the Commercial club has not had a
finer sense Of its responsibility to the

ashamed of the possession Of articles

Word has been received unofficially
at the State House that Representa-
tive-elect Victor H. Mutty. Republican.
of Brewer would not be able to take his
seat in the incoming Legislature, ow-
ing to business arrangements which
called for his removal to Boston as a
permanent location. Various state
ments in the press have referred to his
resignation and a well-known State
House official made mention of the sit
uation as follows:
How can he resign, when he has
never occupied the position? He has
been elected but has not qualified,
hence is a member OF no body. because
the body has not been organized. tic
has been rendered eligible to be sworn
in and take his sea: when the 18th Leg
islature shall be organized but II tho
services OF the Legislature should be
needed before next January i, would be
the 18th Legislature that would be
called. Hence, I think it must be i
declination on the part of Mr.. Mutty to
accept the election"
The question was then put up to AS
sistant Attorney General Oscar H.
Dunbar. who said:
" That is a point that seems not to
be covered by the Revised Statutes of
Maine. but my opinion Is that however
the official notice from Mr.. Mutty may
be worded it would be considered as
having the same effect as if he had re-
signed after being sworn in. The Stat
utes then provide for the filling Of q
vacancy, in Section IS. Chapter 6. r. 8.
as follows:
*and when the aldermen of
any city have knowledge that the seat
of a representative therein has been
vacated, they shall call meeting of
the said wards for the purpose of fill
ing such vacancy, and like proceedings
shall be had at such meetings as at
other meetings for the election of rep
resentatives.'
THAT would settle the disputed ques-
ton as to whether one or two elections
would be necessary. 1t has been asked
if the election of successor or anoth.
err representative to the Brewer seat in
the 18th Legislature might not be done
at the regular November election, but
that was found to be impossible, on ac-
count Of not giving sufficient time to
have the name placed on the official bal
lot, which has been printed and deliv-
cred to the various voting precincts
1.-THE section of the law above quoted
says that the proceedings to AL a va
cancy shall be like those at any regular
election and that surely means that
Brewer will have to hold a primary
and then a regular election to choose
someone to represent the city in the
18th LEGISLATURE"
