Democrats will not commit political
harri-kdrri by helping Cameron out Of
the sore dilemma in which he now finds
himself. The Democrats can, of course,
elect Grow by casting their votes for
him. VIII they do it ? We don't know ;
but we do know, or at least think we
know, that in no other possible way can
they so effectually shatteT and crush the
hated Cameron machine. How can
Cameron, and all that the name implies
in the politics of this State, be so COM
pleteIy unhorsed and his bad influence
checkmated and ultimately destroyed,
than by the election Of the man to en-
compass whose defeat has been the apple
of his eye-his supreme effort and that
of his obedient slaves-ever since the
November election ? There may be some
other way Of breaking the Cameron
ring, which all Democrats and all hon
est Republicans profess to have so much
at heart, but we confess we cannot see
it. We must patiently await the result.

not eACCCuILS
ten dollars per diem for time necessa-
rily spent after the expiration Of the one
hundred days. ProU,ded, hotCeUer, that
such time shall not exceed 6fty days at
any one session, etc. We repeat. that
until this act of Assembly is changed all
sessions will last one hundred and fifty
days, or very nearly that length Of time,
because men go to the Legislature to
make money and will never fail to take
good care Cnat the proviso limiting the
ten dollars per dayto fifty days beyond one
hundred is literally enforced. The plain
and certain remedy against the crying
evil and frightful expense of long ses-
sions is to repeal the act Of 1874, and
simply provide that the pay of the mem
bers shall be one thousand dollars (if
that amount is thought to be not too
much) for the session, leaving out all
limitations upon the timeit may occupy.
II this was done the session would come
to a close at the end of one hundred
days with all the important business
completed, and the opportunity to make
$500 by sitting fifty days beyond one
hundred would be taken away. 1t all
comes to this-give the members, as the
act of 1874 gives them, the power of ex-
tending the session to one hundred and
fifty days, at ten dollars per day, and
they will avail themselves of it but pay
/ them fixed surn for the session ,cjfbO5u

! tion of one hundred days, or, in an emer-
gency, few days beyond that, the as
