Mr. Hanna, it is understood, op poses the seating of Mr. Corbett, on the ground that refusal to seat him is the way to force the eor- ernor of Oregon to call a special session of the legislature, and thus get a republican senator for a full term. It mav be feared that Mr. Hanna, since he appears to thiDk he has a right to be dictator over OregoD, is as badly mistaken in mis matter as he is as to the con dition of things in Ohio. Oregon is not worrying about the seat in the senate, and that is not the question which the governor is likely to consider, in relation to a special session. The only reason for calling a special session Bhould one ever be called would be founded in the business affairs of the state. Mr. Hanna is likely to find that he cannot dictate from Washington or from Ohio a spe cial session of the legislature of Oregon. Besides, it is very evi dent that Mr. H anna's own affairs need his attention. He is now a senator by appointment, but he will never be a senator by election.
