WHAT is known as the 'iifty cent

from the market. The bill as it passed
the house and was taken up in the
senate, amended and returned to The
house for its concurrence in the
amendments should the house con-

approve the bill-all of his expressions
and all his views known To the public
hIvor the belleft that he will approve IL
and the public domain will no longer

GAZETTE has never been an alarnl.t
ON the subject of the extravagant
waste of the public domain. Ii I'm,
regarded nifty cents an acre rs good
price, in y majority of cases, for the
land, and 1t was certainly. infinitely
better that it should be sold and he-
come rcvenue-producing taxable -
than TO lie idle foran indefinite period.
IL may some day be worth more money
than now. Doubtless il will, and the
same may be said and as truthfully
when the price has appreciated to five
dollars per acre. At their present val
uation they will bring more money
thanis needed for the purpose for which
they have been set apart the payment
Of thepnblic debt, and the permane
school fund. There is danger lest the
legislature shall fail to enact any new
law to take the place Of the one which
has been suspended, and confusion and
chaos will be the result.

THE Chicago 7T8es feels terribly
outraged that CULLoN was elected to
the senatorship instead Of its man
OGLEsDY. Ii saysMr. CULL9a owes his
elevation primarily to systematic
but degrading and demoraIlzing use of
the state patronage at his bestowaI.
By the arts of AN ofiice-broker. forming
a chapter in the history Of practical
politics in Illinois which it is hoped
be may live TO read with some sense
Of shame, he rises to the seat which a
DAVIS and a DOUGLAS adorned.
1t Is part of the curious history Of
the senatorial contest thus ended, that
ten not overiy-gifted Republicans
wrote themselves down as DooBErRY
desired TO be written. The ten de-
serve to be remembered as the only
Legislators of Illinois, who upon one
day declared, with their hand upon
their heart, that were they to vote for
the election Of the governor 10 another
office they would commit moral per-
jury, and proceeded upon the next 50
10 perure themselves.
Had they possessed the courage Of
their convictions, 1t was in their
power to choose senator about whose
eligibility there could he no doubt; but.
swearing in the most solemn way that
they would never perjure themselves
for ali the CULLoMs in the land, they
fastened under the goad OF the party
lash 80 to perjure themselves. Every
one OF them gave the governor his
vote The marvel OF the situation is
not that these persons surrendered to
( the caucus, but that, knowing them
~@lves To be poltroons, they should
have posed for time as men OF prin-
cipie. The members of this dismal
decimal fraction might as well seek the
seclusion " their homes. They cannot

WE met recently that genial and
well posted old journalist, Col. j. T.,
Harness, late managing editor of the
southern Journal u agriculture, ST.
Louis. He Is now resident OF Colorado
City, and has large sheep interests in

in the''golden fleece business, il is safe
TO conclude that the business Is a good
one, and that they mean business. We
