the Democrats went on with the
counting in spite Of the fact that only
forty members we're present.
The Republicans this morning fled
a formal protest to the whole pro-
ceeding, and asked that it be spread
upon the journal Of the assembly.
The petition and protest were debat-
ed at length. The Democrats, in
search of a pretext to reject it, claim
ed that it was not couched in proper
language The language was amend
ed in accordance with their demands
and still they refused to allow it to
be entered on the record Instead,
they proposed and carried by strict
party vote resolution to the effect
that they would admit or hear of no
protest at all. Then the reading of
the election returns, with the Cover.
nor's vote omitted, was continued,
and the Republicans withdrew. One
of the senator's remained to make a
motion for a recess, and this motion
on the roll call showed the absence
Of quorum. The point was raised
that the further proceedings we're out
of order, but the speaker calmly ruiz
ed that the matter was of no import
ance, although the constitution ex-
pressly provides that the returns
shall be published in the presence Of
a quorum Of both houses.
The greatest irregularity in some
of the returns was shown by the read
ing. In Webster county the vote
for attorney general was missing
In Wood county the auditors vote
was missing. The assembly, howev-
er, went on and continued the publ
cation. without taking consideration
Of these facts beyond appointing q
committee to investigate them.
There is no important change in
the senatorial situation. Kenna's
doom is sealed, but who will be elect
ed is still matter of mystery. The
Democrats are as badly split among
themselves as ever, and there is no
prospect of healing the breach.
There were two ballots taken to-day
for senator, which resulted Goff40;
Kenna, 80; Goshorn, 3 ex-senator
