Both housc2 OF the sta.e lcgisla-
-ture have agreed to adjourn finally
on Wednesday June 9th, 1t ap-
pears extremely doubtful whether
the legislation cf a public character
SO much needed and so confidently
expected by the people, will be
reached. Not that there was not
ample time to digest and pass all
the reform measures SO necessary
for the public welfare, but because
the time was frittered away useless
ly in debate unreasonably lengthy
and verbose,
Yet it would be unfair to censurc
all the members indiscriminately
and equally. There are many good
men in each house who honestly and
conscientiously did their duty, and
on the partisan stalwart majority Of
the sanute the sins Of omission of the
present session principally rest.

Pattison Pleases the People
n the tittshurg Chronicle. Rep.

From the Fittsturg Chronicle, Rep.
Certain editors iii this state rashly at
tackled Governor Pattison before they
had any material to work on. Their
object was so manifest that the people
discovered the motive before the editors
discovered they had practically ex-
hausted their ammunition in random
firing. Then when it occurred TO them
that they were making a serious mis-
take, they turned their attention to
other matters. In the meantime, pub
lie attention having been directed to
Governor Pattiso@, he was subjected to
a degree Of scrutiny rare even in these
days. That he has not lost any thing
in consequence goes without saying.
Whether Governor Pattison pleases the
politicians Or not we will not persume
to say, nor are we concerned on that
score. The main point with us is, how
do the people regard the new governor?
The politicians can take care Of them
selves.

A Business Reform Governor.

From the Pittsburg evening Telegraph rep9
Notwithstanding the condemnation
of Mr.. Mcclure there is good reason to
believe that Governor Pdttison stands
We'll with tho democratic masses in
this state. The ''reformn republicans
are dissatisi Il because the sp0ilS were
not fairly divided, but with large
mass Of democrats and Independent re-
publican thinkers the watch which the
governor is keeping over legislation,
the care with which, so far, the consti-
tutional rights of the state and the peo-
pie are protected, and the strictly bust
ness manner in which the departments
are administered, have impressed them
with the sincerity OF the administration
however much it may have failed as a
political machine. Mr.. McClnre and
Mr.. Smith speak for themselves and
for any considerable body of citiZens.
The special reforms in which The two
gentlemen are personally interested
may have failed under Governor Patti
son, but the true reform which the peo
pie asked for and, we believe, would
have also. been received had General
Beaver been chosen, is being carried
out by means os 4 business rather than
a political administration.

THE NEW COMMISSIONER.

1t is now believed that the present
legislature must adjourn without clear
ing the calen dar of some of the leading
bills upon it, An extra session, it is
thought, will be called by Governor
Pattison. The governor is said to have
thought upon the matter and it is
believed may cali the assembly together
in January next if not Immediately af-
ter the approaching adjournmeut,in the
event of a failure to pass legislative
apportioument bill. The only hope of
a settlement of the apportionment dif-
ference lies in a conference committee,
but the statement was made that the
republicans of the senate are manoeu-
yering for delay by a system we'll
known to themselves, and will prOba-
bly, rush upon their fate by their policy
of keeping back action on apportion-
ment as long as possible. If a special
session should be called it may be made
to include q revision of the revenue
laws.
