Ilogors Is Declared the I.egn1 President of tho Sennto Justice Ahbett Will Pre sent n Dissenting Opinion. Tiibnton', March 32. Tlio supremo conrt chnmber wns thronu;oil yosterilay to liear tlio court's decision In the M'imtorlnl cno. Many nivtiibers of tlm lefthlaturo nud n, big nrrny of tlio lending politicians of both pnrtles were present. Chief Justice llcas ley rend the opinion. Tlio first point in the controversy, whether tlio court had jurisdiction in tho case, urns decided In tho nlllrnintivo. Tlio chief lust co sa d the de cision whether the regulations of tho con stitution hnvn been violated rests exclu sively with tho judicial department of tho state. Tho court then trented tho legal nspects of the ense. end comlnir to a consideration of tho question whether tho sennto is a continuous hodv.heldthnt thero wns noth ing in the constitution of Now Jersey to , tlenno tlio lire of tho stnte sennto. Tho construction put upon the clause In the i federal constitution, which mnkes tlio . United Stntes seunten perpetual orgnnlzn- tlon, did not npply to tho clnuso of tho ! New Jersey constitution. lly thu decision tho Ilepubllcnu sennto! becomes the legal legislative body. I Tho chief justice held further tbnt the i contention thnt tho minority could ruleln a legislative body wns antagonistic to tho langungo nnd spirit of tho constitution ' nnd In violation of tho doctrine tbnt the ' will of the ninjority shall bo supreme. Tlio constitution lixes a time for tho nnnunl meeting of tho legislnturo. This would bo n superfluous provision If tho sennte wero nn everlnstlug body. Tho chief justice next brushed aside tho contention that the hold over senators held the exclusive and absolute power to pass upon tho credentials of tho newly elected senators. This wns tho first tlmo since the ndoption of theconstltutionthat such n claim has been made. It whs novel, but groundless. Tho ancient and con tinued prnctlco hns been to reorganize tho senate yenrly, nnd tho pretension that ' under color of the constitution or tho law any senntor holding credentials could bo deprived of his bent Is an utter fallacy. The term of the senate expires annually, the snmo ns the house of assembly. Tho court In conclusion held thnt tho title of Itohert Adrian, president of tho Democratic senate, was invnlld, nnd that tho title of Maurico A. Hogers, president of tho Itcpubllcau senate, must bo recog nized as constitutional and valid. The or ganization of tho Itepublicnn sennto was upheld. All of the justices of tho court except Justice Abbett concurred in tho opinion of tho chief justice. Tho lntter nnuounced thnt Justice Abbett held views of his own regarding the case, and would formulato and file them later. The decision is n completo Itepublicnn victory, tho court siding with tho counsel of thnt party on every point in tbo enso except on the mntter of jurisdiction. Governor Werts gnveStnteComptroller ,clect Hancock nnd Stnte Treasurer-elect Swain their commissions as soon as tho decision of the supreme court wns ren dered, nnd they nre ulready in possession of their ofllces. Tho governor hns filed all tho bills passed -by tho Hepubllcnu legisla ture, nnd they nro now laws. Tlio Hepubllcnn senate expected to hold a session last night, but failed to have a fjuoruni, nnd adjourned until this morn ing, when tlio Democratic senators wero here and joined with them.
