NM R. E. Q. KEASBEY, the Newark lawyer, who has con-
Y tributed much to public knowledge on questions of con.
stitutional law, takes serious exception in an extended
ernor-elect in the matter of the United States senatorship Mr..
Keasbeys views will not be dissented from by any constitutional
lawyer, for they hardly admit of argument. The question of vital
interest is whether the Federal Constitution may be amended by
q statute. The non enforceable and unmeaning act passed by the
Legislature, denounced when it was passed as a snifty evasion,
intended to have no effect in elections, and could have no validity,
anyhow, is evidently referred to by Mr.. Keasbey as a statute for
convenience of argument. The principle asserted and sought to
be established is that a candidate receiving a majority of
the votes cast at a primary meeting "in which all the can
than a third of the primary voters participated, and lin which,
under the Constitution, it was not their duty to express their
choice" should be formally elected by the Legislature. Mr..
Keasbey points out that the members of the Legislature, unlike
presidential electors, are chosen for another purpose than that of
electing United States senators, and are chosen at various times.
AS to the power TO elect as legislators, Mr.. Keasbey adds that "f
the people really demand the election of senators by the people
they can obtain 1t even through an unwilling senate by means of
an amendment to the Constitution" Mr.. Keasbey does not make
any reference to the farcical character of the primary 'Teferen-
people. he does not touch upon the fitness of the claimant
or the character of the views he represents in national policy. Nor
does he pass upon the executive act that brought the question
into prominence. He simply discusses the principle that has been
invoked and shows its fallacy and itr~1anger to popular respect
for the fundamental law of the lanmme
