remember that the learned Senator I'M
dertook to reply to the obJectlons 10

the same kind of plea and bitterly de-
nounced the court for its decision ad-
verse to his plea.
Those who had so carefully framed

| ed out, before it was hnally passed,
| falling in which Assembly bill NO 4ol
was introduced in the Assembly Inc

procured the enacting clause TO De

! necessity of a bill curative OF the prl-
mary act was again made apparent to
the Assembly Committee on Election
Laws and that committee introduced
committee bill ASSEMBLY bill No.
91D from which all possible objections
were eliminated. On final passage in
the Assembly every objection was an
swered and it passed without dissent
ing vote. When it reached the Senate
it was referred TO STATIONS committee
which in due time recommended IL Tor
passage. On third reading oenator
Stratton and others made arguments ln
favor of its necessity and merits and
Rraunhart. without assigning a slnSla
objection, opposed it. On Thurscay,
March 9, it passed by 70 TO 4, anu Vas
transmitted to the Assembly Tor en-
roIlrnent. On the same evening Strat-
ton on a. pretense of a desire to Offer
amendments had it recalled and the
vote whereby it passed reconSldefed.
But although it remained on the Me
until March 10 and was twice passed
on file he never offered single amend
ment; and in the small hours or sun
day morning, March 10, the bill, having
been, through the courtesy OF a senator
other than Stratton, called up for pas
sage, Stratton rose in his seat ana SAID
it was a bad bill and should be de-
feated, being unable to point OUT 10 the
tired and sleepy Senate any reason
why it was a bad bill. But eight Sena-
tors, Notwithstanding their drowsiness,
still remembering the logical arguments
of Senator's Smith and Davis on its for
mer passage, voted for it. 1t was lost,
there being present a bare quorum.
The real cause of STATIONS change of
heart was that he preferred the -aVor
Of designing and selfish politicians, and
rather than fail to gain 1t was willing
to in7peril a measure OF the greatest
importance to the political welfare of
the State.
The foregoing is written and pub
lshed in order that the public may
know in advance of a successful attack
upon the act by the Non-Partisan
party, who is responsible for its failure
I sincerely hope, as all must who de-
sire good government, that the above
points which the NonPsrtisans intend
to urge before the courts may be an
swered, and the act sustained on &C
