Glenn Bates against former Senator
+. h. Taylor. Bates persists that the
ticket headed by his name is for him
for the Assembly, and that the Taylor
ticket is not. On the other hand, Tay-

for the Assembly and that the Bates
ticket is for some one else for the SEN

vacancy in the State Senatorship and
that he never made any combination
with Taylor that permitted the use of
his name on the Taylor ticket
