The Next Senate

Rlddleberger as Republicans, Republicans 40,

lucky, Louisiana, Maryland and Ohio have
already elected Democrats to succeed Demo-
Gratis, and probably Alabama, Arkansas,
Florida, Missouri, North Carolina and South
Carolina will do the same, although there is
a possibility of gaining Republicans in Flor
ida and North Carolina. From Colorado,

West Virginia.

The hope of carrying West Virginia for
the Republicans is encouraged by recent de-
velopments of Democratic folly in the State
government. The State administration has
| been guilty of much extravaganza by reason
OF which serious deficit it the treasury be-
came imminent. Thereupon the Governor
AND the State Auditor resorted to a peculiar
expedient. In 1881 the Democratic legsla-
ture passed and the present Governor ap-
proved law exemptiDg from taxation GER
tam agricultural products. The constitu-
tionaity of the law has been in doubt but
the exemptions have been made.
Lately the Governor and Auditor General
foreseeing a shortage ordered assessors not
to regard the exemption. In some counties
the assessors respected the order, in others
they disregarded it, and as a consequence
the taxation is unequal and a great discon-
tent Is aroused. The Democratic county
conventions and the State convention de-
| nounced the action of the Governor and Au-
ditor, and the latter who vas candidate
for the nomination for Governor was COM
PEELED by the party bosses to withdraw his
name and sacrifice his ambition. This he
did last week, and it was thought that the
party was saved.
But Auditor Miller does not intend to be
sacrificed wi hout struggle. He went
straight from the convention, to the Su-
p1eme Court OF Appeals and sued for writ
OF mandamus to compel the assessors of one
OF the counties to obey the Governors order
and ignore the statute of 1881. 1t is said
that maj Jrity of the justices approved of
the Governors order before 1t was issued,
and that the Auditors application will be
granted. As soon as it is granted for one
county it will of course be applicable to all
the lest, inValidatiDg the tax levy alrea "
made, and creating any amount of trouble
aud dissatisfaction with Democratic admin
istration. The indignation of the people is
intense, and there is good reason to expect
political revolution next Fall. West Vir-
ginia is an October State," like Ohio, and
arevolution in the State election would GER
tainly mean that Blaine would carry it in

The last brilliant idea of Democratic
Craftsmanship is developed in the action of
the Democratic members of Mr.. Randalrs
appropriation committee proposing a law
forbidding the contribution by anyone in
the service of the national government of
money or other valuable consideration to
any political purpose. The intelligel ce
which does not see the difference between
compelling man to buy oysters, whether he
wants them or not, and prohibiting him
from buying oysters with his own money
when he does want them, is entirely charac-
terlstic OF The Democratic reformer. 1t is as
brilliant as that other proposition, of which
we have had local assertion, that an official
cannot be removed for cause unless he can
be proved guilty Of felony.

of the attitude of Republicans who, because

talk about doing something which will help

prohibitory law goes into effect on that date.
But defect has been discovered in the law
which may vtiate it. The intention was to
forbid all officials to grant licences Tor the
sale of liquor; but by some oversight, or
trick, county commissioners were not in
cluded in the list of officers forbidden to is
sue licences and they are already granting
licences to wholesale dealers. The law will
