Opinion of the Court
We are of opinion that the petition filed with the secretary of State and considered in Hamilton v. Secretary of State, 204 Mich. 439, cannot be treated as a continuing petition, to be revived as such from time to time by the addition of other names. It was filed to effect a purpose. It was found and declared to be insufficient for the purpose because lacking signatures. It performed its office and as a petition, in view of the law, is dead.
