THE ILLINOIS SENATORSMEP

A Chicago dispatch says the
death of Logan wonderfully CON-
plicates the Senatorial situation.
In joint session, when a United
States Senator is to be voted for,
there is nothing left now for the
Republicans to do except to re-
frain from voting. But this has
been the situation right along.
There must be 103 votes cast in all
for the election of United States
Senator. for it takes 103 to make a
constitutional quorum. The death
of Logan blocks the game for
about a month. Notice must be
given by the County Clerk of
Whiteside county to the Governor
of the vacancy, and then the Gov
ernor must order special election.
The County Clerk must then order
special election. Notice Of this
special election must then. under
another statute, be posted for not
not less than twenty days. Judge
Logan's seat cannot be filled under
three weeks. Logan's district is
overwhelmingly Republican and
has always returned Republican
Senator, yet with the United States
Senatorship dependent upon this
special election, it will be likely to
prove a most remarkable contest
It will perhaps be the most re-
markable struggle ever recorded.
It will be the fercest contest ever
known for SO small territory. I'll

No mar went into the 18th ses-
sion with better promise for max
ing q name for himself than Pike
Of Churchill. His experience in
the proceeding session gave him a
wider range Of parliamentary ex-
perience than his associates, and
he soon became recognized as a
leader in the House. His position
however, seemed to spoil him and
he presently became saturated
with the idea that he could juggle
with his fellow-members and that
his spsi dirit was all that was nec-
essary to establish the status of
any measure. 1t soon became
glaringly apparent that he was in
dulging in bluffs, and there was
such vein of incincerity running
through his apparent earnestness,
that his influence was materially
reduced. In the fight on the Mill
tary Bill he championed the course
of the Unions and won their graft
tude by his energetic fight against
the bill. When tae bill was to be
passed over the Governor veto,
he was selected to lead the fight
for the Unions and make a speech
against the bill. Up to the mo-
ment that he roSe to his feet, and
began to speak for the bill, those
who had hung their confidence on
him did not dream thathe had desert
ed to the other camp. He had been
In the secret caucuses of the Storey
county delegation, he had their
full confidence knew all their
plans, and played the role Of an
enthusiast on the question.
Under these circumstances it is
not to be wondered at that the hon
est gorge Of Turrittin rose at such
perfdv and he denounced him as
d liar" on the floor of the
House.
The APPEAL believes that a po-
litical promise is as sacred as when
gentlemen pass their word of honor
upon matters of business. 1t
should be at least so considered
and is so considered among honor
able politicians.
Pike had given his word in this
matter: had agreed tospeak against
the bill, and was actually trusted
with the leadership of the fight.
He outragiously broke his promise
and in five minutes forfeited all
the respect which people held for
hin. Even the friends of the bill
rave no word of apology for his ac-
ton.
When the meanest soldier in
the ranks deserts to the enemy he
is followed by the contempt of his
but the deserticn of a
leader at the moment of engage
nent is something so unexpected
hat nature seems to have made no
provision by which the mind can
measure the act.
The merits or demer Of the
dill cut No figure whatever in such
! course. It was pure and sim
pie breach of faith, and nine-tenths
# the bitterness, trouble and vex
ltion in politics arises from the
act that there are in this State a
lass of men active in politics, who
rave no respect for verbal promises.
