MAKING LAWS IN FRANCE.
The President Has No Veto Power
When Bills Have Passed,

The process of legislation in the French
Chamber Is very simple, as described by
the CHGUtduqaaIl. Each Chamber may
Initiate legislation upon any subject ex-
Cept the nnanceS; and a bill upon any
subject whatsoever must be passed in all
It's parts by majority vote in both cham
Ders IN order to become law. This is
not only necessary, but is also sufficient.
/. e., the President of the Republic has
no veto power upon the legislation of the
Chamb bers. The Constitution provides a
period Of thirty days between the passage
of the law by the Chambers and its neces-
sary PRONUNCIATION by the President of
the Republic. and reduces this period to
three days IN case the Chamber should
vote that PRONUNCIATION is urgent. Within
tn Sc respective periods the President Of
the Republic may demand OF the Cham
berS a reconsideration OF the measure
and they are required by the Constitu-
tion to accord the request. If they repass
the measure by maJority vote, the Presi-
dent must yield and promulgate the law
The Chambers can also initiate the call
OF the National Assembly for the purpose
OF amending or revising the Constitution
| The chief question which has arisen in
the exercise of this power is whether the
| Cham bers can limit the action OF the Ma
tional Assembly by their agreement be-
iorehand upon the su Djects in regard to
which the Constitution may be amended
or revised. The affirmative view OF this
question would be a security 10 the rights
and powers ofthe smaller body, the Son
ate, since the National Assembly is COM
posed Of the mem bers OF the two Cham
bers in joint assembly, but the more
numerous Deputies have espoused with
great unanimity the negative view; and
1t must be recognized that they have the
logic OF the matter with them. The Ma
tional Assembly is the sovereign power
IN the Constitution, and cannot be linz
lied, therefore. by branch OF the Gov
ernment, i'll its action. The National As
embly may consider any subject it will
when once is is organized. The Cham
bers in joint assembly also elect the Pres
Ident OF the Republic.

RADFORD CRAZY.
TAKEN FROM THE PENlTENTIARY AND
SENT TO THE ASYLUM
After Nine and Half Years OF Prison
Life, a Man Convicted on ,Circumstantial
Evidence Loses His Mind

The following dispatch was sent
out from Frankfort on the 22nd:
Luther Radford, of Christian coun
ty, a life prisoner who is confined in
the penitentiary here, was to-day re-
spited by the governor on account of
lunacy. Radford has been in the
penitentiary ten years, the crime for
which he was sent here being cele-
brated in the annals of crime in Ken
lucky, and producing great excite
ment at the time. Radford is alleged
to have killed young man named
Jake Torian, rival for the hand of a.
maiden Radford loved and hoped to
make his wife. Both were prosper
GUS young farmers and were well CON
nected. One night while Torian was
in his room a bullet fired from the
outside crashed through the window
and MORALLY wounded the young
