The Pioneer positively says in the above
that they could and no doubt this fact was
equally well known to the acting Governor
when he deliberately fled his veto of this
important bill.
In word, he kneu that when he fled it
he was disfranehising the People Of Minnesota
Of their proper representation in Congress, or
was trying his best to do sol
In assuming so fearful responsibility to
subserve his party's interests and his own,
the reasons he offers for his course had needs

what his reasons on paper were.

The Municipal Toady Used Up!

The Municipal T0ady Used Up!
At the time that the Toady-in- Chief of the
Common Council, "Gen." EMERSON, brought
forward his prodigious resolutions concerning
the views of this paper in regard to financial
and State policy-it will be remembered that
AID. BRANCH offered substitute even more
pertinent to the main question than the original
drafted by the aforesaid genera" and ROTARY
MILLS of the Pioneer. The substitute was
handed up to the Presidents desk, from whence
it mysteriously disappeared. A copy, how
ever, came into the possession Of the Clerk,
and was, as it should have been, entered on
the record, to every body's amusement, and
to his (the mayoralty aspirants) great chag-
rim.
At the next session of the Council, the
doughty general aforesaid descends from
his throne, rises to a question of privilege,
and then commenced volley of scandalous
abuse against the Clerk-denouncing him as
a forger, falsifer of the record, &c. &C., and
said the singer Of scorn should be pointed at
subordinate officer who would do such an
act''-i. {. enter on the record resolutions
which had been rejected.
Mr.. Conway, who had no chance to reply
to the great Toady's abuse at the time, uses
up Mr.. Emerson in card in yesterdays Times,
from which we extract.
Rule 18th, on page 1919, of the City Charter
and Ordinances, requires that "aW motions,
resolutions or amendments, shall be entered
at large upon the minutes or proper record,
whether they are Withdrawn, rejected or
adopted ID S provided they are in possession Of
That the resolutions In question were not in
possession of the Council, Mr.. Emerson, with
all his theatrical emotion, has failed to prove.
In regard to the charge of signing the Pres-
dents name to the Council proceedings, with
out authority, 1 need only say, that it has
always been customary for the Clerk to attach
the presiding officers name to the minutes,
and that, in itself, I consider an implied au-
thority sufficient to warrant me in doing as
did.
With respect to my classifying the record,
am not surprised that the charge emanated
from the source it did. The man whom poll
teal intrigue has put in possession of the high
est trust within the gift Of the Council-the
man who SO far forgets himself, and "the
dignity of the Council" as to purloin from the
table portion ofthe public journal, and make
his boast of it in open Council-it is not to
be wondered at that he would lay the charge
offorgerY upon a subordinate officer. In con-
clusion, haye oply to hope that the man who
thus betrays his trust, and to cover his own
iniquities, seeks to impeach the character and
injure the reputation Of another, without the
slightest shadow of truth to sustain his charge,
will receive the doubly-merited reward at
hands OF an impartial community.

when he vetoed the bill instantly; assigning
however, and of course, other but insufficient
reasons for his action.
The deduction we drew from all these facts,
was, that the Democratic ParM of Minnesota
would be solely responsible if the sovereignty Of
this State was, at any session of the next Con-
gress, unrepresented-orr rather lift was repre-
sented at Washington by only one man, and he
not particularly able nor pure man, instead
of by four representatives, that being the num-
Der our State is entitled to claim.
Upon the article thus referred to and reca-
pitulated, the Pioneer and Democrat COM
mented at some length-not so much in JUS
tiication of the conduct of ITS Party in the
Legislature, which it seems unable to defend
by single reason for its course,-but mostly
with the view of excusing the Mr.. S1BLEY for
his share in the disgraceful conspiracy to rob
Minnesota of her proper position in Congress,
and to prevent the People from choosing their
national representatives, for fear, forsooth,
they might take the liberty of choosing Re.
pu6licans!
The Pioneer, we were glad to observe, made
one Admission in its article which we wish
people to note down for future use. It is as
follows:
sit is true that at the close of the session.
a law passed both branches of the Legislature,
entitled IAN Act regulating general elections,
and prescribing the duties Of officers in rela-
ton thereto; :" and that under this law, cleo
tons could have been held last October for
Representatives, in Congress"
Very good-this admission saves world
of trouble; and it precludes the organ or any
other Of Mr.. S1BLEY's friends from pleading
hereafter that he was not aware that under

The letters which the Governor has received up
on this subject are from men in whose word he

of the existence of such societes-numbering as
