suc, il made to turn. The advice OF ,
the Times to the Republican Senate OF
Indiana is mos; yiliainous, aud wonld T,
no, be less 30 If il came from demo
cratic journal, for it is snbvers''e OF all
lust notions Of republican government
The majority shall rule, in a const'tu-
,ioual way Of course, but when one
branch Of legislative body refuses to
20 into joint ballot for the election OF
United States Senators, simply because
the result might be the election Oh
Senator adverse To the views OF one
branch Of the Legislature, is nothing
less than an attempt TO rule 10y 'actlous
proceedings, which all parties ishould
unite ia condemning. We haze been
disposed to look upon the y Y. Times
a. a respectable and somewhat c"nser-
yAtive paper, but this advice i one OF
tho worst possible character, ior II II
should be taken, and all the states Of
the Union should be in the same fix,
with legislature, one branch Of which
was Republican, aud one branch Dem
ocratic, then no 'nltcd States Senators
could We elected. and the go> ernmeE.

Republican presses stop AT nothing ~
their efforts to create disumun vi
the States, disorder in our federal sys-
ten, and complete anarchy N sections

they are willing to resort to any means
Of revenge which even Aruold would

Ii is astonishing 10 witness the many
alarming symptoms of death to this
Republic that have appeared since the
demise OF the old Wing parry. 1t is
time for all patriots 10 unite in rcbu-
king demagogucs and traitors who
seek the destruction OF a government
which. for freedom. has never been
,qualled since the world was.
"MiSSEsoTA.-t,ov. German, in his
message 10 the Minnesota Legislature
ias, Winter. stated the population of
the Territory at 10000. as shown bv
the CENSUS taken in the Summer pre-
vious. A, the opening OF the naviga-
ton IN the Spring il was estimated at
100000, aud now, near the close Of
navigation, it is set down 10y St. Paul
paper at 100000. At its present rate
OF increase, Minnesota will have pop
ulation Of at least half q million in
1890"
REMARKS Minnesota is like agreat
overgrown lubber who refuses to exer-
else the freedom OF independence when
reaching the age Of 81 years, and pre-
fers to remain under the leading strings
Of his father, rather than assume the
rights, duties and obligations of man
hood. With population emitting
her to two representatives in Congress-
Minnesota fails to apply for admission
into the Union as an independent
State. This puerile conduct is account
ed for on the supposition that she is
too misery to pay the cost of State
government, and therefore delays as
ssrting her independence, so as to COM
pei tie general government to detray
the expenses of their Territorial gov
eminent. 1t is disgraceful, and GER
tainly conveys an unfavorable impress
sion Of the character Of her citizens,
