and also contributed to the flood con-
ditions at Delaware.
Every business house in the little
town was flooded, save one general
store at the extreme east end of the
corporation limits, and the greater
part of the stocks were ruined. The
two banks were submerged in 6 feet
of water, and all the papers. money,
notes, books, etc, were so water
soaked that it will b. next to i'm

OF blotters were being used to dry

bills were literally soaked into n SOL

opinion that great deal of it would
have to be sent to Washington to be
redeemed.
The postoffice came in for its full

AGITATION FOR DIRECTELECTlON
OF SENATORS DATES FROM 1926
Andrew Johnson as Congressman, Senator and
President Did Much to Further Legisla-
tion Connecticut Last to Ratify the
Amendment to Constitution.
Associated Press.

ASoblldltu IItSS.
Washington, April 9.-The new
amendment to the constitution, for
the popular election OF United States
senators. is the seventeenth to be
adopted II reads:
The senate of the United States
shall be composed OF Two senators
from each state, elected by the peo-
pie thereof. for six years. and each
senator shall have one vote. The
electors in each state shall have the
qualifications requisite for electors of
the most numerous branch OF the
state legislatures.
when vacancies happen in the
representation Of any state in the
senate, the executive authority of
such state shall issue writs of cleo
tion to fill such vacancies. provided
that the Legislature of any state may
empower the executive thereof 10
make temporary appointments until
the people fill the vacancies by cleo
tion as the legislature may direct"
The amendment primarily trans
fers the power of electing senators
from the state legislatures to the
people at the polls. To effect this
change. it was necessary to alter the
machinery fer the filling OF yaCan-
cies in the senate.
For more than 60 years proposals
have been made to change the con-
stitution so as to provide for the di-
rect election of senators. 1t was not, A.,
however. until June "a, 1911, Nhat
the senate was induced for the first
time in its history to give its con-
sent to the change. On that day It
voted to submit to the states the pro-
posed amendment. The resolution to
submit had already passed the house

in the reclaiming Of arid lands.
There is now general belief that
Secretary Lane will add to Mr.. Fish
er's good intentions, broader and
closer appreciation Of the needs of
the west. Such a man, declare local
officials of the Grand Valley Water
Users association, is an ideal head
of the reclamation service.
The whole trend of the new secre-
tary's attitude toward the people
seems to be to cooperate wherever
possible with the state and localities
and remove, as far as may be, the
ideas of an impersonal, unattainable
government where the common herd
may worship but not be heard. He
seems thoroughly anxious to be in
common accord with all whom his
department affects.

his subject without gloves, at the

from Immediately taking up the
problems with which he is confront
ed in one or another of the various

alizing that, Secretary Lane has had
the good sense to retain most of his
lieutenants in office until such a
time as he can grasp the significance
of each situation.
Samuel Adams, the precise and
dogmatic assistant secretary under
Secretary Fisher is still in his place,
but rumor has it that he may be
displaced to give room for promo

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Little Rock.-The new Arkansas state capitol, upon which work was begun more than ten years ago, is about to be completed. AS a result of the action taken by the general as- sembly which recently adjourned, the money is now available for the com. pletion of the structure, as we'll as for it's furnishing and for beautifying of the capitol grounds.
 While the new capitol has been oc- cGpied for the past two years it has rot been completed. The building it. self has been finished but the bare walls and ceilings have lacked mural decorations and coloring, the shafts built to accommodate the elevators have been empty, temporary heating

tion of the building because of the lack of sufficient money to use genu- inc marble, It was expected at the time this seagliola was used that it probably would be replaced by marble later
 For electric lighting fixtures in the building and grounds and on the front steps, $25,oOO was provided, while q total of S73.S00 was appropriated for a heating and generating plant. with it's equipment, and for additional heat ing apparatus and electric wiring in the building.
 Provision was made for the com. pletion of a subbasement floor under the terrace, for the completion of un. finished rooms on the ground floor, for elevators and additional vault doors, for plumbing, draining, etc. A total of about $10O,0O0 was appropriat ed to cover the cost of all this work.
 New furniture is to be installed in all the state offices. an appropriation of $96,750 being made for this Dur. pose, while an item of S3,5O0 was in cluded for the installation of a clock system.
 It is believed that, after it's tempes. tuous history of more than ten years there will be nothing in the way of the early completion of the capitol The work will be done under the su pervision of the old capitol commis sion, which was appointed during the first year of Governor Donaghey's ad ministration, as the members of this commission were not appointed for a definite term but hold their places for an indefinite time.

plant has been in use, electric fix lures have been lacking and the grounds have been left practically as they were while the actual work of constructing the building was in prog ress.
 All this is now to be changed Be fore another legislature convenes in regular session and probably consid- erably earlier, the building will stand completed and the surrounding grounds will be put in shape to give the hand some capitol the setting which struc- ture of it's character demands.
 The recent legislature made all this possible by making an appropriation of approximately $432,000 for the com pletion of the building and improve ment of the grounds. The appropria- ton measure carried a total of S500,- OO0 but of this amount, about S34,O00 will go to pay debts contracted by the commission during the past two years, and about $32,0o0 will be required for the maintenance of the capitol during the next iWo ytdl ho of the amount appropriated, amount ing to s432,S5O will be available for the completion of the building and the beautifying of the grounds. With the expenditure of this sum the total cost of the new capitol will have reached a total of approximately $2,200,0o, but this will include the cost of installing new furniture in all the state offices and the cost of improving the grounds surrounding the building.
 The bill making the appropriation for the completion of the capitol was Introduced in the recent legislature by Senator John Ike Moore of Helena, who Is member of the capitol com, mission appointed by Governor Dona- ghey. The bill went through both houses with comparatively little oppo- sition and no reduction was made in the amount asked by the commission.

 There will be nothing to prevent the commission from going forward rapidly with the work that is to be done for there Is plenty of money in the state capitol fund now and by next July there will have been paid into this fund nearly, If not quite, enough to pay all the appropriations made by the last legislature.
 There is now about $200,000 in the capitol fund and about $200,000 more will be turned into the fund when the county collectors make their setrfe- ments with the state for the taxes collected this year. If this not enough to complete the building, according to the appropriation made, at least an additional $100,000 will be paid into this fund during the next two years for the legislature retained the capitol tax although it was reduced from one half to one eighth of mill.
 The new act, among other items, provides $40,000 for landscape work on the capitol grounds, asphalt road ways to the main entrance of the cap itol, etc. It is expected that the grounds will be terraeed and improved according to plans prepared by land scape engineer.
 For color work on the walls and ceilings of the building, to relieve the glaring whiteness that now offends the eye of the aesthetic, an appropriation of $30000 was provided.
 An item of S40,000 was provided for additional marble work throughout the building, wherever possible re- placing the scagliola, or imitation mar ble, which was used in the construc-
