They argue that, ilasmueh as the denosra,ic members of the General Assembly have failed to nomi- nate candidate, there is no principle invol- ved, and every body is free to act as he plea ses. lf this logic is satisfactory to them, we, surely, will not complain, nor attempt to point out its faliacy.
