native shrewdness for judging 9TH
ers by their opinion OF ones SELF but
much more is to be attributed to an In
stinctive aversion from the pangs of In
trospection and childish capacity for
using other people as mirrors No other
nation. perhaps, has played SO sensa-
tional a role but no other nation has
stood SO in need Of its, audience. The
histrionic demeanor of Americans abroad.
at times so very like the behavior of
actors off the stage. exacting calcium
light duty OF the sun. is real clue to
the national temperament. II only by
the reactions Of others do we achieve
any definite notion of what We ourselves
are, ii is small wonder that we have
cultivated the actors manner and prac-
tice his arts. only 1t Is a strange art for
an otherwise tnartistic nation, curious
dependence for q free people.
