| have lived here the best portion Of my
life. and intend to die here. And there

should the Republicans succeed in organic

'Wer~ We elected or are We occupying "a
place that belongs to somebody else?''
These would be ever-recurring questions.
Better suffer defeat again and again, than
hold office under those conditions.
ON the other hand, should the Democrats
Of the senate hold out and not allow the
senate to organize at all during the time
allowed by law for the legislature to re-
main in session. with the hope that after
the time has expired for the election Of two
United States senators the governor will
have the right and authority to fill those
two vacancies by appointment, aud will
proceed to do so. G.tenable hypothesis,
Those gentlemen who would go to Wash
ington, ID. C., to represent the State OF
Montana would there lie told 10y the United
states senate that there had bsen no
vacancy made in the Office of United States
senators from Montana during an adjourn
msnt of the legislature To authorize any
body to appoint persons to I'LL those
Offices" and therefore the senatorship
would remain vacant for two years longer
