y.s placed before the Senate.
Hr. Logan did not feel crlled upon to
.,syer What Nr. Teller had said yes.
.srday. bat would reply to one or two
-emarks personal to himself. 1t would
mt do Tor him 10 enter the field of sar-
,asm with Mr.. Teller. Mr.. Logan
,euld not say what ne had said TO IN
nee the Senator from Colorado TO
AXE the remarks that he did. The
senator from Colorado was the first
nan that had ever complained OF a
rant of courtesy N Mr.. Logan be
Mr.. Logan lid not claim all
ne graces or tina. he wOuld
AXE a Chesterfield. He would
rect the Senator rom Colorado here
9fter as the Chesterfield of the Senate.
that SENATOR references TO Mr.. Logan 5
military service, and that he Mr..
Tnganl was parad.ng his military SER
7isss before the country, were unworthy
ola Republican Senator, representing a
oval State. On the other side of the
senate we're men who fought against
he Union. They had more respect
sor the man who was g soldier and who
TODD face TO face against them than TO
.nsinuate IN any such low, mean, des-
1icable way as this. L am not
n mis- (Mr. Teller's) way" said
Mr. Logan, NOR in the way of
snv OF his friends. His insinuation
about my aspirations were without
;oundatiOn. l have no aspirations
lther than to represent my constitu-
sn.s honestly and fairly. What justi-
.catiOn is there for such insinuaIion
ask for nothing; 1 want nothing; l
an not in the way of any man"
Continuing, Mr.. Logan said that the
men who had been Cabinet officers
we're not necessarily statesmen. When
he Senator from Colorado had said
hat Mr.. Logan was not a statesman. he
lad said no more than Mr.. Logan knew.
He was sorry that there were some men
who did not know SO much about them
selves.
Logan referred to Teller'S remark of
yesterday, inSinuating that ne (Logan)
1aG alluded IN a former speech to the
senator from Maine (Hale) and said:
- What has that got to do with the
deposition about 500 men2" Yet it
vas insinuated that he had struck II
ouu Of his speech. why has il been
oers' sted in on this floor that
am trying TO make insinua-
IONS on somebody outside this
-hamber7 l say, once fcr all, that
made no such allusion-that the man
va not in my mind-that had no such
intent ion, nor can my language be so
5onstrued or twisted into any such
shape as that What l said was in
rsierence TO Senators and in reference
, the backing of Senators by Senators.
NJ N reference to anybody outside, for
. 90 not deal il that character
o. argument or character OF as
sEIton. | will say further to the
Senator from ColOraco, and desire him
20 understand il, md have notice now.
that ali attempts made by Senators here
u fti- chamber TO cause a quarrel or
ii-ieeling between that gentleman
alluded to and myself will be a failure
he snd l are better friends than those
gentlemen who are trying to make US
enemies. That is all in reference to
hat This little play in this little game
IS too small a thing for senators to
engage in Mr.. Logan then entered
mon a discussion of the details OF the
bill.
Alter remarks by Plumb, in opposi-
ION 10 the bill, Mr.. Vance addressed
ne Senate in support OF his bill 10 re-
al me civil service Jaw.
Mr.. DOlph then addressed the Senate
n support OF the bill for admission the
II Washington Territory. He claimed
hat in every point Of view the Terri
tory was entitled to admission. Allud-
nc TO the recent anti-Chinese occur
-ences, Mr.. Dolph said they were the
work, not of citizens of Washington !
territory, bit of foreigners. The ont
ages he characterized as Inaccessible. |
lie would not defend lawless violence;
1ut there were some mitigating circum- |
'tances in this case. The people of the l
Fhole Pacific Coast we're almost unani- |
nous as to the policy Of excluding the /
-hinese, but the proximity of Wash |
agton Territory to British Columbia l
ave an opportunity for many hundreds !
+ Chinese, on the completion of the !
5snada Pacific Railway, 10 get into
Washington Territory and so violate
ne laws Of the United States.
Although The national troops had I
1sen called for, the people OF Washing
On Territory had arranged matters be- 1
ose the troops arrived. The anti |
sainese incidents should not prejudice |
he case o. the Territory. Occurrences |
=. as reDTehensible had occurred In |
.aost Of the States before admission,
some since.
After Ell executive session the Senate !
