Over in the senate, the democrats, aid
ed by a handful of insurgent republi-
cans, are keeping the faith by an honest
and earnest endeavor to submit a con-
stitutional amendment providing for the
election of United States senators by
popular vote. OF course the house will
pass it with a whoop as it has done in
five congresses. There never has been a
sound or sensible argument advanced
against that proposition. The closer

the great body of the people, the better

with the man afraid to trust them.
Such a man is a very unreliable guide,

thing by adopting the Oregon plan until
election by popular vote can be legaliz-

After Violators of City
Ordinance

Following the reading of the report
of C. o. Russell, chief of the fire de-
partment, at the meeting of the city
council Tuesday night, the police de-
partment was instructed to enforce
the fire ordinance to the letter.
In his report to the council, Chief
Russell brought out the fact that there
are many violations of the fire ordi-
nance in Devils Lake. He called parti-
cular attention to a number of alleys
where waste is allowed to accumulate
thus endangering the nearby buildings
should fire start.
The attention of the council was also
called to the building ordinance, which
it was shown, is not being lived up to
in that contractors and builders are
not securing permits from the city en-
gineer as prescribed in the ordinance.
The council approved the assess
ment for the special improvements in
the form of sidewalks.
The present ordinance regulating
city scales was amended in an ordi-
nance introduced by Alderman john
son and prepared by Chief Russell.
The new law provides that the mayor
name as many scales official" as is
necessary, the council to approve the
mayors action.
