As Mr.. Hayes Might Have Done.

Representative Dezendorf is waiting for an
opportunity to introduce bill prohibiting
any person who holds public trust or govern
ment officer of any kind from being a member of
any central executive, or any other commit
tee of any political organization; from being
delegate TO any convention of any political
party, and from seeking to control the politi-
cal action of his subordinates. 1t also pro-
hibits any such person from taking part in
any campaign as speaker or canvasser during
the hours for which he is employed by the
government. The penalty for violation of
these provisions is dismissal from Office and
ineligibility to reappointment for five years.

Homesteads, but No Presumption.

The report prepared by Mr. Strait, of Min
nesota, to accompany his bill for repeating all
pre-emption laws explains the opportunities
for and the practices of fraud under the pre-
emption laws, which were once the only ones
under which the public lands could be taken
up for settlement, and recommends a modifi-
cation of the homestead law that would per-
nit the settler to pay for and sell, if he choose
his land after two years and a half of actual
occupation, leaving the main feature of the
law, which gives him his land after five years
actual residence upon it, unchanged.

SHALL Massey be our next Con

SHALL Massey be our next Con-
gresham from the Slate at large, Is
question which seems 10 have inter-
ested, 10 no small,' degree, both the
Demo1raiic and Coalition parties. That
Massey is entitled to the gratitude oil
the people Of the State for his manly
stand against Malone and bossism'
there is no doubt. For months, he
checked The partzan Legislature which
was threatening the people. The
coalIiionists tell US that hassey's con-
Suct was prompted by impure motives.
Such may or may not have been the
case. Politicians are generally judged
by their acts and rot by the motives
that prompted tier official conduct
Massey has done good work for the
people, IN Lis opposition 10 Mahoneism'
He is hate i al despised by the coali-
tionists. It's natural. that such should
be the case, Tor he to great degree is
responsible for the defeat Of their pei
.cheme which would have left but two
democratic congressman In Suite that
has over 100000 Democratic voters
Let Massey run. If he defeat Ma
hone coalii;onist, he will 90 good
work. 1t is not 10 be expected that
they will put up better man than
Massey, and The man they select viii
be necessarily compelled to vote will
the Republicans, il elected, while Mas
sew would vote With the Democrats
We could scarcely expect Massey to
be a first-class man, fer whatever hi;
good qualities may have been, his pO'
)itical associations, for the last few
vears have not been such as to I'M
prove his political character. He has
shown an independence that is to be
commanded. When Mahone's party
lash could quell every effort at personal
marty independence, Massey stood al
most alone aud defed the little boss
and bis party lash as we'll as his party
tactics. He is now engaged in exposing
IN. tricks of tie coalitionists, and SC
long as be acts well, he is deserving
Of nraise and not Of censure.-
Let him continue in bis good work
Let him expose all tie partizan legiSl"'
ton of lie coalilCnists. Let HIM sho"
TO The people the evils OF bossisu, es-
pecially that kind which has been Illus
,rsted by the conduct If Malone. Give
him a clear field and If the people pre-
fer Linn 10 a republican as their repres'
tatiye. let them have him. He VIII
REPRESENT the people Of the Stale more
faithfully than any man put up by Or
der of General Malone. Between
Massey and Mahoneite the people
will make q choice. Had Massey beer
easily purchased, the coalilionisl'
would have found some way to have
bought him. They cannot buy him, they
cannot persuade him into their camp
and all that is left them, is the poo
privilege Of abusing the IN on that bu

people as the best auditor the State
ever had.
