WAsHINGToH CRY. Sept. 2S.-By its sction
today in seating Langston the House ended
wnat II probably the most protracted and Bit
feriy contested election case IL has ever decided.
Inc result was surprise to the Democrats
Alter two weeks OF successful obstruction they
were confident their opponents could not secure
quorum. During the first roll call it was dis
covered that Milliken OF Maine and Mudd Of
maryland were not present. and messengers
were sent alter them. Sweeney of Iowa,
VINO was not expected SO soon,
came in at this juncture, aud with
MI. Mudd cast the votes necessary for quorum.

powerless 10 check the majority yea and

wac did not vote. but paired. r. N. Brown,
buiierheld, Findlay, Hanshorough, Peters and
wilson OF Kentucky were the Republicans alb
sent without pairs. OF these Browne aud Find
lay had leaves on account OF sickness
The Miller case followed Langston. This
caused even greater surprise, and in fact it was
not known generally TO the Republicans that
the Leaders contemplated this move.
The Democrats are considerably mixed over
the days proceedings, and call for caucus
was circulated, for the purpose of endeavoring
10 unite the party by way OF retaliation, but ow-
Ing TO the iateness OF the hour and the small
attendance OF Democrats the attempt to hold
caucus was temporarily abandoned.

not the supreme concern. Even this

Sensational NEWSPAPER.

It is usually assumed that the sole re-
sponsibility for the sensationalism and
vulgarity OF a portion of the American
press rests upon its publishers and con-
ductors Now, liz is a truisn to say that
there would be less criticism of the ae-
tions of others II every one felt due re-
sponsibility FOR his own actions Even
the saloon keeper can dodge behind this
truth. did not create, he says, the de-
mand for strong drink; if did not offer
to supply it some one else would. And it
is true that II the mass of the community
were educated to temperance and self
respect, the saloon keeper would wither
and disappear. The fHllacy IN his posi-
ton is the same as that in the position of
the puryeyor of scandal and sensational
news; he does not merely offer to satisfy
an existing demand, but he stimulates
and creates an appetite by which he
profits. He is not indeed responsible for
the taste of the world, but he is re-
sponsiblc for any action of his that makes
it worse.
This desire for publicity has been culti-
waited by the newspapers, but did they
create it, Would the newspapers con-
tinue to minister to it If the public did
not sustain them? We are enraged at the
journals for daily violations of privacy
that should be sacred, but who buys the
journals? Whatever the newspapers are.
Is it not about time thai the public began
to consider its responsibility in the case?
The fair conclusion Of the whole matter
seems to be that the American people
have the sort of newspapers they prefer.
An increasing number, no doubt, prefer
Il clean and trustworthy newspaper. But
IN this country we are estimated by ma
jorities. -I'he Forum
