ONE wrong does not Justify another
in retaliation-that is freely admitted,
and ifthere be any wrong doing in the
seating of Democratic contestants Ia the
house OF representatives. we are as ready
to condemn 1t as any one. But il any
positive proof of injustice in either the
California Colorado or Massachusetts
cases exists, it has not been proven. In
all OF them, doubts affecting either claim
ant were shown up, and good grounds
existed for presentable case by both.
There has been NO overriding of law
and justice as the party press has assert
ed. Do these iault~fnders, however, re-
member the course of the Republican
majority when the house was largely
Republican few years ago? Not the
least show for Democratic contestant
in those days. No matter what his maj.
GRITTY or how strong his case, lie was
summarily disposed of, as a matter Of
course. The last men to find fault with
the action of the present house in the
matter Of seating claimants are those
who quietly accepted the partisan action
of the Republicans some years ago.
