IS THERE A SENATOR?
A Question Which Is of General and
Statewide Interest

The article following is reproduced
from the Tmes-Democrat and is of
Statewide interest:
To the Times Democrat: There is a
very serious question as to whether Mr.
Thornton will be seated as United States
Senator, and if he is not seated in De-
cember, this State may have but one
senator at a time when she will badly
need every vote and every influence she
can get
Section 8 of Article I of the Constitu-
ton of the United States says: "And if
vacancies happen by resignation or 9th
erwise during the recess OF the 1egisla-
ttre of any State, the executive thereof
may make temporary appointments until
the next meeting of the Legislature,
which shall then fill such vacancies"
The McEnery vacancy happened dur
ing a session of the Legislature. It has
never been filled, because Governor San
ders never became senator. If it is con-
tended that the vacancy was flied, then
Sanders was senator when he accepted
the position, and hence could not have
validly called the Legislature together
in extra session, it being impossible for
him to be both Governor and Senator
at the same time.
The true position TO take, however, is
that the vacancy (created during the
session of the Legis1ature) has never
been filled, and the Governor has no au-
thority TO make a Temporary appoint
ment until the next meeting of the Leg

GOVERNOR SANDERS ACTION

THE THREE RIDDLES

Senator He Is Still the Governor.
Status of His Appointee.

The New Orleans Times-Democrat' S
Washington staff special says: 1t is un-
kind of Governor Sanders to treat
Washington in the way he has treated it
by deciding to decline the senatorship.
His decision, as reported in the meager
press association report, furnished three
puzzles for Washington. The first was
as to how he will go about declining.
VIII Jared Young Sanders write let
ter to Jared Young Sanders telling the
latter that the former has decided he
does not want the office handed him on
July 6, or will he simply write brief
not to 'Jared Y. Sanders, Governor" a."
telling him that he hereby resigns the
tender of office made to him by the Leg
islature of July 6, sign himself plain
Jared Y. Sanders without the Govern
or" attached, or will he simply permit
Jared Y. Sanders, Governor, to learn
from the public prints that ]. Y. San
ders has decided he will not serve as
Senator and will allow the Governor to
exercise his power of appointment.
1t is an unique case The old-timers
here are hurrying to the old records to
find parallel, if they can. In the early
days of the Republic it was not rare
thing for man who had been appointed
or elected to the Senate to decline the
honor. In those days United States SEN
atorships ranked very low The Senate
of the First Congress had to adjourn
from day to day for about two weeks
because not enough senators would at
tend TO make Up a quorum.
If Jared Young Sanders resigns, he
must have been a United States Senator.
If he was a United States Senator, he
was not Governor of Louisiana when
the extra session was called.
If he was not United State Senator
then the strict constructionists here hold
that the vacancy is the one caused by the
death of Senator McEnery, which oc-
Cured while the Legislature was in ses-
sion, and which that body has an oppor-
tunity Of filing, according to the prece-
dent in the John Walter Smith case. Il
if is the McEnery vacancy. then the
Governor has no power to fill it by ap-
pointment. All he could do would be Il
call the Legislature in session again t.
elect somebody.
That's puzzle number one. The sec
ond is based on the ignorance here o1
the fact that there is a revolution i'm
pending IN Louisiana politics, and tina
fear Of being hurt by it probably is wha
caused the declinatiotl. The puzzle il
why he gives up senatorstip to take
such a nebulous thing as the commits
sioner generalship of the exposition.
Number three is as to where the sal
ary that has been accumulating sine,
the death of Senator McEnery will go
The most general impression is that th'
Rapides man will get it if he gets tn,
appointment, and the Senate thinks hi
commission, as signed by the Governor
is all right and entities him to seat
But there is enough thought on tn,
other side to keep the matter puzzle
and it is unkind on the part of the Gov
ernor to make mental exertion by Wash
