the men comprising the personnel Of the
Senate. It but illustrates the necessity
and the importance of permitting the
States to make their own choice.
But this is all admitted. No man
disputes the soundneSs of the rule,
but there is much difference of opinion
as to the application Of it.
There was introduced in the Senate
resolution declaring that Mr.. Ware,
whose election returns showed major
ity of something like 100000, was not
entitled to his seat because in the month
of May prior to his election he, in COM
bination with other candidates for Of
fice had jointly expended in the State
of Pennsylvania $685. 900. 1t was not
charged that in the expenditure OF this
money Mr. Ware or his associates had
violated any law of the State, or that
they had violated any law of the United
States the sole argument being that it
was against public policy to permit any
such sum of money as this to be ex-
pended in any nomination for Office or
combination Of Offices.
In 1911 the Congress undertook to
regulate the expenditure of money at
primary elections. 1t fixed limitation
upon the candidate for Senator of the
United States. It provided, however.
that this amount should be exclusive of
his necessary personal expenses, for
travel and subsistence, stationery or
postage, writing or printing, and dis
tributing letters, circulars, posters, etc
In the Newberry case Mr.. Justice Nc
Reynolds, in holding this statue void,
stated:
Limitations of Words.
1--WE cannot conclude that authority
10 control party primaries or conven-
tionS for designating candidates was
bestowed on Congress by the grant of
power to regulate the manner of hold
ing elections. The fair intendment of
the words does not extend so far; the
trainers of the Constitution did not
ascribe to them any such meaning. Nor
Is this control necessary in order 10
efTectuate the power expressly granted.
On the other hand, its exercise would
interfere with purely domestic affairs
of the State and infringe upon liberties
reserved to the people,"
1t will be observed from this state
ment of the courts opinion that the
Congress in enacting such law had
exceeded its authority, and therefore
left the matter of nominations in the
hands of the State.
Before this resolution to exclude Mr.
Ware from his seat was adopted a re-
port on the contest made by Mr.. Wilson
was presented to the Senate, in which
a majority of the committee held that
Mr.. Ware had received large majority,
even if all of the districts in which
irregularities were mentioned were en-
tirely thrown out. The minority report
of that committee agreed with the ma
jority that Mr.. Wilson was not entitled
to the seat but insisted in taking into
consideration the money expended for
the Ware ticket in the nomination, and
for this reason were willing to declare
that Mr.. Ware had not been properly
elected. 1t would have been very much
more consistent for the Senate. if 1t
wanted to find valid excuse for re-
fusing to seat Mr.. Ware, to determine
in their judicial capacity that he had
