DISHEPUTABLE SCRAMBLING FOR
POSITION.

TO one who watches the peculiari-
ties of the people of this great
American nation, certain acts of
politicians during the past week have
served to fill his mind with shame.
While the remains of the lamented
Carpenter are yet awaiting sepulture
ut Forest Home, we behold the dis
graceful rush for the SenatorShip and
papers are filed with reported plans
and accounts of political schemes to
secure the place so painfully made
vacant. It is an insult to the memory
If the great man cut down so sud-
denly and who made record 50
proud for himself and so honorable
to the constituency now scrambling
for the succession But these
structures apply 10y no means alone to
the people of our neighboring State.
They are universally applicable, and
we invariably see politicians who are
discouraged ut the incipient workings
of civil service watching for the
possible encroachments of disease
upon men in office. In the case
mentioned, we are informed through
the public prints that IA certain candi.
date has believed that the Senator
WAS not long for earth, and months
ago laid his plans for the successor
ship. If such are the facts it is not
only singing disgrace to the man,
but it is also a reflection upon the
American people.
There is something wrong in our
system that needs remedying. The
pay. and emolumentS of our officers
are too large, or the people overlook
ability and select with reference
more to policy and pledges than to
worth and reputation. At one time
in the history of our government
such a disgraceful scramble for pelf
and power would have promptly met
the rebuke il deserves; once honesty
and consummate ability were sought
out and recognized and self-forced
candidates. were not seen upon the
surface of the political arena. But
those halcyon days seem passed, and
even the hectic flush upon an officials
cOuntenance is watched and the as
piring politician lays his plans accord
ingly. The FREE PRESS does not
expect to achieve any particular
reform in this direction, but it does
deem it duty to speak out and
condemn the disgraceful practice and
add word that may have its weight
upon the disreputable means adopted
by the sordd ambition of men seek.
ing place and power beyond the calls
and requests of the people.

THg LEGISLATURES.


The last week Of the session has not
been different from former ones an
immense amount Of important bust
ness being crowded into the last few
days. The bond bill occupied the
usual time, and the result is of course
in doubt. The bill providing for Il
settlement passed the Senate Friday,
and the final action Of the House was
not known at the time of going TO
press.
On Saturday the following appoint.

settle the veXed bond question that
has SO long confronted the people OF
Minnesota. 1t proposes to pay fifty
per cent. of the amount claimed on
the old bonds. and for this object the
Supreme Judges are to adjudicate
upon the validity of these ancient
obligations. and il said tribunal shall
decide that it is necessary to submit
the question of payment to the peo-
pie, the bill further provides for such
submission ut the next general cleo
ton, whether or not new bonds shall
be issued in lieu of the oft claimed
repudiated ones. The new bonds are
to run thirty years ut five per cent.

Accompanying the bill is another
creating Il sinking fund from the
proceeds of the sale of the 100000

payment of the new bonds. This
