THE kENrucKY STRUGGLE.

The senatorial election in the Ken
lucky legislature is certainly approach
ing the acute stage, and if the matter
is settled without bloodshed, it may be
accounted a mercy. Yesterday the
work of unseating members began. 1t
win be remembered that the lower
house is Republican while the senate
is Democratic To the threat to unseat
Democrats in the house the senate has
declared its intention to Unseat Re-
publicans in the senate. Both threats
were made good yesterday. The house
unseated Kaufman, Notwithstanding
the man who contested his seat-Dun-
lap-refused to further prosecute his
contest 1t was held, however, by the
speaker, that while it was competent
for him to do so before the case had
been prosecuted to the end, it was not
proper for him to withdraw, and the
house by a vote of 40 to 46 voted to
unseat the Democrat in favor of the
Republican. Whereupon, and true TO
their word, the Democrats in the sem
ate in retaliation promptly unseated
two Republican senators. A ballot
was afterwards taken in joint session.
but as the Republicans refrained from
voting, there was no quorum, and the
conjoint session for the day adjourned
amidst the most intense excitement.
The most probable outcome of the af-
fair will be that there will be no cleo
ton of a senator from Kentucky. And
vet the attempts to elect a senator in
that state win not he in vain; for in
years to come, when the people of the
United States shall have abandoned
their present method of electing United
States senators, the struggle in the
Kentucky legislature in the year of
grace 1896 will be pointed to as one
of the object lessons which persuaded
the people to change their method of
electing senators.

Suggests itself to everyones mind is,
There is a city attorney, aith an as
sistant who is paid some four thou
sand dollars a year, and why the nee
essity for drawing on the contingent
fund to pay for legal advice? Then
there naturally follows this other ques-
ton. if the city attorney is not com
petent. why was he appointed? And
if he is competent. what is the neces-
sity for using $500 of the public money
to pay for legal advice? And this
within two months of the advent of
the present city administration.
The handling of a contingent fund
by public officer, he alone deciding
when and for what to use it, is a very
delicate matter, one very liable to mis-
construction by the public, and there
fore demanding that all accounting for
it shall be so plain that he who runs
may read. Not only must there be no
faint of suspicion, but every precau-
ton should be taken that there can be
none. Paying out $500 for legal advice,
the voucher failing to state to whom
it was paid, is neglecting this precau-

ORIGIN OF REVENUE BuIs.

4 correspondent asks if the national
house of representatives. under the
constitution, holds the exclusive right
to originate revenue measures for the
maintenance of the government. The
answer is, yes; section seven of article
one of the constitution provides that
"alI bills for raising revenue shall
originate In the house of representa-
tives; but the senate may propose or
concur with amendments as in other
bills" Judge Story remarks on this
section that it had its origin in the
known rule of the British parliament
that all money bills shall originate in
the house of commons. The
general reason assigned for this privi-
lege in that kingdom is that all taxes
and supplies raised upon the people,
should originate with their immediate
But in truth it was
intended by the popular branch of the
legislature by this course to acquire
a permanent Importance in the govern
ment. and to be able to counterpoise
the influence Of the house of lords a
body having hereditary rights and
dignity OF course the same reason
does not apply in our government, or
at least with the same force, still it
must be confessed that in the balanc-
ing of power of legislative authority
the two houses this matter
Of originating bills for raising revenue
was a very important affair; and
when the smaller states insisted upon
having equal representation in the
senate, the larger states insisted that
he right to originate bills of revenue
should be confined to the house of
where the representa-
ion of the people and all the varied I
ocalities and interests of the country
we're more equitably represented than
n the senate where the states as such,
lot the people, were represented.

it is in the right direction Any people

MAKE 4 CHANGE.

In the land bill which passed the
house of representatives the other day
we think a mistake was made. 1t
consists in making the governor the
secretary of state and attorney general
the land board. We are Of opinion that
such is the multitude Of duties already
loaded upon those officers of the state
that they cannot possibly do efficient
work in looking after the interests of
the state in land matters. Such will
be the volume of work connected with
that business that it may well be ex-
pected for some years to engross the
attention of three good and efficient
men. If the three officers above named
are made the board, or even made the
head of it, the public service in respect
to land matters is bound to suffer
more or less in consequence thereof,
for subordinates upon whom direct re-
sponsibllity does not rest will never
do the work as will that man upon
whom the said responsibility is placed.
We hope before the measure becomes a
law the legislature viii convince itself
that it will be best to place the duty
of locating and disposing of the state
lands upon a. board of men who will
make that their especial business, and
will not celegate it to men who, what
ever their ability, cannot possibly de-
vote the attention to it that the impor-
lance Of the business demands.

rHE MAYORS CONTINGENT FUND.

Mayor Glendinning has a contingent
fund which is as much q part of the
city's resources as anything else. AS
its name indicates, it is a fund to be
drawn upon only on extraordinary oc-
casions, and when drawn upon there
should be voucher attached to show
for what purpose the money was used.
Since mis- induction into Office the
mayor has used of this fund s3.l64.65.
That 1t can all be accounted for. we
do not doubt, and that it should we
know. The account shows that the
mayor has drawn 5000 in favor of him
self. and that it was used for legal
advice. That is all the information
about the matter obtainable. 1t is
not stated to whom it was paid. what
the case or question was recurring

like, and the mayor cannot but know
it, for his business experience is ex-
tensive. 1t is the right of the taxpav-
ers of this city TO know to whom every
dollar of its money is paid and for
what purpose. That his honor can and
will account for all city funds coming
into and passing through his hands.
no one doubts.
But in the matter of this $500 paid
out for legal advice, the question thai

TO WHAT BASE USES.

This is hard year for legisIatures.
4 They have not been regarded with
favor by the people. They have come
to be mistrusted and almost regarded
as a menace of evil rather Khan a har-
binger of good. Our own legislature
has been made to feel the mistrust OF
the people by the complaints that have
come up against their hardness in
some things and their meddlesoneness
in others. Nor has the national legis-
lature, the congress OF the United
States. escaped the censure of the peo-
pie From the first day it assembled
it has been advised to pass the appro-
priation bills, adjourn, and go home.
But now comes "the most unkindest
cut of all,' in a suggestion from the
Baltimore Sun. Speaking recently to
the resolution about granting bellig-
erent rights to Cuba, Senator Hawley
took occasion to point out not only
the probability of such a course in
volving us in war with Spain. but
also with a coalition of European ma
lions, and proceeded to show how ILL
prepared the country was for such an
engagement. Someone had boosted
that we could put zen millions of men
in the field on occasion, but in the
opinion Of Senator Hawley these would
not be available against the fleets of
the European enemy. as, if the men were
marched down on the sands of New
Jersey, they would merely become food
for the big guns of the enemy's ships.
But" adds the senator, mules could
be much better used for stopping bull
let's" Whereupon the Sun, taking up
the matter, cruelty adds:
1t might also be remarked that al
though mules are animals of limited
Intelligence, they could probably be
used to better advantage as legislators,
If we may judge of the wisdom and
discretion of congress by the eagernesS
With which ii seems willing to provoke
a conflict with the powers of Europe at
q time when we have neither an ade-
quate navy nor Notifications TO protect
our coast cities. The mules might be
worth something for coast defenses,
but if any animals are TO be Slaugh- /
tered for such purposes, it seems that
the bloodthirsty jingoes of congress
who are anxious to bring on trouble
ought to be utilized in the defense OF
their country, whose welfare they nave |
so rashly jeopardized at regular inter- |
walls during the past few months. Let |
us save the mules, for they are really I
and let congress throw itself |
into the breach and serve as a fortifi-
cation on the Jersey sands when the /
enemy's ships are sighted.
To what base uses may even legis- |
lators return! Imperious solons clad in
togas bright; thrust to the front to
take the place of mules in fight Alas.
