"Tha United states Senate always has

balance wheel Of the government. 1t can
only be that SO long as its members are
kept independent Of and free from, the
influence OF temporary, spasmodic, popu-

step to popular representation. An addi-
tional amendment to the Constitution, for
example. granting each state with a popu-
latton Of less than one million two sena-
tors and In states having more than one
million population an additional senator
for each additional million Inhabitants or
major fraction thereof, needs only to be
suggested to demonstrate how popular 1t
would be in states where additional rep

This Is too radical and far-reaching a
change to be railroaded through under
the threat OF a fiilibuster. The danger
signal is out. 1t is time to halt and COM

careful consideration"

BEN MURRAY

for the alleged killing Of Oscar Chit
wood, was yesterday admitted to
sureties.
bond in the sum OF $4,000 for his
making final answer to the circuit
court Whenever the case against him
shall be called.
The admission Of Murray to bond
was no surprise to those who had
followed the case, since after the
acquittal of Rutherford it was known
that counsel for Murray were nrglng
that he be given trial, and the al
tentative Of setting his case at some
not far distant date. or giving him
bond, was not to be denied
The bond wss in the sum of $4,000
and was signed by DIR. ]. w. Me
Clendon, A. G. Houpt, j. w Fulton,

Immediately after securing the
order Of court. attorneys had the
bond signed. and then the news was
announced to Murray who was per-
mitted to go at liberty. He went
home first and after spending a
while there, came back down town
among his friends.
It is not believed now that the
Murray case will be disposed Of at
this term OF court. If Murray nal
been denied liberty unaer bond his
counsel would have had an urgent
plea for a trial at this term Of court
but now that he has temporary lin
erty, they will probably agree for the
case to go over If the prosecuting at
