OUR WASHINGTON LBTTBR,

/ To THE EDITOR OF THE NEW NORTHWEST
Senator Allison has not yet been able
TO force a vote upon the silver bill, as
was his determination, simply because
the honorable Senators have not had
out their say. Yesterday Mr.. Jones
made an eloquent plea for remonetiza-
tion, and in defense Ofhimself, as against
the aspirations of those who have
charged him with interested motives in
advocating this policy. We were sur
prised TO learn that he is not in receipt
Of silver by hundreds Of dollars a day as
income from his mines, for we certainly
shared in the popular belief that he was
one Of the silver bonanza producers.
But we must accept his denial aud his
statements that to gold only must he
look for income.
The biggest fight Of the session oc-
Cured over the West Point appropria-
tion bill on Wednesday, for the Demo-
Gratis locked horns with each other and
gored and butted in a manner worthy
a contest between ferocious budaloes
Hewitt, of New York, and Aiken, OF
South Carolina, We're the principal war
rIors, and it is difficult to determine
who got the worst scalping from the
other Both insisted the other wouldn't
T fight. Mr. Aikeu's conduct and man
ner reminded US of anti-bellium times
when South Carolina characterized
/ Northern men as mudsills and greasy
mechanics, but we are glad to note that
he is an exception TO the rule Of gentle
men representing the South in Congress,
as IL is the first time in this Congress
that offensive epithets have been sec
tionally hurled. West Point got reg
ular hacking in this discussion. It is
the first time, we believe, that West
Point has ever been fully and thoroughly
ventilated. It seems from the discus
sion that it, like the army, has five off,
GERS where three would suffice, and that
in the future there will be considerable
reduction made in the number Of its
. professors. We were not aware till this
debate that the United States requires
nearly double the number Of officers fol
its army that England, France, or Ger
many has in theirs, and while we don't
agree with some of the structures
upon the West Point portion Of our
army, yet there is no doubt that we
have too many officers in proportion to
the number Of enlisted men, and that
some pruning process should be given.
At last Governor Hendee's bill for the
government of the District has beer

our separation from Great Britain was
justified. Taxation without represen-
tation is tyranny" This famous aphor-
ism Of James Otis, although sufficient
for the occasion when it was put forth,
expresses but a fragment Of the prinei-
pie. Governments can be oppressive
/ through many means besides taxation.
The true principle is that all govern
ment over any persons deprived Of any
voice in such government is tyranny.
That is the principle Of the Declaration
Of Independence. We were slow in al
lowing its application to the African
race, and have been still slower in allow
ing its application to women; but it has
at last been done by the Fourteenth
Amendment rightly constituting by a
definition Of "citizeuship" which in
cludes women as well as men; and in
declaring that the privileges and i'm
munities Of citizens shall not be
abridged" If there is any privilege of
the citizen which IS paramount to all
others, it is the right of suffrage, and a
constitutional provision designed to Sc
cure the most valuable rights Of the cit
izen, must, as 1 conceive, be held to Sc
cure that right above all others. tt is
clear, from the entire language of this
section, that this declaration was in
tended, not only to secure to the citizen
this political right, but that such was
its principal, if not its sole object, those
provisions Of the section which follow 10
being devoted to securing the personal
rights of life, liberty, and property, and
the equal protection Of the laws. The
clause "NO State shall make or enforce
any law which shall abridge the privi-
leges or immunilies of citizens of the
United States, might be stricken out of
the section, and the residue would Sc
cure to the citizen every right which is
now secured, except the political right
Of voting and holding Office. This
clause, then, by placing the citizenship
OF women on a par with men, and de-
ciaring that the privileges and immuni-
ties of the citizen shall not be abridged,
has secured 10 women equally with
men the right Of suffrage. When, there
fore, the states were by this amend
ment absolutely prohibited from abridg-
ing the privileges of citizens, either by
enforcing existing laws, or by making
new ones, the right Of every citizen,
male and female, to the full exercise of
this privilege, as against State action,
was absolutely secured.
