THE PROCEEDINGS IN DETAIL.
THE SENATE.


Final Passage of the Bill Changing the Laws
Prescribing Drainage System.
The Senate, at the morning session yesterday,
sesumed the the reconsideration OF the appellate
Sonrt bill is. 1871 providing for five judges, the
question being on the motion MIR. Fowlers] to
recommit with instruction to reduce the num-
or of judges to three pending at the adjourn
hent On Monday evening.
Mr.. Magee opposed the motion, and contended
that five judges for such court as the one pro-
posed are none too many. Upon general princi
pies all agree there should be another court. If
this bin passes it viii be eminently satisfactory
30 the bar of the State. while the Supreme Court
Commissioners have not been, because an inter
mediate court is imperatively demanded
Mr.. Oyerstreet-I think three judges will be
Sufficient. and they can do more business than
the commission of five judges has done, as their
work has to GO underline revision of the Supreme
Court judges. have no doubt but that in o few
years the number of Supreme Court judges will
De increased TO seven, and if this appellate
court is made to consist Of three we will have
ten judges. A court with three judges would be
as efficient as court of five judges in the char
ncter Of cases that viii come before this ap-
palate court.
Mr. Fowler Insist three judges are suffi-
eient think it was stretch of constitutional
power to create the Supreme Court commission.
The poor man who works for dollar daw will
lind it expensive to contribute towards the ex-
pense of these courts No appellate court will
ever be on plane with the Supreme Court even
With equal talent IL is the experience of legis-
aation that when an Office 10 created it cannot be
dispensed with, ! will not vote for any court

WHAT THE DEMOCRACY NEEDS MOST.
Fairfield journal (Dem.)
And why should not the young men of
Maine ''get into the habit of thinking that
all of the intelligence and culture in the State
belong to the Republican party?" Have the
leaders of the Democratic party in this State
shown any remarkable intelligence during
the past few years? What the Democratic
party needs most is brains. When the friends
of successful candidates for important offices
in this State openly boast that Cleveland is
fixed, and the party organization is drifting
like rudderless vessel at sea, on account of
the rule or ruin policy Of the leaders, and the
federal patronage of the State is parceled
out by known railroad lobbyists, what en-
couragment is there for a newspaper in
starving and sweating to bolster up such a
rotten condition of things? Is it very en-
couraging to the young men who are about
to become voters TO know that the important
offices in this State have been given to old
worn out chronic office-seekers, who held
office under Buchanan? Where do the
young men come in for usefulness? Is it in
furnishing funds for a campaign that loafers
may be rewarded with the best offices for
contributing nothing?

The Marshal undoubtedly did right in ask
ing the Board of Aldermen toreyoke the Ii
cense of John w Sullivan and the Board was
right in doing SO. A license ought never to
have been granted to Sullivan. The statute
says licenses shall be Granted to persons of
good moral character" Mr.. Sullivan is not
person of that description. But why did
not the Marshal ask for the revocation Of
Cords l.. Longeys license? He says he
believes Longley sells liquor and that his
place is resorted to by lewd women. These
were the grounds on which he asked the re-
vocation of Sullivan's license. Why should
they be more potent in Sulliyan's case than
in Longley's?
1t appears that the vote in Atlanta showed
a majority against prohibition, but the vote
of the suburban district was more than suf-
ficient to overcome it. The ant-Prehibi-
tionists are already preparing to contest the
result in the courts on the ground that the
election was not held legally. We don't
know what the machinery is for enforcing the
law in Georgia, but it has got to be much
more effective than any yet devised in Maine
if Atlanta goes dry after July, when the law
takes effect 1t is a fact that cannot be
gainsaid that never yet in any of the large
cities of Maine has there been for any con-
siderable length of time liquor drouth. As
DIR. Warren says, there are no avowed liquor
saloons such as one finds in New York and
Boston, but as the Bridgton News says,
there are plenty of places tolerably easy of
access where liquor is sold and drunk. The
prohibitory law has accomplished much,
but not so much as its friends anticipated
nor so much as some of its friends claim.
The death Of Vice President Hendricks
has invested the presidency Of the Senate
with more than usual Importance. The sug-
gestion is made in some quarters that Dem
ocrat should be elected, because the Vice
President was a Democrat. As the mil
lennium is a long way off yet, there is no
reason to believe that this suggestion will be
acted upon. The Republicans have a major
ity of the Senate, and they will elect Re
publican president pro tempore. What Re-
publican shall it be is the only practical
question. Three are so far prominently
mentioned Senator Edmunds, Senator Lo-
gam and Senator Sherman. The friends of
Senator Logan argue that inasmuch as he
was the Republican candidate for Vice Pres
dent, it would be in accordance with the fit
ness IF things to elect him president pro tenn
pore at the present juncture. There is some
thing in the argument, although it is by no
means a conclusive one. The chances are
that the man elected will fill no more respon-
Sible position than was filed bV the late Vice
President, but he may become the executive
head of the nation for year, a possibility
which cannot be lost sight of in making the
selection. The wishes Of Republicans gen
orally should be consulted, therefore, to a
larger extent than is usual in choosing
president of the Senate.
