Not Patty affair.

1t is claimed that when the Gov
ernor appointed Democrat on the
Board OF Health, he did go after
consultation with certain leading
Republicans and with the idea of
giving Democrats certain resogni-
ton in publie affairs and to have
them shoulder certain of the re.
sponsibilities, for which we are
thankful, But when it is asserted
that the Democratic party will be
held, to certain extent, account
able for whatever action any in
dividual Democrat May do in public
affairs, alter being appointed, we
hold that that is not justified, as the
party was not in any way consulted
either by the Governor or by those
appointed.The Democratic party will
attend to its own affairs without it
being made out that it is implicated
ia any way because a few have rsseiv-
ed Executive recognition. No such
treatment can be held to placate
the party.

cess eman ated from the eosrt OF o
Judge known to be cut Of favor with

And further, Judge Gear says
that "never before in this Territory
'..''. has any Governor Of this
Territory refused to comply with a
subpoena, and this question has not
therefore arisen here. He certainly
is not excepted by the terms OF the
statute which makes subpoena
obligatory upon the parties actually
served.'" And there Judge Gear is
again right, who has not, in our
humble way of thinking, taken
any "back water" as plaeatsd in the
morniRg aggressor. 1t is the Gov
ernor's love of showing fight that
has made this an issue between him
self, as the Chief Executive, and a
branch of the Judiciary, who, of all
men Of exaetitude in this Territory,
should have boen the frat to com.
ply. But the Governor saw fit to
be pugnacious and has done so uI
to the present. "It's an ill wind
