ELECTION
WILL PASS CONGRESS
House will Insist it Be
Made Law Before
Any Other

WASHINGTON, March 1s.-Im-
mediately after the new congress
convenes in special session on
April 4, the house will pass the
constitutional amendment provid-
ing for the election of senator's by
direct vote of the people without
further delay or parley will send,
it over to the senate for consider
alton.
The New York Americans res
olution for popular election of
United States senators which now
has passed a majority of the leg
islatures of the states will now
have accomplished it's purpose
through the action of congress in
calling a constitutional conven-
ton.
At the same time the house will
pass the bill admitting Arizona
and New Mexico as states and
will present it to the senate for
action.
Both of these events will take
place before any kind of tariff leg
islation is so much as mention
ed.
1t became known today that the
Democratic members of the ways
and means committee have decid-
ed on their course of action, so
far as the opening program is con-
cerned. No debate will be permit
ted in the house on the constitu-
tional amendment or the bill adj
hitting Arizona and New Mexico
as states. The Democratic major
ity will pass both of them without
trouble.
The Importance of this amend
ment is so well impressed on. the
Democrats that it will be part of
their earliest contribution TO the
legislative. program with the in
tention of overcoming any at
tempts at delay to which it may be
submitted.
Action one way other is swhat
the Democrats demand, If the
shows an intention of talking the a
ment to death throughout the sv
ing hot months of summer, the
Gratis will be perfectly willing to a
modate it. There will be plenty OF
for filibustering or lengthy oratoric
hibitions between members between
and the first Monday in Decembei
if by that time the amendment ha
been acted upon, it will be disht
again to the senate when the RI
session of the Sixty-second cone
convenes. a few days later.

coming out Of Cappadocia for several
years, and by a chain of indications,
some of them obtained on the spot by
Chantre in 1890, had been traced to
Boghaz-Keui. The well-known orien-
talist, Hugo Winckler, began the sys-
tematic search in 1906 and lighted at
once on tablets. In 1907 he got more,
most of them from the ruins Of the
great building referred to above.
which proved to have been palace
or rather, two palaces of different
dates. one being built partly over the
other. In a word, he found remains
of royal archives, written In cunei-
form script, but partly In the Baby
lonian language, partly In tongue
unknown. The first kind was readily
deciphered; the other is yielding Its
secrets only to slow and painful labor.
But already We have learned enough
to- convince the most hardened scep-
tic that history had forgotten a
great DEAL This is, however. to do his
tory some injustice. She had not
entirely forgotten the kings of Bog
haz-Keui, but we could not under
stand her records: Egyptian inscrip-
lions of the eighteenth and nineteenth
Gynasties mention four kings of the
Khita under circumstances which i'm
ply that theirs was no mean power;
but the texts give no indication that
those kings ruled elsewhere than in
Syria, where the Pharaohs and their
officers came into contact with them.
All these four names have now been
found in the Boghaz-Keui archives. to-
