LEGISLATIVE EXPENSES.

The REPUBLICAN remarked a few days
ago that under the influence of modern
practices, the expenses of session of the
Legislature have been materially de-
creased. The Bulletin and Judge Abel
have been looking into this question, and
the former attempts to prove we are in
error by citing the examples of 1870, 1871
and 1872. We were referring to the ses-
sion of 1874. We happen to know that
there was very little money distributed
among the members generally from any
quarter, and they received their mileage
and per diem from the State, and nothing
more. The Bulletin refers to the case of
David Young, Of Concordia. We only
know that his name stands on the rolls
the same as any other member. If he
succeeded in getting more than his share
from the other members or the employees,
the poor dupes are somewhat to blame
for that. We neither know nor care
whether Young cheated a private indi-
vidual or not. People must look out for
themselves. But he got no more from
the State, directly, than any other mem
Der
As for jobs, bought through by the
lobby, we only heard of one or two that
had any money. There were several
schemes that failed, and two or three very
bad looking pieces of legislation have
since come to grief in the courts. Thus
the miscarriages Of the last session have
a disheartening effect upon the politicians
and raise narrowing doubts as to whether
it will pay to invest much money in a
contest for election to the Legislature.
The reports of large sums being made by
members are sheer fables, as a majority
of the Committee on Appropriations for
the last session can mournfully testify.

board, which, by the laws of the State,
was the sole arbiter to decide who were
elected members of the Legislature. The
Supreme Court decided in favor Of the
Lynch board, and the Legislature de-
clared elected by that board counted the
votes, and declared the result in favor of
Kellogg, who, from that time to this, has
exercised the functions of Governor, in
which he has been acknowledged By the
Legislature, the courts, the President,
and by Congress.
Mr.. Brooks relied upon the collateral
effect Of decision Of the Supreme Court.
In the opinion of Fusionist, the Presi-
dent should have followed the Brooks con-
struction, while hereabouts he is soundly
rated for having acquiesced in the unani
nous decision of all the authorities. Peo-
pie who have no idea of consistency,
themselves, should be cautious about
criticizing others.

Some Engllshmen were travelling once
Some of the Noble Bl0odies-
And on the Rock of Barney found
A card stuck up of Moody's."

In Southern Ireland's woodies
Where no trees grow, but there you'll hnd,

That same card stuck up at Hollywood IS
Tackled by some Yankee on the gate,

Who keeps an inn at Amsterdam,

And on the Alps, another said,
Right where an eagle brood is,
Twas hanging from the nest all round

O, wondrOus' man how great his fame
I saw band Of Koordhees
From out the Desert, with flag

The world around has learnt the sound,
Where er the human blood is,
And soon they all will buy their shirts
At nowhere else but Moodys.
