to who will or should receive the
honor. Humor says that it will be
either Hon. T. o. Howe, Ex-Chief
Justice Dixon, or Hon J. B. Casso-
DIV. Much can be said in favor OF
each, and the selection Of either will
be generally accepted as q good ap'
pointment. Without assuming to
Judge clearly as to their merits on
bat a slight personal acquaintance
with either gentleman named, and OF
course wholly without knowledge as
to their respective qualifications,
we can only express the opinion
that MIR. Cassody's appointment
promises mos. general satisfaction,
because the greater number CT peo-
pie whom we have heard expressions
from on the subject seem to desire
it.
The ponderous Republican major
ity in the Legislature unsettles all
calculations as to the result of the
Senatorial contest. Keyes and Saw
yer are each reported as confidently
claiming to have majority. One
of them must be mistaken; and
probably both of them are. Gentle
men well informed on such matters
say that neither of the gentlemen
contesting has assurance of ma
jority; that there is considerable
number of the legislators elect IN
pledged, and not likely to favor
either. Should this element be sutli
Gent to hold the balance of power
between Keyes and Sawyer; the
chance of third man being chosen
is about as good as any. Hon. c. g.
Williams, Ex-Gov. Washburn, J. B.
Cassidy, our Congressman, Hazel
ton, and Gov. Smith, are all regard
ed as available and possible dark
horses.
To the uninitiated it may seem
that speculation at this time as to
the organization of the Legislature
is little "previous,' but the fact
that applications for the place are
already flooding the mails, is we'll
known in political circles. Bloss and
Eldred are said to be again seeking
the Chief Clerkships of the Senate
and House, with confidence Of sue
cess. This would indicate that these
gentlemen think the record made by
them last winter for reckless eXtray-
agance and discreditable manage
ment of their departments is forgot
ten or else they have determined
to do better and want chance to
prove that they eau. As they have
each served two terms, and the last
was worse than the first, we submit
that new men may be tried with
safety. ". II. Is.

JUDGE DAVID S. TERRY, the
slayer of Senator David G. Brode-
rick, over twenty-five years ago,
who was candidate on the Cali
fornia Democratic electoral ticket
at the recent election, is without
doubt defeated, no matter what
the general result in the State may
be otherwise. Califoruiaus have
long memories, and they have not
yet forgotten the murderous taking
off of the gifted Broderich, as is
shown 10y the extensive scratch
ing" to which they subjected the
b,oody-handed Terry.

what Shall The Democracy Do?

The great question with the De-
mocracy is, Shall the party disband:
Barnum's side-show in New York is
mere by-play. ITO be or rot to be,
that's the question Thus far the
subject has not been agitated very
much, and only a few have given
expression to their views upon It,.
he discussion has fairly begun,
however, within the Democratic
ranks.
Mr.. English has expressed an
/ opinion on the subject. He is op-
posed to disbauding. He gives as
bis reason for believing that luck
will yet turn their way, that we cam
not always have good crops in this
country. Strange as it may seem,
that is the position he takes. When
Colonel IngersoI pronounced the
potato bug friend to Democracy,
it sounded like a sally of wit, rather
than a statement of tact, but it seems
that there was no exaggeratlon
about it. Mr. English reasons that
hard times will serve as recruiting
officer FOR the Democracy. What a
confession! \ party which stands
like wrecker upon the shore OF
time, praying for and preying upon
a calamity, is disgrace 10 the ma
ton. The English idea of politics
serves to explain the incapacity of
the party in which he is leader to
understand public opinion. This
country has no sympathy with
wreckers, and despises all their
methods, ideas and habits.
There is at least one Democratic
newspaper which advises dissolu
ton. The Democrat, of Madison,
Wis, has always been rankly parta.
san; but it has had enough of it
The Democrat says the jig is up.
The party carried only two North
ern States, New Jersey and Nevada,
and the majorities in both cases very
small. la ten Northern States not
a Democratic Congressman has been
elected, and of $50 Northern mem
bers of the House, only thirtyate
are Democrats. 1t says the "mis-
sion of its party has been accom-
plished.
The Democrat is in hopes that the
party will disband in time to alb
solve the thirty Democratic men,
bers of the Wisconsin Legislature
from their present party allegiance,
in order that they may take part in
the Republican caucus for United
States Senator from that State but
this is highly improbable, 1t takes
time to accomplish such a work Of
undoing. That the plan should be
unequivocally Endorsed by the lead
lug organ of the party in 50 large 8
State as Wisconsin is deeply signii-
cant and Chicoyo Jouy-
nal.
