ELECTING OFFICERS
IN GEORGIA
Figuring On What May Hap
pen Next June

National interest has been conferred
around state politics throughout the
country during the past month in vir-
tually all the states except Georgia.
According TO the present laws Of Of
: Gel gliding in this state there is a
wliC stretch of apathy between the
elections and induction to Office. The
governor is elected one year and in
augurated about ten or twelve months
later, in the next year. In the case ii
UHitd States senator there is also &
long lapse, though generally the pubs
lie knows what is going to happen. for
they express themselves at the polls
sud the house and senate always con-
cur.
However, there is a variance OF opin-
ion, just at this time, as to what Will
be the result of an election OF SEN
ator to fill the unexpired term Of SEN
a.or Clay, though ex-Gov Terrell is
holding over by appointment Unless
there is a primary the house and SEN
ate will have the pleasure of acting
independently this summer, when the
bodies will meet in annual session
also along about year after election
time.
There will be many new members
G. the upper and lower houses OF the
General Assembly of Georgia and <n
tie event they have the power If
selecting a senator left with them they
will have the eyes of the thinking
public of the state focused upon them,
for the time being, anyway
According to an eminent authority
on the subject, the house and senate
will ballot separately on the senator
the first day. 1t will take 80 votes
in the house to elect, there being 1873
members Of the house In the senate
/ % will be Necessary for choice, that
body numbering "A members.
/ Complex situations may arise, how
ever, and in the event the house gives
/ just one majority and the senate ties
j en- the two bodies will ballot joint
ly the following day and consequently
the joint ballot will elect a senator
for the legislators vote has the same
weight as a senator's in joint ballot
Quite a change can be made by this
arrangement According to it the sen.
ate might give, We will say, a ma.
jority of five to one candidate ant
the house give a majority of seven tt
another, When the joint ballot i.
taken one of the candidates will b
entirely eliminated unless there Shout
be some unforeseen occurrence t

SHEEHAN AND SHEPARD
TO GET OUT OF FIELD

Albany, n. Y, Jan. 30.-Belief that
the senatorial deadlock will be broken
before the end of the week was mani
tested in all quarters here today.
Though neither insurgents nor reg

that effect, they are basing their hop IS
on the compromises that are being
made to get Sheehan and Shepard to
agree. If they can be induced 70
