Governor Lord on last Saturday ap pointed ex-Senator II. W. Cor belt to be A senator for Oregon until such lima m the legislature should elect to . nil the vacancy. It ii not likely, how ever, that Mr. Uorbett will be seated, aince lb preoedeuU heretofore estab- ItHbed by the senate are advene to acn appointment. The case of John B. Allen, of Washington, two years ago was a parallel case to this one and the senate refused to seat him on the ground that the authority did not feet with the governor to appoint after the legislature failed to eject at the expiration of a term; that he.ceuld only appoint to fill a vacancy caused by death or resignation during a term, The appointment of Mr. Corbett is a very unusual proceeding. He is now 70 years old, infirm and childish, and W seated could be of no material serv ice to the state. But it must be re membered in " connection with this Appointment that Mr. Corbett has been accused (and the accusation has not been disputed) of havina: furnished the money spent in holding np the ' recent legislature, and for this "valua ble service" to the state Mr. Simon demanded bis appointment as part pay meat lor sncb services. There seems no other substantial reason why ; a man like Corbett should be ap pointed when there are any number of younger men in the state who have the intelligence end ability coupled with vigor to fill snch a position. It baa been current topio that Mr. Cor bett furnished the money lor Simon And Bourne to handle the populists with at Salem during the forty-five day larce, and now the old gentleman is to be recompensed by being given COUNTT COURT.
