Of time. He was gracious enough not
to be particular what kind OF a berth
it was so long as the salary was

ture met in joint convention at $50 this
morning, and upon roll-call forty.nine Sens-
tors and 14S Representatives answered. A
motion WAS made 10 have Weaver seated,
but Speaker Haines would not re cognize it;
and he said he had nothing to 60 upon but
the oral declaration of the honorable gentle
men, and he could take no cognizance.
After long wrangle, during which different
efforts were made to take vote for Senator,
before one was taken, however, Republican
members adjourned to the Senate Chamber
leaving the Speaker and House alone. A.
question then arose as to whether it was the
Joint Assembly or regular House session.
This question was argued at length for the
purpose Of killing time till II o'clock, so
that the joint session would again convene.
Sittjg Is not present, nor is Riggs.
The remainder of the morning up to noon
was occupied by speech against time by
LiDegar, during which several attempts were
made to adjourn. Finally. just prior 10
noon, Fuller undertook to put tbs motion
himself. when the Speaker interfered aud
declared the motion carried.
In accordance with an agreement made be.
tween the two steering committees no vote
was cast for Senator to-day, and the Joint
Assembly adjourned till next Tuesday.
Upon adjournment the House was declared
in session, and Weaver, Republican. from
the Thirty fourth District was sworn il.

A REQUIREMENT OF JUSTICE.

There Is no good reason whatever. in the inter
ests of efficient and economical admins ration.
Why any OF the Offices except the few that have to
90 with the distinctive policy. of the party in
power. should be filled by members of one party
rather than by those of another. or why the po-
litical convictions preferences of appointees
should be considered a. New York Times.
There Is principle involved in this ques.
ton which requires that the offices should
be filled by members of one party rather
than by those Of another" This principle
Is justice, pure and simple. The country
owes il to members of the Democratic party
that its affairs are not today under corrupt
Republican management. The administra.
ton owes to members of the Democratic
party its existence. Mr.. Cleveland was not
nominated by Republicans. but by Demo
Gratis. BE was elected not by Republican,
but by Democratic ballots. His cause was
championed and maintained through
