of his election, strictly on the ground
that Forney was Iris coinpotitor.

the Legislature with a majority of Ave
on joint ballot.. The vote. with a little
explanation will show clearly.
,It: is

Cameron
Forney
Foster

Early after the State Eleclion we
told our reader.; that thuagh Mr. Cam-
er m was not our. choice. we belirved
him to be the most available candidate
'who could be presented by the Re
publican party. lie was the .Only man
in out ranks who could command any
of the Democratic votes at all, and•
might doubtless get enough to ()Ser•
throw their small majority. Contrary
to expectation the Democratic party
itself split upon the rock of ambition—
Mr. Ftister, a much mire talented and
honorable man than Forney. refused
to go into caucus with his friends, and
as studiously and obstinately withheld
,their,votes in the only 'ballot given.
But the deed is done, and Mr. Buchan
an commences his administratioti at
the outset with a rebuke from his own
State. Next fall we hope to announce
another in the election of seme 'good
Republican in the Gubernatorial Chair
of the State. " '
