THE FILLING OF A CONGRESSION-
AL VACANCY.

~ NANhNCIs
Uncertainty seems to prevail as to
the way in which n vacancy in tho po-
sition OF member OF Congress is ftlled
in case of the death of an incumbent,
some people assuming that 1t may be
filled by appointment by the governor
az in case Of a United states senator.
Section 216 OF the Public statutes Of
Vermont provides that III q vacancy
occurs in the Office OF representative to
Congress in a congregational district
the governor shall issue proclama-
ton directing an election to be made
In such district to MI the vacancy. on
a day designated In such proclamation +:
and such election shall he held and
the result ascertained and declared as
provided In cases where there IL no
election on the first Tuesday in Sep
TENDER"
Section 2lo to whioh reference is
thus made provides that IT In any
district no perron has a majority Of
the votes the committee shall forth
with give notice thereof to the COVER
nor and forward to him a statement Of
tho number OF votes given for each
person"
The following section provides that
the governor on receiving such notice
shall forthwith issue a proclamation,
which shall be published in each news
paper printed in such district, that no
election has been made In such dis
trict." Continuing. the section gives
the technical detail. Of the methods Of
procedure.
II Is evident from this that Cover
nor Mead is required by law TO issue a

1t 10 to be feared that some OF us ala not
fully appreciate the place which Con-
gresham d. J. Foster was filing In on,

the large work he was doing. United

In the city Saturday. having come to Yer
mont to attend Congressman Fosters fu-
neral to-day. said that members Of both
branches OF Congress without regard to
! party affiliations were eloquent In their
tributes of praise as well as in their ex-
precision OF a sense Of loss. Mr. Foster
had been at Washington so long that he
was a familiar figure on the streets Of the
national capital. and he had come to take
conspicuous part in the affairs OF the
District Of Columbia
Senator Page spoke in particular Of thu
loss which Congressman Fosters death
would mean for the Vermont delegation IN
Congress. Mr.. Foster was recognized as
particularly efficient worker as we'll as
a popular and diplomatic advocate OF any
worthy cause he espoused. and Senator
Page says It will be impossible
for anybody to Ali his place SEN

lions which had continued without inter-

not lightly given or won. reflects a senti-
ment that generally prevails outside Of
