THE SPECIAL SESSION. Baltimore
Sun, always good authority, furnishes the
administration programme for the extra
session, The president will not, it says,
send in the annual message, but will
transmit merely the reason why the ex-
ira session was called, and submit the es,
Inmates of the war department for the
army appropriations. Other executive
papers of importance, are, however, ex-
pected, among them communication
from the secretary of the navy calling at
tention to the deficiencies in that depart
ment, report from the secretary of state
on the subject of American representation
at the Paris Exposition, and request
from the secretary of the interior for new
legislation as to pensions. The democrat
ic programme is not outlined but We are
warned, from New York, that it includes
a series of investigations" before any
of the appropriations will be granted.

Roll OF REPRESENTATIVES. NJ York,
Oct. 1.-The Tribune's Washington speci-
al says: Clerk Adams of the house said
to-day he had received the credentials of
representatives in congress from all the
districts except the fourth California and
first Missouri districts. He is unotficially
informed that credentials in the fourth
California district have been given to
Pacheco He alse alluded to the Florida
and Colorado representatives whose names
have not yet been placed upon the rolls,
contestants have asked permission to lay
more papers before the cleark of the house,
to which request he has acceded. Adams
said he had reached his conclusions in
these cases and would place the demo-
cratic representatives on the roll, leaving
the contest to be determined in the house,
the exact majority he IS not yet prepared
to give, though he says it will not be less
than twelve The California and Missouri
cases will make difference Of four.

PooE MORTON. Miserable radical that
he is and meanly as he has always acted
toward the democracy, a feelineuf sympa-
thy cannot be helped for poor old Senator
Morton, who will probably never again
figure in the politics of this country. His
pitiable condition is thus decribed by a
correspondent:
"Draw string from your right arm-pit to the
base of the brain the left side; consider every
thing below practically dead, and every Thing above
You have, IN word, Senator MOrtOn's condition"
We wonder, while in this condition,
with death staring him in the face and
shaking his skeleton finger at him, if
Morton does not often think of the part
he took in the late presidential struggle
and how he worked to defraud the people
out of their choice for president. No
doubt he wishes now that he had acted
otherwise and bitterly regrets the party
venom that made him blind to Justice and
right. In viewof his nearapproach to that
dread tribunal where lie will have to an
swer for the deeds done IN the body, we
judge he would feel easier in his con-
science if he had refused to allow wrong
TO stife right, But all these things he
viii have settle with the judge of all the
earth, who gets atthe most secret motives
and from whom there is no escape.

"Ah UNMITIGaTED LIE" Mr.. Stan
ley Matthews is evidently going little
too far when he makes, as in his discus
sion with General Ewing, so plump and
comprehensive denial of the fact of his
negotiations last winter with prominent
Southern leaders. There are hundreds
of witnesses to the fact that Mr.. Matth-
ews repeatedly sought ont Southern Cen
gressmen and others at the Capitol and
at the hotels, urged them to allow the
electoral count to proceed, and assured
them that everything would be made
right from the South. The whole hist, ~
of these negotiations as derived from the
mouths IF the principals in the affair was
given last spring. Mr. Matthews did not
then presume to deny any Of the material
points. Now, when brought to bay on
the stump at home, he undertakes to do
so. As this whole matter viii undonbt-
edly be investigated by a committee of
Congress, ii will be seen whether Mr.
Matthews, when pnt unlier oath, will have
the hardihood to deny the promises which
he made in the presence of those to whom
the promises were made.

HOwARD's COMMAND. = The Bozeman
Times speaks thus of the march of How
ards column through the national park and
the pitiable condition of the troops: In our
last issue we chronicled the fact that Gen.
Howard, with his whole command, wagon
and pack train, had arrived at a point five
miles below the falls of the Yellowstone !;
an achievement hitherto deemed impossi-
bic by persons well posted in The character
of the route traversed by the troops from
Henry's lake to the Yellowstone, Maj.
Belham informs us that it is a wonderful
feat to take wagons on that route, and
Gen. Howard certainly deserves credit for
the energy he has shown on this march, if
not for efficient Indian fighting. We learn
that the men composing Howard's COM
mand, who have travelled 400 miles over
tine toughest route IN North America, are
the raggedest troops ever seen; their
shoes and boots are worn out and they
are bare footed; they are binding up their
feet in old gunny sacks and such other
articles as may answer the purpose, to en-
able them to march over the rocks and
crags on their route. They are a pitiable
sight, and deserve the commiseratiOn of
the people and government.

THE Us11Ep srArEs sgsArE is now in

The UNITED STATES SENATE is now in
a nicely balanced condition. There are
thirty-eight States, and there should be
seyenty-six senators. At present there
are but seventy three, two being wanted
from Louisiana and one from South Caro-
lima. They Will be democrats, which will
make the Senate stand thirty-slx demo-
Gratis, thirty y-aine republicans, and one In
dependents Senator Davis Of Illinois,
whom the democrats elected. Christlancy
Of Michigan is likewise rated as an inde-
pendent, having been elected as such.
For most purposes the democrats can
therefore secure thirty-seven votes, always
enough to prevent mischief. 1t seems I'M
possible for Morton to engage actively In
political life again, with both legs and his
left arm paralyzed That would make
tie. And if Patterson of South Carolina
should be compelled to be absent, by
reason Of the CRIMINAL proceedings now
pending against him, that would give the
democrats at once positive working
majority in the Senate. And all this Is
both possible and probable. But the next
Congress after this will witness the final
Disappearance of the republican party
from the Senate. Sargent of California
will be displaced by a democrat so VIII
Spencer of Alabama, and Dorsey of Ar
kansas, and Conover of Florida, and
Conkling of New York, and Patterson of
South Carolina, and Cameron of Penn
sylvania, on whose deposition Governor
;iurtrsnst is fully bent, and Stanley
Mathews of Ohio, and Morton of Indi-
ana, and Oglesby Of Illinois. The changes
thus indicated will secure the democratic
majority in the Senate of from seven TO
eleven, as above stated. And with a
thoroughly democratic Congress, the
president will have nothing left his admin
istration but to continue to adopt demo-
cratic measures and make the most of
them. The new era is dawning for all
who want to see 1t.

STRANGE THINGS Cone TO PAss.-ln

strange things come to pass, and We have
made considerable progress in the way of
transformations during the past year.
Otherwise We should not, perhaps, have
found the following in an Alabama paper:
"We advise our eolored citizens to keep
a sharp lookout on their whilom friends
at the East and West, for these gentry,
finding that the basis Of total population
has added fifty Southern votes 10 the
democratic side of the. house, now loudly
demand that the colored element be ut
terly eradicated and the white population
alone entitled Misrepresentation. But the
South will never consent to such whole
sale disfrapehisement, and will manfully
do battle for the rights of its citizens
without distinction OF race or color"
The South knows how to protect the
negro, and it has promised to do ii ::
therefore no more hearts need bleed for
the poor African

ABOUT ORGANIZING THE SENATE
Heralgs Washington special says: Sena-
tor Patterson is going to dodge all the
issues involved in his relation to the pres
ident, and on the question of voting for
or against his would be colleague Butler,
by moving for committee of investiga-
ton upon himself az soon as congress
meets and absenting himself from its ses-
sions until the committee reports. While
democrats disclaim any intention to in
trigue for the organization OF the senate, a
plan is said to be ON foot, prompted by
Senator Booth to secure the removal Of
clerk Gorham. which will be demanded as
proper sequence of the overwhelming
defeat of the Sargent-Pase ring in Cali
fornia AS Booth would only be too glad
to act with the democrats in the matter,
and as the senate is so evenly divided,
Gorham's tenure Of office is not regarded
as at all secure,

Gov. FEERY is severely criticised by the
Seattle papers for his refusal to commute the
sentence of Thompson, who was hung at
that place on Friday of last week The
Oregonian also refers to the matter editcri-
ally. 1t says: '.One act of injustice begets
another. When executive clemepcy has
been abused by the pardon OF criminals not
entitled to it, either through political or
other influences that ought not To have

pared for the opposite injustice, and clemen-

crimination, no matter how urgent the just
demand for it. \ weak executive goes from
one of these extremes directly to the other.

eral attorneys made it a speciality to pro-
cure the untyinsef the. marital knot, and

the business so profitable that he acted as

1t was found that nearly all the parties
divorced were non-residents of the terri

2.-The Times st. Paul special says the
democratic state convention met to-day:
The committee on resolutions submitted
majority and minority report. The ma
jority report yielded little to the green
back and labor conventions, whose candl-
date for governor, Banning was nOmInat-
ed. The minority report was stlffiy con-
servative and adamantine on the money
question. The former was finally adopted
with some modification. The first resolu-
tion denounces the frauds and crimes by
which an election of president and vice
president was reversed; the second con-
graduates the country that President K
B. Hayes found it necessary to adopt the
democratic policy of local self government

s: ARE They TO BLAME A good deal of
censure has been bestowed on the people of
Montana for protracting the Indian war by
selling supplies to. the Nez Perccs. 1t is
punishment rather than censure that they
deserve, if the act has been voluntary but
the reader can easily conceive that band of
two or three hundred well-armed hostiles,
passing through sparsely settled neighbor-
hood, need not stop to barter Tor what they
bad the power to take, and it is not at all
improbable that to save their lives and a
wanton destruction Of their property they
were compelled to be accommodating and
complaisant. There would be danger IN
pursuing a different course, ami until all
the facts are known, it is only charitable
that public opinion shorld be suspended.

tions that have been held thus far have
taken pains to say that they believe X
b. Hayes to be radical, These Frotss.,
tations are doubtless necessary i'll view ct
his adoption of the democratic policy :;
but there may be question as to how
far he can go in that direction and remain
d fadical. 1t is coilsoling to know that
he is not yet considered to have crossed
the line, and So far as We are concerned
we hope that he will continue within the
radical fold. A man who stole the presi-
