The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1911-01-17
Election to be by
Direct Vote Of People
New Amendment to Constitution Of
fered by Borah Of Idaho.

washington, Jan. l3.-Inat the
Senate at this session must face the
question whether the constitution
shall be amended so as to require the
election of senators by direct vote of
the people, was made apparent today
A vote, which many senators consid-
cred test of sentiment resulting
largely In favor of the proposition.
The matter came up in the Senate
in connection with the Joint resolu-
ton for the amendment of the consti-
tuition recently from the committee on
judiciary
When that resolution was reached
on the calendar, Mr.. Kean was ready
with an objection which prevented
immediate consideration under the or.
der of business.
Mr.. Gallinger appealed to Mr. Kean
TO withdraw his objection He con
scented, and the Senate election res.
olution was launched upon it's legis.
lative voyage.
The situation was such as to arouse
the immediate interest of the senators.
Mr. Sutherland was prompt in OBJ
tanning the attention of the chair. He
wanted to amend the resolution so as
to strike out the provision giving the
state legislatures supervision of slec.
tons, and making other changes
M - ~ OF Oh, pIx 81
the committee resolution, suggested
that as the amendment went to the
heart Of the question, there should be
time for consideration.
Hale Moved to Adjourn.
Mr. Rayner did not press his point,
but his plea was taken up by Sena-
tor Hale of Maine, whose position on
the merits of the measure is diamet-
rically opposite. He was sure that
the resolution could be acted upon
without protracted debate.
He urged deliberate movement and
precipitately moved an adjournment
The first vote was viva voce,
"The ayes appear to have it." an
nounced the chair.
Never" exclaimed a half dozen
senators. Let us have the ayes and
nays"
Accordingly roll call was ordered
with the result that forty-three out
of sixty senators present voted
against adjournment OF the forty
three negative votes twenty-three
were cast by Republicans.
Encouraged by this, Senator Borah
prepared to press consideration Wig.
orously He did not desire to prevent
debate, he said, and added he would
not do so II he could obtain the con-
sent of the senate to name a day for
a vote on the resolution and all
amendments. He suggested Tuesday,
January "a.
For probably ten minutes the mem
bers of the senate discussed the de-
tails of the proposition.
Hepburn Spoiled Plan.
Even Senator Hale appeared to fall
in with the request. Mr.. Borah's col
league, Senator Hepburn, had not
said a word up to this time, but
when the chair put the request for
unanimous consent he said NO" and
spoiled the entire plan.
Mr.. Borah seemed displeased and
proceeded to discuss the situation
saying the Sutherland amendment ano
other amendments, which by thi'
time had been presented by Senators
Depew and Nelson.
Mr.. Cullom made request for al
executive session. Such requests by
the Illinois senator fell on 'unheedint
ears. This was no exception.
After brief session the Senate ad
journed until Monday.

DOVER WARS
ON THE DOGS
Mayor Orders Round Up Of
all MOnerelS That Roam
There

DOVER, Del, Aug. 1.-THE dog
proposition was fully discussed in
Council at its first August meeting,
when Mayor Mayer brought up the
subject of enforcement of the dog ordl-
nances requiring all persons owning
dogs to muzzle them during the dog
days or between July 1 and September
Is.
The mayor explains that he had not
instructed the police to proceed
against owners of dogs unmuzzled
because. after a study of the matter.
be believed that muzzling defeated
rather than aided the cause for which
Il was proposed. Well kept and train
I'd dogs about town, whose owners are
responsible are not dangerous and
would be driven almost to madness,
irritated in the hot weather, kept from
drinking water freely and otherwise
chafed by the muzzle. He did not be-
lieve in muzzling.
The danger from dogs, the mayor
contented, was in the stray or owner
less dogs that prowl about town, day
and night. The stray, NANCY and un-
4 fed dog is the more subject to rabies.
He had ordered the police to round
these up or kill on sight in the most
humane manner possible. He believ-
ed that when dogs that could not be
properly cared for we're eliminated
the dog question would be practically
disposed Of
Council, by unanimous. vote. upheld
the mayor in this action and the police
we're instructed TO go and dispatch
tramp dogs and not require the muz-
zle.
Owners Liable TO Fine.
II is not generally known. but it is
law that person who keeps a barking
dog. dog that upsets the peace and
tranquility of night is liable to a fine
or Imprisonment.
Keeping a vicious dog, is of course,
against the law and the owner is not
only liable to fino and Imprisonment
but to heavy damages If he has prop
arty and his dog should bite a person.
tt is also unlawful to harbor a dog
known to be with distemper or com
municable disease or an owner to al
law female dog to run the streets at
certain periods.

MANY CARS TO
HANDLE PEACHES
Refrigerator and VentlIatOr
Cars Rushed to DeIOWare
Peninsula

Although the peach crop in the
Delaware peninsula is not so good as
last year, the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company is sending a large number
Of refrigerator and ventilator cars
to handle this years crop. The cars
will be stored or side tracks and will
be ready for immediate use as the
peaches are brought in from the or
chards. Trains will then be made
up as rapidly as loaded cars accumu-
late and the cars Will be rushed TO
the market on passenger train sche-
dulles.
It is impossible DO estimate the
number Of baskets that will make up
the Delaware seasons output. For
the past two years IL has amounted
to nearly 100000 baskets and IL has
taken in the neighborhood af $500
cars to handle the output.
Through relations largely cultivated
by traffic officers of railroads, the
shippers are finding it worth while
TO ship TO interior points, such as
Utica, Providence. Elmira, Albany.
Williamsport. Trenton and Harris
burg, instead of pouring the whole
ouNlt iillo NEW lOlhs FnlldQclpnld OF
Boston, with the attendant possibility
of gluting the market
The peach season is about at its
height in Georgia. II is estimated
that the total output from that state
will be 100000 more baskets than
I'm 1909. Nearly 5000 carloads have
been already forwarded to market.
California, too, will furnish large
supply.
An extraordinary rapid movement
OF the Georgia crop is being made this
year. Peaches are moving from Fort
Valley, the center of the Georgia pro-
ducing district, TO New York in as
hours. Only a few years ago II re-
quired a week Dor Georgia peaches to
get TO New York, most of the shipping
then being done by boat. BY reason
Of the development of the refrigerator
car and the quick movement of the
perishable freight trains, growers in
any part Of the country are finding
Il possible 10 place their product in
fine condition at the most favorable
markets
