Washington. = Direct election OF
United States senators by the people
was authorized and made compulsory
Tuesday, when the Connecticut legisla-
ture ratified the constitutional amend
ment submitted by Congress less than
a year ago. Ratification already had
been given by So states. The situa-
ton that results throughout the coun-
try, where many legislatures have adj
journed until 1915, is such as to leave
confusion in the minds of members of
the Senate, as to how the early steps
toward direct election OF senators will
be carried out.
While the proclamation of the Sec
Rotary of state, announcing final ratifi.
cation of the amendment by SO states,
is required by law, Senators Bristow
and Borah, leaders in the direct cleo
tions fight in Congress, expressed the.
opinion that the amendment Is for all
practical purposes now a part of the
Constitution.
ANY man who may be elected to
the Senate hereafter must be elected
directly" said Senator Borah.
The new amendment gives to the
state legislatures, however, the right
to prescribe the methods for electing
senators.

JEALOUSY
ITS CAUSE

The cause of iealousy-and the cure

Well, I'm not SO sure that jeal-
ousy is related even by step connec-

Maybe he is. There are many poets
who claim that there can be no true

True Love had feeling that rab-
bit or a vicious reptile was creeping
over the grave that soon would be his.
Love-that best kind of love, the real

Jealousy is despicable thing, because

Doubt walks up and lands one a blow

Perfect love casteth out fear-andt
fear-even you wouldn't dare deny
that fear is all twined around and

Fear that you can't hold the love OF

Fear that she will see some one

Fear that she will give some Of the

Jealousy is a sinister and evil mower
