SUCH silly twaddle as the Times
Union and it's evening offspring are
printing by way of excuse for their
ia I''re to get the news of Governor
Jennings opinion on the senatorial
que ''ion is entirely too transparent to
deceive any one. The cackle about
Governor Fleming having occupied
the position ola newspaper correspon-
dent was doubtless intended for a bit
of sarcastic humor. The opinion
was a matter of record in the gov.
ern'r's Office, copies of which were
TO be had merely by the asking.
The live representatives of live news
papers asked for and secured the in
formation, but the Times Union did
not wake up until it saw the matter

would never do so at the expense ~
propriety or law.
1t was claimed that the neon,.
would elect a body which woplS

majority of both bodies.
His cause was submitted to tho
democratic caucus, and Mr.. Call and
their friends gave their words of
honor as pledges to abide by the de-.
cislon of that body. The caucus r.
fused to elect him, and they admitted
it never would. So they skipped the
game, and when the policeman
caught them they claimed the lack.
pot.

appealed to fourth, and got a dis.

Gentlemen, pay up like gent en- en-.
You have lost the game, surrender
the stake and don't blubber or plead
the baby act.
The constitution of the United
States says the legislature shall elect
the senators.
The constitution of the state of
Florida says the Legislature shall con-
sist of two housc ], n eac'l of which
a quorum shall be necessary for the
transaction of bus ness.
No statute can abroga e these pro-
visions of the constitutio :.
Therefore Call is 1T elect ed unless
one house can ele If one house
can elect, quorum of that house
can elect. Therefore thirty-five men,
bers Of the lower house can legally
elect and eighteen members of re
house of representatives can name
senator for the state of Florida,
which is a reductio al absurdum.
Yet this is the logical consequence
of Col. Cockrel,'s position. You have
lost the game, gentlemen. If you
can't help whining, at least wait IN.

4 CALL REVIEW.
ON the Florida Standard

From the Florida Standard.
Denial of Calls title to his seat is
considered breach of honor, since
"the election was a game and the
stakes should be surrendered by the
losers" Yet the Call men pledged
themselves to play the game in the
caucus and Call pledged himself to
abide the result. When thew broke
the rule, overturned the table and
grabbed at the jack pot, are they not
foresworn What comfort can they
find in the parable of game?
They asked Governor Fleming to
hear them on their cause; did they
not accept him as the Judge?
They published arguments to sup.
port their cause; why should they
object to arguments per contra?
Beaten at argument, they abuse
all who differ with them; do they
think that hurts anybody but them
selves.
They cannot abide a fair decision
on a fair field, but they misrep-
resent the facts and call names ::
have they not learned by experience
that these weapons always injure
those who hold them?
The omnipresent correspondent
has again proved a failure and the
Morning Failure quotes from the
Evening Effort to sustain itself. Is
it not broken reed which will pierce
the hand "a?
They charge the governor with
failure to observe the etiquette of his
office in that his refusal should have
been addressed to the secretary of
state. The secretary has made no
demand on the governor for Calls
certificate; the attempt to push the
secretary into prominence on the
question is unjust to him. Until he
is requested to affix the great seal of
state to the appointment, he has no
more to do with the war over the
senatorial succession than the treas
urer or comptroller. The same con.
eideration of propriety bind him
which are imposed on other members
OF the cabinet, and any declaration
from him as to how he would dis.
charge ministerial function in ad.
vance would be in lamentable taste,
The Standard doubts not that DR.
Crawford would do all in his power

employed as the attorney OF Mr.. Call.
Col. Cockrell tries hard to make
out a case for his client, but the con-
stitution of the United States and
that of the state of Florida will not
harmonic with an act of Congress
as he would have them do.
Section l of Article III of the
constitution of the state Of Florida
says: "The Legislative authority OF
this state shall be vested in Senate
and House Of Representatives which
shall be designated the Legislature
of the state of Florida"
Section IL of the same Article
says ga majority of each House
shall constitute a quorum to do bust
ness, but smaller number may ad-
jou,n from day to day, and compel
the attendance of absent MEMBERS -
While section 81 of the same Arti-
Gle III provides that
"The legislature shall elect United
States senators in the manner pre-
scribed by the congress Of the
United States and by this conSiltu-
tiOn."
1t will therefore be seen that Sec
tions l and IL define the term "leg-
islature" and that section 81 directs
that the legislaturC-previo de-
iined-shall elect. What legisla,
ture? Why a majority of each
house, Of course!
The manner of electng a United
States senator may be prescribed by
congress, but this cannot change the
definition previously given of the
term "legislature," and the manner
must be consistent with the consti-
tuition Of the United States, for that
is superior to an act of congress, and
consistent with the state constitu.
ton, because it follows the language
of the constitution of the United
States and adds that the manner
must also be as prescribed "by this
constitution.
Wilkinson Call was not legally
elected United States senator from
Florida. That fact is as clear as the
light of day.
