BURTON CASE EMBARRASSING
Resignation Wouid Take Senate Dat
Of n Prcdicament.

Senator Burton's second conviction
by the United States court at St Louis
has raised AGAIN the somewhat inter
esting question as 10 what the senate
will do In his Ease. A companion case
with the Kansas senator Is that Of Sem
ator Mitchell. q Oregon. who also has
been convicted Of illegal acts and sen-
fenced to serve &x months In hail and
pay = fine.
senator Mitchell has appealed his
case and Is awaiting a decision. 1t Is
presumed hat Senator Burton also
will take an appea again. his rcces;t
trial having been the result of n sue
cessful appeal from conviction is the
same court.
Naturally. Senators are disinctined
to discuss either the status OF it's con-
victed members or the probable course
h senate would take should IL be
come necessary for the body formally
and officially to act on, their cases. Il
Is commended by several that
the proper course for Burton and
Mitchell to pursue would be to resign
their seats so as to save further en-
barrassment all around. A few others
say they do not blame the convicted
senators for not r~esigning. because to
resign might still further prejudice
their cases and that until the last pro-
cesses of the Law have been exhausted
by the convicted men TO establish their
innocence they should feel privileged
to retain their seats in the senate.
Both men. by the way. are
their salaries and peruuisites regularly
from h secretary OF the senate. who.
of course. will continue to authorize
the payments until the names of Bur-
ton and Mitchell shall have been eras-
ed from the roll. In the event that
one or both of them succeed in clear
ing themselves in the courts on final
trial before their respective terms ex-
pire. which will be March 3. 1867.
they probably would at least nominal
ly resume their seats. Should either
or both of them be compelled to go to
prison before the of their
terms. it is assured that they would
send their designations to the govern
ors of their states, and thus relieve the
| senate entirely Of all responsibility for
| dealing with them.
This it is probable that their cases
| never will come I'D before the senate

| Neither branch of congress has eve
