later they could cut off his head, and so
history IS full of these fippenciss in tie
shadow Of great crisis, and in my judg-
ment We are standing this hour 10 the
shadow OF a crisis, that throws its dark
pail from the Atlantic to the Pacific
from the frozen zones of the North to
the Gulf Of Mexico, which shrouds this
continent in the gloom of common
despair in which party lines are almost
invisible and human rights are only
bought.
Now what are the Ocala demands on
hnance? They are chiefly the principles
involved in thr Sub-Treasury bill, per-
mlttlng, however, loan upon land at
the same cost
Then Col. Skinner goes into a full
discussion Of these demands generally
and IL detail-which We have not space

he proposes having printee Tor g8neral

Mr.. Henry's Position.
Mr.. Henry, Of Rockingham, did not
see what effect this would have upon
Senator Vance. | was instructed to
support Senator Vance with his known
| opposition to the sub-treasury platform,
and | must and will do it. I endorse
| the Ccala platform, and endorse every
| thing that is Democratic and oppose
| everything that is Republican. I en-
dorse the object aimed at, but I am for
Vance. We are instructed by our peo-
pie to vote for the man and not for the
measure.
Mr.. Henry showed clearly that Sena
tor Vance had always been q friend of
the people. No man who ever fought
the rechartering Of national banks harder
than Senator Vance, but no effort of bis
availed against the Republican determi-
nation to re-charter them. If Senator
Vance could have secured the passage OF
his amendment to the Mckinley bill, the
trIner's products would have been fifty
per cent. more valuable than they are to-
| day. He then moved that a committee
Of three be appointed to wait upon Sen
ator Vance and ask him if these resolu
tions would be satisfactory to him. He
was interrupted here by Mr. Adams, O.
Granville, who said that he had seer
Senator Vance and that the Senator hac
no objections to the resolutions.
Mr.. Henry continued: "We are here
to stand by Vance whether he stands or
our platform or not, and | insist upo1
my motion.
The chair ruled that the motion of Mr.
Henry was ont Of order.
Mr. Mann wants Postponement.
Mr.. Mann, Of Hyde, hoped that th
House would not insist upon vote thi
morning. | am not prepared to vot
upon this measure A member who vote
for a measure Of which he kno9s notbip
is as arlminally liable IS if he does
known wrong. | do not antagonize Jhi
measure-I am in sympathy with tn
financial reforms, but | am in such pc
sition that cannot to day vote as intel
ligently upon this measure as | desire
, and hope the resolution may be laid owe
till later date.
J Mr.. Woods Argument for Immediat
, Action.
: Mr. Wood, Of BERTHE, antagonized tn
, proposition to lay over, and made a
elaborate argument upon the reform
, | demanded by the Alliance. The CHROf
ICLE will print his speech Tuesday morn
lug.
q Mr.. Alexander's Views.
/ Mr. Alexander argued that the ques
/ | ton was to refer, and that the questio
} | of the Sub Treasury was not deb4table
9 Mr.. McGill Wants to Act.
r Mr.. McGill said that while all in tenC
0 ed to vote for Senator Vanca, the men
q ber were compelled, in justice to the
constituents, to vote to instruct hin
e We want harmony 1t cannot b9 int
c mated that there is anything in tt
|. Ocala platform that is un- Democrat
9 The State convention demanded the a
u lance principles and we can all affol
g to stand upon them. There is nothiI
s in it to injure any, and the memb
D ought to vote to pass this resolutie
$ without reference.
We do lot want any specific thin
p We want that or something better. L
le US end the uncertainty and suspens
n and it can only be done by passing th
IL resolution.
2 Cant. Watson Wants Discussion.
- Capt. Watson saw no reason for al
- haste If we postpone, there will
" opportunity for full discussion; and tn
;, Ne can pass it as we'll as now.
"a Capt. PEBBLES Argument.
in Capt. r. B. PEBBLES believes that '
le have as much leisure now as at any tin
e. aud that it is well to di cuss this que
7e ton. If [ do net fool myself, | am q
at second even to Col. Skinner in advoc'
le ing financial reform We are here Wi
Id TWO pets and we are trying to arr
" one against the other. Senator Van
if ought not to be in the way of refol
g. and is not; and the reforms ought not
to be in the way of his election.
IN The legislation for twenty years b
