NO EXCUsE FOR THE GREAT AND
WISE.

NO E\CUSE FOR THE GREAT AND
WISE.
The Fusion Legislature OF 1895 dis
played lzmentable ignorance of the
laws In regard to the election Of
President and Vice President. This
ignorance cost the State exactly
s986.4O. The Democratic Legisla
tore of 1899 copied the mistake, and
the copy will now come about as
high as the MISUNDERSTANDING.
1t seems to rs that there is abso-
lutely no excuse for such blunder
on the part Of the great % and wise
~ who controlled the Legislature of
1899.
The Democratic press boasted that
the Legislature Was composed of the
ablest, brainiest and wisest lot OF pa
triots and statesmen that ever as
sembled before IN Legislative session
These same papers made the fur,h-
or boast that these wise solons were
no patriotic and SO devoted to the
material welfare of the State that
1t would be we'll nigh criminal to en-
tertain q thought of their wrong
doing, carelessness or neglect.
These aforesaid solons however,
appropriated $780, 600 more than any
Legislature in many years, and this
does not include the additional ap.
preparations for public schools and
the penitentiary.
Then, too, it should be remember.
cd that there were about Atty mem.
bers of the legal profession in that
body, yet the. Legislative mill grou nd
ont more unconstitutional laws than
ever before at any one session Of the
General Assembly.
II the error committed by the Flu.
sionists be "lamentable ignorance
then It is DAMNABLE ignorance on
the part Of the great % and wise q,
