THE LAW AND THE LOBBY.

The new Constitution of California declares
lobbying felony and makes it the duty of
the Legislature to provide by statute for its
punishment. What material change this
will make in the management of legislative
bodies by corporations, is not easy to de-
termine. The next Legislature of California
will have in its hands the making of the law
which is to provide for the punishment of
bribery and corruption. The instrument
will be framed by the attorney of the Central
Pacific Railroad, and engineered through the
Legislature by the coin of Leland Stanford.
When the law comes to be tested, If it ever
is, there will be found enough defects in its
construction TO render it practically dead
letter, There are stringent laws upon the
statute books of nearly every State in the
Union, relative to bribery, and in most States
the briber and bribed are held equally cul
pable. These laws, however, are never en-
forced, and trials, in cases of Legislature
corruption, are rare. The State of Nevada
has occasion to recollect SEINE bitter exper-
fences in this line, and last Winter the pur-
chase of the miserable cattle, which the
people of the State hnnored by their choice as
representatives of their interests, was open
and notorious. There are class of men
whose only idea of holding trusted positions
ais Senators or Assemblymen, is that when
once installed in their seats they may be
enabled to introduce bills which will require
q food of coin to smother. There were men
in the Legislature last Winter who actually
received brides from Cinnamon, who bought
them off because they feared the introduction
OF bill which would ruin the profits of cheap
laundries and opium dens. That such
shameless prostitution of trust and decency
should exist, is enough to make every resi-
dent Of Nevada blush for his State. Laws
seem inadequate to put stop to such
practices. The only question is, how long
will the people stand it 2

VARIAN VINDICATED.-U. S. District Attor-
ney Varian is receiving un just and nncatled
for censnre from some Of our contemporaries
because of his persecution of R. r. Parkinson
for Illegal voting.
Parkinson has been tried for the offense and
found guilty. The result has proved that Va
rian simply doing his duty. 1t is there
fore idle to talk of persecution. Had |'ran
refused to prosecute such case be would be
fit subject for condemnation. Bat when a
public officer discharges his duty in the prose
sonal bias may be, he is entitled to the sup
port of the press, and of all good citizens.
The effect of such structures as those that
have been passed upon Varian for his conduct
in the Parkinson case, is to lend countenance
to crime, and to discourage the officers of the
law from the execution of their duty.-Go.
Htte.

Dante; the whole of England in the word
Shakespeare

TURKEY has filed petition in bankruptcy
with more liabilities than can be estimated,
and assets amounting to few old rickety

Ottoman Empire. This result has been
brought about by reckless extravaganza on
the part of the government. The rulers ex-
