Organized Campaign in the Senate for
Direct Election of Presidents.
I!y KDWARD G. T.OWHY, in Saturday Evening Post.
As (-oi)ii us the suffrage iiiiiciidnieiit is nitilieil and out of tin; way
there vill lii'L'in in Hie .-ciiiiti- an organized eaiiiiain to ul.oli.-l the elec
toral cillee. The i'i loi; '.'ii t s (if the ilan ei'ine from direct primary slates.
Tiny ic)n sent the same j.olilii-al tlioiifflit that brought ahout the direct
tlfdien of senators. .Now they want to take the next stx'p and bring about
the direct, election of presidents. They seek to make it easy and possible
to have independent candidates for the presidency when the voters of either
t,r both the two great rival parties are dissatisfied with the nominees of
the national conventions. They know they will have popular support for
their plan. Jt will be strongly urged in the senate and before the country.
J quote one of the senators who is prepared to take an active' part
in the campaign to abolish the electoral college:
"Everybody knows that nearly all political conventions are manipu
lated and controlled by powerful influences that have selfish ends in view
rather than the benefit of all the people. We have a practical illustration
before us at this moment. If a few men are able under existing conditions
to control the nominal ions of two great rival parties, as they have done
recen'lv, without consult ing the wish"s or the wants of the voters, then
the only right given tn the voter is that of choosing between these two
Kimples which are set before him. This is in reality a denial of the right
of su!!'iaLre. At least, tb right of suffrage so given is not absolute.
'if the electoral college were out of the way all that would be neces
sary 1u11ld he to announce (lie name of the independenteandidHte and to
comply in the different slates with the method provided by law for putting
the one name on the ticket. It would lie a very simple procedure, inexpen
sive and perfectly practicable. Every state in the I'nion which has an
official ballot provides for a method of putting names on the ticket which
are not nominated by political parties. Such machinery is already pro
vided for in every stale, and applies to every oTice except those of presi
dent and vice president, ami the reason it cannot apply to these positions
is because the electoral college stands in the way."

Practical Aid to Industry,
Ten years ano no industry existed
that was capable of placing American
grown varieties of European grapes
upon the market for Christinas trade,
say marketing experts of the United
States department of agriculture.
Then the department devised a meth
od of packing the gntpes In redwood
sawdust in veneered drams, and of
handling the product under refrigera
tion in transit and in storage from the
time of harvesting until the period of
the holiday markets. Today the in
dustry ships tnwe than 500 carloads
of grapes annually. A few years alio
the supply 'of redwood was threatened.
Once more the department of agricul
ture nided. It experimented with va
rious kinds nf wood and demonstrated
that hi mice could lie satisfactorily
used. The supply of spruce is prac
tically inexhaustible.
