Another potent factor in the Tennet sec resnlt was the vote that was cast as a rebuke to Demoeratie action oa ' tha aaffrage amendment. The bitter ness of the light is still fresh ia the minds of folks and even the .puerile antics of the opposition will be remem bered wherever the subject of final i ratification is discussed.
