Marble resolves the subject into the inquiry, "Who
counts the votcs-the Senate and House OF Repre-
sentatsves, or the President OF the SenateY' He
argues:-"When the votes are about to DO
counted those two organized bodies must be
tho President OF The Senate may. in the presence Of
tho Senate and House OF Representatives. open all tho
Certificates and they must continue In order that
tho votes may then be counted Doubtless the IN
ference 10 reasonable that the vote shall then be
counted either by the seuate the House OF Represen
atvcs tho President OF the Senate the Senate and
House OF Representatives the exclusion OF all other
bodies or individuals Doubtless too, the Inference IL
reasonable that neither the Senate nor the House OF
Representatives alone should count the VOTE Tor ono
can show no better title to count than the other"
SOLVING THE PRonLEA
The question then remains, Is II the more rea
sonabe be inferred that votes shall be counted
by the Scnate and House oil Representatives, or by
me presiding officer OF the former body rne mrs'
inference to be drawn from the language OF the con-
stitution which explicitly assigns TO The President o
the Senate the duty OF opening the ccrtincatcs put
not tho duty OF counting the votes. The expression
of the one duty s the exclusion OF the other duty
Tho second Inference Is to be drawn from the ac hat
neither OF tho two houses can alone count the votes
The stronger then is the reason why no officer
and organ OF either Tho third Inference 10 ue
drawn from the fact that the President oi the
upon the validity Of votes cast tor himself
Now the consttuton--not explicitly, indeed vests
the power over the count somewhere, though I'M
pIicity. If in either House. not IN tho presiding
officer OF ono House, then implicitly, but certainly IN
the two houses. Tho vcstng IN tho two houses Oh
the power TO count the electoral is not more
implicit than clear. The power Is vested somewhere
II Is demonstrated that but tho Senate aud House
OF Representatives thus met has the mower " count
The inference Is necessary that they must
count. But every candid man must admit that
an authenticated, conclusive Interpretation OF Inc
constitution upon this point-the duty ana power oi

constitution eighteen out OF thirty nne) were men,

lshcd the procedure that has been followed from 1898
to 1873.
Mr.. Marble thcD gives q largo number Of iliustra-
tions Of the the irmaon OF power oil the
two hodses over the count, and an extract from Ap
