proceeded to lay down and to support BY
argument counter proposition. Mr. Gar
held went on to show the falIacy of the idea
| that the States are sovereign and declared
that the question had been decided in the
negative not only by the Supreme Court in
long line of decisions, but also by the
great arbitrament of war. But now it
seemed that question was not to be allowed
toIstay settled, for the people had been told
recently in the South, that the lost cause
was not lost, that the men who had fought
against the union were net 10 conspiracy
against it, liz conclusion he predicted that
the bill which had been before wrecked 10
another hull was about starting out on
short, disastrous and iguoble voyage.
Mr. Hurd then took the floor to reply to
Mr.. Garfield. Ia his speech he recapitu-
lated the principle points for which the
Democratic party has been c0ntending, and
in conclusion appealed confidently to the
patriotism of the country. Ii on those
issues the Republican party were to be sue
cessful such result would mean an end Of
the Republic and the uplifting of an en-
pre-. Could there be any doubt as to the
result Of such controversy? Ia Russia,0r
Germany, or France the result must be
doubtful, bat it could not be doubtful here.
Civil liberty could not perish on its own
Threshold, and at its own freside. The
past and future protested against it, and
what was of more practical value the Dem
ocratic party protested. He could hear the
mutterings OF the Anglo Saxon resolve
against it. He could hear the tread OF
egions forming with the banners of civil
liberty above them. The contest was al
ready begun, and God would give the vic
tory to freedom aud right. The speech was
frequently aud enthusiastically applauded
on the Democratic side.
After further debate the committee rose
and reported the bill to the House, and it
