want to do so few doubt But there
has toibe taken into consideration the
precedent which would thus be estab-

to belong to his office as railroad COM

his personal interest, namely, stump

himself open 10 criticism. Should the
legislature be induced TO take the
matter up. which it is claimed 70 be
ready to do. Mr.. Colquitt will have to
answer for the money end of the case
and may be obliged to refund a part
of the salary he has drawn during
the last four months The matter
viii come before the special session
of the legislature which Governor
Campbell called a few days ago for
other business and is liable TO result
in the establishment of a precedent
that may mean much in future cam
Daigns in this and other states.
