senator sherman.s Resolution

IN" resolution submitted by Senator sherman,
which opens the Capitol building, without dis
tinction, to every person during the impeach-
ment trial, only excluding from the diplomatic
reporters and ladies' galleries those who have
not tickets, gives satisfaction generally and
should be adopted. We are satisfied no dis
turbance will be created, and with proper pre-.
caution being taken to preserve order, the pro.
posed measure OF the Senator will meet with
universal commentator. We are not thu adj
yocates Of any select class in a matter o. this
kind, believing that, as the people OF the aoun-
try are the arbitcrs of its destiny, they should
not be excluded or declared from witnessing
that which Is momcntous and important, and
vitality concerns them. The Senators the mselyes
are already woaried with the ineessant impor-
tuning for tickets and are disposed to seek relief
BY the passage Of Senator Shcrman's resolution,
and allowing the gentlemen's gallery free to all
they wiH be GLsolved [som the importunItie. Of
the MASCULINE gender, and have the thanks Of
the masses for their considerable, wise and lm-
partial legislation.
