firmed by that of the Attorney general,
was that to appoint u committee to
examine the books and accounts of the
various officers, would be making the
court, through such a committee, an
inquisitOr into these matters, while
the Law makes it the duty of the state
law officers. viz: the attorney general
and district attorney, and the grand
jury; and therefore declined to appoint
a committee in accordance with the
recommendations OF the late grand
jury. The district attorney then an
nouneed that be bad called upon the
police jury and school board to make
Investigations, that they reported that
they he'd done so, and found nothing
to report; that be had urged the
grand jury since this subject bad
been opened to make ~ Investigation,
and they did not, saying they had not
sufficient time TO make the iByestiga-
ton. After which, the court adjOaFnd

Henry Wattersonis cheerful sort
Of publcist, who always finds a bright
side to every situation He believes things
are right and then sets about making
them right. The cheerful man can make
things better while the misanthrope
makes himself and others incapable Of
taking advantage even Of what good
things do occur. BE said
think the Republicans have bitten
of more than they can chew. Their plan
lis to secure, during the two years'in
which they possess the government, all
the legislation that they will need for
ten years. They do not expect to carry
the next House but they hope. by the
addition Of new states and by an election
law which will enable them to carry a
few districts ia the South. to put them
selves in shape to carry the general cleo
! tion in 1892 ! do not believe they will
succeed. aud think their extremsm and
| excesses will so react upon them in the
| North ais TO entirely nullify any advan-
tages they may acquire by forced legisla-
tion.
\ While the course Of the extreme Re
publicans in preparing for long
lease Of power by counting in members
of Congress who were not elected, their
position on the tariff, and their advocacy
of subsidies and pensions Is humiliating,
it Is pleasant to know that the people are
not encouraging them. 1t is cheerful
prospect to contemplate the tendency of
the late elections and the almost absolute
assurance it gives that the Republi
cans will lose control of the next House.
Cleveland received 10000 more votes
| than Harrison, and the indications are
that an election nov would
place him in the Presidential chair with
many electoral votes to spare. The Re
publican party has practically abandoned
its position on the prohibitive tariff ques
tion They have the same sort Of fight
in their ranks which the Randall crowd
made for the Democrats. They are held
together, not by conviction or principle,
but by expediency and selfshness. Each
man in Congress pleads for some special
interest; they are agreed upon nothing
but pensions aud subsidies. The more
