THE Ross appointed Governor of New Mex
leo has political history worth knowing.
Mr.. Ross was one of the seven Republican
Senators who voted against conviction on
the impeachment of President Johnson, his
colleagues being Fessenden of Maine, Tram
bull OF Illinois Grimes of Iowa, Henderson
of Missouri, Fowler Of Tennessee and Van
Winckle Of Wess Virginia. There we're then
hfty-four Senators, twelve OF whom were
Democrats, and the vote OF Senator Ross
destroyed the two-thirds necessary to con.
vict, the vote standing 80 TO ID. Since that
period he has suffered political persecution
and ostrscism in every conceivable form, and
been compelled to earn his livelihood by
working as journeyman printer. He was
originally appointed a Senator to succeed
Senator Lane, deceased, aud afterward
elected by the Kansas Legislature for four
years CT Lanes unexpired term. As soon as
Mr.. Ross left the Senate his political life
seemed dead, and, seeing no future for him,
he went back 10 his old trade OF type-setting.
The Republican party deserted him simply
because he would not engage in the dirty
work of deposipg and dIsgrscipg President
Johnson. 1t is q long lane that has no
turning.

In concluding a recent article on "0flen.

says: But II is not fair or just TO begin

sincerity and honesty OF purpose. What he
Is doing 10 of undoubted and great impor.
lance. The rule he is laying down is wise
and recessary, OF course he must enforce 1t
uron Democrats and Republicans alike. IL
he does honestly enforce 1t he will do very
important service to the country. lie seems
to us to be q man very likely 10 enforce 1t,
and no honest citizen OF either party should
cast doubt on his intentions. The Republi-
can bosses who are so hungry to get back
into the pleasant berths from which the pei.
pie lately expelled them must watch
and wait. IL they discover that
the President is insincere that
will be great hit for them, but IL they
begin now TO abuse him that will only turn
the public sympathy toward him. The
President of the United States has right to
fair dealings, and fair and even indulgeni
judgment from all the people"

Finally, IN dire evaporation, he demanded in his

smile barely tingeing her protest, the lady turned
to the lawyer of her friends, Dick Thompson and
asked with a seeming innocence that ruined all
