This book will fall far short of its purpose if it fails to carry the writer's firm conviction that electoral forms and methods are of slight import, except as they affect the spirit of the choice, and that neither the continuance of the present system, nor the resort to popular elec tion, can long secure the Senate which the best interests of the country demand, unless back of the method there be found the vigilance, the intelligence and the con science of the individual voter.
