The action Of Governor Pattison IN calling
together the Senate Of Pennsylvania in extra
session to consider the cases Of the Auditor
General and State Treasurer is in accord with
his whole course from the time OF his first
induction into public Office. These officers
are suspected on good grounds OF having
been deeply implicated in the defalcations OF
Bardsley. the treasurer Of Philadelphia. who o
duties also required him TO make collections Of
the revenues due the State.
Regarding 1t az incumbent upon him as
chief executive of Pennsylvania TO bring
every State officer, however remotely in
yolyed in that crime against the people to
justice Governor Pattison has taken the
only step open to him to accomplish that end.
In calling tho Senate together be has trans
ferred to that body the responsibility Of
Thoroughly investigating the reports which are
now doing 50 much damage to the characters
Of the two most important financial officers
under the State government.
VIII the Senate perform its duty? Being
Republican body and the men TO be prose
cuted being leading Republicans, it may well
be supposed that the task imposed upon them
is not congenial one That it will be shirked.
If possible, is not open 10 the slightest doubt,
but chief executive stands behind them who
will watch their proceedings with the closest
attention. and who will sternly rebuke the
first indication of an intention to ignore what
the people anxiously expect of them.
The two officers TO be prosecuted have taken
the position that it is not in the scope of the
Senates jurisdiction to try them for their sup
posed malfeasance in the management of the
duties Of their Offices. They also deny the
right Of the Governor to call the extra session.
All the chances are that the Senate will, after
calculated delay, admit the force OF this
answer. and recommend tho dismissal Of the
cases.
1t will not do, in their private opinion. for
two Republican officials of such high rank
to be tried in an assembly, all Of whose acts
are followed so attentiyely by the people Of
Pennsylvania An examination of these
charges would be far less notorious if carried
on in court of justice and, therefore. much
less calculated TO make deep impression on
the popular sentiment of Pennsylvania This
Is not the time when any matter should be
dragged before the public that seems at all
likely to create q still greater detection in the
ranks # the State Republican party.
This will be the manner in which the Re-
publican members o. the Senate of Pennsy-
vania will argue to themselves and they will
show political shrewdness in doing so, but.
- Il
there is a man occupying the Governors
chair who believes that a public Office is q
public trust, and for any breach of that
trust the party so guilty should be punished
to the fullest extent Of the law.

THE MORO IN OKLAHOMA.

The New York ommercal-Adyertiser is
not inclined TO think that Oklahoma is in any
danger OF becoming a.negro commonwealth. in
spite Of the well-laid scheme Of a negro
named McCabe. who is anxious to be elected
to the United States Senate when the Territory
is converted into State. McCabe is now
theoretically employed in promoting the i'm
migration OF Southern negroes with the view
of bringing about great numerical prepon-
derance in favor of the colored voters.
If Oklahoma" remarks the Advertiser,
rs to be- captured by negroes it must be
from one of two causes. either Oklahoma is
not attractive enough TO induce white popu-
ton. or the blacks are more industrious. more
enterprsing and more successful than the
whites
Neither proposition is thinkable. For if
Oklahoma is not good enough place for the
white man the negro will not be prosperous
enough there to remain And if it is worth
striving for. history tells which race will get
the best of the competition.
Moreover, even granting that the negroes
might gain a majority in the Territory it does
not follow that decay and degradation would
be the necessary result Isolated in Liberia
and Hayti the negro has not advanced in the
scale Of civilization. but in Oklahoma he
could not isolate himself lie would he sur
rounded by tho best people in the world. He
is an imitator essentially; he would initiate
some of the good features Of his neighbors'
civilization as well as the bad"
This is all very well in theory. The misfor-
tune for Oklahoma would be that if the ne
groes could really maintain their supremacy
the whites would probably abandon the Ter
ritory but in case they did not withdraw
there would be a constant friction between
the two races. leading TO broils that could
not fail to exercise an injurious influence on
the fortunes OF the new community.
