 Session Comes.

In looking over the changes in the personnel of the Legislature. as they Will appear when the extra session IS convened. 1t develops that Representa- tive R. Tyler Goodwyn, of Montgom- cry county. had forwarded his resig- nation to the Governor several months ago. This will leave a vacancy to be hlled in this county.
 MT. Goodwyn said that he had for warded his resignation to the Govern or some time ago. as he thought that tho duties of the Legislature were over and that he would be more free in the practice of law. He was sur prised that 1t was not generally known that he had resigned. for he had told number of friends of it. He said that for some months past he had been devoting more time to his private business and less to poli- tics and as part of that plan, he had severed his connection with the Leg islature. Before the extra session convenes. 1t will be necessary for the voters of Montgomery country to se- feet a successor to MT. Goodwin, who played a prominent part in the pro- ceedings of the House.
 MT. Goodwin. 1t is understood, sup ported Governor Conner in the prI- maries and when he first went to the
  minstration on the first Of the II plat form bills" But he later decided that the majority was going too fast and found himself on the minority side.

 The status of Senator Charles B. Teasley raises an interesting ques- tion.

Senator Teasley was one of the lead CTS of the brave minority" in the Senate, which so often opposed = ad- ministration measures and which were 50 OIIen run Oyers Dy the steduh Toiicr of the majority Regardless of wheth- CT he does or does not sit in the Sem ate during the extra session. Senator Teasley Is of the opinion that the ac- tive minority of the past will be the majority of the future. when the Sem ate convenes. If Senator Teasley should be ineligible.

 VIII Miss Senator Luslk.
 Another important change in the personnel of the Senate will be the absence from that body of Hon. John A. Lusk, the most vigorous of all the administration men in the Senate.
