THE Illinois Legislature has come to
an apparent dead lock on the Senatori-
al question. The Legislature is divided
politically, Republicans, 1Ol Democrats,
9S ; Independents, 3. General Logan is
the Republican caucus nominee, but it
seems he cannot secure the Independents.
who, however, declare they will not vote
for any man who supported Tiden, four
OF the five being Of Republican proclivi
ties We confess we were in hopes that
Logan would be reelected. Logan was
a Democrat of the oldcn time, a native
OF Southern State. When the rebellion
broke out he, with others, went to Rich
mond and consulted with some of the
leading spirits of the Confederacy. Find
ing that no compromise was possible, be
returned to Washington and from that
hour devoted his services to his country.
Against the wishes of his kindred who.
of Southern birth were also Southern
sympathlzers, he entered the army and
continued in service until the rebellion
was subdued. Since then he has been in
the national Congress and his voice and
acts gave no uncertain sound when put
forth in support of Republican princi-
pies. The country cannot afford to lose
the services of such men as Logan, and
we trust that the people of Illinois will
continue him in the Senate.

FITZGERALD AND KLosE. - Parson
Fltzgerald's suit for libel against Klose
resulted in verdict for the plaintiff
The language upon which the action was
based was uttered just before the October
election at which Fitzgerald was can
didate for Superintendent of Public In
struction, and accused him of having
taken a bribe in the interest of an East.
ern book firm. From the close business
relations which had existed between the
two, the accusation obtained great cred
ence, and was no doubt the prime cause
of Fitzgerald's defeat. We are glad that
Mr.. Fitzgerald, knowing the charge to
be false, has enforced Klose to a partial
atonement. There is too much of a dis
position to traduce every man who as
pires TO official position, and the truth is
not always II necessary ingredient of
deiamer's story, While the acts cf a
pub lic man should always be held Just
subject for criticism, it is full time that

DRIFTED AsHoRE.-On Friday last,
as Mr.. McLoud was coming down the
beach from Trinidad, he noticed por-
tion of the hull Of vessel on the beach.

inaton, he found it to be the wreck of a

hatch, and on the inside of the ribbon or
rim of the hatch was marked the tom
mage So So 100 tons. A portion of the
deck was burned, the timbers and knees
looked as if the vessel had been built but
a short time There is story connected
with this remnant of beautiful vessel,
that perhaps will never be told, whether
the vessel was cast ashore on the beach
by the meTcess wind and wave, whether
a stray spark had ignted the timbers,
and the officers and the crew wore foced
to succumb to the fery-element Moth
