MAY GO HIGHER. Some Prominent Legislators With Aspirations for Advancement. The last of the legislators lett for their homes yesterday. And their leaving suggests the speculation: "How many will come back?" The house of repiesentatives last term J had over 50 per cent, new mem-1 bers, and it is sale to.say that there may be as many new faces next fall. There will be several issues which will operate to change the personnel of the membership, and others will not come back as they will asnire to more lucrative, il ..... f not as distinguished, positions in the gilt of the people. Ther\ too, several have already been elected io other positions. Mr. W. IX Mann, of Abbeville will become a,director of the penitenliaty ,ayri Messrs. .A. K 11. Dukes and H.
