AN ATTEMPT is being made to show that
there will be complications in organizing
the next State Senate. 1t has been
claimed that the election of Senators in
Ocean, Morris and Burlington counties
must be for the unexpired terms of the
former officials and that there has not
been any writ issued, as required by the
Constitution, showing that these positions
are vacant. The death of the Senator
from Ocean, and the designations, to &C.
cept offices under the State government,
of the Senators from Morris and Burling-
ton, it is contended, make vacancies In
those counties. The officials from Morris
and Ocean had portion of their term to
serve, but the Senator from Burlington
had practically completed his term and
his successor must be elected next Tues
day, notwithstanding he does not qualify
until January. Nobody dreamed of
an extra session when the Senators from
Morris and Burlington resigned and there
is no doubt that Burlington is without a
Senator. The question that somebody is
trying to get into controversy oyer is
whether the successor to Mr.. Robbins will
be elected for three years, or only until
next January. The Constitution also pro.
vides that each house shall be the
Judge of the elections, returns and quail
fications of it's own members, and if the
Senate decides that the members from
the three counties are elected and on
such decision seats them. that will proba-
blv settle the entire matter.

placed on the ticket of his party, but the
Constitution says nothing shall intervene
to prevent voter from casting his ballot
for whom he chooses. This was done in
Southampton township and Democrat
who was defeated in his own party box,
got more votes in the other box than q
straight Republican did. and consequent
ly his name goes on the Republican ticket
as the candidate of that party. The rule
might have worked otherwise. Under
this regulation nine Democrats, had they
received majority of votes, could have
been elected members of the Republican
Executive Committee, or the Democratic
candidate for Senator. County Clerk. or
Member of Assembly, might have been
placed on the Republican ticket. That
this is the Constitution and the law there
is no doubt, and the argument is advanced
that it is all right as it gives voter the
chance to endorse a candidate, regardless
of his politics, that Republican may
prefer some other candidate than those
offered him by his own party. This only
strengthens the opinion of many, that
there should be but one election and thai
the man receiving the highest number Of
votes should be declared elected.

THAT man is bound to obey a subpoena
to attend as a witness has been decided
in the affirmative, but it has also been de-
cided that under certain conditions, he
need not give testimony. The case in
question was when Irvine E. Mcguire,
secretary of the State Board of Assessors,
refused to answer the summons to appear
before the State Board of Taxation to
give testimony on information In posses
sion of the Office where he is employed.
The Attorney General decided that Mr.
Mcguire must obey the summons. so on
Thursday he appeared before the State
Board of Taxation and he was asked If he
was the secretary OF the Board of Asses
sors. He said he was. Then he was asked
if he had brought the records of his office,
to which he replied that he had not as it
would have been physically impossible
for him to do so and also that the work OF
his Office would have been stopped If he
had brought the books. These answers
were declared to be ample excuse for not
producing the records and Mr.. Mcguire
was allowed to depart. The State Board
of Assessors and the State Board of Taxa
ton are of equal jurisdiction and while
subpenas from either body must be hon
ored, there was nothing that could require
member or employee of either board to
give information in his keeping by reason
of such membership. When this matter
was first made public there was somewhat
of tempest In teapot over it and at
tenn pts were made to show that Mr.. Ma
guire was acting in an arbitrary way, but
the decision in the case indicates that he
was not so far wrong as some people
would try to make 1t appear.

RESERVATIONS have been handed in to
the Township Committee of Toms River
by the Board of Protectors, or as it is
more Familiarity known, the jag com
mittee" The resignation was laid over
for future consideration. The reason Of
fered for getting out of the job is that the
committee does not have the backing of
the community. This is very often the
case. There are those who are quite
anxious to have hard and unpleasant work
done by somebody else but they do not
care to be known in the matter. While
willing to stand behind the guns they do
not care to be found touching them oil.

ONE MORE week remains In which to
conduct the political campaign In this
county. There has been apparently no
interest on the outcome and reports from
all sections show that the one thing needed
is to get the vote out. There is too much
confidence displayed on the part Of some.
Where there are local contests there will
be a good vote out. There will be much
work done between now and next Tues
day and there is probability that inter
est will be aroused that will have good
effect. The style of campaigning is very
different now from what it was In years
gone by No parades, no red fire and no
large meetings except when there are
national or state officers to elect. The
candidates now present their personal
claims by visits to the several localities
where they expect to receive votes.
There is another good departure and that
is the freedom from personalities and mud
singing that was the rule in the past.

The packing plant in Sioux Falls
started up Tuesday and the Morrell
Bros. commenced to kill hogs. They
slaughtered 25 the first day and hope
to reach the full capacity of the plant
within a short time, which is 400
hogs per day. 1t has taken a number
of years to get the packing plant &c
going, although it has been erected
for a good twenty years or lore.
There is no reason why Sioux Falls
cannot buy hogs for the plant as we'll
as any other city engaged in the pack
ing business, the point being that
they will have to pay up the same
prices. South Dakotans can we'll af-
