Traitors to Their Party.

This is an exciting week in the U.
s. Senate. Senators Conover, of Flo
nda, and Patterson, of South Carolina
who were elected as Republicans, and
have always acted as such, for reasons
best known to themselves have gone
over to the Democracy and are now
voting with that side to seat Butler, of
Hamburg massacre notority, as Senator
from South Carolina. The parties are
30 evenly divided in the Senate that
the balance of power is held by Como
yer and Patterson, and it is not unlike
ly that their perfdy may result in Civ
ing the Democrats majority in the
Senate. Senator Sharon, of Nevada,
Is at home without a pair, which is
very unfortunate in the present crisis
of affairs. He was telegrapbed for but
answered that his private business is
such as to prevent his coming to
Washington at present. At the time
of writing this, no conclusion has been
Ecached in Buffers case. On Monday
the Committee on Privileges and Flee
tions submitted report in favor OF
seating Kellogg, of Louisiana, but OBJ
lection being made, it went over until
Tuesday, when it came up as privil-
eyed question, and Republicans sought
to give 1t precedence over the case OF
Butler. Conover and Patterson have
both promised to vote to seat Kellogg,
and should the question of the latter's
admission be first disposed of, there is
no doubt that Kellogg would be voted
In. But the Democrats will struggle
to have Buffers case first acted upon,
and there is no doubt that if it is be
will be seated and thus render more
difficult the success Of Kellogg. On
all preliminary questions thus tar,
Conover and Patterson have voted with
the Democrats, and we have little
doubt that they will continue to do SO
to the end, and that the result of it all
will be the admission of Butler and the
rejection of Kellogg. The Democrats
will then have it In their power to seat
another Democrat (Eustis) from Louis
iana, and will have an absolute working
majority in the Senate, giving them
control of both branches of Congress.
Inquiry naturally arises as to the
cause of this detection on the part of
Conover and Patterson. Both under
take to excuse themselves and to de-
fend their action, but the general YER
dict of the people is and will be that
they are governed by corrupt motives.
Conover is said to be angry with the
President over the matter Of appoint
ments in his state; and Patterson who
is under Indictment in South Carolina
for bribery in securing his election to
the Senate, it is believed has the pro-
mise of immunity, or at least favors at
the hands Of Democrats, which shall
compensate him for his treachery to
the party to which he owes his allegi-
ance. Conover and Patterson both
have addressed the Senate on the
pending question and declared their
intention to still act with the Republic
an party upon all political questions,
except in the Butler contest; but the
presumption is that they will transfer
themselves, bag and baggage, to the
other side and hereafter work with the
Democracy.

We see it suggested that perhaps the
best way to prevent the repeal of the
assumption act before 1879 is to let
every man in Congress say all he wants
to on the subject.

GENERAL GRANTS SCOTCH ANCEs
ToRs.-The London Echo has discov-
cred that not only does General Grant
belong to the Scottish Clan Grant, but
bears striking resemblance to lone OF
the greatest of Judges, Sir William
Grant, master of Rolls. whose fame
was so great that Lord Brougham in
cludcd the great master OF Judicial
eIoquence IN his last work, the
Sketches of British Statesman D
He was born in l775, and, left an or
phan, was educated by an uncle at 81
gin "the chief town of the Clan Grant
He was admitted to the bar, emigrated
to Canada, where he was Attorney
General, returned to London, was
chosen to represent Shaftesbury in
Parliment, in 1901 was made Solicitor
General and Master of Rolls, aud for
seventeen years was regarded as "a
perfect model of judicial excellence .
He was noted for his brevity, aad the
Echo suggests that General Grant may
have Inherited this trait from his illus
trious ancestor The General is said
to resemble very much in appearan ce
Sir William, whose portrait was paint
ed by Sir Thomas Lawrence, and now
hangs in the court which he has SC
long adorned. Sir William died in
1882.
Both official and unofficial advices
fro Mexico show that President Diaz
is DESTROYS of not only treating the
United States with respect, but Of pre-
serving peace, and with this view only
has recently ordered a large force to
the Texan and Mexican border. 1t
does not appear, on inquiry at the
War Department, that General Ord
has, as published, applied for addition
al force to meet any anticipated coils
ion with the Mexican troops.

THE Madison Democrat, the Mil
waukee Sentinel, and several other
papers, have alluded to the absence OF
Hon. l.. B. Caswell from his seat in
Congress when the vote was taken on
the repeal Of the Resumption Act
They probably are not aware that Mr..
Caswell was called home to the bedside
of his mother who has been and is now
so seriously i'll that her lie is despaired
of. For their information we would
state further that before leaving Wash
ington, Mr.. Caswell paired off on the
Resumption Bill with Mr.. Evans, of
Indiana, who would have voted for it
Had MIR. Caswell been present he
would have voted no Upon all poll

Morgan, of Missouri, SO that there is NO
justification for the charge, expressed
or implied, that Mr.. Caswell "dod ged. "

Correspondence Of The True Northsrner.
During the last three days OF last week, Prof.
Ingersoll attended the sale Of thoroughbred
large number OF cattle OF all breeds Norman
Percheron horses, and Polan- Chna hogs, with
all other kinds OF stock.
The State Board OF Agriculture was in
session last week during which the bids for
building the new Dormitory we're opened and
the contract given to the lowest bidder, Mr..
Williams Of Grand Rapids, for $2O,1Ss. The
architect visited Grand Rapids to see some of
his work and found it satisfactory. The work
commenced Monday morning and it is expected
that rooms enough will be finished by Septem
Der to allow the Freshmen class to enter then
and thus change the time OF commencing and
closing the year from February and November
as it is thought il would be advantageous. II
is expected that more will present themselves
for admission than at any one time before.
Any young man who is industrious and judi
cious in the use Of money can lay up enough
money from now until September to carry HIM
through the fall term. The expense or that
term will vary with the boy. from S25 to $75,
but IN no case need cost over $40. Then by
teaching q winter term Of school-which the
vacation at that time allows-enough money
can be earned so that the young man can go
through next year. and thus complete the
course on his own resources. All do not do
this, nor Is 1t advisable If other resources can
be had, for the value OF the course Is much
impaired by dong extra work at the expense
of time that should be employed in getting
something besides Text Book information,
which is usually Of little value unless harmoni-
ously mixed with that OF more general
character. A good library is open TO oil, free
Of cost, literary societies, secret and open,
have weekly meetings which are instructive
and interesting and numerous other volun-
tary exercises. whereby students can get in
formation in q special direction, are given each
week. I speak Of these now, that any who
read the NoRrHRRNER may know what they can
do for themselves toward getting an education |;
aud hope that it will be no longer said that
other counties with less wealth and population
than ours furnish five times as many students,
The first vacation commences May 20, and
ends June 9th. Some questions sent me ask
ing about the value OF plaster aud ashes on
crops will undertake to give, as taught hero,
in my next com nunication. G.. Z. B.
