Tho Legislature Adjourned.
The Legislature adjourned at the
expiration of the constitutional lin
it Of forty-iive days.
We might sum up its work by
saying that it elected U. S. Sena-
tor and took the preliminary steps
to try The contest for Governor.
In the way of legislation, nothing
of any special Importance was ac-
complished. A few local bills, and
the general appropriation bills were
pushed through.
We do not know of any bill of gen.
eral Importance having passed, un-
less it was a militia bill, and that
is probably more general than i'm
portant.
1t is expected that Gov. Wilson
will call an extra session about the
middle of May; at which time the
evidence will have been taken and
the facts bearing on the contest for
Governor, ready to submit. 1t was
impossible for the Legislature to
pass an order of adjournment to any
future date, because the Republican
Senate would not agree to it. Fol-
lowing put the same policy, it is fair
to assume that if General Golf had
been seated as Governor pending
the contest he would have refused to
call a session, and no contest could
have been tried So also, as he pro-
poses to swear in as Governor on the
4th of March without any official
declaration of his election, it is fair
to assume that if he is willing to go
in without an official declaration he
would refuse to go out on an official
declaration that he was not entitled
to the office.
The Democrats were, therefore,
not far wrong when they acted upon
the assumption that to seat a Gov
ernor and then attempt to unseat
him would be very complicated and
dangerous method Of trying a con-
test for that office.

The effort.made in the legislature
to reduce the salary of the President
of the University was inexcusable,
to say the least. The author of the
measure evidently labors under a
misapprehension. It is too true that
the inadcquacy of the compensation
paid professors al our State Universe
ty has tendency to keep the best
and most desirable talent away from
our greatest school, and the Univers-
ity Of West Virginia is several de-
grces below the position it should oc-
cupy as great educational institu-
tion. The legislature has always
been niggardly in the matter of ap-
preparations to this school, though
there is no more useful or deserving

versity should be literally patron

The failure of the passage of the
bill for reduction of the salary Of
the President of the University
proves conclusively that the Legisla-
ture did some of its best work near
the close. The reasons assigned why
the reduction should be made con
tanned more Of the elements of the
ridiculous than any other quality.
The President of the University gets
moderately fair compensation for
his services, but to secure a good
able man for the place at less rate

and all will agree that the $4,000 he
gets is not single copper too much.
