Ucnso,. Ilip nf tho Press.

Under the lottery law framed by Congress and the instructions given by the Postmaster General to his subordinates throughout the country, there IS serious danger of enoroach- ments on the liberty of the press that should be rebuked and opposed by the newspapers of the country without :e- gard to party lines.
 These postmasters are instructed to act as ccnsors and inspect all second class matter, and whenever the post master finds, what he considers unIaw fal matter, or even suspects that arti- cles are of that charactor, he is author ized to suppress the publication and refuse 1t passage through the mails.
 This dangerous innoyation IS claimed under the spacious pretext of suppress ing lottery advertisements, and 50 far the public seems to acquiese without a protest against this new assumption of power. If this step meets with popular favor then the next rloyo will be to examine first class matter, break ing the seals of letters in search of con. tra6and publications or wri5ines. Ii that be accomplished then will rapidly forget the Louisiana State Lottery i; the multitude Of grounds upon whioi these postmasters can act as censors oi press and peopio.--LsNiuston (hy., Press, Nov. ,.

He will wonder how they know these things were in the paper, but wonder in vain. There is evil dently vast amount of 'sponging' done.

Wagon Roads

People of mountain counties want next legislature to pass 8 road law that will be of some benefit to us all. To do so it will be necessary to put more money into the road funds and to have the same used to the best advantage, under direction of the boards of super visors or general road overseers. It IS 8 fact that tens of thousands of dollars have been wasted by the old method Of permitting "overseers" to do as they pleased. We can no longer afford such extravaganza; must have better roads and, Of course, more hon est expenditure of funds.-Prescott Courier.

A QUORUM.

Speaker REED held that majority of the
members of the House of Representatives
was quorum competent to transact bust
ness; that the mere presence of this major
lty constituted that quorum: that major
lty OF those voting when quorum was
present was sufficient for the passage of a
bill.
mus. IT majority were present, but only
three voted, one against and two in favor Of
pending measure, it would pass the House.
A minority cannot prevent the passage of
bill it may delay it, but cannot defeat a
Dill that the majority desires to pass. The
majority always rules. But observe that the
democrats demanded only that very thing.
They demanded that the speaker should
muster his majority in support of his own
partisan measures, and nos pass bills simply
through the enforced presence of enough
democrats to make quorum. His own
party majority could not be persuaded to
vote for some of his measures.
Thus bill Objectionable to many Repub-
licans, the force bill, for example, could
not be passed by the affirmative votes of
the Republicans alone, if all the membsrs
were present in their seats. The Demo
Gratis would all vote against it, and not
enough Republicans would vote in the
affirmative to carry it through. But let
several of each party be absent, the alb
sentees on the Republican side being those
who had voted with the Democrats against
an Objectionable bill. Then it is clear that
the Republicans would have a majority of
those present, and could pass bill by a
partial vote of their own party, though
opposed by the united votes of the Democ-
racy.
This method of passing bills is not ma
jority rule at all: and the only reason for
Its adoption was that the speaker feared
that few of his party would occasionally
revolt and vote with the Democrats.
A majority of the members Of the House,
not majority of those present merely, is
the only majority that should enact laws
for great country. Under the Speakers
rule, little over one-fourth of the mem
bers could pass bill against the opposi-
ton of al the others, on any day when a
mere majority was present. If those
present deemed any proceeding illegal,
unconstitutional. or for other reasons de-
clined to take part in voting, on the ground
OF not understanding the matter in hand,
forinstance, then it would pc possible, as
remarked above, to pass bill by only two
affirmative votes.
The rights of the minority were no less
clearly than forcibly stated By Mr. REED
himself on January 81, 1850, when he was
on the floor of the House:
''The members Of the minority of this
House upon great occasions demand that
every bill when it passes shall receive the
absolute vote of majority of the members
elected"

OF COURSE Governor FRANCIS E. WAR
rem has been elected United States Sen
ator by the Wyoming legislature. 1t was
understood that in the event of the Repub-
licans getting a majority in the legislature
Governor WARREN would be one of the
Senators, Judge CAREY being the other,
hence the lawmakers, in choosing the gen
tlemen named, have simply carried out the
expressed will and wishes of the voters.
Inasmuch as the state was bound to send
Republicans, we are glad that it has taken
two of its most eminent citizens, and two
who best of all were entitled to the honors.
CAREY and WARREN are foremost citizens
of the new state. and we believe that Wy

nate their own officers, who mus.
be approved by the Sultan; the
governor and his organ demand that he be
given little more authority in this respect
than the Sultan has, so that he may appoint
certain county officers" without any
formality whatever The Porte (the
Turkish government permits semblance
of local self government among the pro-
vinces in the way Of making nominations for
officers, just as the Utah commission per-
mltted the majority of the voters in this
city atthe last election to play at voting,
even while they had practically disfran-
chised them In Turkey, the governors
of provinces (pashas) are appointed
by the Porte. In Utah the governor is APP
pointed by the President, by and with the
consent and advice of the Senate. In
Turkey the judges of the courts are APP
pointed by the Porte; in Utah they are APP
pointed by the President. In Turkey the
people are taxed without representation in
the government; in Utah people are taxed
without a representative entitled to vote,
and hence without representation in any
true sense. In Turkey the functiouaries
of government are appointed by
the Porte: in Utah the Offices
worth anything, the federal offices, from
governor down to mail carrier are filed by
appointments made in Washington. In
Turkey the courts often use their power to
Cypress the people; in Utah the right of
trial by jury in all kinds of cases is denied
to the party that constitutes three-fourths
Of the population. Troops are frequently
used to terrorize the people of Turkey; at
the solicitation of the Liberal party few
years ago troops were quartered IN the
centre of this city, and the adoption of
martial law was advocated by the same
party
s In Turkey the people are not tantalized
with the name of a republican form of gov
ernment as they are in Utah, so that they
know what to expect; but in this territory,
thanks to the efforts of the Liberal party,
an American commonwealth is turned into
an Asiatic province, while the creatures
who have accomplished this crime are for
ever clamoring for more of this species of
despotism.
