THE SENATE AND THE GOVERNOR

We read with great care and real
satisfaction the first message of Gov.
Ansel to the legislature. 1t was a
sensible transparent all round good
paper.
We have watched closely the pro-
ceedings of the legislature. 1t very
early developed that majority of
the senate and some of the lower
house were not of the mind of the
governor. Before the session closed
it was clear that the senate was an
tagonizing the governor and annoy
ing him in every way they could.
The same body was even more
antagonistic to the attorney general, l.,
and especially SO in his efforts in
connection with the dispensary COM
mission. As we view the situation
now it seems to us clear that either
Ansel and Lyon are engaged in a
plot to injure some good men or we
had some very bad men in the last
session of the senate.
Our own opinion is that Ansel
and Lyon are all right and if the
latter could learn little more self
control. We could not find any
better men for their places, and we
heartily wish them success in their
work. Indeed their work is our
work, every good citizen s work, and
we ought all to feel bound to aid
them in every way possible.
Long live Gov. Ansel and Gen'l.
Lyon.

Between the disloyalty Of the SEN
ate and a position of the press Of
the state Governor Ansel and Attor-
ney General Lyon are having to
fight under great disadvantage. So
far as we can discern the senate is
against the administration because
they are in sympathy with the for
mer officials of the dispensary or are
paid by the whiskey dealers, and
the press is disloyal partly from
force of habit, and partly from pre-
iudice against the dispensary and its
authors. They seem willing to see
the state humiliated in order to
humiliate the dispensary crowd.

must remember that we cried shades

the dispensary from the first. But
it is not a question of the right or
wrong of the dispensary but of Judge
Pritchard's g right to step in and take
charge of the funds the state made
out of it. He would have just as
much right to take charge of the
crops made on the state farms, il he
chose to say the state had no right
