Ninth. Bat whcn it proposed to take
another md needless aggressive sstep, ono
entirely neodlosss. oxcoptto give Malone his
pay and turn out two excellentiund acceptable
'ficers simply because thoy'arc Democrats,
the Democratic Senators say. "No, you shall
not do it, and we will stop you by precisely
tho came means whicl, you employed for
seventeen days to stop US from organizing
tho committees"
Tenth. Whenever tho Republicans shall
have majority, even of ono, in the Senate,
no Democrat will interpose single dilatory
motion against tho election of now officers;
but so lung as tho Republican Senators
united with Malone have only one-half
Of tho Senate and the Democrats thave the
other half, the Democrats will not aid, di.
rectly or Indirectly, in turning oot Demos
cratic officers.
Eleventh., The Republican Senators may
mako up their minds that neither ut this
session nor ut the next session will they be
able 70 turn Mcssrs. Bafoh and Bright out Of
Office unless by somo means thoy first secure
q majority of the Senate.
Twelfth. Quo word moro. When com-
mitees are to bc. appointed next 'Decom-
bea, if the Senate continues escnly divided
aI now, fair warning is given to tho Republi-
can Senators that tho Democratic Senators
will insist on fair and equitable division Of
the committees and chairmanships., Thero
are thirtyAeight Senators on each side Of
tho Chumber, md common fairness domands
mn equal partition Of the Committees.
Th;r eenth. For tho Republican Seuntors
to demand Gil tho committees and oil tho
chairmanships by tho casting voto Of the
Vico-Presidcnt is simply to empower tho
Vice President to appoint tho committees.
That has never been consented to until this
session, when, for tho sake Of peaoe, the
Democrats permitted it. 1t will nover be
permitted again, and duo and fair warning is
now given to that effect.
1t is held by Democratic Senators that
these propositions present their case in tho
clcarest manner, and entirely Justify, to any
one even but slightly familiar with the rules
of legislative proceedings the course whicil
they have adopted and which they persist in.
