been Obliged 10 give IN and return tt
Massachusetts,. That mans story would
be believed before the platitudes and
generations Of Lamar.
George demanded the name of the
gentleman. and declared the story be
told was untrue.
Dawes refused to name the man on
the ground that it would submit him to
further indignities.
There were several sharp passages
during the ensuing debate between
these two men, in the course of which
Dawes accused George of discourtesy,
and George said that Dawes could not
teach HIM manners.
Hale made speech because some of
his words had been quoted. He said
that the democrats of the south had
taken the wrong method of righting
their wrongs. Patience, not fraud and
assassination, would work their saliva
tion. He had good word to say for
Malone.
George said that the Hathaway,
|
Chisholm and Dixon murders were not
as the democrats represented. He
wished to inform the gentlemen that he
could not escape the responsibility for
retailing before the American people
the infamous slander against Missis-
sippi, and If he refused to disclose none,
he became responsible for falsehood.
He disbelieved the whole story. He
did not believe that Massachusetts
man was ever there.
Hill regretted that the republicans
had renewed their ISLANDERS of the
south. If they wished to meet the
country on coalition and the control of
Virginia the democrats were ready for
the issue. If the south was guilty of
fraud and assassinations they had no
right to representation here; If not then
the inventors of these Goddess ISLANDERS
were worse than barbarians. The south
meant to have good government, stop
outrages and not submit TO carpet bag
government.
Logan pointed out that Hill had
started this discussion by an attack on
Malone. He quoted Shernan's report
Of over 1000 murders in Louisiana and
Texas with indubitable evidence.
Voorhees, don't believe one word
of the statement.
Logan alluded to Coushalla, Colfax
and the New Orleans murders and
asked If Butler denied them.
Butler asked about the murders in
Pittsburg and Chicago few years ago.
Logan denied that the Chicago men
were shot in violation of the law, it
was in carrying out the law to sup
press the mob.
Butler and Logan became involved in
an excited, angry and personal debate,
in which both showed hot temper.
Logan continued; when a senator
says there is no tluth in that statement
that every record in the country shows,
disproves the assersion from beginning
to end.
HILL said nothing about that re-
record in louisiana. 1 knew nothing
about it.
A long discussion ensued between
Logan, Hill, Call and Maxey on the
subject of southern outrages and at
times angry words passed between the
senator's.
In conclusion Logan said: When the
colored man had a free and fair vote
the republicans would hold out their
hands in friendship to him. The north
would endorse the republican party in
standing for an honest ballot. If the
democrats come with shot guns the re-
publicans would come with shot guns.
1t would be Greek against Greek. 1t
would not be a white man putting
his heel on the neck of the colored
man.
Beck make some humorous illusions
to the fraud practiced in Rhode Island
and Massachusetts, which were good
humoredly answered by Burnside.
Voorhees, then took the floor and
sent to the clerks desk and had read an
extract from the Philadelphia 1sle-
graph, republican paper, which al
luded to Malone as regnade demo-
crat, and charging that his acting with
the republicans was in consequence Of
disgraceful bargain.
Hoar objected to its being read and
Voorhees, stated that he would endorse
it and make it his speech.
Malone rising said: rise to ascer-
tain whether correctly understand
the senator from Indiana (Voorhees) as
saying that the article which he had
read from the Philadelphia paper was
his speech In; that article am referred
to as renegade democrat,'' further
on as ''repudiationist' and farther on
as having entered into bargain with
the republican senators in regard to the
organization of the senate. If I have
recited correctly what is stated in that
article 1 ask the senator whether that
is his speech and I ask for reply.
Voorees, who had in the meantime
moved to the republican side of the
chamber, and taken chair at a short
distance from Malone, replied in cour-
teous but resolute tone, II gent to the
clerks desk an article from a leading
republican newspaper edited by allies
OF the senator frem Virginia. Soon
afterwards the senator from Massa-
cnusetts (Hoar) came to me in those
Kindly relations with which wa hava
