Topeka. Kan., Jan. 26.—The elec-
tion of J. L. Bristow as United States
senator from Kansas will be made
Wednesday.
The proceedings to be had on these
two days are purely formal and sim-
ply confirm the action of the people
of Kansas last August, when they
selected Mr. Bristow as the republi-
can nominee and in November In
sending ji, republican legislature to
Topeka.
The democratic members of both
branches, of course, will vote for H.
P. Farrelly, the democratic candi-
date, as all of the members are pledg-
ed to his support, as the republican
members are pledged to Mr. Bristow
by the primary.
Shortly before noon today each
house will take a vote on United
States senator. This vote will be re-
corded in the journals of each house.
The vote will be by roll call. On
Wednesday, just before noon, the
senate will adjourn and march in a
body to the house and then the joint
session will convene. The notations
in the journal of each house will be
ready and Mr. Bristow will be form-
ally declared elected without another
ballot being taken. If he had not
secured a majority on the separate
ballots it would be necessary for the
house and senate members to meet
at 1 2 o'clock each succeeding day of
the session to take one ballot each
day on senator.
Mr. Bristow will have 119 votes on
the joint ballot as there are but 46
democrats in the two branches of
the legislature.
