THE LEGISLATURE.

The LEGISLATURE which meets at Albany to-
div will for the sake of convenience be called
a Republican Legislature The Republican Sen
ators. holding over to the number Of thrty-five
out of total membership Of fifty, escaped the
general wreck in which for purposes OF his own
Thomas c. Plat involved the party IN THIS
State In the Assembly the Democrats nave
Just doubled their number leaving the Repub-
leans at the most with precarious majority
Of ten, which two members OF Independent
principles will reduce whenever they see nj 10
eght-or to a margin Of only two votes ABOVE
the number required to pass bill-and whlch
some other members OF Independent procllvi-
ties are likely at any time to convert into
minority 1t Is now certain that MI Platt
will save his Speakership, electing Mr.. OGrady
10 succeed himself, and otherwise organize the
Assembly, II not exactly to his liking, IN sucn
manner as to control the machinery and
with the help Of Tammany at critical mo-
ments. to legislate for the Empire State But
there is a difficult and humiliating task be-
fore the Master" who year ago felt no need
OF consulting the Judgment or wishes OF any
one else or Of wandering to the decent sent-
ment of the State He will find no pleasure In
being compelled at every turn to calculate the
minor point In preference TO calling on Croker
for assistance.
There are not a few Republican members OF
the Assembly to whom we do not attribute any
conscious intention Of betraying their consht-
uents and making their party share the odium
which their party organization has incurred.
And we confidently believe also that some OF
these will not merely chafe and complain, as
No., ,+n1v roft 20 10 In
IN action which they know to be outrageous.
How far they will be able to restrict the plans
of the Platt-Croker alliance so clearly revealed
in the last campaign and so conclusively con-
frmed in the municipal appointments or the
last few DAYS remains to be seen. With so
large Tammany contingent TO draw on in
emergencies there may be little chance OF de
feating any scheme on which the partners nave
set their hearts; but it will probably be pos
sible to prevent some intended mischief, while
there will certainly be opportunities to show
that members elected as Republicans are faith
full TO Republican principles.
The near future Of the party In this State Will
depend to no slight extent upon the use made
IF these opportunities. 1t will be the privilege
Of a resolute minority Of Republicans in the
LEGISLATURE 10 represent that true character
which belongs to the party and which was
honorably INDICATED last November in the
stern rebuke administered to treacherous lead
ers. In 80 doing they will not merely preserve
their own integrity and self-respect, but will
restore to the party in greater or less degree
according to their number and fidelity the pub
lie confidence which to some extent It has lost
and deserved to lose through its tolerance of
q corrupt machine.

OPPOSITION THAT DID NOT OPPOSE.

Assembyman Davis yesterday said he was
"opposed TO one-man rule as exemplned IN
"Mr. Plat, and could not vote for such rep
"resentatve Of the machine as Mr.. Ot'rady
sis known to be-" Then he took exactly the
one step necessary to make Mr.. OGradys elec-
ton certain 1t was in the power OF himself,
Mr.. Tiffany and their fellow -Assemblymen pro-
Tossing Independence and opposition to the ma
chine 10 make Mr. O'Grady's election impossible
and compel Mr. Plat to agree 10 Speaker
who would respect Independent sentiment In
stead of doing So they deliberately enrolled
themselves in n body already ordered to vote
for O'Grady, all the while protesting that thcy
could not vote for OGrady.
These young mems weak surrender recalls
the story of General Grants youthful inno-
cence which he tells on himself in his autoblog-
raphy. Being sent 10y his father to purchase
n horse he confidcd to the owner the fact that
he was TO offer him one sum, but ihat II that
was not accepted he was TO offer higher
price.
These Assemblymen being sent TO Albany by
their constituents as they themselves admit,
10 oppose Platts rule and vote against OGrady,
say 10 Mr. Platt I'VE are opposed TO MT.
"OGrady. but If you'll send somebody around
ito n caucus to tell us TO vote for him well do
at" Mr.. Plat accordingly does this, and In
twlnkling the anti-O'Grady men are stanch
O'Grady men. They have conscientious scru-
pies against voting for him. but they cannot
help that They are under orders from eau
GUS They went there 10 take orders to dlsobey
their conscience didn't they? Yes but
But what? Let Us not inquire too closely.
The machine Is powerful. Good committee
places with ease are better than even sue
cessful fight that brings only moral rewards.
When the issue is close the man with an indie
pendent constituency is more sought after than
the machine man who does not have to be con
vcrted When the machine has so much AZ
stake no wonder 1t has n powerful missionary
influence on the doubtful. At such times indie
pendence Is q stock In trade. But to save them
selves disappointment these young men should
not be deluded into thinking that the machine

1t turned out to be stroke OF good policy
The Republicans carried the State by over
10000 majority, though their vote fell OF per

gestive hint rs to the real sentiment OF the
voters OF the whole State upon the Sunday law
that the next Legislature took up the excise
question and enacted the Raines law. The op-
Grafton Of that law in the production of revenue
and reducing the number OF unnecessary sa-
looms and barrooms has been satisfactory TO
majority Of the voters Of the State The disas-
ters of last November were due not to the
Raines law but TO other causes, which Plat and
Quigg pretend not TO see, but which are patent to
everybody else They are only trying to divert
attention from the actual facts when they set
on foot a scheme to regain the losses which
their fatuous folly has brought upon the party.
That scheme is practically to repeal the Sunday
law, so that rim-selng may be carried on open
ly seven days In the week. That goes further
than even the Democratic party with all its
proclivites to looseness and license, ever dared
venture And these ridiculous leaders seem TO

outdo the Democratic party in bidding for the

EXPORT DUTY on NICKEL ORE WANTED

Toronto, Ont. Jan. 4-There is a strong move
men foot in this city which Will presently take
practical FORM in favor of export duty nickel
and nickel matter. The ontario Government is
anxious that something should be done in the direc-
ton of providing work for Canadians. but It has no
means OF meeting the difficulty, as It has In the
matter OF the Joys. The machinery OF placing
export duty nickel ore lies by statute in the
Dominion Government. and Il is probable that
pressure will be brought to bear that Govern
ment TO use the powers conferred upon IT,
