as often as they please; marriages with sisters
are prohibited; but they can marry any other

this State, we quote some of the remarks Of
Senator Cooley on THURSDAY York
Express.
Mr. Cooley said he was democrat before tina,
sage OF the 10Th (Mr, CornelD was born-and
he had never been denounced as ANYTHING else
than democrat, until he Came to this Senate.
and not then except by such political reneesdes
as that Senator, who in 1913 percl ed them
selves upon the Buffalo platform, and boldly
and loudly proclaimed that there was no such
thing as democratic party in existence. These
scapegraces Were the only ones that had ever
dared to call him anything but democrat And
he now wished to say to the Senator from the
goth. (Mr. Cornell. that if he presumed to say
that he (Mr. Cooley was not democrat, he
lied. lie cared not whether man was Senator
or not he should not thus lie concerning him.
without his teaching him better manners. That
Senator could not thus read him out the par.
ty. And he repeated his assertion, that if that
gentleman or any of his coadjntors said of him
that he has ever s,rayed at all from the ranks
OF the party. they lied, and their throats were
blistered with lies!
