or non-action Of the Executive or OF the State
Department ab JuE su1h matters as the recogni-
ton Of new nationality, especially a new
republic. Congress might Cooperate with those
authorities. Tne position, he said. of the Ad-
mlnistratiOn toward The new republic OF Brazil
Wgs one OF strict neutrality and supine indlffer-
euee. There was not in the message Of the
President a word Of sympathy or encourage
ment 10 the revolutionary movement. As to
the Presidents suggestion Of waiting popular
assent to tAe change Of government n Brazil,
Turpie said The revolution was not the first step,
but the last step. There was always q popular
assent before fragrant and successful revolu-
ton.
The assumption in the Presidents message
that the revolutionary Government of Brazil
has been established without, or against the as
sent of the people disclOSeS the zeal attitude of
the Administrations towards the new Govern
ment X approached very nearly the condition
Of covert hostility. II expressed partly con-
cealed but very apparent assertion even sneer
At the sovereignty of the republic of Brazil.
The time had come when the existence and au-
thoriiy OF the republic of Brt I'll coud no longer
be controver;ed in words Il could be eontro-
veTied only by war.
The Chairman of the Committee on Foreign
Relations Sherman had told the Senate it
should wait and inspect the new Constitution of
Brazil. The United States however, was not
concerned 10 know what were the particular
provisions of that Constitution The President
Of the Cnited States had been long known as a
Republican, using the word In larger and bet
ter sense, but Turpie feared in this instance the
President was very much belated Republican
in the case of Brazil
Even 8lr. Blaine seemed to linger in the
rear OF the opportunity. lie contTasted the de-
lsy in the ret ognition of the Republic OF France
in 1870 by Mr.. Washburn under the instruction
OF Pr. sident Grant. He trusted the delay in
recognition had not already led to q very seri-
Gus misconstrUction OF the Interior motives and
the intentions Of the United States Govern
ment. The resolution went over without further
action
The Senate then took up The calendar and
passed the following bills: Granting to the
State of Oregon townships q, IS 20. 80 and 81
| SOUTH in ranges and east of the willamette
meridian, Tor Il public park.
Appropiist.ng SS00,0O0 for the purchase of a
| site and the erection of a building in Washing
| ton for a Hall of records.
After an executive session they adjourned.
! The Russian eXtradtion treaty was recon-
| mended to the ommittee on Foreign Relations
| There was considerable discussion il the eX-
| eeutve session ON the clause specifically setting
! forth that the murder of or the attempt to muir
der the Car or aOy member of his family, shall
| be considered political oftense. Without this
special definition in the text ofIhe treaty it was
| argued by some of the Senators that it placed
| the Gar and the peasant on The same level and
rendered them the same protection. It was not
necessary or inst, they said, to favor the Courts
] by deciding Ior them that attempt upon the
| lie OF a member of the Russian royal family
was not political crime.
