THE COMING ELECTION OF SEN
ATORS


A Washington dispatch to the Louis
Vile Courier-Journal says: Senator
Borah Of Idaho. prime mover in the
cause of direct elections of United
States senators. believes that the next
batch of senator's will be elected by the
people voting under a new federal
statute. He declares that he is going
into the 10 states where legislatures
meet this winter to do all in his power
to secure legislative ratification of the
constitutional amendment providing for
direct elections. Two, states-Massa-
chusetts and AriZona-have already
ratified the proposed amendment. When
the endorsements of 80 states have
been secured congress will be empow-
cred to pass legislation providing ma
chinery for the direct election of sena-
tors. Every voter qualified to vote for
members Of the state house of reprs-
sentatiyes will then be able TO cast his
personal ballot for a United States
senator"
Illinois should be right on the firing
line in this fight. II is the duty Of ILL
nois to do something positive to help
bring this great and needed reform to
which the democratic party in state
and nation is pledged.

 From a side entrance a parade flleJ into the hall Banners hearing the names of 20 New York counties and the words Wilson and Win were carried by the marchers. Wilson ban ners of every description fell into line The New Jersey, Texas md Pennsylvania standards swung into the procession.
 Many of the marchers were not delegates, but outsiders and specta tors. Haif q dcze,: uniformed messefs- ger boys went into the parade. Big Wilson banners were hung over the edge of the galleries when the dem onstration begun One of these aa- nouneed Wilson as the Yankee Doodle-D Dixie Candidate
 One of the marehers carried in a big rooster that was held on high by an enthusiast who climbed into the press stand Meantime the crowd kept up terrific din, whistilg, cheering and blowing horns. A score of parti-colored umbrellas were raised and some of the spectators in the galleries began throwing improyised confetti among the delegates.
 An attempt was made to carry the N nson banners to the platform fol- lowing the example of the Clark ad- ff. yention ordered them down and they continued their parade about the hail. Meantime Mir Westcott stood waiting an opportunity to speak
 At 3:l0 the Wilson enthusiasts had held sway for one hour and no at tempt had been made to restore r der or clear the aisles.
 One of the Underwood delegates from Alabama, apparently resentile the intrusion of tne Wilson marching clubs from outside the hall, address s1 the chair with megaphone:
 "Mr Chairman. please notify all these bellboys and walters that we will need them at the hotel this morn 1 ing for breakfast"
 At 3:15 d. m. the Wilson people passed the record of the Clark boom CTS earlier fh the session--one ho'l and five minutes The demonstration however, was diminishing. At 3:15 a. m. the Wilson demon stratiun passed the record made by | the Clark people earlier in the ses- sion. It had been under way an houi and five minutes. At this time the mise began to subside and the sergeant al arms started to clear the asles, the police assisting.
 At 3:20 order had been more oi less restored Then sumeone brought an electric automobile horn in the hall and pandemonium broke loose again.

 "The problem Of the cities Is one of the greatest confronting this country, he said. Forty three percent of the population of the United States live In cities and 12 percent live in Chicago, New York and Philadelphia. Army statistics tend to show that men com ing from the great cities are not as robust as those coming from the coun- iry. There is no reason why this should be if the cities are plannei properly"
