THE sENATE's AGREEMENT.

The u. S. Senate, in lis adoption OF
the resolution amcndatory Of the con
stitution as TO the method of electng
U. 5. Senators, has instead of elfecting
any progress, merely put the whole
matter again in the air. BY the adop.
ton of the Bristow amendment an
awkward attempt is made To continue
the assertion of the National super
vision over Senatorial elections, and
this is likely to render the adoption of
the amendment uncertain, because Of
the opposition Of the Southern States
to it,
There is no reason whatever why this
matter should he complicated in the
way that the Senate seems determined
to do. II would be perfectly easy to
precisely as ii is, save only as 10 the
changing OF the method Of election.
And we do not understand why it is
that there is the ipsistence on the part
Of the Senate of putting in this goad TO
Southern CONSTITUENCIES. II the ameuds-
tory resolution said nothing whatever
about this. but left the constitution as
to this precisely as it stands, there
could be no such antagonism raised.
But the Senate seems determined to
provoke that antagonism, and is con-
stantly putting in the nagging PROPOSE
tion. But it is probable that the
House viii agree to the amendment
of the Senate rather than see the
proposition fail.
And yet it is hard to see what is to
be gained by the adoption of this
amendment, even supposing three
fourtbS OF the States agreed that it
should be put into the constitutions for
it is perfectly open to any State TO
choose its Senators by popular vote.
This can be done in either of two ways.
First, by the primary method, which is
in use in considerable number of the
States already, where the people vote
direct at primary elections in express
ing their choice for Senator. and the
Legislatures officially ratify that choice.
In the South generally this method pre-
walls, it prevails in Oregon, and led to
the forced election by Republican
legislature Of Mr.. Chamberlain. Dem
ocrat, because Chamberlain was the
popular choice for Senator.
Another method whereby States un.
questioDably could fix the elections Of
United States Senators by popular
vote, would be for the parties to make
nominations either in primaries or con
ventiops, and place on the ticket the

Senator. Then the Legislature would
elect that choice, whether Republican
or Democrat, as the case might be,

practically to the same thing as the

the constitution evidently contemplated
that il should be- In case of the lcgis-
lafure rstifying the popular choice for
Senator by formal election, the change
would be precisely the same as that
made whereby the electoral college is

formally the function which the cousti.
tuition sought TO vest in it as an indie
pendent body, acting upon its own
initiative. We therefore see no particu-
lar advantage in the propositions of
either the Senate or Of the House. The
chief difference that is noticeable, is
that the change would he made com.

is at present, and IT seems TO us that,
after all, the optional basis is really
the best to work from in popular
government.

LIQUOR Law OMISSION.

An instructive commentary upon the

proof of his guilt appears TO have been

vindicate the law was done until Olsen
came up for sentence on account of his

once that the old law providing penal.

Frank y. Gardner. counsel for Icha-

from Judge Waller of the court Of
common pleas an injunction restrain
ms the defendant from Interfering
with the plaintiff in the relayine of a
water pipe leading TO his property and
giving him permission to do the work

tiOn is temporary and returnable to the

The property of the persons con-
cerned receives water from two springs

years. The defendant has owned
property there about 10 years and by
her deed has a pipe line right across

was trouble in the pipes an effort was
made TO repair one of them. 1t is
claimed that the defendant changed
the pipe line by relaying some of the
old pine and thus cut off the supply
from the plaintiff Trouble followed
when the ATTEMPT was made 10 replace
the pipe line which had been cut out
and the Injunction was secured.
