| Mr.. D0CKERY (resuming) said that the resig-
\ nation Of Mr., Haywood was, at this moment, he
believed the subject Of remark and discussion in
| the Senate He was somewhat surprised that
even in that body, such should have been the case;
but he could forbear the expression Of his great
surprise that il should have been introduced into
i this House. That gentleman was not a member Of
ibis House, nor had he ever been; he was, there
fore in no way responsible TO il for an act done in
an official eapaety-s capacity which this House
had no agency in creating He was responsible to
this House in no way whatever for the act which
was now the subject OF animadversion here. He
did not intend To be understood as the apologst or
defender of Mr.. III. He did not know that he was
in need OF any defence from him; nor did the per-
sona relations between them Justify his taking such
an Office upon himself The intercourse between
them had only been Of formal yet courteous char
acter. lfthe honorable senator stood in need OF
defence for taking a1step which put il QUE Of his
power TO vote for the bill now pending in the Sen.

the approbation of a large majority Of the people of
North Carolina triump hantly expressed in an cleo
ton shortly to be held in that State.
| His colleague Mr. BIccsl had spoken of the views
and conduct Of the party by which Mr.. HAY
wood was elected to the Senate, AZ also Of the
views Of Mr. II himself in regard TO the tariff
and the protective policy. With respect TO the
particular views of Mr.. II. upon that important in.
terest MIR. d. knew nothing; he had never spoken TO
him in his life upon the subject of politics Mr.
| II. was a great leader in one party and he (Mr
| d. was an humble member Of another IL
was Of the views Of the people Of North Carolina-
the majority Of the people-that he wished to ad-
dress a few remarks TO the House Whether Mr.
/ II. had net carried out the views, and disobeyed
i and BETRAYED the party who elected him. he had
/ nothing TO say. He had something 10 saw as TO
the circumstances which led to, and the means by
which that party obtained the power to send Mr.. n
to the Senate. Since the election Of governor in
1886, and in that election, the tariff or protective
policy had entered into all the political contests of
| North Carolina. The tariff act of lS42 and the
protective policy generally had been fully and free

dates for offices Of every grade have discussed il

Of whatever character has been more fully and sbly

/ In 1880 il was alleged that if a whig President
was elected it would fasten upon the country the
protective policy; yet the whig candidate received

xithstanding which the elections have decided that
the protective policy was the true policy of the coun
try. The unfortunate death of General Harrison
and the troublea which arose in the whig ranks
| from the unexpected and extraordinary course pur-
sued by his successor produced apathy and despond
in the wing party, and their opponents obtain

1912 The wing vote in that year was about 10 600

of John Tyler. The election Of that year. so far as

democratic ascendency was therefore an accidental
