committee reported that fact to the
uouse. which brought kilbourn before
its bar. and. on his continuing his re-
fusai. II ordered him 10 be committed TO
the common Jail of the District. which
order Thompson, its Sergeant-at- Arms,
duly executed. Kilbourn sued the Ser
eeant for false imprisonment, and Thomp-
son pleaded the order of the House as
his warrant for what he had done. This
brought the whole question Of the Consti-
tuition and the powers of the House under
the review OF the Supreme Court. which
held that IL could not center the power
upon its Sergeant. and that he was there
fore guilty OF a trespass. The country
cannot have forgotten that at the trial
the jury rendered a verdict against
Thompson for 100000 damages.

In the nature of things, have such power
to be able to perform the duties imposed
upon 1t by the Constitution. The Court
pronounced against both grounds.
1t went into an examination Of the con-
stitution OF the House of Commons, and
showed that that body had once been
part Of Parliament when Parliament was
not only the law-making power OF Eng
land, but also a high court exercising all
the functions of court, the three orders,
Lords, Commons and Clergy, sitting as
one body. and not as now. as two. Later
Parliament was divided into two bodies,
Lords and Commons, each, however, re-
tanning a number Of the functions of a
court, which they had both had in COM
mon while they sat as one body. The
judicial power of the House of Commons
having beer derived in this way, the
Court held that there was no analogy
from which it could be supposed that 1t
was intended the House of Representa-
tives should have the power
1t must not be supposed that from this
exposition Of the law that the House of
Representatives is powerless to conduct
such inquiries as the public interests de-
mand. Congress can make laws pro-
viding for its committees summoning
witnesses and prescribing punishments
for such as do not obey, and such wit
nesses can be prosecuted in the courts
and punished for their recusancy as other
persons who commit offenses are dealt
with. By holding the House of Repre-
sentatives down to this correct line OF
principle 1t is left with full power to pro-
cure information through its committees.

free from all punishment unless con-
victed by the verdict Of a jury is In a
prosecution governed by fixed rules pre-

susrrcrorsLY QUIET.

Every indication npints to Cievelands
overwhelming election. The principles
! ,,nor which the Democracy are conduct
ing the campaign are evidently irresist-
HE I'm a campaign of principle, as is
sbown by the abandonment OF the he
publican party by so many such men as
yyavne Macyeagh and Judge Cooley,
whose consciences will not permit them
,onger 10 remain in the ranks OF so rev.
oIutlonary and corrupt all organization
Then again there is the immense regis
,ration In New York. which clearly indi-
Gates such large Democratic gains as
will make that State-which, by common
consent, is recognized as the pivotal state
certain for the Democratic standard
bearer. All this added 10 the fact that
the same reasons now exist for a Demo
cratic tidal wave as existed in 1880 render
the outlook so strongly Democratic
that a prediction of Clevelands election
is apparently very safe.
There is. however. an air OF suspicion
about the contest which causes doubt to
dispel absolute certainty. 1t has been
noted that this campaign is the most
remarkably quiet one that the country
has ever seen, and this has been attrib-
uted to the theory that the voters have
made up their minds definitely for whom
TO vote, and therefore show no enthusi-
asm. This may be so. and doubtless is so
IN many instances; but there is cause to
fear that this is not the reason the
Republican leaders are quiet.
From theb beginning. the Republican
leaders have been depending on success
through the medium Of immense cam
paign funds, and though making no great
effort at noise and fuss. they are day by
day busily frying fat and saying nothing.
Already they have a campaign fund OF
several million dollars. and are still accu-
mulating more. and they must have some
object in thus piling up money.
They are not keeping quiet for nothing,
we may be sure, and their main, indeed,
only hope, now is to be able to Offset
the strength Of Democratic antf-robber
protection and Force bill teachings by
the purchase Of votes and corruption OF
voters, as they did in 1888. The negro
Langston says that something has been
done which, in his opinion, changed Vir-
ginia In three days, from safely DEM
ocratic to at least doubtful State. and
TO Alabama and other localities we read
that Radical money is being literally
sent in the hope Of breaking up the solid
South.
We do not believe the corruptionists
will be successful. Millions upon millions
of dollars would not be equal In the South
to the horrors and deplorable conse-
quences Of one Force bill. while in the
North tariff extortions and the Autralian
ballot will act as great safeguards against
corruption. Still to be forewarned is to
be forearmed, and now that 1T is pretty
well understood that Doodle is to be the
main hope Of Radicalism from now until
the Sth of November. 1t behooves the
Democracy to do whatever they can to
destroy its subtle and baleful influence.

Davenport says he has no time to at
tend to the Congressional committee APP
pointed to investigate him. At this stage
Of the campaign, when corruption of the
ballot-box and suppressing Democratic
votes are so necessary to his party, It is
highly probable that his time is
fully occupied. 1t is likely, however, that
the work he is now engaged in will fur
nish additional food for the Congressional
investigation. and perhaps Congress will
yet find way to cure his insolence.

dence local news, markets and interest

contain a number Of excellent special
articles, late fashion notes, &C.. all beau
tifully and handsomely illustrated. These
features will Of themselves enable us to
present TO our readers a model news
paper; but TO add to its attractiveness,
II will also have a splendidly-executed
cut Of the Richmond Howitzers' monu-

well-known home artist. William L. Shep-
