It is a good thing that the people of | this commonwealth are not compelled | to witness the proceedings of the state | legislature. They might lose their confidence in the laws; they would | certainly lose their respect for the law- makers. The confusion of an ordina- ry legislative session surprises and dis- | gusts the citizen who has formed an | ideal conception of dignity and deco- | rum which a sight of the reality rude- | ly dispels. The had a visit the other | day from a worthy citizen who had oc- | casion to journey to the state capital recently, and while there took advan- tage of the look in on the house, which was in session. He was not favorably impressed. He said the | confusion was great, the floor of the house crowded by lobbyists who add- ed to the confusion, the conduct of the members disgraceful. One member | was rather badly hurt book thrown at him by a sportive colleague. Paper balls were flying in all direc The presiding officer reminded he sat through rowdyism of Tribune occasion to by a tions. our friend of a mummy; it all oblivious to the members. We have sometimes wondered what would happen if the house were ever to get a speaker who would calmly in- form the lobbyists that they must keep out of the room; who would notify the members that they must retain their seats and keep order, and who would enforce his decision by appealing to the officers of the law, if to preserve order, dragging out the disor- derly. Such a would create some comment and a good deal of citement, but it would probably be fol- lowed by a salutary and much needed reform. So speaks the Altoona 7ri- bune, a Republican.

A PARTY WITHOUT A POLICY Last fall the voters gave tepublican majorities in of the country. Doubtless there was a vague expectation that changes of administration would bring beneficent results; but we look in vain for the proof of betterment. In Penn- sylvania there seems to be no sort of agreement except upon the enlarge ment of the number of office-holders. The bosses are at daggers’ points over the distribution of spoil, over the sil- ver question, and over the prospective control of the State Legislature. In New York there is a very similar con- dition. The effort to improve munici- | pal administration in New York city is steadily thwarted by the organized opposition of powerful Republican leaders. The long and shameful strug- | gle over the Delaware Senatorship por- | trays the same indifference to the pub- | lic welfare, the same insatiate appe- | tite for place and a sordid deference to moneyed influence, There can be no doubt that when | Congress shall assemble there will be | an illustration on a larger scale of the | inability of the Grand Old Party jo bring its clashing and disorderly ele- | ments together for any definite line of | policy except opposition to whatever | recommendation may be made by the Democratic Executive. The tariff question having been temporarily shelved, the Republican leaders find themselves by reason of their past rec- ord unable and afraid to declare for honest money. The party will have to depend for an issue and a candidate upon the chance determination of events, The victory of 1804, instead of assuring a triumph in 1806, has only demonstrated anew the fact that with the end of the civil war and the recon- struction that followed the close of hos tilities there was an end of the useful- ness of the Republican aggregation.
