has originated a general discussion

is suggested that meeting of lawyers
should settle the matter by selecting
candidates for the offices to be vacated.
Either plan will suffice, provided the
right men for the place are selected.
Many insist that as the judges are to be
elected by the people, they ought also to
be selected by the sovereigns.

home with tlleir eye brows singed off
and no pants or coRt-tails to speak Of.
