Tus rsRRsrexy,s SHAME.

All the ipdioati sns-ard there are
nany-of then-point 10 the faes ina'
eorrups and masterpieces lobby - a.
work at Olympia and that il has secured
control Of the Legislators, or 70 speak
more properly, Of one branch OF The
Legislature. II may be taken for grant
cd that all measures favorable TO the
people a. opposed to the corporations,
favorable to the merchants Of the Ter
rissry a. opposed to those Of Portland
and San Francisco, favorable to white
labor a. opposed 10 Chinese. will be dc
fsated tn the Council. A majority OF
that house appear TO have rendered up
their sools, and like the slaves tina. they
are, they oringe before their delectable
masters and obey the word OF CON
rnand a. II comes 10 them from the
corporation headquarters. The lobby
which has been aba 10 render itself
thus powerful seems not 70 represent any
single interest, bat rather 20 be CON
bination OF all the corrupt and upright
sous elements IN the politics OF the
Territory. The Northern Pacific rail
road and its strikers are, Of course, the
leading spirits, but they have called to
their aid all who believe that corruption
ID proper card 10 play in the game Of
politics-that diamonds are perpetual
trumps.
In the House the lobby does not seem
10 have secured 20 firm hold. Here
bills IN the interest Of the people and the
Territory still receive respectful oonsid-
Grafton. But in this branch. also. there
are strikers at work. and though they
have thus far failed In their efforts 10
secure a majority Of the lower house,
they are not discouraged bat keep on
hoping for success in the end. As 1t
stands the lobby cannot force through
any new legislation, bat IL can prevent
the change of any Of the present laws
which experience has shown TO be IN
satisfactory.
This 10 the Territory's shame. The in
terssss of the people have been betrayed
a. fouliy as IL the nefarious plans had
been laid by Judas, the patron saint
Of ell betrayers. Every measure
whish the people Of the Territory are
known 70 be practically united in desir
inQ will be defeated. What h popular
opinion, the privileges or the rights of
citizens, when the crack Of the master
vhip 10 heard? There is bat one oonso-
lation and that is that there always
comes q day when the people rule.
Rstribation awaits all who have besray-
Cd their trust.

The situation 10 the Ohio Legislature
10 peculiar one. II will be remember
Cd that Al the election last October the
Democratic Senators and Representa-
tives from Hamilton County we're de
clared elected, and although there was
ample proof that their elections had
been procured by fraud, certificates Of
election we're given to them. With
these Democratic members seated the
State Senate was Democratic by three
majority, while the lower House was
still Republican by six majority. In
the latter the question of who should
occupy the seats from Hamilton County
was quickly settled by the unseating Of
the Democrats aud the seating Of their
Republican opponents. In the Senate.
however, where the Democrats were in
I majority by the aid Of the Hamilton
County votes, this could not be done.
Another device for securing possession
of the Senate was accordingly hit upon.
by the constitution OF the State of Ohio
the Lieutenant Governor is the presid-
ing officer Of the Senate. Robert
Kennedy, the present Lieutenant
Governor, Ia Republican. and
thus, though the Senate was Demo
cratic, 1t was presided over by q Repub-
loan. The Democratic Clerk, Vsllan-
digham, had placed the Democrats
from Hamilton upon the roll Of the
Senate, and their votes aided the Dem.
ocrats In the organization. Their seats
we're contested. however, and Presi-
dent Kennedy decided that pend
Ina the result of the contest
they were not entitled TO vote. In
other words, be decided that until the
contest was settled the seats from Ham
ilton county were vacant. From this
decision the Democrats very naturally
appealed, whsreupon the presiding OH
Ger IN putting the question on the sp
peal refused 10 receive the votes OF the
Hamilton county members, maintaining
that his decision stood until reversed
and that the seats must be considered
vasant antil the Senate sustained the
appeal from his decision. OF course.
without the Hamilton county votes. the
Republicans we're in a majority and the
chair accordingly declared lie ruling
sustained. The Democrats refused 10
BE- bound by this. and Clerk vAilasdie-
ham retained the names OF the Hsmil-
ton county Democrats on the roll. Tha.
ID happens that there are tvo rival Sen.
sses. Clerk valiandisham's senate GOA
sissa Of ell the Democratic members,
including those from Hamilton coaniy.
Chairman Kennedyis Senate consists Of
the Republican members alone. the
Hamilton county seats being vacant. II
ID . rsxzls, and II Is no, easy 10 zee how
ths matter vill be settled. While the
hspubiican claimants are doubtless

sssts, the Democrats seem 10 hold the

TEAM RUNAwAY.-Yesterday after
noon Charles Smith, who runs a job
wagon about the city. left his team
standing in front of the W. ID. Scott
building, when the horses became
frightened aud started up Commercial

one of the horses fell and was dragged
by the other some distance, his head
striking against the awning posts along
the route. The awnings IN front of the
Boca Beer Hall and the Saddle X Ok
Restaurant were knocked down. aud in
the descent the handsome globe in
front Of the beer hall was broken and
several lights were broken out of the
glass front of the restaurant. The
horses and wagon escaped uniniured.

bis willingness to psy the damages, bat

ness he had no m ,Isy at present with
which to pay. The total damage will
not exceed fifty dollars.
