Push Things.


Tn the state senate yesterday there was
an interesting debate between Senator
Stewart and Senator Gordon upon the
attitude of their respective parties as to
the extra session and the apportionment
of the state. Both gentlemen were Wig
orous and eloquent of speech, as both
can be. II the question which they
handled is to be discussed probably
nobody can better state it for their re-
spective parties than these two senator's.
But they were beating threshed straw
Yesterday. The people have become
familiar with the issue at Harrisburg /;
no votes are made on either side by these
daily discussions and we do not see that
the public is enlightened nor the popular
judgment changed by them. Therefore
they are useless.
The simple fact is that the Republi
cans delayed and obstructed an appor'
tionment at the regular session, because
they want to maintain the present ger,
rymander, which has proved advanta-
geous to them, despite its villainous
features. The governor called the
Legislature into extra session to do its
unperformed constitutional duty. The
Republicans persist in their defiant
neglect of that duty and have reiterated
their determination to not do it. The
Democrats have offered everything that
is fair and far more, and it has all been
rejected. More they cannot concede
without ignominious and unjustifiable
surrender which will violate the consti
tuition and betray their constituents
OF course they do not contemplate this
The Democrats are only justified in
keeping the Legislature in session in the
prospect that something will be done by
the opposition to facilitate an appor
tionment. The Democrats themselves
can do nothing more in that direction
They have tried and exhausted every
parliamentary and constitutional pro
cess. If they see signs of weakening in
the Republican line, which are not Oh
servable at longer range, we are glad tt
know it. They are not discernible tt
their constituents and the general public
However that may be they are not justi
fable in wasting any time by frequent
adjournments. II anything is to be &C
complished at Harrisburg the worl
must he pressed to conclusion. Thu
Democrats should stay there and stay il
session all the time. There should b
sessions every day of the week and ever.
working hour of the day. Three o
four sessions week for an hour or tw
each are waste of time and money. Th
people will not stand it. There is TO
much ten dollar a. day business about il
Push things.
