Major Doug las Views.

WASHINGTON, Jan. o. Major B. B. Doug
las, Of Virginia, it is understood, will oppose
the passage of the plan Of the committee for
adjusting the Presidential difficulty for the fol
lowing reasons:
lst. 1t is complete surrender Of the posi-
ton heretofore taken by the democratic party
upon the question ho,0 the count OF electoral
votes should be made and the rights, powers
and duties Of the House of Representatives in
relation thereto.
3D.. The first section comedies what the re-
publicans clam, viz: That it takes concurrent
negative action by Congress to throw out the
vote OF any electoral college, whereas from 1893
10 1878 the uuVarying practice has been to re-
quirc concurrent affirmative action to count any
such vote, and The vicious precedent thus
sought to be established will hereafter be cited
and relied upon as the deliberate judgment of
Congress- The effect will be to encourage Just
such frauds as We have Witnessed 10 South
Carolina, Florida aud Louisiana whenever the
two houses are of opposite party politics, be
cause it will be impossible to obtain the con-
currcuc; necessary 10 rfject the fraudulent re
lurDs
Il. 1t Is Tot pretended that We gain any GER
tain equivalent for such surrender except pedse,
and Mr.. D. does not think peace the summum
'bonum 10 be purchased at any and every cost,
but believes that the people who will not de
iend heir rights at all hazards will soon have
no ights 10 defend.
4th. Tie whole scheme is Matched out OF
tie icars Of Eascrn capitalists aud bond hold.
crs al both partirs aud Is sacrifice OF the
Interests OF the rcnric at large to the timId
e,ursels and selfish demauls of capital.
