WHAT MR.. soUTHARp SAYS.

Hon. Milton j. Southland, one of the orig
inal flibusterers against the counting in of
aayes, and who was one of the members of
the House who led the movement that forced
the extra session, although not member of
the present Congress, has watched the course
of proceedings during the extra session, and
is IN constant confidential communication
with-the- Democratic leadeEs.--He talks in
an interesting way about the inside history of
the movement that forced the extra session,
and of the future course of the Democratic
party on the issue made, says:
There can be but one course, and that
is to persevere. The Republican party,
which, as shown by the official totals of the
last vote, is in minority of over !, 200. 900
1880, partly by divisions among their oppo>
nents, and partly by adroit manipulation of
small numbers of votes in closely contested
localities. In word they hope to prevail.
not as a majority party, but as q plurality
party. To this end the machinery OF the
election laws is absolutely indispensable.
With themselves in full operation, they can
turn the scale in any closely contested State.
They can calculate beforehand just how
many voters will have to be DISTINGUISHED BY
arbitrary process under the election laws,
and then they can disfranchise them by
simple stroke of tho pen, as the testimony
taken, by Senator Wallace's Committee in
Davenport's case shows. This power, in
triangular contest such as we are likely to
have next gear. would prove invincibe. The
election laws form the hope of tho Ropubli>
can managers for success in the next cam
paign. Take them away, and the Republic
cans would stand 10 more show of recover
ing the power they have lost than the Stuart
dynasty stands of a restoration in England."
In speaking of the future, MIR. Southland
says: "You can depend on one thing-there
will be no falling back On the contrary,
when tho party moves again it will be to ad-
vance-an advance which the occupant of
the White House will soon discover to be in
force and not feint or a reconnaissance. In
fact think we may call the extra session a
reconnaissance. The real battle will begin
next session."

MR. WEBSTER AND STATE
RIGHTS,

"A few years ago the Atlantic Monthly re-
marked cditorially that "the constitutional
aspect of political questions is neither talked
about nor thought about as it once was. The
constitutional lawyer himself has disap.
peared."
This remark was no doubt tue. as ap.
piled to the leading Republican politicians
then in power. The less said about the
constitution the better for them. "We ALL"
said Thaddeus Stephens, acknowledged we
were acting outside of the constitution"
We are happy to believe, however, that
siocs the democrats have regained power,
the constitutional aspect" has again be-
come matter of discussion. We find, for
example, that the pen of some very vigorous
constitutional lawyer" is occasionally driv-
ing through the columns of the New York
Express, as the following extract from that
paper will show:
The Times of this morning says: "Sena
tor Eaton never could find his authority for
quoting Daniel Webster as State rights
mau." IF Senator Eaton could not fad his
authority, it must have been because he
would not look for it. We tcnder the au>
thori,y of tho Times gratis, and with that
pleasure which everybody should feel in dis
polling ignorance. Daniel Webster declared
himself a Sta:e'rights man in debate
in the United States Senate on the Sub
Treasury system in the year 1899. He de
clared himself State rights man in a letter
written about four years after to the Barring
Brothers, who bad ipclosed him check for
one thousand pounds aud retained him as
counsel to answer the direct question whether
there was or vas not any such thing
as States rights, and he answered yes there
was such thing, Enthusiastically and absolute>
ly. He declared himself State-rights man
third-time, in language as distinct and af-
aEmative as ever was spoken or written, in a
famous speech he made at Capon Springs,
Virgins, in the year 1851, short time
before bis death. Is the Times satisfied, or
shall weeurn to Mr.. Wcbstor's works and
quote all the passages to which We refer?-
Nobody who has respectable acquaintance
with history would deny that Daniel Web
ster was State-rights man.
