Record of the Session.

A the present session Of Congress
dra ws to close review of the work
performed by it may be allowed. The
session has been a long one and at in
tervals somewhat exciting, but 1t has
not been profligate one. The bills
that attracted most universal attention
failed in several instances, but the
credit of the session was fairly
maintained in the fact that few bad
bills were passed and very consider
able number of good ones we're success
fully pressed through the House.
In brief speed, on Monday evening
Mr.. Randall summarized the work OF
the session in admirable form. "We
have returned to the public domain
millions of acres of the public lands
taken by insatiate corporations" said
the ex-speaker. ave have entered
upon the building of new navy he
added, and finally capped the climax
of achievement by the statement that
"we have passed every bill that we
have been asked to pass having for its
purpose the lettering of the condition
of the laboring people. We have not
in single instance passed any bill in
favor of monopolies."
A session with such record cannot
reflect discredit on the majority that
guided it. 1t is a record that no mem
Der of the Democratic party need be
ashamed Of OF course the failure to
reduce the tax burdens of the people
is to be regretted, but that is sin OF
omission and less reprehensible than
one of commission. Taking the record
of the session just closing and giving
it careful and intelligent scrutiny there
is nothing that will bring shame to the
face of those concerned in it.-E.c.

Black on The State Campaign.
THE LIEurrNANT GOVERNOR SURE THAT
THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEES WILL
WIN.

Harrisburg Dispatch TO the Times.
"You will find the Democratic party
said Lieutenant Governor Black to an
interviewer, ''united on all state issues,
and beg you TO observe that 1t is a
state canvass upon which we are enter
ing. The convention will lie harmon
ious, because there will be no differen.
ccs of opinion upon principles about
which to divide. There will be the
usual open contest for nomination, be-
cause, unlike the Republicans, with us
the people make their own nominations.
Perfect agreement beforehand is hard
ly possible, but when they are made
the nominations will repres sent the pre-
vailing sentiment of the party, duly
ascertained, and they will be sustained
by every Democrat in the state"
"Do you think there is wide spread
belief in the party that it will be victor
ious?'
"Yes, there is a very strong belief
abroad in the Democratic ranks that
we can carry the state this year. You
will find this pervading moderate Re-
publicans, only less extensively than it
does the Democracy
"What will be the issue upon which
the party will conduct its campaign ?"
"Ask that question of any Democrat
and he will give you the same answer
that any and every other Democrat
gives-Democratic doctrines do not
change with the change of the wind.
The conversation will no doubt declare,
with no lack of seasonable emphasis, in
favor of state regulation of carrying
companies, in favor of redressing the
many Just grievances of the manual in.
dustries and in unequivocal condemn
alton of sumptuary laws. presume il
will take these positions because. they
are Democratic and the party never
took any other ground, or supported
men who did"
"What about the nominees :"
"The nominees Why they mus,
necessarily be men who represent those
principles, otherwise they would moi
command the Democratic VOTE
"You believe that the party will be
successful this fall, do you not 2"
"Yes, do verify believe not only in
the possibility, but the very great prob.
ability of success in November. Such
success would not be merely partisan
victory. 1t would imply only the de
termination of the Independent voters
to secure the release of labor and bust
ness from corporate and ring monopoly
to compel both legislation and admins
tration in the interests of the produc
ing classes and to continue the bless
ings of honest state government which
they have enjoyed since the victory O.
1852"
Lieutenant Governor Black declined
to discuss his prospects for the Demo
cratic nomination for governor.

The HaSleton Convention.

We print elsewhere the official re-
port of the proceedings of the congress
sional convention in the Luzerne por-
ton of the eleventh congressional dis
trict. As announced last week, after
Mr.. Buckalew had fairly the Convent
ion, the friends of Michael Cassidy
bolted and held another meeting at
which they nominated Cassidy. Speak
ing of the two men the Plain Speaker
says:
The one has been a Senator of the
United Stated for six years from the
State of Pennsylvania; Senator at
Harrisburg for three full terms and
half of fourth term Minister of the
United States to the Republic of
Ecuador by appointment of President
Buchanan member, and the leading
member, of the Constitutional Conven-
ton the foremost statesman, by com
mon consent, in all the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania. The other man is
the clerk of the County Commissioners
of Carbon county neither more nor
less. That clear majority of the del
egates voted for Senator Buckalew was
to be expected. But it is a matter of
profound interest and Importance that
twenty-five men could be induced to
vote for man absolutely untitled for
the high Office of member of Congress.
OF course the purpose to bolt and break
up the convention was early formed.
The men from Mauch Chunk who
brought the Doodle, came here for no
other purpose. If the majority in
favor of Mr.. Buckalew had been ten
instead of three, the bolt would have
taken place all the same Two years
ago Mr.. Price had thirty-one votes and
aorman had ten votes, but none the
less bolt took place. But what word
of excuse can be urged in behalf of
men who for corrupt purposes come in
to and seek to break up the conven-
tion they are powerless to control.
We speak to men who we know will
understand us when we say that all
this business will have an important
and perhaps decisive influence on the
Legislative and County nominations
1t is idle to attempt to disguise the
Indignation of great majority of the
Democratic voters over the result of
yesterdays business. There may not
be great deal said, but at the polls
the voters are certain to repay with
interest the malignant and senseless
course of the minority, and particular
ly, if their unwise course is persisted
in
