His measured words of wisdom will long remain with those who heard them. The success of this banquet can well be attributed to the untiring efforts of its two chairmen, Mr. Kelly and Mr. Let- tieri, and to their committees, composed of the following men: Mr. Gallota, Mr. Ormiston, Mr. Reardon, Air.

He then dwelt at some length upon the fact that the fathers of the constitution never in¬ tended that it should be construed in any manner kindred to that in which oppo¬ nents of his side would have one believe. He was followed on the platform by Mr. Richard English, who again defined the topic they were discussing, and then dissertated at considerable length on the subject of state certificates. He held that although the documents were sup¬ posed to attest to the validity of a sena¬ tor’s election they were more or less easily obtained, and at times by men whose methods of campaigning had been decidedly questionable. The next speaker was Mr. Fred Loughran, of the affirmative, who dwelt at some length upon the fact that the people and not the Senate should judge whether or not a man was entitled to the certificate. The speaker ujsed as his chief authority the constitution, and finally, concluded with a fiery declamation to the effect that the “admission of corrupt men into the Roman Senate was the cause of its fall.” Mr. Gibbons continued the discussion for the negative by relating at some de¬ tail, the corrupt practices utilized in cer¬ tain districts at election times, and stated that there had appeared on some ballots the names of persons who had been dead for a century, while at the same time returns were said to have been sent in from such distant localities as Asia Minor. Mr. Glavin devoted his speech to the fact that heretofore the certificate of valid election had always been sufficient to seat a senator and that there was no cause to alter the precedent, and, furthermore, he stated that the constitution was meant to "Meinholtz, the Times Wants You be a protection for the people and not for the senate. Mr. Smith concluded the debate proper by a speech which he opened with a very FRED E.
