THE LEGISLATURE.

The record of the Legislature which rejected
the proposal for biennial sessions was itself
strong argument for that PLAN And this is by
no means a special condemnation of the Leg
islature of 1878. 1t was far from being worse
than the average of its predecessors, and was a
great Improvement upon many of them. But, i'll q
rapid survey of its work, so much seems TO
have been done that ought to have been left
undone, or ought to have been better done !;
and so much was left undOne that might well
heye been accomplished, that the people of
the State will be forced to wonder whether if
fewer legislative sessions would put fewer
blundcrS upon the statute-bOoks and
bring less disturbance and yexatIOus agi-
tation into the government of our great
cities, we might not endure with plilOsophlc
camness the delay that would occur now and
then in the rightng of wrong. The record
of the Legislature which has just dispersed is
in many respects good, but so long "a the
present system of ruling our cities from AL
bany continues, the work of all Legislatures
must be, in greater or less degree, unsatis-
factory. Too often the good intentions go to pave
the floor of the legislative hall the bad inten-
tons get into the statute-bOOlls there is
ceaseless turmoil and strife, and interest after
interest is attacked or medded with. The
cities of the State, at least. would be better
off with fewer sessions They could more
easily suffer little neglect than be subjected
to constant pillage.
The most conspicuous fact of the session
TO Newly oIkers-is an illustration Of the UNI
Willingness Of the Legislature to release the
cities of the State from their bondage. Neither
by discussion of the Charter Commissions
amendments to the Constitution, nor
by the presentation Of any other
carefully digested scheme of municipal
reform, did the Legislature of 1873 manifest
the slightest desire to grant the right OF
self-government to the City of New-York.
1t i. true that bill was forced through
which will compel a reduction OF two
million dollars IN our next lax Levy DuV
commendable as this measure is, 1t Is tenn
porary one, at best, capable of being reversed
next year or whenever the politicians choose.
1t is reform by special legislation. which has
decidedly less vitality, as a rule, than fraud
by special legislation. 1t is the fact that the
system still continues of governing this

degree unfair, unjust and disgraceful to the
country.
This performance will prove a colossal blum
der. One-eyed Democrats see It, Whatever
bad opinion they may have of Messrs. Hayes
Sherman, Noyes, and others accused, Dehocraes
themselves do not believe that these men are
fools. But they must be extraordinary ana
phenomenal fools, If there is in existence
single scrap of proof, or can be produced
single word of truthful evidence, connecting
them or any Of them with Illegal and fraudu-
lent acts in the Presidential contest In all
human probability, there cannot be manutac-
turcd, even by bribery or forgery, evidence
enough to create even decent suspicion against
them But an inquiry so base in object ana
method, if it breaks down, utterly ruins those
who undertake it.
The Democrats meant to place the RepuOh-
can party on trial. Instead, they have put
themselves in the dock. They are on trial,
not for some fraud said to have been COM
mitted by some individual, but for something
more broadly affecting the public confidence.
All the country knows that some frauds were
perpetrated by partisans on both sides, III the
latest rs in every other sharply contested eiec-
ton. But the country wants tO hHO" ""''iOA
the Democratic party is so far patriotic, decent
and just, that power can safely be intristFd 10
it. That question the conduct Of The party as
n whole is answering. In trying 20 bIacken It's
opponents, the Democratic party is showing It's
utter want of patriotism, it's reckless disregard
of public welfare, its contempt for decency
or Justice, and its entire want OF com
mon sense. As natural consequence, ITS
behavior has instantly rallied, united ana
compacted the Republican vote in Congress.
All personal or factions differences are cast
aside when it is seen how knaVlsh and dcs-
per,te are the men who rule in the councils
of Democracy and hope to rGle the country.
Precisely the same effect viii be produced with
Republican voters throughout the country.
Some have been gulled by Democratic profess
sions Of conservatism and reform. They are
permitted once more to see Democracy IN all
the naked defOrmity of it's shameless PARTISAN
ship and revolutionary spirit and the effect
will be to arouse and compact Republican
voters. The answer to the Democratic fraudu-
lent investigation will come next Fall.

city by pIecemeal legislation that takes
the good taste of the Public Burdens bill out
of our mouths. This, with the Bonded lndeDt-
cdness bill, and the bin sheariDg on the per-
quisites of the Coroners and the Commissioner
Of Jurors with perhaps one or two MINOR
measures of the same sort, is all that the Leg
islature of 1873 has done to relieve the taXpS-
ers of New-YOrk City. Ii must be SAID
at the Same time, that the absolute
collapse of the Charter COmmisson's amend
ments, so far az favorable action by this Legs
! lature was concerned, was due as much 10 the
lack of discretion in their advocates as to any
other cause. The Legislature OF 1877 was
tod that 1T could pass them with
good conscience, because the first vote
was really informal, and the Legis-
laturc of 1873 could be left to say whether
they should be submitted to the people; ana
the Legislature of 1873 was told that 1t would
only be fair" to give the people the chance
to say whether they wanted these amend
mcnts. AS a consequence, they were ap-
! proved by the Legislature OF 1917 before
the public mind had been fairly educated UP
to them. and n sudden revalsiOn set in, from
which il is doubtful whether they can eve.
recover. No scheme has yet been devised III
place of them, and next Winter is likely to
| find the matter as far from solution as
! ever In any event, the biggest half OF the
! Board of Aldermen will sit in Albany until
1891.
| Many of tie other important acts and omIs-
sions of our Lawmakers have been crowded
! into the last few days Of the session. and
are still fresh in readers minds All at
tempts to enact a new Excise Law have
been sturliIy resisted by the better ele-
mcnt OF both houses and sooner or later irus-
trated. No reapportiOnment OF the State
has been made-a failure much to be re-
GREETED but plainly due to the Democratic
minority which refused to concur Ia the re-
port of the Asscmbly's own Conference Commit
tee. The new code has been sadly muddled, one
part being left upon the statute-bO0k, the other
being buried in the Governors waste basket.
All attempts to Obstruct the successful
reorganization OF the prisons on paying
basis have been defeated. and sincere en-
dcavor to introduce business methods into the
MANAGEMENT of the canals also has failed only
because OF the Governors veto. IL there
has been no STRENGTHENING law, there has
heen some excellent savings bank legislation.
And it ahould not be forgotten that the Bland
Silver bill was denounced.
The character Of the Legislature of 1878
has been high, if all ITS work has not been
successful Not even the hquog-dcalcr5 could
buy it up, and lts precincts have been COM
parativ,ly free from the Odor Of jobs. As a
Republican Legislature, it has done its party
less good than it might have done, and less
damage also. The Republican party Is. indeed,
not entirely harmonious, hut the Democracy
seems torn with internal feuds.
