The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1881-04-28

THE United States Senate was called
together iu extra session to consider the
Executive nominations, and to start the
Garfield administration. This, however,
it has refused to do, owing to the oppo
sition of the Republican Senators, who
refuse daily to vote to 90 into executive
session as proposed by the Democrats.
The result is, the Administration is par.
alyzed, and its three hundred appoint.
ments remain unConfrmed. The off
GERS necessary for the performance Of
the public business are not appointed.
Courts are destitute of Judges, and other
departments Of the public busin ess are
suffering. 1t is not likely this deadlock
will be broken till Messrs. Blaine and
Garfield become convinced they can
beat Senator Conkling and confirm the
nomination Of Judge Robertson; or it
will be ended just as soon as Senator
Conkling becomes sure he can beat Mes
srs. Blaine and Garfield, and reject Rob.
ertsoD. The great Republican factions
must fight out their fight, even if the
public suffer.

IS FALsEHOOD THE SOLE STOCK
IN TRADEI


1t would really seem as If the discus
sion in the Senate was developing con-
dition of things melancholy to behold.
Some of the Radical Senators are bitter
and mean enough to resort to falsehood
of the baldest character. For example,
two or three weeks ago Senator Dawes
told of a Northern man South who had
been burned out, and in fact horribly
used and abused. He refused to give the
name lest he would be murdered, &c.
Mr.. Dawes has been followed up, and
last week Senator Jonas of Louisiana
took up Mr.. Dawes and his cock and
bull story, and riddled him and it. 1t
seems the mans name is Heath, and Mr..
Jonas read dispatch from the Lieut.
Governor of Louisiana, setting forth that
Heath's property, which was burned, was
only rated at 81, 400, and that tie Grand
Jury we're investigating whether he had
not burned it himself in order to get the
insurance. Jonas also read letter from
a gentleman in Peabody, Mass, stating
lIeath's character to be bad. Jonas rails
ed a general laugh, using Dawes's tactics
against him. by saying he could not give
the name Of the writer of the letter for
fear Of his life being imperiled. The
debate ran on. Dawes made use of an
article from the Charleston News aud
Courier to prove that fraud was common
in that state. He was answered by
Wade Hampton who reviewed the pol.
itics of that state, and claimed credit for
being the first in South Carolina to pro,
pose negro suffrage. .....
After Senator Frye last week had con
clHded his TRADE against the South, Sen
ator Coke sought the floor at once to re-
ply to the assault upon Texas, but was
unable to get in. On Thursday he was
more fortunate, and opened the debate
with thorough and mastery vindiCation
of his state against Frye's malignant as.
persions. He explained the liberal pro-
visions for school system in Texas, and
said that the white people there knew
their race had governed the world, and
they meant to govern Texas in the fu.
ture, constitutionally and legally, by
their superior intelligence, skill and force
of character. Mr.. Call also spoke at
some length, pursuing the line of his
previous speeches. Dawes was up quite
often. His opposition to Don Cameron's
motion to adjo over to Monday, led
to lively encounter between the two,
Cameron rltorting upon Dawes that he
himself had sought similar favor some
time before. The Senate laughed, and
Dawes was overwhelmed at this revela-
ton.
Texas by Senator Coke invited the
North to "break up the solid South by
kindness and craftsmanship" Maine
by Senator Fry, and Massachusetts by
Senator Dawes, invite the South to re-.
main solid" by vituperation, insolenCe
and barefaced SANDER. With whom do
good citizens think it best to intrust the
future of this country? With those who
favor harmony and good government; or
those whose political stock in trade is

We reinsert, in this issue of the Dem
ocRAT, the proceedings of the Democratic
County Committee, that our friends, one
and all, may see what was done. The
reason of the action of the committee in
deciding to nominate by delegate con-
vention is no doubt understood by our
friends generally throughout the county.
1t is greatly desirable that nominations
be openly and fairly made; and that
each locality have its full share in the
work This has not been the case in
the opular vote plan, the way it has
been run in this county. The work was
often done in slipshod, not to say, Grim.
inal manner. We care not to 90 into
particulars; but with this knowledge be.
fore them, the committee decided on the
delegate plan, giving one delegate for
every fifty votes cast for Hancock. In
this way each nominee must have ma
jority of all the votes cast, whereas in
The popular vote plan, mere plurality,
and not a majority, oftentimes nomin-
ates. We doubt not theactio of the COM
nittee will be acceptable TO our friends
generally, and it is to be hoped the work
on June 18th and 14th will be properly
and well done, and that ticket will be
made up of men of worth, energy and
that will carry the countv
