The Closing Scenes of Congress.

1O ~AOSAI6 SNO~SS "a ~SA~S@ SSSH
So far as known the closing scenes of the
late Congress were not essentially different
from those of former years. One or two
of the Metropolitan Journals took up the
subject and made unfavorable comments,
and thereupon there is general cackle
among the whole brood of followers.
The same kind of remarks. the same
declarations of the inutility of Congress,
the same amount of witty attempts to
disparage and belittIe its work have ap-
peared in the columns of the press of this
country with periodic regularity, and
whichever party might be in the ascendeney
the opposition always took occasion to have
a fling at the closing scenes. When a
representative i5 Congress gets drunk,i is
simply a drunk. The drunk is not re
deemed in quality or increased in respect
ability because it is democrat or repub-
lican who gets into the shameful position of
being SO tight that he don't know the
speaker from the sergeant at arms, or a
brother member of Congress from an out
slider. Closing scenes" occur in all their
ofensiveness with uniform regularity and
with little difference in degree whether
the House is democratic or republican.
Differences of political opinions do not
clothe one party with all the virtues and
the other with all the vices, aud drunken
republican is no more respectable than a
drunken democrat, and vice versa.

California.

The result of the late election in Cali
fornia is not yet definitely known, but
enough has come to hand to render it
certain that if the commune or socialists
have not actually carried the state they
are but little IN the minority. The cleo
ton was for delegates to convention to
amend the state constitution. The old
democratic and republican parties do not
seem to have BOILED votes enough to bear
any presentable proportion. In San Fran
cisco out of a vote of q little over $1,000
the kearneyltes obtained IL, 900, the non
partizans $500, the democrats and re-
publicans together about 1000, a few
scattering.
According to these returns, and the
general reports from other parts Of the
state, it is doubtful whether the Kearney-
ties have not obtained a majority in the
convention. The phrase 'Kearneyites"
is new one and needs explanation. The
workingmen's party in San Francisco is
under the lead of man named Dennis
Kearney, and it is from him that the name
Kearneyites has arisen. Kearney him>
self is an open and violent communist, a
shrieker and bowler of the loudest and
most approved fashion. The strong feeling
against the Chinese in California has given
the Workingman's party a strong lever,
and If they have carried the convention
the Chinese question will become danger.
Gus issue The workingmen are undoubt,
eddy determined to get rid Of the Mongohans
by fair means or foul, and the result il
likely to be movement for their forcible
removal, and future exclusion. The work
ingmen have also declared as part o.
their creed, on which Kearneyites anC
others less ultra are generally agreed, thu
policy of subordinating all corporations
, and public franchises to the will of The
state as expressed through the legislature
the limiting of land ownership, and tht
breaking up of land monopolies; and GER
tain measures in regard to taxation by
which they propose to render it equa
among all classes.
No doubt the election just held may b.
J regarded as one of the most importan
contests ever made on the Pacific coast
The extravagant expressions and threat
3 of the communists of the Kearney strip,
in San Francisco have been sufficient t,
awaken alarm among even the cool ant
C calculating, and their near approach t.
positive success will bring the sense o
danger tclose home to fair minded mel

or more-She evidently overdid her part.
Judge Shellabarger frequently bit his lip
and grated bis teeth while her examination
was proceeding, and when Butler had fin
