Abolition Fairness.

The Aboli,ions.s in the Legislature seem
10 carry the right 10 Judge Of the quaica'
iion Of persons to seats in either House, not
only TO great length, but beyond all lawful
and equitable grounds. The other day they
ousted Kur'z, the sitting member from San
Diego, aud gave the seat to the contestant
johnson. kurtz had been elected by the re.
turns received and canvassed BY the Board
Of Supervisors Of the county; and received
the certificate Of election. Subsequent to
this The vote Of precinct was received
which if counted would have elected John
son, but the returns were not received until
long after the time required by the statute,
neither were they trasntted as required by
law. The dominant party in the Assembly,
determined TO recognize these returns, and
give the seat to johnson; At the same time
they refused to permit Kurtz to produce evi'
.l~nce to show that many of the votes cast
for johnson in the precinct named, were by
non.residents Of the county. Our readers S
Of course will understand that knr,z was a
Democrat, and johnson an Aboli,ionist.
In the Senate Murray contested the seat
"f Murphy, from the Santa Barbara district,
The latter had received maj 'rity Of four
votes, BY the returns canvassed 10y the Super
vis, rs, and received the certificate. Among
the returns counted were those Of soldiers

outside Of the county and district. he

these votes bad been rejected by the Super
visors, Murray would have had majority
Of the votes Of The district. Bn, the Super

pervisors tf Santa Barbara, in ou,ragng
bo:h law and justice, and decided that the
sitting member. Murphy, should retain his
seat Murphy WAS an AboIlionist, and Muir
ray the contestant was Democrat.
But these things do no, surprise us. A
