National choice, but later it was iu
upon as> a matter of course,
and the election machinery was ad

But ail that ia changed now. The

who carried th. election grievances,
and others, to a successful issue, is
In. It is assumed that the new deal,

Note the u ferrtnce between thi*

is responsive to the people and of

of tenacious atandpatism as the
Senate offers. It is altogether prob

representatives of the interests among
the members of the House as among
