An Interesting Department Now Running In
The Boston Journal.
We can hardly realize that only fifty
years ago, from the towns aud cities IN
which we now live, men were rushing to
the South to take up arms against their
countrymen in the greatest civil war in
history. Nor can we appreciate the
eagerness with which news from the
front was sought 10y those left behind,
nor the difficulty in sending informa-
ton in those days, when the telegraph
was in its infancy and the telephone
was unknown.
The Boston Journal was particularly
fortunate to have Charles Carleton COT
fin as their representative with the Union
Army. Physically unable to enlist, he
sought position as correspondent, aud
served The Journal throughout the var.
Often it was possible for him to get in
touch with The Journal only after a
hard ride on horseback to the telegraph
office. but he never lost courage. and Of.
tentimes The .Iourual gave the world
the first news of actions vital to the sue
cess of the North. One of his great
scoops" was on the Battle of Gettys.

Popular Election of United
States Senators.

The Senate the other day rejected the
House bill providing for the election of
U. S. senators by popular vote. This
proposition has been before the House
four different times and passed, twice
unanimously. 1t has never been con-
Cured in by the Senate. That body
seems determined to stand in the way
and block the growing demand for a
change. But the change is bound to
come and that at no very distant day.
Popular feeling is growing that the time
has come for a change in the mode of
electing U. S. Senators. For this feel
ing the Senate itself is largely respon-
slble. The ease with which candidates
for the Senate have suborned state leg
islatures has had the effect of creating a
feeling of distrust in the popular MUD.
1t is notorious that in the election of
senators, Legislatures are not governed
by the will of their constituency. Men
with no qualification whatever for the
high Office have been elected to repre-.
sent sovereign states in the National
Assembly the highest Legislative body
in the world-for no other reason than
| personal ambition hacked m nv a LARGE
bank account. Hence the feeling that
the will of the people of state eau best
be carried out by the election Of Their
senators by direct vote of the people
themselves.
To do this it will be necessary tc
amend the Constitution. And bill tc
amend must pass both Houses of Con
gress by two-thirds vote, or by con
vention, if ratification were secured
