Voters Cireumvented by Legislature.

Six years ago. following his bolt OF
the st. Louis national convention. which
first nominated the late lamented NC
Kinley, he was reelected to the Senate
by all but the unanimous vote OF the
CoIore 10 Legislature, almost the entire
State at that time being anu-Repub1i-
can. But since that time the Repubii-
cans have been gradually gaining their
lost ground, and last November sac
ceeded In eIecting a majority Of three
to he over hot Sc Of the Legislature.
The State senate, however, remained
Democratic by q majority OF eleven,
thus giving that party a majority OF
eight on joint ballot
But the Republicans who desired the
return OF ex-senator Weleott conceived
the plan of turning defeat into victory
by the wholesale unseatfng OF Demo-
Gratis elected from Denver and succeeded
in oustiug enough Democrats TO give
the Republicans a majority OF two on
Joint ballot. The Democratic senate re-
taliated by unseating two Republican
senators and seating two Democrats,
thus restoring their majority on joint
ballot
For two weeks there have been two
state senates, neither OF which was full
Iy recognized by the other house and
the executive, and hence the question
Of regularity has arisen. The Demo-
Gratis finally corraIIed 6fty-one mem
bers, a bare majority Of the Legiaia-
ture. and elected Senator Teller il a
Joint session in which no Republican
participated
Ex-senator WoIcott has now given up
the fight, but many other Republicans
refuse to recognize the election Of Tell
er as legal. and the Republican gov
ernor may decline to sign the certiff-
cate of election. Hence the question
may arise as to what shall be lone
