h'.Mu,lor lltii-iinon .Ml-.ieptojcntoil. Indiauapolis Journal. Senator Shiveiy, of (Irani county, presented a petition to the senate fiom an asscmli'y of Knights of Labor, on Friday lai-t, in which it was stated (hat Mr. McDonald ftud Senator Hurrieon "are the recognized attorneys of tbe Western r-iion Telegraph company, and pthei telegraph eompani-M, and of the Union Pacific aud other Western railroads holding large (facta of land belonging to the people," aud also declaring that "the employe* in this state of the St. Louis A Toledo Narrow-gauge road were cheated ont of three months' wages by the decision cf a Chicago judge, in which action the said "fntlemen figured conspicuously." So far as Senator Harrison 13 concerned, these fltalmnenis are absolutely without foundation, and ceuld have been made only as the resutt of misrepresentation. Senator Harrison authorizes the Journal to say that neither he nor any law Gnu of which he was ever a member was ever the regular counsel of (he
Western Union Telegraph company Some years ago (ietteral Harrison's lirm tas employed to assist the company's counsel here in a few cases, the last of (hem being live or six years ago. Since that time the senator's firm has been employed in a number of cases against the company, and also against the telephone company, to assert the right of competition against a claim of exclusive privileges. Neither Senator Harrison, uorauy law lirm of which he was ever a member, has ever been retained or employed by or on behalf of the Union t'acilic, or any other land grant railroad, in any matter or case whatever. The only connection which Senator Harrison or any law firm of which he was ever a member ever bad with litiga tion involving the St. Louis & Toledo narrow gauge railway, was that tbe present lirm did represent some small labor antlj supply claims against tbe railway company, so that, instead of be ing engaged against the allowance of labor claims, Senator Harrison's lirm was for them. In the light of these fac-U, of course the assembly, which is local assembly, No. 4919, will take speedy means to correct the misrepresentation it has made.

that the speech**(hue far bad bmb made in lawyer's phrMW. lie wanted to look at the *.u«fe\ion as a farmer would. He said that 229,000 Democrat and 233,000 Republican* htd decided that ther« was a vacancy in the lieutenant governorship. "The people had decided that Colonel Robertson should fill that vacancy.

The opeuing proceedings of the house this morning were devoted to the disposition of unimportant routine bueiness, such as the reading and correction of the journal and tbe receiving of various reports. The rules of tr.e house were amended so as to change the number of members on each standing committee from seven to nine. Mr. Jewett offered various amendments lo the rules, for the expedition of business, with especial reference to the disposition of bills, and the various amendments were ordered laid on the table and made a special order for to-morrow, In the reading of the journal, reference was made to -the protest offered by Mr. Ilarrell, 111 behalf of himself and (he Democratic minority, against the record of Monday's proceedings showing the canvas of the vote for lieutenant governor, but the protest was not spread upon the journal. The speaker announced that this had not been done because he wanted thecjuestion determined whether or not all protests should be spread upon the records, without first being heard by the house. Mr. Harrell therefore moved that his protest be spread upon tbe record. The protest was read, and the speaker directed lhat it be spread upon the journal without formal action. Representative Briant offered a resolution providing that the doorkeepers should, so far as possible appoint only ex-union soldiers to positions under him.

A copy of (he oath of office, which had been administered by Judge Walker) was attached.
The motion to reject prevailed by a party vote. Senator Winter announced that the Republican minority would consider Colonel Robertson as lieutenant governor and Senator Smith asa usurper in maintaining the office of president of the senate.
President Smith—If Senator Winter considers my conduct as usurpation, 1 invite him and his friend, Colonel Robertson, lo test (ho matter in the court at noon to-day, or at an^ other lime.

Other amendments were oflered and discussed, and tbe whole matter was finally referred to ilit committee ou federal relations, with instructions to repert to-morrow morning.
Temperance Bills lutroduced. Indianapolis News, if the disposition of tbe bouse to accomplish some legislation on the temperance (juestiou is indicated by the number of bills either already introduced or being prepared for Introduction on the subject, Something will be accomplished during the session. Mention lies already beep tiiade of the bill introduced bj Mr, ft^yholds, tfnlch Incorporate* high license and local option features, and that of Senator Thompson providing for a monthly license of f2« and the licensing of druggists to sell liquor, ana placing them under bond not to violate the law. Three additional bills have been Introduced in tbe house on the temperance i]iiestion. That by Mr. Brown, of Henry* provides that at each "biennial election the voters of each township, totirn or ward in a city shall vote their sentiments, whether or not liquor shall be sold in their i-especlive localities If the majority vote against it, then it shall be unlawful to sell it
Under any ciicumslances. If the vote be in favor of the sale of liquor, it shall then be lawful for any citizen oyer 21 years of age to Bell) Without a license, Upoll the payment of an annual fee of $200 for county and slate purposes, and the same tax mav be levied by the local municipality. The bill introduced by Mr. Fleece, of Hendricks, ia much rnorfe stringent. lis local option feature is similar to that of Mr. Brown's, except lhat it provides for a special election on the 1st of May of each year on the liquor question, and if the decision of any township, town or ward is in favor of liquor selling, it shall be allowed under certain restrictions, the seller to pay an annual license of $1,000 and be placed under $5,000 bond, no to disregard the law. Mr. Ackman, of Hancock, introduced a local option bill yesterday, providing that a liquor license shall not be issued, unless the applicant has a petition signed by a majoiity of the legal voters in the ward,*itown or towu:hip- He has another bill about ready for introduction, which provides for high license, $000 a year and $800 In certain cases.
Tbe Uemociacy Not Buoyant. It is clear lhat the Democracy is not satisfied with tbe situation In which tbey have placed themselves. Air. Smith's proposition is evidence of this but not the only evidence. The Republic an position is so strong that the Democracy can not hope to turn it by the methods adopted. There i9 no bechuding the fact that all bas been done that is not in accordance with the statutes has been committed by tha Democracy upon the ground that tbe Republicans were about to adopt, revolutionary proceedings, and that it was necessary to forestall them. Thai the democracy is not satisfied willi (the pies eut condition of things is further evidenced by the determination reached in caucus to iustitute proceedings against Robertson and compel him to show cause why he lays claim to the lieutenant governorship. If proceedings of this nature are not instituted, they will come up in another way. Said President pro tem Smith to-day: "The matter will certainly be settled in the courts. If in no other way, legal steps can be taken lo compel the auditor, by mandate, to pay warrants attested by myself, and in tbe hearing of this issue, the main question will piobably be involved."
Mr. Hynum Talks.
Congressman Bynum has returned to Washington, and bas been promptly interviewed on tbe Indiana situation. He says lhat there is no show for him as a possible candidate for senator. He does not take a rosy view of the situation, as may be gathered from the following remarks made by him in the Cincinnati Enquirer: "It looks as if we were going to be beaten. 1 see their programme. Tbe only way to defeat the Republicans is for the Democratic members of the house of representatsvea to resigu and go home and break a quorum. I am afraid our chances ara waning. You see, the Republicans have a precedent to go upon—just such a one as will send Ben Harrisan back to tbe senate from Indiana. Senator Butler, of South Carolina, was elected to the United States senate by a minority of the stale senate and the house of representatives, and he was given his seat by tbe unanimous vote of the Democrats and three or four Republican senators. Now, the Bepublicans of Indiana propose to send Ben Harrison here with just such a title as that upon which Senator Butler was sealed."
STATE PRESS.
South Bend Register: "Wonder if Green Smith has never said to himself, 'I would rather be right than be lieutenant governor?'"
New Albany Ledger: "The people will not endorse any revolutionary proceedings, end will hold the party beginning the revolution to a strict accountability."
Vincenues Commercial: ''The Seymour Democrat makes the elaim for its friend Green Smith that he is the most talked about man in the nation. Possibly. That other outlaw, Jim Cumming, had his boom ruthleMly burst and though equally prominent for a brief time he dropped almost entirely out of notice. Green has alio seen his biggest days and is now declining rapidly.'r
Lafayette Courier: "A United States court has decided that tbe government can not be held responsible for mail matter left on top of street boxes. Anxious Democratic oflise-seekers who have long and vainly been looking for something from Washington, will begin to fear lhat perhaps their applications prepared for the official eye have failed to get into the boxes. This is the last time that love letters go on top of the box."
