Presumably, the State Democratic
Executive Committee will be called
together shortly TO arrange for pri-
mary election. Indeed, Senator Ba-
cons death likely will hasten this
meeting somewhat, as there now will
be two Senators to be nominated for
the elective terms in that primary, one
for a full term and one for Senator
Bacon's unexpired term. There will
be a Governor to nominate, an en-
tirely new Legislature and full corps
OF State Department heads. besides
two Supreme Court judges and three
Appellate Court judges.
Undoubtedly, only one primary will
be called by the Democrats to nomi-
nate all these officers, and these nom
inees may have opposition, either in
dependent or by opposing party can
didates, in the regular State elections
In October, or the Federal elections in
November.
The succeeding Governor will be

Drafted Vacancy Act.
Curiously enough, the present Geor-

passed largely to enable the Governor
to name Senator Bacon to four
months vacancy between the end Of
his third term and the meeting of the

Enjoyed the Privilege.
The pOstOtiice was first established
for the principal and iD ~ countries
for the exclusive purpose - carrying
10fl1cinl correspondence by mail. Later
In France. Great Britain and the
United States because Of the great ex-
pansien and commercialization Of the
postal system the free carriage OF mail
matter cnine to be regarded as prlvl-
lege and this privilege was claimed by
persons In Official position.
In England the house Of commons
claimed the privilege as early as 1900.
1t was abolished In Great Britain.
however. by the passage Of Rowland's
cheap postage measure in 1880 In the
United Stntes the first appearance Of
the franking privilege is traceable to
the action Of the Continental congress
assuming control of the postofiice In
January. 1770 It is interesting to
learn that 1t was then granted to all
private soldiers actually in service for
all letters they might write or that
might be written to them.
In the early years Of the United
States government the privilege was
granted widely. but it soon became
necessary to restrict It An act Of
March 8 1s45. limited the privilege to
the president. the vice president. MEM
bers and delegates in congress. the
third assistant postmaster general and
al poetmasters. Other offices were d.
rected to keep quarterly accounts Of

Take Plenty Or Fine to Eat
There is n saving that ''rapid eat
ing is slow suicide" If you have
formed the habit of eating too rapidly
you are most likely suffering from
indigestion or constipation, which
will result eventually in serious i'll
ness unless corrected. Digestion be-
gins in the mouth. Food should be
Thoroughly ymasticated and insalivated.
Then when you have fullness Of
the stomach or feel dull and stupid
after eating, take one Of Chamber
lain's Tablets. Many severe cases Of
stomach trouble and constipation
have been cured by the use Of these
tablets. They are easy to take and
most agreeable in effect. Sold by all
