Ike Ohie Revolution.
An Interesting case Is about coming le a
crisis in Ohie. It is reported, and seems
te be currently believed, tluU the Demo
cratic state senators will absent themselves
from the meeting of their legislative body
se as te break the quorum and prevent
business, rather than allow the Republi
cans te secure the controlling majority in
the Senate by the) high-handed means they
propose te that end. It will be remera.
bared that the four Democratic senators
from Cincinnati were returned as elected.
They were necessary te give their party a.
majority , but in Ohie, a3 In Pennsylva
nia, the lieu tenant governor is the presiding
officer of the Senate; he is a Republican and
apparently is ready te make, any kind
of a decision for the advantage of
his party. There are, we believe, 37
senators in all, 17 undisputed Republicans,
10 undisputed Democrats and the 4 con
tested seats. The Democrats holding the
certificates te the latter are sitting mem-
bers,and while the right of auy one te vote
en his own case is net te be maintained,
the Republicans go much further aud dis
pute the right et any of the contested
members te vote en any of the ether three,
case3 than his own ; If this position, which
their lieutenant governor takes, is main
tained they have enough votes te cast out
the four Democrats and let in the four
Republicans ; and they mean te de it.
In behalf of their novel claim te jire
vent men whose seats are contested from
voting en ether contests tlian their own,
they allege that the four Cincinnati mem
bers are all elected en one ticket and hence
their cases are Identical ; the issue is the
same and the interest of each is like.
There is shadow in this, net substance.
The right of a sitting member te vote en
all questions except these which imme
diately affect his title te his own particu
lar ssat is recognized by every parliamen
tary precedent; and the peculiar circum
stances of the Ohie case de net chabge
this. It may be and it is altogether likely
the merits et the Cincinnati cases are
identical; if the Democrats honestly
elected auy of their senatorial ticket there,
they irebably elected all ; and the sanie is
true of the ether side. Rut it could easily
hapiien. otherwise; and no temjerary or
incidental conditions should be allowed
te change a bread, general princijile. The
contested senators are apt te vote in ac
cordance with their individual and p.trty
interests ; but se are the uncontested mem
bers of their body Democrats for Demo
crats, Republicans for Republicans. The
right of any three of the Cincinnati mem
bers te vote en the case of the ether one is
tee plain in law le be gainsaid.
If new, under these circumstances, the
lieutenant governor should adept the rev
olutionary course of arbitrarily deciding
these senators net entitled to'vete, obvi
ously it will be meet te resist him with the
revolutionary device of breaking the quo
rum. The stake iu this matter is the re-apportionment
of the congressional districts
of the state. Without control of the sen
ate the Republicans cannot effect the ger
rymander they have in view; and the pur
pose they cherish does net enhance the
.character of the means by which they seek
te achieve it.
1'erernieu Church Union.
A movement that will be watched with
interest by these who have faith in and
concern for the union of the many Protes Pretes
tant denominations, is involved In the
preposition te unite the "Dutch" and
" German " Reformed churches the legal
utics or. .winch are new respectively "The
Reformed church in North America" and
" The Reformed chuich of United States."
They have se much in common of origin,
history, doctrine and church government :
and the harmonious adjustment of their
slight differences is believed te be se easy
et accomplishment that a geed many
members of either church have been in
spired with the Iieikj that their
union can be realized. The practi
cal movement te this end is in the
hands of the Reformed ministerial asso
ciation of Phlladeljihia, comjtesed of the
ministers of the Dutch and German Re
formed churches in Phlladeljihia andvl
cinity ; and its members have agreed upon
a basis of union which takes into account
the peculiarities common te both churches,
their identity of name, essential unity of
doctrine both being Calvinlstic in origin,
with the Heidelberg catechism as a com
mon symbol their similitude of churcli
government, and the iutenvctviiigs of
their denominational history here and
abroad. These points of ideutlty are
very marked compared with the slight dif
ferences of faith and methods, and this
committee seems te have liad no trouble in
agreeing iijwn a common name, symbol of
faith aud slgniQcance et sacraments for
the united church te adept.
Fer some time In the quarterly review of
the (German) Reformed church the Dutch
Reformed ministers have had hearing and
there lias been a growing intimacy of late
years. The Mcssewjcr is net at all sanguine
that the result arrived at by the Philadel-
iihkt union will be immediately accetu
piisneu, iBeugu it ueneves mere are
force operating which will very likely
briaf about the result eventually," The
Christian Inttlliyenctr, organ of the Dutch
.efcurefc, treats the subject quite curtly,
v dwo-tieg te It a brief paragraph and con cen
eta'lfag that " certain churches are better
lrtthan united."' In this attitude it

no doubt 'oppose the" Plilliulcliililit pliin
ostensibly en the ground that it remands
tliclr cherished canons of Pert te an
Inferior place In the bails of denomina
tional union.
The subject is one of local lulnest licit,
outsttle of the church members iirteluil,
because one of the turtles te the jireiMjN.il
union, the (Herman) Hefeimeil church, has
its central educational Institutions iu 1-an-castcr,Mid
they nilfiht be slrviiBlhencd were
a union effected. The college of the ether
church is Itntgers, at New IJninswlck, X.
J., and were the resources of the two Insti
tutions combined it would form a very suii
stantlal endowment. Such a coinjuehen ceinjuehen coinjuehen
sive movement is net likely te Im consum
mated within Ihe jiresent generation, how hew
ever desirable it may seem te U'.
The Only "Just Sjstem."
"We quite agree, with tlm Wllkeskirre
Union teadc r that if the state is te keep
up its habit of lavish appropriations te pri pri
vate charities, they should be made upon
some fairer basis as te the steral sections
than that upon which such appropriations
have heretofore Iven voted. The Lmdcr
recalls that Mr. Suedgnibs was chairman
of the committee en appropriations hist
session ; Mr.Snedgrassis of Pittsburg and
Pittsburg and its vicinity get a geed deal
mere than its fairshaie of the money that
was voted. And the Lcadtr concludes,
" the state should le as liberal te its benev
olent aud charitable associations and in
stitutions as it can afford te lie, but it
should net be permitted te pass that limit,
and what it gives should be given accottl accettl accottl
ing(te some carefully prepared general aud
just system."
As long as the rule prevails for the legis
lature te make grants te private charities
at Its owndiscretien, thelog-xelling faunit
ism aud lavishness et the just will con
tinue tit Ilarrisburg. The only proper
system is for jirivate charities te support
themselves and the state te coutrel its own.
The mixed plan Is a bad one. All the in
stitutions actually necessary te the sup
port of the peer aud sick and otherwise
afllicted ought te be keit up by the state
or counties; the sujieilliieiis ones, erected
te gratify private faucies or ilnd soft
places for ellicial favorites ought te lan
guish; and thepr.tisewurthy pi irate chari
ties, the result of individual lienefnctien,
had better be left te the exclusive support
and control of their jirepriclurs. This is
the only general plau that willjuevean
entirely " just system. "

"Hush! hush! hush!" Involuntarily the

lently, stroking her hair and shoulders with
exquisite loving motions, as vvomen de te
women of their own sort when sorrow is
upon them.
' We quarrelled," crled Kllen Jane Salt,
throwing out her arms, and letting them
drop heavily at her side "we quarrelled,

Helen Hltter drew the child into her free
