Tuesday Morning, July E8CANABA MORNING PRESI Tuesday Morning, 2 1 DEMOCRATS SEE CHANGE OF LOSS OF SENATE LEAD LIVE ITEMS INTEREST AT THE STORE AHEAD Washington, 21. Complications are predicted as to arise over installation of the direct election method for the election of United States senator. Most of the trouble is expected to result from failure of state legislatures to provide promptly appropriate methods for rylng out the recent amendment to to the constitution for direct senatorial elections. Leaders of senate majority are more anxious about the situation than the Reubllcans. Should two or more vacancies on the Democratic side of the chamber occur, the narrow margin of power in the body would be gone.

There are 32 senatorial terms which will expire on March 3, 1915. Some of these states affected already have provided a method of popular election of senators, but a great number of them have not, and vacancies caused by duath or resignation may call at auy time for a popular election from states which have not yet acted. Democratic members of the committee on privileges and elections have considered the advisability of paving a national law prescribing a method and applying to all states al'ke. To di this, congress would exercise its power under the constitution to revise state regulations as to the time and manner of electing senators, a step which never ha to Southern senators. No sooner had these suggestions of federal legislation been made, than they entered a protest and the was abandoned.

The Democratic congressional committee may take steps to urge the states to pass legislation as quickly as possible. It will see to it that all the states that elect senators for term beginning in 1915 act before that time. Should vacancies occur during the pendency of the tariff act, in states where suitable machinery not now provided, it is understood the committee would at once urge convening of the state legislature to authorize the governors to appoint and to provide for the placing of candidates for senator on the ballots in future elections.
