MARITIME AND
DIRECT VOTE
discusses Jersey Situation
With Senator Hepburn.
tFro,a the NEVIS CORRESPONDENT


Washington, Nav 27:-Deter-
mined that the fact that public SEN
timent in New Jersey is strongly in
favor of the direct election of United
States senators should not be over
looked In the discussion on the pro-
posed amendment to the Constitution
to provide for a popular choice. Sen
ator MARITIME did not hesitate to in
form the Senate to this effect in re-
ply to an inference to the contrary
in a speech by Mr.. Hepburn, of Ida
no. Discussing the question OF
whether or not there was a serious
demand for a change in the Consti-
tuition in this respect, the Idaho SEN
ator said:
Il have taken some pains, in fact
l have the record of the proceedings
by the various legislatures, to find
out how much consideration the
question has received, and l chal-
lenge any senator to show me that
$he matter received in any legisla-
ture where the resolution was adopt
cd such consideration as would be
gwen to a measure of the least i'm
portance. 1t has been brought for
ward in response to the cry and the
appeal of the selfish interests of self
serving men,"
Marines Reply.
Senator MARITIME considered the
statement Of Mr.. Hepburn erroneous
so far as New Jersey is concerned.
He said:
I'm relation to the senator's state
ment that this measure is in behalf
of and is demanded by the selfish in
terests and not by the people, !
protest. Every Democratic conven-
ton in the state of New Jersey, coun-
ty as well as state, and as well as the
Republican conventions, county and
state, have declared unequivocally
for this change, and "the interests
have been decidedly against it. The
senator is utterly wrong in his posi-
ton"
Diverting from the set speech he
had prepared, Senator Hepburn COM
mented on Senator Marines re-
marks as follows:
Mr.. President, I do not use tbs
word Interests" in the same sense
as the senator from New Jersey uses
it. l have never, at least, gone sc
far as to denominate one class of peo-
pie ''the interests and the other
the people" They are each of them
to me individuals, and each of them
stands upon his own merits. have
known some very bad poor men and
some very bad rich men, and [ have
known some very good rich men and
some very good poor men, I do not
classify them. The senator speaks
of the action of the state of New
Jersey in regard to this matter.
have the record of the action of the
state of New Jersey and before
close I will advise the senator exact
ly as to the record of the state o
New Jersey upon this question"
Mr.. Hepburn finished his speecl
for the day without supplying tn
record of the action of the state o
New Jersey which he promised. bu
1t Is understood that before the de
bate on the subject is finished h.
Will state what he understands to h.
the situation in New Jersey.

FEED YOUR MONEY.
Feed Your Brain, and it Will Feed You
Money and Fame.

"Ever since boyhood I have been
especially fond Of meats, and 1 am con
WINGED / ate too rapidly, and failed to
mastieate my food properly.
"Ths result was that I found myself
a few years ago, afflicted with all
ments Of the stomach, and kidneys,
which interfered seriously with my
business.
CAT last I took the advice of
friends and began to eat Grape-Nuts
instead of the heavy meats, etc, that
had constituted my former diet.
81 found that I was at once benefited
by the change, that / was soon reliev-
ed from the heartburn and indigestion
that used to follow my meals, that the
pains in my back from my kidney af-
lection had ceased.
"My nerves, which used to be I'M
steady, and my brain, which was slow
and lethargic from a heavy diet Of
meats and greasy foods, had, not in
a moment, but gradually, and none the
less surely, been restored to normal ef-
fciency.
"Now every nerve is steady and my
brain and thinking faculties are quick
or and more acute than for years past.
"After my old style breakfast I
used to suffer during the forenoon
from a feeling of weakness which him
dered me seriously in my work, but
since | began to use Grape-Nuts food
l can work till dinner time with all
case and comfort" Name given by
