plaudits. The remedy proposed was for
that which had long been held as a weak
point in the practical workings of our form
of government. Most of the senators of
both parties were committed to the neces-
sity of some legislation on this subject.
He was one of those who believed Hayes
and Wheeler legally elected. He spoke OF
the objections Ia the bill and said thar
too much had been surrendered to the
democratic party. II gave that party a

who is the great unknown. Something
more was required than a mere expedient
to bridge over the present emergency. A
measure of broader scope should have been
PROVIDED, applicable not mercy TO next
month, but to the coming century or all
time.
Notwithstanding these objections he was
inclined to support the bill as without it we
we're in danger of drifting without pilot or
rudder. He referred to the fact that, last
March only three republican and four
democratic senators voted for an amend
ment declaring that, in case of disagree
ment between the two houses, the vice
president had the right to count the cleo
tnrsl votes. Therefore, as no remedy was
provided for the impending disagreement,
and as this measure had been framed by 81
able a committee of both houses. and as
maniiestlY no other measure for the settle
ment of the difficulty could now be expect
ed, he felt constrained to give it his vote.
