After the morning hour. Messrs.
Hamlin and Blaine presented the
statue Of Maine to the National
Statuary Hall At the Capitol. In
his remarks reviewing the life and
service of Mr.. King, Mr.. Blaine
commented on the feeling Of the
people Of Massachusetts toward
those Of Maine, before tho latter
was . State. while It was . part Of
Massachusetts,. and alluded to Bos-
ton ~ constituting then, even more
than now, the governing power in
Massachusetts,. He said, finally,
the people of Maine formed . sep
arate State, and they were indebt-
cd for their success to the fear in
the minds Of the governing politi-
cal party Of Massachusetts, that
their ascendency would be endan-
gered II Maine should continue to
be an integral portion Of the State.
He commented severely on the &C
tion ofthe people Of Massachusetts
and commended the course Of VIM
King in opposing them.
The Massachusetts, Senators,
Messrs. Dawes and Hoar, attacked
the Maine Senator, and the former
challenged him to mention ~ In
stance when Massachusetts, evel
was guilty Of an unpatriotic act
Mr.. Blaine Immediately replied
that she was opposed 10 the wal
Of 1912, and refused to let hel

on the Democratic side of th'
chamber, aud when the Senate
