The opinions OH Senator Sprague's
recent speeches and career in the Sem

was the only Republican who voted
against the bill which was passed in ac-

TO General Spraguc, Senator Svraguc
and the millionaire Spraguc as he sits in
Congress would probably be disap-
rointment to you. We build out of our
notions OF warrior, rich nan and liti-
elan the figure OLA large, brrad-should-
cred, full-stomached man. with cold
seals, n loCk of command and a COM
mercial manner Of eXpcditing business.
Mr.. Spra-u ne is altogether different.
You see Il little narrow shouldered,
smooth faced boy, not over five feet five
inches high, with an eye glass, a BASH
full manner, quite alone and reserved,
sitting in a responding way low in his
chair, tearing up bits of paper, and hav-
ing, the appearance of young divinity
student. No enthusiasm core iponding
to his hoyishness is revealed in his face.
He ndlSenator Ross, who sits beside
him, are the least frequent speakers in
the Senate.
We have got over the notion of expect
ing much from MIN, and we say Little
Rhody" and Little Spragucsn like
correlative terms. 1t was, therefore,
with surprise that, last Friday, we saw
this quite little man come out in the
aisle and tackle the great legal question
of the tenure of office, with an original
and vehement aguressivcncss which
was as strange in manner rs il az mex
plicablc in motive. There he had been
sitting silent during seven years Now
he rose and delivered an attack upon
TIN age, the law, the constitution, the
war, the Senate and human society.
There has been nothing like it exemp-
lifted in history or i'm fiction, except,
perhaps, the celebrated revolt of Oliver
Twist against Noah Claypole and Beadc
Bundle. $50 incongruous, SO queer and
yet SO suggestive speech l have
never heard delivered in the Senate.
The mannar of Senator Sprague in
making this speech was aggressive and
spirited, like one FESTIVE under the chat
ing of invisible woes. He walked into
he aisle, looked squarcly into the face
of these whom, he suppose his various
periods fitted and made such astonish
ment as he progressed that blank faces
greeted his peroration.- Chicago Tri-
bUne.
