The question now Is, WHAT nextf Monday may
show the end Of 1t ALL but probably 1t Will not. win
Ex-Governor Smith give up the Executive otiicef lt
Will make little difference the matter, there are
other rooms In which Mr.. Lindsay can attend TO the
duties or Governor Which viii the senate (entircy
republican, with one excepton) recognize AZ the
Governor, Lindsay or SMITH Monday is anxiously
Looked for.
The c0nsttutien OF this State provides that cer-
tam election shall DO opened and published
by the President OF the Senate In the p essence or
majority OF the General Assembly. This was done
to-day though the same person was not the Pres-
dent OF the Senate during all the time OF the count

precedent though the law was not vlo aod III letter

LEGAL QUESTION.
The wrlts OF Injunction were ISSUED against "Hon.
r. N. Barr, President Of the Scnate.n Was Il any
breach Of the writs for President Moren to count tho
v0tesS And has Judge the authority to forbid an
officer dong what the constitution unqnaliHedly
commands him to do within specified timer the
largely democratic ana OF course will sustain tile
new Governor and Treasurer But as nave before
inttmatod. the matter Is not strictly party cues
tiOn, aS large number Of republicans concur with
the democrats and conservatives, 1t Is q noticeable
TACT that the defeated carpet Daggers ana even the
defeated negro candisato for Secretary OF State,
yield gracefully to their defeat, while the three
scalawags contend against the voice OF the people.
The Governor and Treasurer allege In their bills OF
complains that they were dcieatsd BY fraud and
intimidation but the federal officers and soldiers
who were scattered all tho State say the cleo
ton was perfectly fair and orderly.
These two statements must be rcconciIed before
