SENATOR THURMAN made q telling
point in his speech when he called at.
tention to the fact that the Democrats
have as much interest in order. peace
and the prosperity OF the country,
and perpetuity of the government, as
any men belonging to the Republican
party or any other party. The impu-
dent assumption of loyalty on the part
of the Republicans has gone about far
enough. Because . man is Demo-
crst does he wish to involve the
country in another civil war ruin his
own property, bring the sword to his
own throat and spread desolation
throughout the land? On the other
hand the Republicans, who know that
with change Of administration their
crimes would find them out, are ready
for another civil strife to escape detec-
ton and punishment. The mass Of
the Republican party should not, per.
hsps, be thus accused, but the control
ing Republicans prefer another civil
conflict rather than take the risk of
the development Of their rascalities.
Hence their false accusations against
the Democrats and their attempt to
precipitate . conflict.

In connection with the veto Of the
Bin to Prevent Military interference
at Elections, the following bill, which
was intord uced in the House in 1900
by John Marshall, of Virginia, subse.
Quently Chief.Justice, has been fished
out of the musty tones of the House
to show that in 1900 the representa-
tixes of the people had as much re-
speet for the liberties of the people as
the majority which now controls the
popular branch. A bill was passed on
the 14th Of March, 1900, and its title

he resigned his Office As Treasurer. He
says: :i"I did not resign beeaaseI was
not in accord with the Government,

he suppressed that part Of my annual
