Congress that party had ridden in
power in the House fetlock deep in
human blood. Under that power it
had murdered more men for at
tempting to vote the republican
ticket than had fallen in defence of
the flag at Gettysburg. Beautiful
party TO talk about civil service re-
form. There was not a spot upon
the eScutcheOn Of the country that
had not been placed there by demo-

ing to the side of the chamber) is a

plauSe) lie (Bayne) said he had
endeavOred to show, yesterday. that
the removals made by the Presi-
dent were against the Constitution
and laws OF the country. He (Bayne)

the wishes OF the people, and bis
action in Office, land his action every
where, has been in response to the
public sentiment. While President
Arthur, instead of responding to
The demands Of the people, re-
spOnded to the demands of q minor
ity faction Of the republican party.
Collector after collector had been re-
moved by him; almost every one of
those removals had been against the
earnest protest of the people OF
those collective districts. That was
the difference between the two men

high duty to represent public senti.
ment, the other (Arthur) believing
it to be his duty TO represent the
will Of faction. The issue ought
to be presented to the people.
