THE Democratic members OF the Indiana
Legislature, who deserted In order to break
up the session, left the general appropriation
bill unfinished, although they might have
completed II before tho hour for which the
constitutional amendment had been made
the special order arrived. They lcft the
State debt, the penitentiarics, the lunatic
asylum, and other benevolent Institutions,
without any provision. They have forced
necessity for calling new elections In forty
six counties, and another session Of the
Legislature, which will infict on the State q
cost Of from $75, 900 to 100000.
II they do as well as they hope In
the elections, II will not add TO their
power Of preventing the amendment.
They, then, will have no resource left
but to desert again. Unless the Dem
ocratic members design to prevent any lcgis-
lation for two years-that Is, until the cxpi-
ration of the term OF this General Assembly
and thus to make a general delivery Of
prisons and asylums, and to dlshonor the
faith OF the State, there was no rational pur-
pose in their desertion. As II Is, 1t docs not
look like the act Of party that has conf
dence In itself.
