Those who read the logical clear and
exhaustive argument of Senator Ed

should read the weak and incoherent re-

Senator Pugh. The difference between
them is as great rs the difference between
right and wrong, But perhaps Senator

Senator Edmunds is chivalric foe

The speech of Senator Edmunds appears
lawyer and skillful parliamentary de
batter, 1t sets forth clearly the position
upon which the Republicans have planted
themselves; and so far rs it relates to the
point that papers regarding the conduct of
public officers filed in the executive de-
partments are official papers which the
Senate, or the other branch of Congress
in pursuit of information upon the state
of the Union, may call for at discretion
and which must be furnished when called
for, he has shown that the Republican
contention Is in the line of public interest
and the general practice sanctioned by
both parties. The people understand very
well that there would be no deviation from
