NETWORK DAILY TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER "a, 1866

Yates all wel-known and leading Republicans. No
Democrat spoke against the bill, while Messrs.
McDougall of California, and Doolittle Of
Wisconsin, Democrats, or supporters Of the Presi-
dents policy, openly favored increased salaries.
1t is also worthy of attentive note that Mr. Reyerdy
johnson, an eminent counselor on the Democratic
side, explicitly declared that if the bill was wrong,
both parties were to blame. The vote on agreement
to the confcrenceEeport was as follows

No Democrat it is evident, voted III the negatives
aud it seems equally plain that mono so desired Al
ter new conference, the bill went to the House on
its passage the Senate having agreed as fnality to
couple the two measures of bounty and compensation
The House still testified its disapproyal of the latter
clause OF the bili Mr.. Lawrence (Republican) of
Ohio, asked for separate vote on the two prop
ositions; but the motion, it appears, was not in
order. Mr.. Samuel j. Randall (DemocraO of Penn.
sylvana called to order Mr.. A. c. Harding (Repub.
lican) Of Illinois for declaring it an unpaiseworhy OK
crcse OF capacity TO place the House in the condition
of voting either to increase its salaries or to equazo the
bountes. Messrs. Brooma of Pennsylvania Morrill,
Of Vermont, Conkling Of New-York, and Wilson OF
Iowa, alike spoke and voted against the bill, while
Nblack OF Indiana and Randall Of Pennsylvania, both
Democrats contcnded in its favor. The question
was at last forced 10 remarkably close votes

Thus, on the narrow vote of II 10 80 on the pass
age Of the BILL 10 Democrats voted in it, favor and
only against it. Compared to their numbers far
greater proportion Of Republicans voted against the
bill than Democrats. 1t is plain that were enough
Democrats in favor Of the increase Of salaries to have
secured tsdeat by The comfortable majority OF 4had
they been disposed, while twice many Republicans
refused to as there Democrats in the House.
Let our opponents, therefore, cease to apply the
falsehood TINT this rnwse measure was " Radical"
one We have shown that in Committee and on three
several occasions in House aud Senate the active Demo
crais OF either body voted for il. If they now deem
n Mrone. we nln.i hold lhem re.ponsble for L.
