SENATOR TELLER's INDIGNATION,

The following special dispatch from
Washington was published in the Cleve
land (Ohio) Plain Dealer of Sunday last
and is reproduced here for the purpose OF
showing the dilemma in which the Re.
publican majority of the Senate now
finds itself consequent upon the confir-
nation of Mr.. Dement, as Surveyor-Gen-
eral for this Territory, to succeed a sus-
pended Republican official:
WASHINGTON, d. c., March ia panic
has struck the Republican Senate. An init
mate friend of Senator Teller of Colorado
will publish tomorrow the detailed version
OF an episode that has just leaked out this
afternoon as startling occurrence in yes-
terday 'slexecutive session. In open Senate.
led by Edmunds the Republicans declared
that appointments to take the place of sus-
pended officers shall not be confirmed un-
less the President explains. All the Repub-
llcan Senators are understood to have as
sented to this proposition. Yet in the case
of Mr.. Il. S. Dement,, confirmed Thursday,
the understanding was violated. Dement,
was nominated to take the place of a
suspended officer. He is pronounced by Illi-
nols Democrats to have been Logan's spy at
Springfield during the Senatorial struggle,
and as traitor of the worst stamp. Mr..
Logan openly acknowledged his personal in
debtedness to him and requested his con-
flrmation as an act of Senatorial courtesy.''
In spite of Mr.. Blair's Characterization of
Dement, as "a monumental ass" Mr.. Hoar
Mr.. Mcmillan, Mr.. Stanford, Mr.. Sewell and
Mr. Cameron, in addition to other Republi-

THE LIBERAL MEETING.

The Territorial Central Committee OF
the Liberal party held meeting yester-
day afternoon, pursuant to the call of its
chairman, for the purpose of taking into
consideration the political situation in
Utah and advising such action thereon
as might be deemed expedient.
In the course of his remarks made at
the opening of the meeting, Judge Nc
Bride said that events had so shaped
themselves during the past few weeks as
to make it imperatively necessary that
the Liberals should come together, talk
over the situation and suggest the
passage by Congress of measures which
will forever settle the questions that have
grown up here out of Mormon lust and
misgovernment. Judge Rosborough ac-
quiesced in all that Judge Mcbride had
said, and predicted that the time was
close at hand when the priestly power
which holds sway here would have to

succumb to the law. Remarks were
made by several other gentlemen, and
the following resolutions were adopted:

Succumb to the law. Remarks were
made by several other gentlemen, and
the following resolutions were adopted:
RESOLVED, That in the sense of this COM
mittee, experience has demonstrated that
the only efectual remedy for the evils exist
ing in Utah is appropriate legislation by
Congress which will withdraw all political
power from the alien organization which has
so long dominated said Territory and used
such delegated power TO aggrapdize itself
and antagonize National laws and instltu-
tions.
Resolced, That Hon. r. N. Baskin, being
fully conversant with the views and wishes
of the liberals of said Territory, is hereby
appointed their duly authorized agent and
representative, and requested to proceed at
once to Washington charged with the duty
of impressing those views on Members of
Congress and the President.
The DEMOCRAT can give these resolu-7
tions its hearty endorsement. To further
strengthen Mr.. Baskin's hands, the
Democratic Central Committee should
now get together and arrange for
a meeting which the masses of the
party can attend, and at which they
can be given an opportunity to
endorse the selection of Mr.. Baskin as the
Gentle delegate to Washington. Too
much earnestness cannot be shown in
this matter, and too much publicity can
not be given to everything connected
with the selection and endorsement of a
delegate and the discussion of measures
which Congress may be asked to enact
into laws for this Territory.
There should be no further delay in CIV
ng the rank and file of the Democrats in
The community chance to add their en-
iorsement to what has already been
Zone, if they approve of it, and that they
