THE CITIZEN.
Amend the Constitution.
The election of United States Sena
tor* by a direct vote ef the i>eoi>le.
would certainly be a great improvement
on the present system. A legislative
b nly is snpi>o?>ed to represent the popu
lir will in the choice of a Senator any
how. and it is difficult to see what ad-
Vantage there is in leaving the choice to
the legislature of the several states.
The framers of the constitution, de
siring to create a body less fossilized
than the Honse of Lords in England,
and a little more <Hand conserva
tive than the lower House of Congress,
conceived the idea of rqeuiring the leg*
is'atnres of the several States to select
the Senators for a term of six years.
The long term tends to produce the re
sult aimed at. but the election of Sena
tors by legislative lnxlies accomplishes
no good purpose. •'n the contrary it is
productive of great evils that might be
obviated by popular elections.
First, the election of United States
Senators by a state legislature tends to
degrade the legislative body itself.
When memliers of the legislature are to
1M? chosen who will vote for a I nited
Senator the merits and capabili , :
ties of the legislative eaniilate is often j 1
entirely lost of' and alnint the 011- j (
ly tiling thonght of is how he will vote 1
for United States Senator. That de t
grades the legislature, filling it with in 1
conipetents and ' "roisters. who have •
no q.usKfieations whatever for the hnsi- .
ness of making laws or looking after .
the general interests of the Sjate. The ;
election of a Senator is a very insigniti- 1
cant fraction of the duties of a legisla- 1
ture. A candidate ifor the legislature 1
saonkl run on his own merits not on
the merits or demerits of some man
who wants to be United States Senator. 1
Second, the election of United States
Senators by the legislatures of the sev
eral states tends to degrade the higher
branch of Congress its self, because it
gives money an advantage over charac
ter and ability. A mere money bag
c.in have himself boomed for office, and J
he can use money in various corrupting r
ways to have persons who will vote for
him elected to the legislature. In this
way millionaires, who have no qualities
of statesmanship whatever, are some
times elected to that body who would
st md no chance in a popular election. '
Besides these two potent reasons fcr '
choosing Senators by the popular vote,
there is another: The people want a 1
voice in their selection, and feel that it is
their right, and in accordance with the
genius of our institutions.
We would have better legislatures, a
better United States Senate, and conse
quently better management of both
State and National affairs, if Senators
were choosen by popular vote, and the
Constitution should be amended accord
ingly.—Punx'y Spirit
Noah After tlic Flood.
The first fruit planted by Noah when
he left the ark was the grape, the most
healthy of all products of the earth.
All through the Bible we read grapes
and wine from grapes being recom
mended as the first remedy for the ills
of life; but it is pure juice wine, not
watered and sugared juice that the Bi
ble refers.
Sugared wines are highly alcoholic
and starchy; the sugar making excess
of alcohol and other prodnctsjnot belong
ing to a healthy wine.
Speer of New Jersey, the oldest wine
grower in the United States, has studi
ously avoided water and sugar or any
foreign substance whatever, but has
bis wine fully matured by great age and
careful handling.
A Snow Act.
Among the other acts, good, bad or
indifferent, passed by the last legisla
ture, was the following means to re
duce the snow drift nuisance to a mini
mum. It provides for the removal of
b.>ard fences, where in many sections
ol the country the drifting snows are
halted by just such fences. Here is
the law;
Section 1 - Beit enacted, etc.. That
in all cases were any of the public high
ways within this commonwealth are
so located as to render them to be lia
ble on account of the high wind during
the winter session, to be so tilled with
snow as to cause them to be impassible,
and where in judgement of the supervi
sors of roads of the several townships In
which public highways are situated,
such drifts of snow can be avoided by
the removal of any board, rail or other
fence, that may be erected along
either side of such public highways and
replacing the same by a fence con
structed of posts, wire and boards, or
rails combined, it may be lawful for
such supervisors to agree with the own
ers of fences upon a plan for the erect
ion ot a fence constructed of posts,
1 wire and boards, or rails combined.
| And it may be lawful for supervis
' ors to pay the owners of such fences a
sua not to exceed the first cost of the
material used in the construction 1 f
such fences: Provided. That the
wire used in the construction
of such fences shall be without barb;
provided, that this act shall not apply
to any stone wall, hedge or ornamental
fence that is now or may be hereafter
constructed.
The verdict of the people is that Dr.
Bull's Cough Syrup is the best remedy
for coughs, colds, sore throat, asthma,
etc.

Doves Scattered Flowers.
The unromatic aspect of Cramps'
shipward was turned to favor and
prettiness last Thursday when the Jap
anese cruser Kasagi was launched.
True oriental spirit pervaded the event,
and, perhaps for the same reason that
the dainty Japs begin their dinners
with pie and end them with soup, this
deadly engineof war was christened with
all the emblems of peace, tranquillity
and love. When the huge ship began
to glide down to her first bath in the
muddy Delaware six doves fluttered
from a basket from the bow and circ
ling round the fast receding hull, scat
tered powers on her deck and on the
nondescript structure of timbei and
iron from which she slipped gracefully
away. The chief actor of the allegory
was a charming American girl Miss
Helen Long, daughter of the secretary
of the navy.
The doye idea is a relic of the feudal
ages oi Japan. It combines supersti
tious tradition with a love atfair of
quite modern fashion, including an
elopement, an irate father and the in
tercession of his ancestors' spirits in
the shape of the birds, who thus per
mitted the lovers to get safely away on
a maritume lioney-moon. Miss Long
was to have merely drawn the cord
which released the doves and their flo
ral emblems. At the supreme moment
the cord slipped from her hand and a
brawny workman of the yard instantly
caught it and performed the office
A good tonic is necessary after sick
ness to restore perfect health. Hood s
Sarsaparilla will do it.
A writer says: Orange juice is one
of the best dressings fur black shoes or
boots. Take a slice or unarter of an
orange and rub it on the shoe or boot:
then when dry, brush with a soft brush
until the shoes shine like a looking
glass. This is an English receipt. (
Another fruit dressing is for tan shoes,
the inside of a banana skin. Rub the
skin all over the shoe, thoroughly, wipe
off carefully with a soft cloth briskly.
Patent leather shoes should not be pol
ished with blacking. These are the
hardest kind of shoes to keep looking
well, and require constant care. "they |
may be cleaned with a damp sponge
and immediately dried with a soft
cloth, with occasionally a little vast*
line or sweet oil. They must never
donned in cold weather without hc.it
ing, or they will crack as soon as ex
pca.-d to the cold air.
