If that be the law, it would be necessary to get a vote of over 800 upon even routine business or re-elections--an impossibility, it is believed.

Daniels secured the lead at first by well directed approach shots, but Tuckerman evened the match at the turn and the score remained even till the fifteenth. Tuckerman won the fifteenth and sixteenth in bogey, and halved the seventeenth, thus winning the match...
