construction and usage in all the States Some OF than
have passed laws that end and others have even gone
80 far TO make il provision IN their own consu-
tons. Louisiana is one OF these In her constitution
adopted in 1885, she specially directs that sin the year
in which regular election OF a senator OF the United
States to take place, The members OF the general as
