GIFT TO DRURY.
Liberal Donation by Judge
Melvin L. Gray, Who En-.
dows a Crair.

During the last few days it became
generally known that St. Louis gen.
ileman had made donation of $685.
900 to endow chair at Drury college,
Springfield, Mo. The exact circum-
stances and conditions of the gift have
not, however, been divulged until
now. The donor is Judge Melvin l..
Gray, who is at present in California
for the benefit of his health.
Some time last year DIR. D. K.
Pearson, Al. d., of Chicago, offered
Drury college, through its trustees,
the sum of $4,000, provided the
friends of the college could add to it
s150,O00. When the financial string
ency came over the country DIR. Pear
son consented to modify his offer by
giving s25, 900 as soon as the college
had raised $40, 600, provided this was
done BY January l, 1894. The col
lege trustees, of whom Rev. j. H.
George of the First Congregational
church, Delmar avenue, St. Louis. is
chairman, at once set to work to
secure the requisite sum. The $751;
600 was divided, the following amounts
being adjudged for the several Sec
tons of the state to raise
Springfield, No., SO, 900; South
west Missouri, $500; Kansas City,
Mo-, $4,000: St. Louis and East
Missouri, S35,U00.
According to the latest reports
Springfield has .pluckily succeeded in
raising its quota. Kansas City and
Southwest Missouri also send favor
able reports, while st. Louis aud East
Missouri have reached S2S, 900, leav-
ing only 81 900 needed to insure the
first s25, 600 from DIR. Pearson, which
will complete the first 100000.
Judge Melvin l.. Gray now offers
to give SD, 900 to endow the chair of
geology at the college in memory of
his late wife who died last July.
Judge Gray asks that his s25, ZOO be
not used until the first $4,000, as
proposed by DIR. Pearson, shall have
been raised. As there is no doubt
whatever that the necessary $1,000
will he forthcoming before January l,
Jud ge Gray's generous offer will then
become available as the first INSTALL
ment of the second s75, 900 needed to
insure for the college the second do
nation of 80, 900 from DIR. Pearson.

THE SUPREME COURT.

II being a coordinate branch OF our
government, we presume that we have a
perfect right to talk right to the Supreme
Court, and tell 1t what the people think.
In fact, we believe that the Supreme Court
is human and likes to know what the
people think.
Well, now, here is what the people
think: They believe that Honey and
owen made fools OF themselves and tho
Democratic party at Newport. They also
believe that Ellery Wilson and his sub
ordinate, Gov. Brown, did the same thing.
so they say, "we cry quits" Both sides
acted foolishly. Everybody knows 1t.
Now, then, comes the questions for the
court Are the people to be "ooughed
down" because two sets OF cheap politi-
clans have made fools OF themselves. We
think not.
The fact OF the matter Is that the House
OF Representatives is the judge OF It's own
members. 50 is the Senate. Neither
House can Judge or question the qualif.
cations of the members OF the other. That
being so, even II the House acted foolish
ly, even II the Senate acted foo'ishly, the
court MUST say that the action of the
House is not renewable by the Senate and
that the action OF the Senate is not re-
viewable by the House. That, then, set
ties the status OF the two bodies, which, II
they meet, gives Democratic grand COM
nittee. That Is the political part OF the
question outside OF the Governors action.
Then comes the question as to whether
the Governor did right. He has no busi-
ness to question the act of the House or
the Senate. They are as independent OF
him as he Is OF them and as the Supreme
Court is OF all OF them. He cannot ques-
tion any position taken by either. The
constitution gives him the right to ad-
journ the Assembly when there Is a dis
agreement as TO the time " adjournment.
When the two houses have not disagreed
as to the time OF adjournment he must
sit still and wait until thst time comes.
That was not the case at Newport at all.
He had about as much right to adjourn
the Assembly as he now has to dissolve
the Supreme Court or the Town Council oi
New Shoreham. He did wrong and b,
knows 1t, the court knows IL and hi
masters know Il.
This being the case in brief, what cal
the court do but give an opinion favora
BILE to the Democratic sidei Admit tha
Honey and Owen and Wilson and Pgowi
were all wrong. What has that got TO d
with the fact that theHouse could do as
pleased and judge OF It's mem bers an
that the Senate had the right TO join o
not in grand csmmittee. The question Il
SHOULD the Senate join the House7 Ye
The court must decide that way.
Then comes the question: How ca
the court compel them TO come together
We don't know. II is none of the court
business. The other bodies must decic
that. The court can decide, but the e,
ecutive and legislative branches have n
right TO come together or not. That
their business and II is the business
the people 10 judge which right ar
which IL wrong at the next election,
otherwise, a. they see nt under the Law
