The boiling Senators are little top
heavy over their election, and expected
To take charge of the Senate by reason OF
their unparalleled greatness. Their
heads will gradually harden and they
will know more in . short time.-Ty6in
Tribune.
When you are in party, Aght for all
you want. but when the caucus or con.
vention decides against you with any
reasonable fairness, abide by ite decision
or quit the party. Ifyou unite with the
enemy to defeat your own partisans, you

The fellows who have but one rule of
action, and that is TO ''get there" by any
means, need an occasional .snubbing,
and our oversmart Senators have got
theirs in very good time. And yet we
do not think the combination with the
Democrats was justiaable or will pay in
the end.-Msigs County Telegraph.
It Ii left for the New York Star to
make the discovery that the caucus can
didates for offices in the Ohio Senate
were Foraker's condidates, and that the
Democrats and the boiling Senators
broke the Foraker slate. The Governor
had about as much to do with the action
Of the caucus a. he has to do with the

Had the eight Republican Senators
who were dissatisfied with the action Of

could have found much fault with them.
But combination with the Doodle De-
mocracy to defeat the caucus nominees
That was too mueh.-Clepeland Leader.
In taking the course they did-making
combination with the Democrats-the
bolters have given rise to the reasonable
suspicion that 1t was they who wanted
to gobble all the offices and control all
the committees, and that being defeated
in the caucus they resorted to bolt in
order TO accomplish their ends.-Cleve.
land Leader.
It is shameful that such q wrangle
should occur in the Senate over such
trivial matter. The boilers will regret
such action, and the encomiums which
they will receive will compare favorably
with those dealt out to the pernicious
Mugwumps Of New York when they de.

Judge Lowry, OF Kenton, boiling Clerk
of the Ohio Senate, has received his last
Office from the Republican party. He
has stultifed and disgraced his political
record, -" The rule of caucus il that
amajority must govern. He who violates
this rule after having subscribed to it by
participation in it is traitor to his party,
If he rebels against the law to which he
subscribed.-Dayton Journal.
A bolt in the Republican Senate Of
Ohio upon contemplate trifle has star
tied the party all over the country. The
eight Senators who did this wretehed
work will not hear the last Of it when
they aspire to other honon. We could

In the Senate there was some bad
work. It 10 charged that thirteen Re-
publicans combined against their twelve
colleagues and made ''slate." which
they deliberately voted through at the
caucus. The same is charged of
every Legislature or Convention, and, If
true, on the sacred principle of majority
rule, should have been quietly acquisced

the kicking Senators attended the caucus
