to the president and congress. He de-
cl,ned to discuss the report or the views Of
the commissioners further than to say
that the published reports of what the
commission would recommend were wrong
in every essential particular.
"Of course" he remarked, 1--WE favor a
territorial form of government as that
was plainly the intention of congress, as
shown in the act authorizing the creat ton
Of the commission. but what particular
form of territorial government we shall
recommend cannot be stated"
The senator, in speaking of the Philip
pine question, said that in his judgment the
United States should retain possession of
the whole group of islands. giving to the
natives the right to govern themselves
within certain limitations and under the
general supervision and control of the
United States.

NO SPECIAL SESSIONS.
Legislature Cannot Give Soldiers the
Right to Vote.

AS told in the Journal some days ago,
there has been talk of a special session of
the Legislature to pass law authorizing
Indiana soldiers in the field to vote at the
November elections. Many members of the
Legislature have expressed a willingness to
come here for that sole purpose, and papers
of the State have advocated a special ses-
sion along this line. Clerks who served in
the last session of the Legislature rendered
their services to the Governor, agreeing to
serve without compensation if the body
was called together for that purpose. Gov
ernor Mount asked Attorney General Ketch-
am for an opinion on the matter, submitting
the following query: Would a law enacted
by the Legislature providing for Indiana SOL
diers voting in the field be constitutional? %
Mr.. ketcham submitted a brief written
opinion saying: Il beg to say that, in my
opinion it would not be.''
My idea in submitting the question to
the attorney general, said the Governor
was in order to recommend the legislature
at its next session. to enact a law permit
ting soldiers 10 vote. There has been some
talk of a special session for the purpose of
passing such law, but / did not not look
upon 1t with favor. This opinion of the
attorney general settles the question:
During the civil war many States passed
laws permitting volunteers in the field IL
vote. An attempt was made to pass such
a law in Indiana, but the anti-war party
was successful in defeating the measure.
