WASHINGTON, ID. c., Dec. 2S.-On the
5th of January the Republicans hope to
have full attendance with their ma
jority increased by the arrival of two
senators from Idaho. Then will come
the tug of war. The first fight will be
over the adoption of Senator Aldrich's
amendment to the rules giving the ma
fjority OF power to close debate. Sena-
I tor Edmunds, in an interview on this
subject, published in the Post this
morning, says 1.-THE constitution pro-
vides, and every constitution Of gov
ernmeDt that is to be carried on must so
provide, that the majority of any legis-
slative body has to do its business. 1t nee
Iessarily implies that no minority,
whether of one or of any other number.
should or could unduly obStruct the eX-
preston of the will OF the majority. 1t
is not question Of whether particu-
lar measure should be passed or de-
sfeated, but it is question
! whether the majority of legislative
body can have the power to come to the
disposition of any subject that is before
it otherwise than at the will of MINOR
iity composed of one or more. In times
OF extreme puOllc danger every lover Of
his country would agree that traitor
.Ous minority should not have the power,
zand could not, if there be anything i'm
the power of majorities. to indefinitely
delay the action which the emergency
might require to be made, as has at times
lhappened. The just liberty of debate
sto which every representative of con-
sstituency. whether the whole people of
a state or the people of a congressional
district, is entitled. ought to be
continuously maintained; but lib
erty. of debate is one thing, and
liberty of obstruction and pre-
venting a legislative body coming to
/ any conclusion whatever upon the SUBJ
sect before it is quite anotheh The rule
proposed is not rule to compel particu-
lar dissemination of any question. Itis
rule to provide that after what the
majority consider to be areasonable uni
versal debate that majority, whatever
may be its opinion in respect of the
disposition to be made of the
measure, shall be enabled to dis
pose of it one way or the other.
saving to every member of the body the
right to express his own opinion upon
it within given time. How any man
of any party can find fault with such a
provision l am unable to understand.
'The common parliamentary law"
said Senator Edmunds, taking small
