ADJOURNMENT OF THE INDIANA LEGISLATURES.
1t is well known that the senate of Indiana adjourned
without passing the necessary appropriation bills The
history Of the doings of that body is given in the address
of Governor Willard, which publish this morning
The majority of the senate black republicans and
they exposed themselves in black colors. Party and
nothing else, in all their thoughts from the time
they met until they adjourned will be by the de-
tails given Who is responsible for leaving the State
without revenue laws That is the question They have
the impudence to charge that the democracy did it, The
public will be slow to hold minority accountable for the
acts of body to which they belong but what is the fact
about this cse The bills all passed by the house
and ready for final action by the senate the last day
of the session. The house democratic and did its
duty On the last evening Of the senate all candid men
will admit that indispensable business ought be de-
spatched first bills necessary to support the insti-
tutons of the State should be first attended to- But
there two of contested seats to be acted
1t is evident that action Of no consequence
the last hours of the session had come
The two members had participated in all the work,
and the settlement of their claims matter of no
practical moment except for party triumph par
ty revenge Well the minority insisted upon taking up
the appropriation bills and passing them the majority
insisted on taking up the contested cases. SO that they
could oust another democrat from his seat Here was
the struggle, and in that struggle the time all con-
sumed. Were not the democrats right in their object
1t is impudcntly alleged that the democrats ought to
have yielded and allowed the majority to take up and
pass what they pleased without opposition The minor
ty have right to examine, discuss and oppose by all
legitimate means what they deem wrong They would
not properly represent their constituents il they did not
insist upon such right The time was short Differ
might exist the appropriation bills that would
consume every moment of it and how did the minority
know that after spending the time to oust democrat
from his seat the majority would take up tho appropria
ton bsi 1t is too plain where the guilt rests TO de-
ccive anybody The majority took up the specific appro
pration bi that provided for their employees and
passed it, They could do that But until they could
get their revenge by ousng democrat they would not
cgsate for the State.
