GOLD DEMOCRATS pETKRoNED.

Boston, Aug. 5-Much interest at
tached TO the denomination of II. v. Gun
ningham as the democratic member of
the ballot commission by the governor
yesterday. He sits on the board here
after as the representative of heparty
that cast nearly $4,000 votes for George
+. Williams last November. The gov
ernor has thus been compelled by law
to recognize the silver wing of the demo-
cratic party and Mr.. Cunningham, In
turn. has been obliged first to say that
he was never Afliliated In any way with
the national democratic party. The gold
democrat In thus dethroned-the demo-
crat OF the law is the silver democrat
who voted for williams last fall. Thus
has Attorney General Hosea NJ. Knowl-
ton decided. and thus has Governor VOL
colt acted.
While the opinion OF the attorney
seems at first 20 clash with the famous
decision OF the supreme court In the case
Of Jaquith VS.. the town Of Wellesley,
the opinion Of the states legal adviser
endeavors TO deny any clash. Condl-
tions have changed he practically
says. and the supreme courts decision
In the present instance would not result
In victory Tor the gold democrat as II
did In the Jaquith incident.
"In that case" Mr. Knowlton said.
"the incumbent had been regularly and
lawfully appointed and his removal was
sought because OF his alleged change OF
political faith. A new appointment Is 60
be made now. and. in my opinion, II ~
the plain duty Of the executive to recog-
nize the organisation which cast the
next to the largest number Of votes In
1897 az entitled to representation upon
the ballot commission"
