The recent tie-up OF Watertown saloons
was effected by a deputy states attorney
and a deputy sheriff appointed by the
court. 1t must be a trifile CALLING TO the
duly elected officers of these positions to
have their inconpetency, or recreancy
to their official oath thus publicly ex-
posed to contempt. A man had better
not have office at all, than having it sac
ritice the public veal for the personal in

When the member Of years before
1899 heard Of tho new rules Of tho house,
by which he could not be admitted to
the floor without sending q card to the
speaker, he was filed with contempt
about the new tangled exclusiveness OF
the members who had succeeded him.
In his time any n was admitted to the
floor of the house and occupied seats OF
members. The rear Of the hall used to
be lined with lobbyists, and nobody
kicked.
But even the new rules Of 1880 were
mild compared with the red tape it now
requires to get on the floor, into one Of
the luxurious new chairs, which the
mob in the mems public gallery can
never hope to attain to. In the first
place, the visitor to the hall is stopped
by the sentinel at the outer gate and
told that he must send in q card to the
member he wishes to see. A card to be
filled out by him is furnished as fol-
lows:

This he must fill out with the name
Of his friend and take in person to the
