Judge Davis. No doubt can any longer exist that a
majority of the Democrats who voted for the Flee
toral bill expected that Judge Davis would be
chosen the fifth judge, and would act as Demo-
cratic partisan upon every question which arose. as
Judges Clifford and Field have done. Those who
are now denouncng him would probably have been
disappointed had he become one of the members OF
the Commission; but as place upon IL was GER
tany offered him and positively declined he is the
object of the most intense hatred of that small class
of Democrats who have been shouting, Illden
or war; An exciting discussion occurred yesterday
between Mr.. Thompson of Massachusetts,. Chairman
of the House Florida Investigating Committee, and
Judge Abbott, member of the Commission. Mr..
Thompson urged vehemently that the Commission
should be broken up and that the further count Of
the vote be suspended by filibustering. Judge Abb
bott replied that he could not agree with him. He
SAID there was nothing for the Democratic party to
do except manfully to accept the results of the
measure, which was particularly their own, and to
abide by the decision.
