The Democratic Senators held caucus to
consider what course be pursued on the reso-
luton Of Mr.. Edmunds now pending in the
Senate, which declares that the Thirteenth,
Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments are
valid and Of the same paramount authority
as any other part Of the Constitution, etc,
and agreed upon a substitute for it. While
III this substitute they admit that the Thir-
tcenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth amend
nenis to the Constitution to be Of binding
force and validity, they regard Mr.. FL
muni-'s resolution as proposing legislative
action in conflict with the decisions Of the
Supreme Court of the United States, par
tcularly in the Cruikshank case regarding
tho c amendments, and they quote from the
dlcta OF the court to sustain the ground
which will he taken in the substitute, that
the United States have no citizens distinc-
lively their own that the Constitution does
not confer the right to vote to any one, but
simply confers the privilege Of freedom from
any discrimination on account of race, color
Or previous condition, and that the regula-
ton Of suffrage belongs exclusively to the
States.

The Milwaukee Sentinel publishes high
ly complimentary article on Senator Ed
munds. from which we make the following
extract:
There are other men in the Republican
party who, while they may not have the
"hurrah" popularity Of Grant, nevertheless
have every quality regarded Us essential and
are not subject to the objections urged in
the case of Grant. Take Senator George f.
Edmunds. of Vermont, as an instance. He
is the brsiniest man IN the United States
Senate; he is the most practical, conscien-
tious and safe. Every inch of him Republic
can. he is not narrow. nor is he selishly
partisan. He is statesman in the highest
sense of the word. lie occupies posi-
ton between tho extreme radicals and
extreme conservatives OF the Republican
party. seeing and using the good in each
and retaining the confidence of both. lie
saw the weaknesses of llayes'S scheme Tor
reform in the public service, but instead
OF using them to strengthen the spolls
system, he proposed the only practicable
method Of reformation. meeting the re-
form Republicans in good faith and giving
the subject the benefit OF his experience and
keen intellect lie is the only man, after
Morton, who felt the dangers in our lame
provisions for the electoral count, and he
proposed A practical remedy that was not
sufficiently radical to defeat its consldera-
ton.
Senator Edmunds has been closely identi-
fed with every measure of the Republican
party and has the entire confidence of every
Republican. Brave. honest and cautious,
be has been balance wheel in the Senate,
and ia promptly trusted by his fellows in
that body where keen observation, true pat
riotism and practical sense are in demand.
As the chief executive Of the nation he
would bring to the service of the people
broad mind, 3 ripe judgment. well defined
principles. unfaltering loyalty to his
country and his party. clean hands. strong
will, minute Information as to the theory
OF our institutions and no visionary schemes.
lie is a hard-money man, a practical civil
service reform advocate and statesman in
mis- views OF the sectional question. The
Republican party can do more foolish
thing than to nominate him and it is doubt
full if it can do better. There isn't North
western State but would give him the full
electoral vote.

The New York Times publishes long
and bitter arrangement of Senator Conkling,
written by one whom it youches for as an
"honOred Republican was has ceased to take
any active share in politics The writer
evidently well-informed and able man
charges that on two occasions (oncc in the
electoral crisis and again during the great
financial debate) Senator Conkling " shrunk
from the performance Of his duty, depriving
his State, the foremost in the Union, of her
Just influence in the settlement OF the ques-
tons in dispute, and presenting an example
of dereliction in the execution of his trust
unworthy of a statesman, and in the high
est degree culpable as member of repre-
sentative body" This, in brief, is the sub
stance of the arrangement Of the Senator as
a legislator. As trusted party leader. the
writer charges Senator Conkling with prac-
tically DESERVING the Republican candidate
for Governor of New York in 1874, and
with abandoning the organization to its
fate in 1876 Taking this letter for text,
the Times reads Senator Conkling a severe
and much-needed lecture, some of the
suggestions of which he will do well
to heed. In late years he has GER
tainly lost much of the public confidence
he once enjoyed. A man Of great and un-
questioned abilities, be is identified with no
great legislative measure. His voice is sell
dom heard on the great issues Of the day
and he is principally heard from in connec-
ton with some petty personal squabble or
in connection with some scheme for his own
aggrandizement. In the six years to come
he has splendid opportunity to retrie7e
his reputation, to rsn1er exalted service to
his country and to place his own fame upon
solid and enduring foundations. We trust
he will do this. and prove himself a worthy
Of the great Empire State |
