An opposition here and there, Is
mnnifesting itself against the re-elec
ten Of Senator Cameron, because hC
IS no speech-maker, and cannst han
die q question IN debate on the foo,
Of the Senate. Opposition on tina
ground does not amount to a srea
deal. If such M argument haC
weight it would rulo out nearly a.
the Senators, and the largest mum
Der of Congressman, and nearly al
the mombers of the Legislatures o
the respective statos. Again the OF
position to the Senator, denounc'
him, because he has not been active
Ia in favor Of the Force Bill. Il
that particular, the Senator is hk
the rank and file Of the Republican
party. The rank and file of the par
ty is quiet on the question of tn
Force Bill. Again the opposition
to the Senator, denounce him, be
cause he is in favor Of the free coin
age of silver. In that particular th
Senator is in hearty accord will
nearly all the people. Thus, it j
plainly to be seen, that Senator Cam
sran stands nearer to the popula
heart on the leading Questions of tn,
day, than some of the people wh'
are opposing his reelection. Their
ars a number of other trifins objec
tiOns urged against him, chief among
which is the one, that because b,
has not been pressing many bills up
On the United States Senate, he is O
little use in that body. That is bah,
argument. 1t would be a Legisla
tive Godsend to tho country, if Their
were fewer bills offered, and fewe
bills passed by Congress, and by th
respective Legislatures Of the coua
try.
