DEPEW OPPOSES
 DIRECT ELECTION Offers Amendment to Proposed
 Bill IT IMPERILS FRANCHISE New York Senator Believes It Is Only . Scheme to Allow Dominant Party to Disfranchise Its
 Opponents

Washington, January 24.-Opposition to the resolution now pending in the Senate calling for the popular election of mem- bers of that body in the several states was voiced today by Senator Depew of New York. MT. Depew, while opposing the proposition to so choose the senators, yet offered an amendment which would entitle all of the male citizens of the United States to cast their ballots in such elections.
 To the New York senator the proposed amendment to the constitution as report ed from the judiciary committee seemed but an effort under the guise popularizing the election of United States senators. to permit the states to disfranchise under the constitution large classes of their electors Instead of providing that sen- ators shall be elected by the people of the several states" said the senator, 'it virtually gives the people the right to elect senators by impairing the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the consti- tuition, which were intended to secure the elective franchise to all citizens of the United States"
 The speaker betrayed some apprehension that the passage of some such resolution would call forth an expression Of deter mined disapproval from the negro voters of the north, east and west, and that that protest would be registered in so effective way at the polls as to be felt all over the country.
 'The title of this proposition" said the senator, lis to allow the people to vote. The purpose and object of the res oution is permanently to prevent the peo- pie from voting in any state where a dominant power or oligarchy wishes to disfranchise a certain portion of the cit- izens of that state.'
 Mr. Depew dwelt upon the advantage that is claimed to lie in the experience that a senator gains through long reten- tion of his seat. Taking the governors of the states as an example and showing the comparatively brief tenure of their of fees, he drew what he considered would prove an analogy In the case of sem ators.
 He could foresee naught except rapid succession in office of men who would float in upon the tide of popular favor and out again as that tide might ebb.
 Partles are always seeKing paramount issues," he said. "The great leader of the democratic party made this question of changing the method of the election of United States senators, as he thought, the paramount issue. It failed to materialize, as he imagined it would, because there was no popular response, and there is none today.
 Tn this proposition we are called upon to disregard the overwhelming lessons of the past and to enter upon an untried experiment. to adopt theory which opens the door for innumerable possibili- ties of danger to the sovereignty of the states and wise conservatism in the ad- ministration of the government"

arrive at Sacramento within a
week. The nine switch engines are
also on the way westward. The
MaIlet Mogul which are a new
type of engine for the Southern
Pacific company have net yet been
delivered.
All of these new locomotives are
equipped with fuel burners. The
Mallet Conolidated locomotives are
known as the quadruple compound
Mallet type and are practically
two complete freight engines in
one. The cab is located in front
of the locomotive. thus protecting
the engineer and fireman from
smoke in passing through tunnels
and preventing the obstruction of
the view in rounding sharp curves.
These engines have 16 huge
drive wheels and are capable of
hauling a 1000 ton train over the
Sirra Nevada and Tehahapi grades,
three ordinary locomotives being
required to preform similar service
heretofore. The Mallet Mogul
locomotives are similar in con-
struction to the Mallet CONSOLE
dated, except that they consist of
two passenger locomotives con-
solidated into one. Briefly the
consolidated locomotive comprises
two sets of engines assembled
under one boiler. They are the
first of this type to be used by the
Southern Pacific company and will
be used in hauling she passenger
trains over the Sierra Nevada and
Tehachapi grades. 1t is expected
that al! of the new locomotives for
the Southern Pacific company will
be delivered within the next three
or four weeks.

PROF. YOUNG VISITS
.-~. LORENA OIL DISTRICT

Professor Young. geol ngist of
the Nevada University came in
from Reno this week and spent
several days in an examination of
the Lorena oil district. Prof.
YOUNG, in conversation with our
representative expressed himself IA
highly gratified with his visit.
Speaking of the formation, the
professor said that it WEE one of
the most interesting sections in
Nevada that he had ever visited,
from a geological stands Joints Not
only was it one of the oldest
formations Of Nevada but that the
sedime .Itary deposits Of the
tertiary had practically been un.
disturbed by volcanic or eruptive
commissions. He also said the
coast lines and other evidence Of a
sea. bays or lakes were dist inctly
outlined. The fossil beds were a
surprise to him wing to the great
depth and extent of their exposure
He also visited the beds of
prehistoric animal remains, one of
which he traced for GO feet. Hc
gave it as his opinion that they
were the vertehraes of the icbth.
yosarius, giant water lizard of
the miocene and pliorene periods.
Specimens were gathered Of the
different formations and fossils
and sent to the State university.
Professor stated that the section
was worthy Of the closest intvesti-
CATION by the worlds most noted
geolugists. He will return to
more thoroughly explored the
district in August and will be &C.
companied by other scientists -
Nina Miner.
