NEW YORK DAILY TRIBUNE WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 80 1880

| But is 1t so absurd Consider the
situation What naturally would be the
condition of a Democratic State Com
mittee after the reading Of q com
munication of such length and depth 7
Why, there are men now In Albany
willing to bet two to one that the entire
Committee, without being specially requested
to do it, would be found at the close of the
reading Z" in silent and mOtionless medita-
tion," from which it would take at least
fifteen minutes to rouse them.
Here the Socratic method begins, but with
this original feature. that each member OF the
Committee should engage in the work Of in
trOsDecti0n, and CONSIDER within himself"
series Of conundrums which are set forth 10y
our contemporary, and which we should say,
judging from an outsiders point Of view, are
we'll worth their while to wrestle with. This
puts every member Of the Committee somewhat
on his mettle, to ask himself, in addition to
the inquiries set down for him, other questions
of the hardest kind. Space does not permit
us to quote in full the cross-examina-
ton proposed. 1t is, perhaps, enough to
say that the drift of the questioning is
in the direction of discovering what's the
matter, and who did 1t. Inc spirit or enter
prise that dictates the search cannot be too
highly praised. 1t is to be regretted that this
advice as to the reading OF Mr.. OCOnor's
letter, the Fifteen minutes silent and notion
"less meditation thereon" and the subse-
quent introspoctiOn and cross-examination
came so late that the Committee could
hardly work themselves up to it in time
for tho meeting last night. Let US hope,
however, that the next meeting of the Com
mittee will be conducted on the plan pro-
posed. And let there be public exhibition
of il. If there Is anything in this world that
a patient public wants above all things - see
it is Fifteen minutes "-and no one would
mind it much if it was made fifteen years
of "sllent and mOtionless meditation" on the
part of this or any other Democratic Commit
tee, or, in fact, of the whole party.

1t is alleged that several theatrical managers are
preparing pratica versions Of The Pirates of PEN
zance y; that the text has been stolen; that the
music has been either surreptitiOusly copied else
counterfeited: and that in shore time the play will
be produced in defiance of the author and composer.
We do not know upon what authority these state
ments resr. and we hope they not true. Such an
act would not only be defiance of the author and
composer, but defiance of respectable public oDin-
ion. rhe piracy of musical and dramatic works is,
unfortunately. nothing new; but there would BE- a
special agQravation Of the offence under the peculiar
circumstances OF the present case and it is to be
hoped that the managers in question will be vigcr-
ousy prosecuted By the law and frowned upon by
the community. II people viii refuse to patronize
the pirated Pirates the scheme Of robbery viii be
abandoned and our country will be spared morti-
fication Messrs. Gilbert and Sullivan are already
organizing travelling companies of their own, and
Dlaygoers in other cities Will soon have ample OPP
portunity to enjov the piece with clear conscience.

The final word in the Maine controversy has
been spoken. The Supreme Court, while de-
Ginning to admit the legal right of the mock
Legislature to call for an opinion, neverthe-
less, in view Of the public exigoncy, answers
its questions explicitly and with overwhelm-
ing force. 1t is distinctly declared that the
Fusion Legislature is not end never was the
legal Legislature of the State, and it Is quite
as positively declared that the Republican
body is the legal Legislature. The opinion of
the Court is not long. bus it states the grounds
for the decision with such plainness that none
can fail to understand them and few can fail
to be convinced. 1t breathes also that high
and patriotic spirit which has won for this
Court the respect of men Of both parties, at
least outside of the State of Maine. Familiar
as the whole question has now become, there
is much IN this opinion which Is worthy of
attention. 1t will be remembered, for exam
pie, that the Governor and Council claimed that
their action IN issuing certificates to cOunted-in
members could not be revoked, even to comply
with the decision Of tho Court. The Court
now notices this claim only so far as to re-
buke those officers for having "disregarded
the decision and for having "omitted to re-
Evoke the summonses illegally issued" The
Fusion Legislature is declared to be Illegal
because it never had a quorum, unless tho
men are counted who, the Court had already
shown. had no right to seats. In considering
the additional question whether there is n legal
Legislature at all in the State, several interest
ing points are discussed. The fact is noticed
that the Republicans delayed organizing until
the 18th of January, hoping to obtain their
rights in some way. and the Court says, with
peculiar emphasis, that they were "forced" into
the course they took. The conclusion is reached
that whatever irregularities there were in the
formation of the Republican Legislature,
there were "no essential defects" Brushing
aside pettifogging claim OF irregulaVty, the
Court says that "the voice of the people is not
on that account to be stihed. nor the true
Government to fail to be maintained That
is the sentiment of all honest men, and 1t
Is evident that even the Maine ringleaders
are ashamed that they should have defied 1t
so long.

under consideration and the House of Rep
resentatives passed yesterday bill reseivna
from sale or ether disposition the lands on
which the "Big Trees" of California stand.
The reservation is to be dedicated to tie
people, and set apart as public park.
Major Smith. of Maine, jumps at the chance
the Supreme Court gives him to retire lie
SAYS he recognizes the fact that the decision
of the Court has ended the controversy,
especially as 1t was rendered upon Fusionlst
statement of the case, and there is no chance
to charge that it was cTamped within the
limits of statement biased against them.
Major Smith is "tired of playing Governor"
and is going home. Most of the Fusion
lists legally elected to the Legislature will,
il is said, take their seats at once. But there
is one exception to the rule OF SUBMISSION
Mr.. Sawyer, who doubtless holds the stolen
Great Seal, declares that he still considers
himself Secretary of State. Mr.. Sawyer is the
prize idiot of the State of Maine, and should
be exhibited at the county fairs.
The Court of Appeals, in overriding the
order made last Fail by the Extraordinary
General Term of the Supreme Court in the
Nichols case, declares that Judge Westbrook
did not, in proposing to review the proceed
ings of the Mayor, exceed bis authority. The
doctrine is thus enunciated by the highest
Court of the State that the removal of an
officer concerning whom the Charter provides
that he shall be removed only for cause and
"after opportunity to be heard" is a judicial
proceeding. The power conferred upon the
Mayor is not, says the opinion, AN arbitrary
lone, to be exercised at pleasure, but only
"upon just and reasonable grounds, and then
"not until after notice to the per-
"son charged" The act is therefore
subject to review by writ of certiorari issued
by the Supreme Court. The personal cOnse-
ouences of the decision, which may include
the expulsion of Commissioner MacLean and
the reinstatement of Commissioner Nichols,
are of little importance compared with the
bearing it will have upon future appointments
and removals of the same rank. One result
will be to insure fixed tenure of Office for
incumDents against whom no positive charges
can be brought. Another will be, neces-
sary to increase greatly the responsibility Of
the appointing power.
