ton to be made public. Governor Stokes assured
Mr. Anderson that he had no objection
The Stokes men seem to be rapidly lining up
FOR Justice Pitney. Indications Of this ten
dency came from all parts of the state to-day.
Governor Stokes is a great friend of Pitney.
They were in the State Senate together. and
their supporters are friendly. Probably nothing
showed this more plainly than the fact that the
Governor and the judge were closeted for some
time In the formers private room this after
noon. They remained together until the Judge
had TO go back to the courtroom.

The supreme court by unanimous
vote in both cases has decided that
members of the legislature cannot serve
as members of the constitutional con-
vention, and that the lieutenant COVER
nor cannot vote in case of tie
on the passage of bill or joint resolu-
ton or anything taking the place OF
either. The latter decision does away
with the proposition to vote at the Sep
TENDER election upon the question OF
eliminating the forty per cent require
ment from the primary election bill. A
few more decisions sustaining the opin-
ion of the attorney general will cause
the peokle to wake up to the fact that
in the person of Jonn E. Bird the state
has legal adviser who knows the law.
