that all OF Pendleson's friends, eight Of

an open ballot. The fores Ding list con.
stithtes about the only data whereby the
people can judge of their senators and
representatives on the senatorial ques.
ton. Why any of them should have
declined to vote openly on all questions
and in the presence of the representa-

have been recorded, it is hard to under.
stand. A majority must have feared the
