In closing this friendly discussion the
Journal desires to add that nothing has
been further from it's purpose than to
impugn the motives of Mr.. Watterson

history or the memory of Mr.. Lincoln.

that. The Journals first impression that

The Constitution says that no bill
shall be presented to the Governor
within two days next previous to the
final adjournment of the General AS

fore the final adjournment.

Last summer when Governor Matthews
was trying to suppress the riots and
enforce the law the Journal gave him
it's earnest support, while the organs
of his own party were opposing his
course. The Journal then thought he
had sunk the partisan in the patriot;
that as Governor he would uphold the
law and enforce it. The Journal is sor-
ry that it was deceived. and that he is
still the ward politician. During the
present session of the Legislature, as
soon as the bill was passed to relieve
his Endorsements for money borrowed he
took up the old banner of Democratic
partisanship. Some of his official con-
duct within the past few days is without
excuse or pailiation. In his message
upon the fee and salary bill he forgets
that the Legislature is an independent
department of the State, drops back into
the pedagcgue and lectures the members
as though they were an unruly set of
school children and not BODIES composed
of men his equal in every character of
intelligence and ability. He knew on
Saturday that he would veto the State
house custodian bill. and he knew that
the Constitution of the State, which he
had sworn to support, gave the Legisla-
ture the right to pass it over his veto.
Yet he did not return it until Monday
midnight, when he knew that it would
be physical impossibility for the Legis-
lature to exercise the power given it by
the Constitution. His acts and delays
brought on the disgracefuI scenes of
that night and he is responsible for
what followed. We look again at the
statue which we last summer thought
was marble. and we find it simply mud

The riot in New Orleans yesterday
was one of the most disgraceful that
has ever occurred in that city of riots.

them out of the city. The police seem

FEE AND SALARY BILL.

Senate Committee still Holding IT.
Governor Will Use the Veto.
Not a few members of the House are in
dignant at what they consider the hardness
of the Senate in considering important bills.
The clerks of the House say the lower
branch sends many more bills to the Senate
than come from that body. Night sessions
have been the rule In the House. while the
Senate usually adjourns at a comparatively
early hour in the day.
The important fee and salary bill mas been
tied I'D in Senate committee since FEB.
%, over a week ago. and 1t now comes,
from a reliable source, that the Governor
will veto the bill when it comes to him, on
the alleged ground that Democratic coun-
ties are Disseminated against. Unless the
Senate passes the bill before Thursday
night 1t is apt to never become a law, and,
as the House bill correcting the 1891 act
has not received the consideration of the
Senate, there is remote possibility or the
Senate stigmatizing the Republican party
by reviving the old fee law. Some OF the

Too Many Insinuations as to the
Records of Votes In the House.
The jackson county-seat bill, permitting a
vote for the removal of the seat from
Brownstown to Seymour, had narrow
escape from death yesterday. 1t was an
obstreperous bill and had eluded a constitu-
tionaI majority on the day before, and yes
terday only missed it by one vote. This
made the issue one of great interest and
was the cause of i'll feeling. Mr.. Moore,
who has an impulsive way that carries him
further along in his zeal than is agreeable
to the opposition, took the floor and de-
manded a notification of the vote. The af-
firmative lost three votes and gained
one, the Chair refusing to recognize his
pair with an absent member, pairing being
strictly against the rules Then the vote
stood 81 ayes, which passed the bill, and

Mr.. Moore's reply was something ques-

Brown left his desk and started down the
aisle with manifest indignation. Mr.. Rob-
inson stepped in and blocked the Clerk s
way, and whispered something which
caused him to return to the desk, but still
angry. The clerks complain that Mr.
