THE KELLOGG CASE.

It appears from the report of the proceed
ings In the United States Senate yesterday
that number OF Democratic Senators, nota-
bly, Senators Garland, Thurman, Bayard,
Lamar and Maxey are In favor OF permitting
the Kellogg-Spofford case to go over until
some more convenient season, or, In other
words, that they do not think 1t a matter of
much consequence whether Louisiana shall
continue to be denied her legitimate repre-
sentation In the Senate or not. There seems
to be a fear In the minds OF these gentlemen
lest the doing of palpable act of justice to
this State should give the Radical party an
advantage in the presidential campaign, and
the dread of exciting the ire of the Radicals
deters them from ousting from his seat q
man who was never legally elected to the
Senate, and Of seating Mr.. Spofford, whose
claim to the seat they acknowledge to be
valid. This is not q dignified or
lofty attitude for such men to occupy,
and their position In this matter
Is in bald and unpleasant contrast to that as
sumed by Senators Jonas. Hill. Salisbury.
Vance and Vest. Ii this man Kellogg shall
be permitted to retain his seat In spite of the
damaging testimony adduced during the in
vestigation of his case, In defiance OF the find
ing and recommendations Of the majority OF
the committee, and despite all the shameful
and notorious facts connected with his cleo
ton by fraudulent Legislature, then will
his presence in the Senate become burning
disgrace, and the contempt felt for him by
the right-thinking people of the country of
all sections will to some extent embrace those
who vote for his retention. Louisiana has
submitted for a long time to the Injustice OF
having but one representative In the Senate.
when she is entitled to two but the damage
to her, resulting from the failure to eject Kel-
logg. will be light compared to the disgrace
that will attach to the Senate Itself for it's
weakened and unmanly course In falling to
unseat a corrupt and unworthy member for
fear of losing some political strength.
The Senate should be strong enough and
just enough to do right Gin scorn of conse-
quence," and we are not prepared to believe
that any OF the Senators who have inclined
to postpone the matter from political motives
will finally vote to consummate such a wrong
upon this State, or to infiict SO great an In
jury upon themselves.

Davis. a Congressman from

Horace Davis, Congressman from Cali
fornia, has very statesman-like scheme, by
which he hopes to iniure the Chinese on the
Pacific slope, II not to drive them out the
country altogether. He proposes to carry
out Bearney's '.must-go' scheme by so taxing
Chinese products as to prevent any trade be
tween this country and China. To this end
he has offered q bill In Congress, laying the
heaviest possible dues on oil, etc. This piece Of
hoodlum political economy, however, 1t has
been discovered, willnot work as we'll as Davis
believes 1t will. The United States now sends
large amount of shirtlpgs, drills and similar
goods to China. and this trade Is growing
every day. Mr.. Davis s bill would utterly an
initiate 1t without affecting In the least the
Chinese OF California, who would certainly
get their opium, rice. ETC., the same as usual.
The California politicians are apparently
stark mad on the Chinese question.
