r. L. Bats, snoWy-haired former

Of terms as TO impeachment. and
finally read the house a little lee
ture on what constitutes impeach-
ment.
The house "impeaches" sgl Of

charges against him OF acts that

high crimes and misdemeanOrs.
Judge Bats pointed out.
The senate doesn't imDeaCh him
II tries him upon impeachment,
and If II sUstalns the charges. II
cOnv.cts him upon Impeachment.
II takes only a majority vote OF
the house to prefer the charges; i
requires the affirmative votes Of

impeachment.
