Senator Harris on COnklins's
COWrsP

Washington Special to Gin. Commer,ial.l
The action Of the republican caucus
in unanimously agreeing to vote for
Senator Harris, of Tennessee, for pres
ident pro tempore Of the senate, is a
very high compliment to that gentle
man, and shows the high estimation
in which he is held. Harris and Conk-
ling are personal friends, though as
far apart politically as the poles;
In conversation upon Conkllng S
and PlaSt's movement Senator Harris
saws: The senators have returned
their commissions to the state. New
York voted the republican ticket last
November. Senators COnkliDg and
Platt found themselves antagoniziug
the administration, and inasmuch as
the administration was put in power
by the state of New York and other
states. and as Conkling waa bonni to
autaeonize the president, he evidently
sAouRht that the best thing for him to
do was to tender his commits
sion. He now goes back
to New York fully expecting to
meet with Endorsement there, | can
see no other reason than this. lie
submits to the people his action, and
awaits their verdict. If he is re-
elected and sent back here be will not
only have the rejecting of their views
for the future, but the confirmation
by them Of his course in the past. 1t
will all come forth very shortly. When
the resignation was first read ! was
busy reading letter and did not catch
distinctly what it was, so l called for
a second reading. | was quite sur
prised when [ found out what it was
The democrats are not worried, They
are all very comfortable. If Msssrs
Conkling and Platt ere reelected on
the platform they have assumed. | re-
gard it as 40 open declaration Of war
There will be Wrang'e, bat the re-
vublieaus will come together wher
