The Boston Herald is conducting a
campaign in behalf of biennial elections
and legislative sessions in Massachusetts,.
That unfortunate commonwealth still
elects governor and other state officers
every year, and has a legislature in ses.
sion about half the time. There are In
Maine people who would like to go back
10 annual elections in this state, and
Others who, strange al it may seem,
would like to have annual sessions of the
legislature, but they are so few that they
are really conspicuous because of Their
views on the matter.

AN IMPORTANT DECISION,
Supreme Court Holds That The Governor
Has No Authority To Appoint For
Unexpired Terms.

The Arkansas supreme court
by decision rendered last Mon
day declared that amendment No.
3 to the constitution of the state,
which authorizes the governor to
ill vacancies by appointment, is
void.
This decision upholds the cir
cult court of Lincoln county in a
test case. The supreme court
declares that when vacancies in
nnexpired terms occur special
elections must be held.
The supreme court holds that
amendment No. 3, which has
heretofore been considered a part
of the state constitution, is void
because at the general election at
which it was voted upon it did
not receive majority of the votes
cast at such election. The court
holds that while a proposed
amendment may receive a major
ity of the votes cast for and
against the proposition, such does
not legally adopt it, and to be
legally passed it must have re-
celved a majority of all the votes
cast in the election. A voter,
therefore, who votes neither for
nor against a proposed amend
ment really votes against it.
This decision will effect other
amendments than No. 3 and may
be expected to create some con-
fusion in the state, but the su-
preme court declares the law is
plainly in line with its rulings.
This action by the higher court
removes from the governor an
important power which he should
not be allowed to hold.

THE SAN FRANCISCO HORROR.
Pacific Coast City Suffers Greatest Dis
,aster Since The Beginning of
History.

The blow that fell upon San
Francisco last week, with which
the world is now more or less
familiar, is doubtless the greatest
horror in history.
Three -fourths of the beautiful
city is a total wreck and ruin, but
ono-fourth of the city escaping
the fire. The banks, hotels,
ne wspaper offices, city buildings
and best residences went up in
flames, and the loss to property is
said to be close TO three hundred
million dollars.
The number Of dead is not
known and probably never will
be, although one thousand bodies
have been recovered and buried
as they are found in trenches.
Three hundred thousand peo-
pie have been rendered homeless,
and are spending the nights in
the parks and fields. The human
suffering is great.
Large contributions are flowing G
into the stricken city from all
parts of the Uuited States, and
the situation is gradually improv-
ing.
