vote and who is eligible. MIR. Collins
will not fool" anybody to any great ex-
tent. He is not yet a member Of the legis-
lature and has nothing TO resign. He
might fail TO qualify when the proper
time comes. and thus create a vacancy to
be filed by special election. The legisla

connection it Is proper TO say that Gen.

seat in the senate by the vote of any
member Of the legislature who was not
chosen by the people. He is q pair OF

fairly expressed will of the people should
