A H1eH-HANDBD CONSPIRACY.

The Governor, Lieutenant Governor and
the Republican members of the Senate have
entered into conspiracy to defeat legisla.
ton. For two days legislation has been
completely blocked in the Senate by the az.
bitrary, outrageous and we might say infa
nous rulingsof the President, the Lieutenant
Governor. He has refused to recognize
Democrats-he has refused to grant sp-
peals from his unjust decisions, but hs:
played the role OF dictator with high hand
No such proceedings have ever been wit
messed in a legislative body as have taken
place in the Senate in the last twenty-foul
hours, and all for the purpose of obstructing
the will of the people. People of Indiana
think of Governor and Lieutenant Governor
Blasting upon the street corners that a bill
enacted by the lsw-making power Of
the State should never become a law.
Think of Lieutenant Governor Boosting
that bill passed by the House and pending
in the Senate should never be passed by the
latter body.
Will the people of Indiana tolerate such
high-handed conduct and suffer it to 60 un-
rebuked? We say to these men, now that
the responsibility OF special session is
upon them, tina: they have INSTRUCTED legis-
lstion until they have forced the
Democrats of the two Houses, in order to
maintain their Constitutional rights, to re-
sort to the last remedy within their power
The Republican party must submit to the
will of the majority, or they must assume
the responsibility of keeping the Legisla
ture in session until they do respect the
rights of the people, and submit to the right
of q majority To rula

by the House.
The reply is: 1t takes two-thirds of the
Senate to convict.
Granted. but the proceedings would have
attracted the attention OF the State to the
infamous and revolutionary action of the
Lieutenant Governor. He would have been
convicted by the people. HIS successors
would never have followed in his footsteps.
The Republican newspapers are misrepre-
sentiDg the facts in the case. The impeach-
ment would have brought them forth to the
disgrace and discontinue of Mr. Hanna
and the Republican Senators who aided him
in his infamous work.

Ii there Is no law TO reach a Lieutenant
Governor who swears in advance that bill
ahnH not pass the Senate, aud then, as pre-
siding oficeT, interferes IN a revolutionary
and supplementary manner to retard Its
passage, then it is high time to make q law,
and If Mr. Hanna can not be reached then
the breed at least may be stopped. The civil
isza0n of the century has decided that a
majority must rule. Hence there Is no fui-
Tier use for that type of bulldczsr that the
present Lieutenant Governor represents.

LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR HANNA.

LIEU TENANT GOVE3NOR HANNA.
1t would afford the Sentinel pleasure to
speak of the presiding officer of the Senate
in language becoming his high position, but
his course of late has been so discreditable
truth to obscure his dishonorable record
No man of average regard for fair dealing can
contemplate Governor Hanna's late career
without blushing. He has shown himself
to be not only partisan, but paltry parti-
san. Governor llama mas recently Deen en-
gagged in making history. Our latest sdvices
are 10 the effect that he is still engaged in
the business, and we are persuaded that the
more he makes the more infamous will his
tory and author appear. Governor Hanna
presides over the deliberations of the Senate
of Indiana. In that position he is as
deaf to justice as an unborn pig,
and as stolid and as Indifferent to just in
dignation and scathing criticism as Q bronze
jscksss. He cares no more for the rules of
the Senate than Texas bull does for WIRE
fence He has made up his mind to defeat
the metropolitan police bill by the exercise

requires. He assumes that the majority
OF the Senate have no rights which
he is under any obligations to
respect. He plays autocrat with sdroit-
ness and with an effrontery born of pusillan-
unity. The metropolitan police bill has
passed the Senate, but under the rascally
rulings of Governor Hanna and his conven-
lent lickspittIes the purpose is to defeat it
by delays and by fegitious filibustenng On
Tuesday night, after a prolonged session,
an agreement was made that the bill
should be taken up yesterday and be
disposed Of The spirit of that agreement
was that the legislation on the bill should
take It's course. But it turns out that the
Republicans intended nothing OF the kind,
a lurking lie was in their professions of fair
dealing, and yesterday their cloven devil
foot was promptly put forward, and Governor
Hanna was party to the execrable business.
He has been told to his face that he had VIC

determined TO break up this practice. In order
that the clerks should not be s. completely Ia the

should be paid TO the employees. One OF the
