Kansas City Times for having spo-
ken of the Republican members as
a set of Odd FOOLS" They do
not deny the allegation, but they
want the alligator to apologize;
but he is not one of that kind, and
therefore has to scent the news and

members of the Court are rendered
incompetent to sit in the case by
reason of their participation in the
acts of the electoral commission,
and the Court would lack one of a
quorum after the exclusion of these
five members so hat course is not
likely to be taken. The commits
sion has not decided that it cannot
90 behind the certificates Of the
de faeto State officers, but SIM
ply declines to do so. This
leaves an opening for the
Oregon case, which will be
driven through without a halt or
the loss of a single days time. The
decisions in the Florida and Loulsl-
ana cases override every constltu-
tional provision aud safeguard, and
the moral hypothesis goes for naught
along with the legal. The commits
sion bound itself by a narrow set of
rules at first and determined to ex-
clude the facts. AS a Judicial tri-
bunal, expected and sworn to decide
impartially on principles of honesty
and truth, it is a failure and a dis
appointment and has let down to
the level of a prostituted political
machine. Such will be the verdict
