SEES DANGER TO NEGRO VOTE
Senator Depew Declares Move is on
to Disfranchise.
DIRECT VOTE IDEA IS MEANS
Depew shows How Proposed Amend
ment for Direct Vote Would
knock out Fourteenth
Amendment.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.--Cspecial Tele-
gram THAT the adoption of the amend
ment to the constitution providing for the
election OF United States senators by direct
vote Of the people as proposed in the res
olution now before congress, may annul
the Fourteenth amendment and make con-
stitutonal laws in the south disfranohising
the negro, f. the statement made by Sen
atcr Chauncey NJ. Depew in an interview
today.
''The Joint resolution now before the
senate" said Senator Depew, for the cleo
ton OF United States senators by the peo-
pie. fixes the qualifications Of electors to
vote for United States senators In this
law.
ELECTORS in each state shall have the
qualifications requisite for electors Of the
most numerous branch of state legislators
In other words. the qualifications shall be
fixed by the state legislators.
states Use Various Means.
The Fourteenth amendment guaranteed
10 the negroes the right to vote and states
by various devices have DISTINGUISHED
them. Take Mississippi, for instance. With
J 10000 people It casts on an average,
think from s0oO0 TO $1,000 votes. Under
this resolution. allowing by constitutional
amendment the state to fix the uualifics-
lions Of electors, It repeats the Fourteenth
amendment. which says that every citizen
n years OF age. who has not engaged In
the rebellion and has not committed
crime. shall be entitled to vote
MY proposition is that the qualifications
OF electors Tor United States senators and
congressman shall be uniform in all states
and that congress shall make laws to see
hat the votes aTe properly registered and
counted. When I offered this amendmen,
TO this same resolution 10 the committe,
on privileges and elections six years ago /,
was adopted by unanimous vote Of the re-
pubncans. Then the democratic senators

deal OF temper advocating the Mann
amendment sStd that II the negroes were
permitted TO vote they did not want tAe
election OF United States senators by the
people and would not have II. They killed

EASY AND sure WAY
TO CURE COLDS
Don't Neglect a Cold, Stop it
in the Sneezing Stage.
Use EIy's Cream Balm.

A cold generally attacks the weakest
part, affecting the eyes and ears in some
and producing nasal catarrh and throat
troubles in others. A cold is due to an in
fammation of the membrane lining the air
passages, and may be promptly cured with
a little Ely's Cream Balm, which immedi-
ately relieves the inflammation and all the
distressing symptoms, such as sneezing,
coughing, running at the nose and eyes,
hoarseness, sore throat, fever and head
ache. One reason why this pure, antisep-
tic Balm acts so quickly is because it is ap-
piled directly to the tender, sore surfaces.
Even in severe, chronic cases of catarrh,
Ely's Cream Balm never fails to quickly
and effectually check the poisonous dis
charge which clogs the head and throat,
causing the disgusting hawking, splitting
and blowing of the nose. This remedy net
only drives out the rottenness, but heals
and strengthens the weakened and diseased
membranes, thus ending catarrh for all
time.
Catarrh is filthy, disgusting disease
Don't put up with it another day. Get a
so cent bottle of Elys Cream Balm from
your druggist to-day; or, if your case
requires spraying Of the nose, throat or
ears, call for Ely's Liquid) Cream Balm.

II is the antedeluvian plan and was
used by Father Noah on his famous
cruise. Each man may have a light
i'm front of his place if he will pay
fer it. Some have them and some
don't. As a result one block may be
wen lighted while another is dark. A
man who buys a lamp may get any
thing he wants if he will dig up. He
can have five globes or three. He
can have bright lights or dim. He
can turn them on when he wants to

There is no uniformity about the plan
and never will be until the system is
