It is that com mittee which recommends whether a man shall or shall not be seated. So the vote of the Senate on Thursday is | significant, in that it is the first effe of the investigation conducted during the last campaigr hould a man come to the Senate | door with credentials of election in | which there have been charges, but on | which there has been no investigation, | the chances are the oath would be ad- | ministered and the matter referred to | the committee on elections and privi- | leges for investigation. The action in the Smith case is due to the fact that | Senators felt the matter had | Leen thoroughly investigated, and they | did not wish to use up the Senate's time with extensive hearings or fur- ther debate. | The verdict indicated is a refusal of a seat to Col. Smith by a much larger vote than that taken Thursday. Sev-| eral voted to administer the oath and | investigate afterwards who on me‘ final report might not vote to seat. In any event the right of Col. Smith | to a seat in this Congress will have | been denied in a few days. There is nothing to prevent the Governor of Hlinois then from appointing another | person to fill the vacancy caused by | the death of the late Senator McKin- ley for the term expiring on March 4 of this year. | Then™ Col.

Yet he can only relinquish the sena torfal toga voluntar So if he re signs the post to which he is elected, then a special election will have to be called for next November. It is not of | improbable, however, that Col.
