ALBANY, Jan. 1G.-Political patronage has
occupied great deal of the attention OF the members of
the present Legislature. In reference to it Senator
said lately: 1t IL all the crippled and wounded
OF last Falls political campaign were put in am
balances and on stretcLers brought TO Albany
and dumped the floor OF the Senate for US to
take care Of" The Senate has already made large
numbcr o. appointments, and until to-day there not
the least resistance from either Republican Demo
cratic medbers TO the creation OF supeu0us Offices It's
patience was exhausted. however. to-day resolution
was introduced by Senator Lippitt for tho appoint
mcnt of assistant OF the Sergeant-atarms. to
take charge Of the wrapping department Upon
hearing tho resolution read. Senator Wagstah
sted 20 Senator Lipp that he amend it by insert
the Of persons for assistants OF all the officials
OF the Scnatethc clerks and messengers included This
aroused laugh, and thereupon vote was taken on the
resolution. ana it lost by vote OF II nays to l3
ayes; Il votes in the affirmative being required to pass
a resolution voting away money.
The Assembly spent most OF the morning over the same
question Of patronage. II may be well 60 state that III
neither Senate Assembly is it treated as party
question. IL is purely economical one, ana merely
calls upon members for little sefenal The division
for or against economy The question came up In the
Assembly the resolution. which there have been
several conflicts already. appointing two men to take
OF express packages as they come and go, ana
messenger for the service. Mr. Erasus Brooks
leader Of the economists, at offered resolution d
rccting the Speaker to designate fcDm the several en-
poy6s the House such force may he required FOR
caring FOR OF the express matter. Another Democrat
Mr. Floyd Jones' followed but he opposed the adoption
of the resolution and argued that special force was
necessary for the work. The previous year the express
companies had been paid 81 900 for the express
packages they carried for tie Legislature, and the sum
paid 10 the persons whom 10 proposed to employ
would not amount to over 81 800.
MI Brook, replied. He argued that the Legislature
ough to show the people Of the state that public officers
were easer 10 economic. The little thing II was pro-
posed 10 do might grow into great abuse. He was not
80 much opposing the passage OF the present rcso

extra appointments which would surely follow If il
was passed There had been gradual Increase for

believe, however theEe will be but ono sentiment

domination. when it is known that accusations
so grave rs those now announced, are officially
published as the result of an investigation
where the accuser seems to have brought
whatever charges ho pleased, and to haye
sustained them in whatever way he chose,
while the accused, until the conclusion which con-
demned him was reached. was sedulousy kept in
