we should choose cur Senators, ii would
have been but a short step to further
dictation, which might eventually have
run to Government bayonets at our
polls The wisdom OF the House in
refusing the amendment is therefore
palpable to the most casual observer.
OF course, il the House had accept
ed the Senate Interpolation, that would
not have made the bill law. Fortu-
nately the people themselves are the
last court Of appeals in all questions of
constitutional change; but the House
saved them the unnecessary trouble Of
rebuking Bristow and his colleagues.
Any legitimate change in Senatorial
elections that would do away with the
secret sale Of seats through the corrup-
ton funds OF big interests would be
welcomed by the public. But the States
are not yet ready to have the Bristow
brand Of Washington dictation and in-
reference.
When the State governments become
too corrupt or too inane. then it will be
time for federal control OF these cleo
tons The present form Of legislative
elections is more acceptable to the peo-
pie than the proposed Washington cleo
ton, colored as it would be by the po-
litieal party that held the national reins.

Direct Senatorial Elections.

When the move to so change the
Constitution as to allow the people to
elect their Senators by direct vote in
stead of through the Legislatures, as
originally planned was inaugurated, it
was with the idea Of giving the people
themselves as much power as possible.
There was no thought in the minds Of
those who originated the plan to in
crease the hold OF the Federal Govern
ment on the privileges Of the indiyid-
ual States. The threat of the Force
bill found no echo in the proposed new
method
1t was in this spirit that the House
passed the bill and sent it on to the SEN
ate and it was in the Senate that it
struck its first snag. Recent scandals
in connection with certain Senatorial
seats had prepared the way for a change
to direct elections. the people seeing
chance to eliminate the bribery schemes
that had tainted the house Of law-mak-
ers by making the election field too wide
for such concentrated corruption.
But Senator Bristow saw chance to
curtail the power Of the States by add
ing to the House bill vicious amend
ment that placed all control and regu-
lation of United States Senators in the
hands Of the general government, and
he tackled this amendment to the bill
and the Senate passed it.
Happily, however, for States rights,
the bill had to be returned to the House
for ratification OF the amendment and
by majority Of fifty votes il was re-
iected. Those fifty votes saved the
States individually from voting on and |
repudiating a change
in the Constitution which would have
created natioRal Senatorial machine
for whatever party happened to be in
power in Washington. With the cen
trail government saying when and how

achievements seems paradoxical, but in
all probability it is true. There are ex-
ampIes. however, Of great men who
never reached the Presidency. The
greatest men America has produced
did not serve as chief magistrate Of the
nation. The exceptions are those who
did reach the Presidency, notably
Washington and Lincoln but Daniel
Webster, Henry Clay, John G. Cal
houn, jefferson Davis and James G.
Blaine were among the great American
national figures, men Of towering in
telIect and craftsmanship, who have not
been honored with the highest Office in
the gift OF the people. Bryan. the
twentieth century prophet and states
man, will in all likelihood join these
ranks.
But the issues the Nebraska states
man has brought to light and life will
continue to grow and stimulate the
patriotism Of American manhood, and
the day will come when bis enemies, as
well as his friends, will be compelled to
acknowledge his greatness.

Bryan.

A pathetic figure is that OF William
Jennings Bryan. Thrice defeated, the
very principles involved were those he
had championed and. through his al
most single-handed efforts, impressed
upon the people until national politics
are thoroughly infused and the people
aroused as they have never been. The
lamentable fact is that The succession of
defeats has made his candidacy inn
practicable for another campaign, while
the principles, the everlasting, rock
ribbed principles Of equal rights, are
living issues springing from the life
work of the Boy Orator Of The Platte,
now the great commoner. To say
that Bryan's candidacy would be haz-
ardous to the realization OF his own

Governor Wilson.

Governor Woodrow Wilson, of New
Jersey, seems to be reaching very rap
idly the point that entities him to be
called the logical candidate of the Dem
ocratic party for the Presidency. As
far as this paper is concerned it is ready
to announce its support OF Wilson.
Governor Wilson is a native Tennes-
sean. He was formerly resident of
GAINESVILLE, but that is a matter of very
smaN importance compared to the fight
he has made in New Jersey. Standing
up against the aggression OF the great
est combipations OF capital he has con-
quered his own State AS leader he
was solitary figure in this fight, and
yet he is in control to-day, routing the
strongest influence in the world, the
corruption fund Of millions and the
leaders and minions OF privileged power.
He is in absolute control OF New Jersey
politics and he was elected by the masses
OF both the Democratic and Republican
parties. Governor Wilson has won the
greatest fight ever made in American
politics, and will win still greater fight
if favored with the Democratic nominal
ton. As it looks to us the only hope
Of Democracy to-day is the nomination
of Wilson. The progressives are in the
saddle, and the party that failsto recog-
nize this fact will go down ins defeat
II the Democrats nominate Harmon OF
Clark and the Republicans nominate
LaFollette or some other progressive
the Republican party will still be in
power, but should Wilson and Taft be
the nominees OF the parties, respect
lively. the Democrats will win, unless
the present political upheaval subsidies,
and there isApo likelihood OF change
IN that respect
It will be the peoples and not the
politicians fight next year, aud the
party might as well stand aside that
does not recognize that fact. The
municipalities first felt the effects Of
reform; then came some OF the States.
The movement is spreading and will
continue until the nation itself is
purged,
Governor Wilson is the logical leader
Of this reform, and he should be by all
means the Democratic nominee. The
conservative politician has no place in
the present contingency. He stands
for nothing. His pledges are meaning
less, and his promotion would be moth
ing more nor less than calamity, be-
cause it would mean practically con-
tinuation Of the present rule. The
signs are that long before the time for
the convention the politician will not be
put to any trouble in selecting the
nominee. The people viii relieve him
OF that task, and the choice will be
Woodrow Wilson.

Bethel Courier.

The Bethel Courier is the name Of
the Bethel school journal, published in
the interest Of the Cumberland Presby-
terrain school at Bethel. The paper is
edited by the faculty and students and
is filed with some most interesting
topics and discussions. The book is
thirty-four pages and credit to the
school. Bethel College is the leading
school Of the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church The university at Lebanon,
formerly the church school, is now I'M
der the supervision Of the Presbyterian
Church, U. S. A. Bethel, therefore,
takes the lead, and this school is making
determined effort to take its place
among the leading schools of the South.
As soon as the church property at
Lebanon is out Of litigation a still
stronger effort, perhaps, will be made
to strengthen the Bethel school, and it
is more than likely that Bethel, instead
OF Cumberland University, will continue
the literary and theological school Of
the Cumberland Presbyterian Church.
