v..: 70 the continued discharge Of his
executive duties by the Governor. He is
"a. more res ponsible to one man than Al.
other, nor should he lend himself 10 any
n..a,crc OF proposition which involves the
sacrifice OF the interest, 0: li, associates
o. the State ticket. Ii lie chooses 70

Tia: Senator Anderson who stands next
in tie line OF succession to Antoine
sill yield his chance Oh any account.
We hope Governor Kellogg will tor The
