SAN BERNARDINo country has a large
and creditable exhibition of her products
on view in New York city. We have held,
and still think, that these county and
limited exhibitions are not the best; that
the whole State, and not mere section of
it, should be presented to the people of the
East by show of representative products in
exhibitions. But since the people of San
Bernardino think differently, we trust that
they will realize the wisdom of forbidding
their agents in charge of the exhibition
presenting the exhibits comparatively, or
accompanied by representation detrimental
to other sections. Nothing more preju-
dices the mind of the visitor against the
State than the assault of one section upon
another. Every exhibitor of our products
should stand for California, and the whole
Of California, however much he lauds his
own country or district. By that method
he inspires respect for his representations
and gives the visitor to understand that
there is no other side to the matter.

THE action of the Democratic Senators
of Montana in fleeing from the State to de-
feat quorum, and thus throw the selec-
ton of United States Senators into the hands
of the Governor, is disgraceful. 1t is
worse, it is revolutionary. 1t defeats the
will of the people and practically sus-
ponds the functions of a republican form
of government. When a party cannot
control through parliamentary and legisla-
tive methods, it should submit To with
draw and flee and defy the State to carry
on its business is in contempt of the SOW
ereign, the people. No possible excuse
can be advanced for such action that will
receive the concurrence of the people. 1t
may be it is sharp trick but SO, too, is
that of the thimble-rigger who robs an
unsophisticated traveller.

of the policy and has received the support
of the better craftsmanship of the country.

One could have safely forecast that in
the matter of the ruling of Speaker Reed
both the New York Epening Post and the
New York Times would be found on the
Democratic side. And when the papers
come to hand, "sure enough" there they
are. Both are able journals, among the
ablest of the day, and yet while each pro-
fesses to have regard for the Republican
party, neither loses an opportunity to as
sail it. In this matter, of the ascertain
ment of quorum, it must be said, how
ever, that the Post finds nothing in the
Constitution of the United States, as
in the organic instruments of many States,
providing that there shall be roll-call
and quorum voting. 1t, therefore, is
compelled to fall back upon precedent,
long custom and the reasoning that the
usage tends to do no injury, while it COM
pels majority to attend, and checks the
extravaganza Of a dormant faction. But
why are not equally as worthy ends ac-
complished by the proposed new rule,
that will count as present those really
bodily present, and by holding those pres
ent responsible for legislation had? That
is to say, why should the minority escape
responsibility for legislation by sitting in
silence2 Why should not it be held re-
sponsible for any legislative accomplish
ment, if by silence it gives consent?

IT appears that the "seat swindle" is not
practiced by the Abbey Grau-Patti combi-
nation alone In New York, according to
the Post, applicants for seats at the Metro
politan Opera House to hear "Gotterdam-
merung" were told that there were no seats
to be had, absolutely not one, except in the
front row of the orchestra, where no lover
of opera willingly sits. Where then could
seats be had, if not at the box office? "Oh,
at the Gilsey House, the Fifth Avenue or
the Windsor some one might be found with
seats to SELL" And so it was at each of
those houses seats in plenty were for sale
but it required the application of few
silver dollars extra to make tickets forth
coming. There ought to be some means
of compelling these show people to honestly
deal with the public. If hotel-keeper
advertises the price of rooms the law COM
pels him to keep his offer good, and no
subterfuge will avail him in refusal, GER
tainly not such as those behind which the
manager of opera hides.

CONGRESSIONAL.
IN THE SENATE,

WASHINGTON. February 1Sth-In the Senate

appropriating S500000 for public building in
Portland, Oregon, was taken from the calendar

The Senate resumed consideration of the bill
to provide a temporary government for Okla
homa the pending question being Plumb's
amendment to comprise No Mans Land within
the new Territory.
Vest again spoke in favor of the amendment
Reagan and Plumb also advocated the amend
ment, the latter saying that the condition in
which No Mans Land was left was a scandal
on the legislation of the country. He expressed
amazement that the Committee on Territories
had set itself so strongly, and so totally without
reason, against the proposition OF It's Inclusion
Finally vote was taken, resulting ayes "a
noes 16-thus including No Mans Land within
the Territory of Oklahoma
Plumb also offered an amendment to attach
the Cherokee outlet to Oklahoma for Judicial
purposes. This was rejected after some debate,
in which the discussion OF several days ago as
to the report OF the threat against the Commits
sioaers negotiating with the Cherokees was
gone over again
Vest offered an amendment prohibiting the
legislative assembly from authorizing the issue
OF any bonds, script or evidence of debt for any
purpose, except certificates for services reu-
dered.
After considerable debate Vest modified it
By limiting the prohibition to bonds in aid of
railroads, and the amendment was adopted.
some further formal amendments were agreed
to and the bill passed. The executive session
then adjourned.

THE ASSESSORS CONTEN
IION.

Pursuant to previous arrange.
ments convention composed Of Il
majority Of the assessors of this
state was held at Baton Rouge
last week and remained in session
two days. There was 3 general
discussion of all matters pertain.
Ing to the duties ETC., OF the as
sessors, but outside Of a few
resolutions passed and memorial
addressed to the legislature moth
ing was done. The reports of the
various assessors showed vast
difference in the valuation placed
upon property IN different par
ishes, but this was q matter
known to all before this, and as
no remedy was suggested of course
no good was done. We contend
now as we have before, that the
whole matter OF assessments rests
with the assessor, the property
owner and the police jury. The
main and only question TO deter
mine, is the actual cash value
Of o piece Of property and thus
assess it at that value. When
this is done the assessor has COM
piled with the law. There is no
doubt that property of like
character has been assessed high
er in some parts OF the state
than others and that pro-
perty all over the state as a rule
been assessed below its actual
cash value but this is the fault of
the parties interested and not of
the laws of the state.

AFFAIRS IN CONGRESS-.

For several days past excite
m.nt and pandemonlum have
reigned in the legislative halls of
the United States. Never perhaps,
in all the history Of the govern.
ment has such revolutionary and
measures been rcsorted
to rs those adopted by speaker
Reod. As IN unbrldlcd autocrat
lie sits there. gavel in hand, pro.
poses and disposes at his own
good pleasure, regardless OF rules,
regulations or lormer preVedents.
Two months ago committee on
rules were appointed consisting
mainly Of Republicans, but dur
ing all this time they have not
reported, and The House has been
drifting along without chart or
compass. save the biddings and
dictates Of this partisan Speaker.
He refuses TO entertain motions
made by Democrats, refuses to
recognize then on the floor of the
House for the purpose of debate,
yet when they refuse to vote he
recognizes them and counts q
quorum.
We do not as rule favor fillibus-
tcring or any methods which tend
to delay legislation, but when a
set of paItisans undertake to pass
such high handed and partisan
measures as the Republicans in
congress are seeking to do, then
We justify almost any acts which
tend to thwart their purposes
and defeat their ends. Mr.. Read s
late ruling which declare motions
and bills passed, when less than a
quorum voted ia unsupported by
all the authors of parliamentary
law and by the constitution OF the
United States which says, "a
majority ofeach house shall con
sJitate quorum to do business"
Acc@dingto the rulings OF Speak
er Reed q bill could be legally
passed which had received only
one vote, Which is absurd. The
most prominent leaders Of the
Republican party do not agree
with Nr. Reed in his unprecedent-
ed rulings all of which are made
for political and partisan purposes.
In fact the Record has been pro-
duced wherein Reed himself while
apon the floor of the house declar-
ed shat a bill or q motion could
not he passed unless q quorum
was present and participated in
the voting.
So wrought up and indignant
hSye the Democrats become on
account of treatment received at
the hands of o small majority,
that they were strongly inclined a
few days since to leave the whole
matter with Reed and his camp
followers and come home to their
constituents.
