THE ELEVEN FIFTY-NINE LEGISLATURE.

1t was discovered centuries ago that
the man who did not get around till the
eleventh hour was not of much use, but
it remained for this era of Reform to find
out how late in the session legislature
could begin the real business for which
it assembled. The general assembly at
Montpelier is now within a week of ad-
iournment, and it has neither done any
thing nor ascertained what it wants to
do. The agricultural callege question
came up for discussion in the House only
yesterday. No action has been taken on
the school law. The corporation lax
bill is just reported. Judges are to be
elected, but even the number of them has
not been fixed. How these important
matters can be decenrly disposed of, to
say nothing of minor business which
should receive attention, during the short
time now remaining is "a mystery to out
siders. Possibly it will be solved by
Thanksgiving and all will wonder how
they ever could have doubted the capacity
of the assembly to do business.

some majority. His many friends con-
gratulate him.

Whether the people will pipe the like
tune depends very much on the action of
the Legislature during the next few days.
They wont do it unless the legislature adj
journs next Wednesday, and, in the mean
time, does a number of things and does
them right.

Stanley and the relatives of the late Mai.

IT Pays It's Compliments 20 Bach, Ton
aud tns Laurel Gazette.


aud tns Laurel Gazette.
The Laurel Gazette had a long dona
tion from IFS Washington huraeu
which it published in part pay
ment for the $500 press furnished it
by Senator Higgins In this contribution,
which is three ifths TRADE and two-fifths
lies, the writer, Frederick Eden Bach,
attempts TO deny that he (Bach)
has been swindling the government
out of 81 440 per year as charged
| by the Index But Bach's denial of his
own crookedness will not go down. The
| truth is that the Index, as long ago as
last October, directly charged Bach with
drawing 81 44O per annum from the
folding department at Washington, in
addition to the pay he was and
is drawing as private secretary to
Anthony Higgins We further charged
that he never did days
work In the folding department for this
pay, which he wrongfully appropriated.
We asked the Morning News to deny this
charge, and, though claiming to be the
leading Republican organ of Delaware,
the News admitted that the charge was
true. Then in addition, the State Senti
mel, not only admitted its truth, but
commented severely upon what it termed
the "crookedness of Higgins and Bach :"
This is the plain case made out against
Bach and Higgins, and it will take
more than Bach's own denial in paper
controlled by Higgins and himself, to
disprove it. Especially, since they had
to wait almost year, and then buy a
paper of their own, because no decent
Republican paper In the state would de-
fend them, though solicited and begged
to do so.
But Bach is not satisfied. now that b
has paper of his own, with endesvoring
to lie out Of his own swindling opera
tions, be must have revenge, and
In order to obtain 1t ha attempts
to malign the characters Of lead
ing Democrats Of the state. His
structures ia reference to them are so
puny and nonsensical, that a smile rather
than scowl is awakened.
It won't do Bach. The Index makes
a direct charge Of crookedness and swind
ling against You and Higgins. Your own
Republican papers admitted and reiter-
ated it, and it will take more than two
columns of denial and vituperation in
your puny paper, to make the citizens of
Delaware believe that you are not pair
of peculators Dover Index.

YIELDING to the opportunities Of the

draw subscriptions, the Worlds Fair

an arrangement demanded for the pur.
pose Of land spectators is not conve-
nient for the people or likely
to prove beneficial to the Fair.
There are no indications that the
people Of Chicago are taking any real in
terest in the Fair, and in the hands OF
the spectators it win be converted into
simply a scheme for making money. *

that the Fair is in the hands OF the specu

cerned, though il may make money 70

A PoLlTlcAl pARApox.


When this Congress met the small ma
jority urged first, that there should be
new rules to enable them to attend to
''the business of the country" and sec
ond. that the majority Of three, elected
by the people was not sufficient to give
them control Of the House.
They brought in new rules which gave
tyrannical and intensely partisan
Speaker absolute control Of the House,
and unseated Democrats. who had been
elected. to seat Republicans who had not
been elected, in sufficient numbers to
pass or defeat any measure which might
come up.
But Congress has been in session
seven long months and the result is
only pension bill. With absolute
power in ali the departments Of the
Government; with a Speaker who is un
scrupulous, who hesitates at no partisan
unfairness and acts without re gard to
precedent, common sense or justice /;
with party which is obedient to caucus
dictation this is still the slowest and
most unbusiness-like body Of legislators
which ever sat in any hall, except the
carpet-bag Legislatures Of Louisiana,
Mississippi and South Carolina during
the reconstruction era 1t is unlike any
legislative body which was ever
congregated in free country. Such
scenes as have occurred there during this
30 called "business" session have never
been equalled for disorder, dissensions
personal elimination and recrimination,
injustice to the minority, unfair partisan
rulings and suppression Of debate With
an alarmingly narrow majority, counted
in and increased in an extremely doubt
full and suspicious manner, with rules
and Speaker to enforce them for the
suppression Of the minority absolutely
no legislation has been accomplished.
Such spectacle was never presented
to the world before. Such condition
would not be endured, but for the fact
that the people know that their liberties
are safe, and that they expect to change
the complexion of the House at the next
election.
Ifsueh condition should have occurred
in England, the Parliament would have
been dissolved and an appeal made to the
people If in France, the Deputies would
have gone to the cantons for re-endorse-
ment and reelection.
Thaf auch a state ~ affairs exists hare
Is paradexical. 1t is because we are so
secure in eur liberties that the people
are apathetic IL is because the people
know that they have full possession Of
their liberties In spite Of the most un-
just, unfair and tyrannical rulings
Of partisan Speaker, backed by the
smallest majority which ever attempted
to exercise authority in any country in
the history Of the world, and in spite Of
the fact that this accidental and
fraudulent majority represents a
minority Of the people, great
number Of whom are ignorant negroes
It is curious that the behavior which
would have brought about a civil war in
any other country. is regarded with
Indifference in this. the freest country
This is condition which Is as phe-
nomenal as it IL paradoxical In the freest
country in the world we have the
spectacle Of the greatest travesty upon
Legislation and the vulgarest exhibition
Of partisan tyranny the world ever knew.

THE vacancy on the bench, caused BY
the death Of Judge Paynter, brings
many able and worthy young men to the
front. Perhaps the bar Of Delaware
never included SO many young attorneys
who wore capable Of filing the position,
rs there are now. This is a matter upon
which TO congratulate the state and the
Democratic party. The people Of the
state may feel justly proud Of this con-
dition. and the Democratic party may
recognize this fact as 3 sign that the
