THE LEGISLATURE.

The legislature convened yesterday,
and last evening the capitol was gay
with many visitors who called to pay
their respects to the new governor at
the reception in the state house ten
dered his successor by Gov. Fuller.
There are some important changes in
the laws of the state, including a revi-
sion of the ballot law and the common
wealth is fortunate in having SO able a
body of men to do the work. We are
not troubled by fear Of corruption
among our legislators. Such thing
has never been even hinted, and the
laws passed at the biennial sessions be-
come such only after the mature deliber-
ations of both houses. That they are
careful in not passing antagonistic or
oppressive acts is shown by the few oc-
casions in which TIE governors have
exercised their veto powers. Working
in perfect harmony, the business is done
expeditiously and well, few weeks
only being required every other year to
keep the judicial system in excellent
working order. That the present
legislature will fully sustain the
reputation of the state there can
be no doubt when we look at it's
personnel and the men who are
at the head of affairs. They are the
most representative body of law makers
that ever assembled in the capitol of
any ystate-representing the people as
whole, as they were sent there by an
almost unanimous vote. 1t will be al
most like having the entire state vote
yea on every question submitted. Hair
pulling will be very rare feature of
this session, and mud singing an un-
known quantity. We invite the legis-
latures of our nearest neighbors, New
York and New Hampshire, to come
over and take few lessons from our
''farmer legislature on the subjects of
law making and etiquette. They will
find efficient teachers.

This is just as good time as any fol
the people to settle accounts with David
B. Hill. He is the Mephistopheles
who set in motion all the series of dew
iltries from the executive office imme
diaSely before and after Flowers acces-
sioa to the governorship. He is hand
in glove with Croker and Gilroy and
all the disreputable gang of Tammany
boodlers. He has done more to de-
bauch the politics of New York state
than any other man who ever held a
state office in it. And, like Brecken-
ridge in Kentucky, he now wants to be
"vindicated." Unless all signs fail, he
will be, in just about the same way as
Breckenridge was.-Syracuse Post.

tection's sake. This will influence the
negro vote, for certainly, having made
a break from old lines and ways, the
planters will endeavor to pole as large a
vote as possible and the colored man
will be duly recognized. "rhe Out
look" says, "this movement is the EN-
tering of a wedge which promises to
break up the solid South and to give
us party divisions not formed on race
and color line. Those in the south
who believe in tariffs or bounties for
the purpose of protecting or promoting
American industries belong in the Re-
publican party and honor requires that
they should identify themselves with
that party and work openly and above
board for its political principles"
Then again the war between China
and Japan is worthy of considerable
attention. Japan is striking straight
at the mark and having scored two
great victories has won the respect of
the world in short order. The recent
naval engagement between the Chinese
and Japanese fleets was one of the
fiercest of modern times. The Japanese
are better leaders; their soldiers and
sailors are better drilled; and in every
way superior in arms to the Chinese.
Possibly the table may be turned but it
does not now seem probable. The Jap
anese are making an aggressive cam
paign. 1t is said by correspondent to
the London Graphic, who was an eye
witness of the great sea fight, that the
slaughter on the Chinese war ship
Chen-4uen was awful and that could
the European rulers have seen her deck
they would have foresworn war hence
forth and forever.

WAYSlDE TALK.

The political situation in New York
is particularly interesting and the couE-
try at large will watch proceedings with
more than ordinary care. The Repub-
licans have in Levi P. Morton very
strong man and it is confidently expect
ed by well informed persons that he
will be elected governor by an over
whelming majority. The interesting
part of the situation will be in watch
ing HILL who magnanimously- takes
the Democratic nomination. 1t will be
rememba red that Hill was governor
when elected to the United States SEN
ate and that he held both offices during
his pIeaAure. Now he seems to think
it would be about the thing to do to be-
come governor again, this time senator
governor. No one of course knows just
what Hill has in mind; he plays with
politics as school boy does with slick
knife. and he is sure of something al
ways. 1t is thought by some that in
case of an election he would decline to
serve and allow the lieutenant governor
to become governor. Hill is equal to
most any emergency but this time he
believes he will fail to connect. Demo-
Gratis who formerly have hungered for
gubernatorial pie could not be found
when called upon this year to satisfy
their ambition. Hill alone dares to ac-
cept th8 nomination and 1t Is very
doubtful if he would if he could not do
it behind a senatorial shield.

vows that he will make no more eXper-
iments in humor on his English friends.
He relates how to relieve the strain of
the centreboard incident he advanced

Bombastes Fustiani Sovereign must
have seen great light. AT recent
labor meeting he is reported as saying
that he was decidedly opposed to
strikes. II can imagine that an emer-
gancy might arise that would justify a
strike; but generally speaking, nothing
more than a temporary victory can pos
sjbly be achieved in this way at best.
They make the breach wider between
capital and labor, and no matter which
side is worsted, it is sore over its defeat
and will retaliate with vengeance al
the first opportunity. Another thing, y
he said, "all strikes are illegal, and all
strikers are criminals. Wecannot hope
to accomplish much by strikes" Let
us hope that his conversion will prove
as permanent as it was sudden.

j. r. Hodson Wants Pay for the Death
Of His Mare.
J. R. Hodson has sued G. G. Taft for
$1,000 damages for the death of the trot-
ting mare Kate Bender. This sum, the
plaintiff says, represents the value Of the
animal.
The complaint alleges that the mare
was placed in the hands of the defendant
who was to be REIN bursed for her care
and training, and that he was not to let
her run with other horses; that he did so,
and the mare received kick that uiti-
mately caused her death. Hence the
suit.
