Senator nAYARD's determination, reported
from Washington, 10 res1gn tho Craftsmanship
Of the Finance Oomtnittoo bocat,so tho
majority Of 1iia phrty In tho sonato votea to
discharge that Committee from further con-
slerauon Of the WARNER Silver bill, Ia omi-
nontly proper, and ho will mako mistnko It
l.o allows his associated from partisan
roasons to dissuaio him from bis purpoas. A
vote TO discharge conrnittoo from constaer-
atlon Of any bill which that Committee hhs
resolved 10 snpproes Is equivalent to voting
want OF confidence in tho ruling members
Of tho Committee. The motion In tho caso
Of tho WARNER bin did not prevail In the
sonate, but large majority Of the Democrats
votod for 1t, and their votes undor the
circumstances woro equivalent to m m.
nouucomont that Senator DAYAnp no longer
represents them fairly On tho financial
questions. To oontinue to net for the in.-
iority In tho Finance Committee when at
variance with that majority viii be Mother
creditable nor pleasant. Senator BAsARD's
ksen sonse Of honor mud responsibility enables
linn to appreointe thia fact, but the sentiment
Ia li.tlo too fino for the comprehension Of
the average Democratic politician, and hence
tho effort to inluco him 10 abandon Lis very
worthy resofution.
