complexion Of the next Senate, which meets H.
special session Oct. Is, ID ns follows: 60 far "a
tho politics ofthc Senators Is at present defined
there may be somc doubt about so.ne fthc mctu.
bcrs. Senator Davis, Of Illinois. tor instance, IN
this list Ia put 1owu rs an Independent, although
he has been placed upon the Committccs as . Re.
publican. Tie total number OF Republicans Il
80; Democrats, IS; Independent Republicans
!. There aro three vacancies, ono from South
Carolina, caused BY the retirement OF Senator
Robertson, and two from Lousfann, one being
the vacancy caused by the retirement Of scuator
West, aud the other being known as
THE PtNcnnAcK VACANCY
which hns existed for four or i've years psst
The applicants for the sonth Carolina yacaat,
aro David r. Corb1n, Republican, and N. G.
Butler, Democrat. The appti .1nts for tho Two
Louisiana vacancies nrc William Pitt Kellogg
Republican, and J. D, Tustts and James Lewis
Democrats. It Is expccted that these three
vacancies will bo t'lled by Democrats. In thi.
event tho Democrats would have tbtrty-si1
members In the Senate. Should scnutor Nor
ton not survive, ns Is graycly feared here now
Ills surccssor, upon tho appointment Of ths
Governor, would, Of COURSE, bo q Detnocra.
This would leave the Republicans with
THE sCANTY NAjoH1TY or TWO
In thu scnatc, With Davis as All Independent
and ~ case Of TIC death or resignation IT any oi
the Republican Senators from tho States OF IL.
abatna, Arkansas, Florfda, htlssiasppi, Or Bouta
Carolsna. the vacancies would be filled by Demo
