A DIscoURAGING PREDlcr1og

The Topeka Capital, in commenting
upon our new Democratic governor,
gives expression TO the following gloomy
forebodings, which we trust and believe
will prove unfounded:
at would not be true to say that we
regard the prospect as pleasant one.
We see no room to anticipate thai Mr..
Click will turn out to be a blessing in
disguise. He isa sincere and consist
ent Democrat, and hence at coDstitu-
tional variance Ewith the policies and
sentiments, the rule of faith and the
spirit of progress, 70 which Kansas
owes her splendid place among the
states. To be faithful to his own con-
victions, he must aulagoniZe the whole
theory upon which our affairs have been
heretofore conducted, and through
which we have grown and prospered
and fashioned all our history. He is
simply protest hurled against all that
has been done in Kansas for liberty, for
humanity, and for the common glory Of
the country. We speak of him entirely
in political sense, of course and in
that respect he may count upon our
making the Capital as troublesome to
him as, we can. In every other aspect
of the case, official and PERSONAL he has
our best wishes, and will receive our
hearty cooperation in the performance
of his duties, and in the maintenance OF
the dignity and cleanliness Of the eX-
allied station which, through an irony of
fortune, he has been chosen TO occupy
for the ensuing two years.
The expectation may reasonably be
entertained that the new governor will
omit no opportunity 10 advance the in
terests of the Democratic party, 10 create
discussions in the Republican ranks, and
TO prepare the way for repetition OF
the occurrence that placed him IN his
present position. That is ms political
right and privilege, and he would be
false TO himself and his followers il he
did otherwise. At the same time ii is
equally the right and privilege Of the
Republican legislature to resist and
thwart ali such attempts-not by cap
tons and unreasonable opposition
where agreement is possible and honor
able and TO the advantage of the state,
but by preserving a steady front and
resolutely checking whatever seems
doubtful or dangerous, or intended
merely for partisan effect. tits not nee
essary, nor would i, be either wise or
justifiable, to provoke conflict with
Mr.. Click over matters in which his
views and preferences are pre- perry en-
titled to consideration; nor on the Other
hand, would it be either sensible or pru
dent to concede him any undue or qoes-
iionable prerogative merely to avoid a
conflict The road 70 harmony hes in
the direction OF strict mutual regard
Tor the precedents and civilities which
are above ordinary politics, and Yet easy
of abuse tor political purposes"

Commonwealth We learn that it has
been agreed upon by the Democratic
members of the Legislature to hold a
caucus TO nominate a candidate for

him by their votes from first TO last.
Their accession to power in Kansas is
bringing wisdom to them. They show by
this that they think they have party,
which is something new for them in this
stale. However much we may, as Re-

4 strange political event took place
Al the capital of Kansas at noon Monday
the Inauguration nf the first Democratic
governor ofthe state. The slee,io6 Of !
Alr Click was a sarnfiser5 The people !
OF Kansas. aDa has ,t.rseted ns,ional e.

words for Mr. Click since the com
mencement of the campaign which cul-
minated in his taking the oath Of Office
as chief magistrate Of the state, aud il
proposes 10 treat him fairly aud give
him that degree of respect which is his
due. II wishes his. administration the
highest degree of success. 1t IS not TOO
much to say that the affairs of this state
have been we'll maEsgel by the Repub-
licans during the twenty years of its
existence, and the new governor will be
expected 10 keep uP the highest stand
ard which it has occupied financially,
intellectually and progressively. The
circumstances which surround the new
governor are more trying than those
with which any OF the seven gentlemen
who have preceded him in this high
office have had 10 deal With, and ii is
nothing more than fair that his acts
should be judged by spirit of liberalily
and leniency. He cannot deal with the
duties of his Office as if surrounded by
legislature and corps of state officers
of his political faith. Much could be
done 10 hinder the proper running o
the machinery OF the state by dis
play of narrow parilzanism on the par
