SENATORIAL VOTE
IN FRANCE OCT. 16
III Seats in Upper Chamber
to Be FiIIed-WiII Take
Office in January.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, October 8.-One hundred and
eleven seats out of 314 in the French
Senate will be filled on Sunday, October
16, at elections in 80 departments of
France proper, in Constantine, Algeria,
and in Martinique. The Senators thus
chosen will take Office early in January,
1888 right after the Christmas holiday
recess of the upper house.
Because the French solons are chosen
by small, compact electoral colleges in
each department, none of more than
1000 members, the campaigning, in
the Chamber elections, has been on a
restricted scale. Party programs and
platforms play secondary role in the
selection of Senators. A candidates
personality, his friendships in par
ticular region, count most.
Poincare Best Known.
Former Premier Raymond Poincare,
seeking designation in the department
of the Meuse, is the most widely known
of the candidates.
The sessions of the departmental
general councils, those 10, al governing
bodies that are concerned with roads,
bridges and other matters of local in
tereSt, have given most of the Senators
up for reelection, and those desiring
to succeed them in the comfortable
armchairs of the Luxembourg Palace in
the heart of the old Latin quarter,
plenty of opportunity to make speecneS
and renew contact with their con-
Stituents.
Most of the candidates already are
general or municipal councillors, mayors
Of cities or towns, or otherwise entitled
to sit in the electoral colleges and able
to combine their canvassing with the
normal business of those offices.
The large number of cattle, horse and
other fairs that mark French provincial
life during the late Summer and Au-
tumn have been well attended by the
prospective Senators seeking the rural
vote. These agricultural festivities are
invariably attended by banquets, where
the candidates have opportunities to
speak.
Hold Office Nine Years.
The political complexion of the Sen
ate is rarely changed profoundly, with
only about one-third of the seats filled
at each election. Senators hold office
for nine years. But the Socialists this
year have been making drive in some
quarters to gain more seats than their
present II in what they used to term
"the citadel of reaction"
Voting begins Sunday at $50 am
and will last until 1870 for the first
ballot. If no candidate in each de-
partment has a clear majority plus one
there will be second ballot, lasting
from to pm. If that is ineffective
a third ballot will be run off between
6 and 8 pm. On that last ballot,
mere plurality. instead of the absolute
majority" will be sufficient to secure
election.
By a curious provision Of the organic
law of 1875, by which the third French
Republic was formally set up, it is pro-
vided that if two candidates run a dead
heat on the third and last ballot, the
elder shall be awarded the vacant seat.

PAC|F|STS THOUGHT
BACKING N. U.PA|R|
Suspensions for Refusing R.
O. T. C. Course Approved
by eoper.

Characterizing the two University of
Maryland students who have been sus-
pended for refusing to take the r. o.
T. c. course as plants for pacifist
agitators, the Diamondback, student
publication, approved their suspension
in the leading editorial of a special
Homecoming Day Edition" last night.
The editorial, headed Our Con-
scientious Directors" says the two men
have been inspired by such an attack
of conscience as has seldom been evil
denced to our knowledge in any other
university or college in the country.
Because, in one case. if not in both
the facts would seem to indicate that
the situation is merely ripple on a
pool of propaganda emanating from
the headquarters of peace promotion
society of New York, the matter Savors
overmuch of the undercover work OF
organized paciflsts rather than an
actual expression Of sentiment on the
part of the two Maryland undergrad
uates.
Not Patriotic Spirit. =
sWe hesitate to claim these men as
Marylanders; the spirit in which they
have both treated the affair Is not the
spirit of patriotiSm-of loyalty to the
the men involved are subject to what
can honestly be called religious scruples,
despite the fact that one of them sought
to offer such an excuse.
''Pacifist agitatorS, in short, are en-
deavoring to raise an issue here by
means OF plants; more unpleasant
and unedfying occupation We can
scarcely imagine. But, for the plants
themselves (and such We believe them
to be whether they are aware or not
Of the fact) we have no sympathy.
They have expressed themselves behind
barriers of conscience ideals and
thought Intangible and
thoroughly impracticable reasoning.
Sample Of "Tommyrot"
"To say that the R. o. T. c. is
militaristic organization in the sense
that it promotes and inspires organ
lied warfare is somewhat tommyrot.
1t is blind and stubborn refusal to
confess the faults of human nature
The r. o. T. c. is fundamentally a
defense unit, and as such fulfillS the
purposes which promoted its Inaugural
tion by the national defense act. To
claim contrary motives is to admit
ignorance of its principles.
But the controversy, as it has been
brought to public attention the past
week is not so much concerned with
the good and evil of military training;
rather it resolves itself into a question
of whether or not two students may
take it upon themselves. aided and
abetted by outside interests to alter
the entire policy Of an American uni
versity."

viously stated the board did not contem-
plate high subscriptions at the outset.
Directors have been requested by the
Federal board to cooperate with agen-
cies which are taking stock subscrip-
tions in an effort to stimulate subscrtp-
tions from eligible institutions.
The general impression exists that
the Treasury would be called upon to
subscribe for close to the maximum Of
$125, ,000, 900 fixed by law.
Inasmuch as the minimum capitali-
zation is fixed at S134, 900 900, the Fed
eral board would be forced to reduce
the capitalization of each Of the region
al banks should less than $10,000,000
be obtained from private sources. The
board has set $10,000,000 as the capital
for the Fourth District Bank. The law

have created a Santa Claus which remains the
