decision of the Chair put it absolutely in
the power of any one Senator TO block leg
islation, for as rapidly as computation was
made Senator could suggest the absence
of n quorum, and the roll would have to be
called.
1.-The Senate of the United States" said
Mr.. Frye slowly, with a gravity that
caused the galleries TO litter, lis the most
dignified legislative body in the world
Here he paused. and he proceeded, the
trainers of it's rules did not suppose that
any Senator would violate the proprieties
or the decencies of the Senate. Therefore.
the rule is made without any limitation
upon Senator, except his own sense OF
right
THE theory of the Constitution" said
Mr.. Quay disgustedly. ''may be as stated
by the Chair but our recent experience has
shown that the Senate is very differently
constituted" He then withdrew his sug-
gestion of the fact of a quorum not being
present, when, to the astonishment of all.
Mr.. Carey, who evidently desired to show
the country exactly how pow erless the
Senate was, repeated it, The Chair had the
rule read 1t provides that if at any time
any Senator raises a question as to the
presence of a quorum the presiding officer
shall forthwith direct the roll to be called.
Mr.. Aldrich said it was plain that that
rule, carried out as the Chair had ruled,
would destroy all action by the Senate at
the will of any one Senator. He thought
correct Interpretation of the rule re-
quired the interposition of some business
between one call of the Senate and an
other Mr.. Faulkner, in the same line,
suggested that there should be a reason
able Interpretation of the rule, and that
the Chair should not entertain a suggestion
of the absence of a quorum Immediately
following an official announcement from
the Chair that quorum was present.
The presiding officer suggested that the
Senate could give a construction Of the
rule by an appeal from the decision of the
Chair.
There is decision to appeal FROM
said Mr.. Stewart, and Mr.. Frye, having no
alternative directed the roll to be called
Forty-five Senators responded. A few min
utes later Mr.. Wolcott, who had been eat
ing dinner in the restaurant below, came
in, flashed his eye about the chamber, and
observed that only twenty-five Senators
were present. Again the cloak rooms
were deprived of their occupants. Forty
eight Senator's this time answered here"

WASHINGTON, Oct. Eff we don't
pass the bill by the first OF next week Con-
gress will adjourn, and 1 don't believe the
bill will ever pass without a compromise.
This is what Senator Voorhees, said in a pri-
vate conversation to-day. Unquestionably
Mr.. Voorhees, is the best authority upon the
outlook for the silver repeal bill
President Cleveland said this afternoon to
Democratic member of the House that if
the Senate failed to reach a vote upon the
bill by the first of next week he would adj
journ Congress and send it home. He con-
tended that Section Of Article of the
Constitution, which gives the President
thority to convene Congress and adjourn it
when the two branches fail to agree upon
adjournment, gives him power to adjourn it
under existing circumstances, which are
tantamount, he says, to a disagreement
upon adjournment, the House wants to
adjourn. but cannot do it till the Senate acts
upon a bill.
1t is generally believed that If a compro-
mise is not soon reached the President will
indicate to Speaker Crisp a desire TO adj
journ Congress, and that the House will
pass a joint resolution for adjournment or
a recess, and, when the Senate refuses to
act on IL, the IreSluent VIII promptly aus
journ Congress. Under such circumstances
he clearly has the power to declare an ada
journment. 1t is stated that the President
prefers a two weeks recess. or adjournment
till December, to any compromise which can
likely be secured This is probably what
Senator Voorhees, had in mind when he
made the observation above quoted. The
Indiana Senator, by remaining constantly in
his seat and urging an adjournment. is re-
ceiving praise from the unconditional re-
pealers, but he really has no hopes for un-
conditional repeal.

About midnight young Reed. with friend.

pass the officer at the door. but he inter
cepted their movements and courteousIy
explained that none but invited guests
could pass. Reeds friend walked
down stairs and left the hall. Reed
himself made another effort to
to get by Barker. but was told that he
could not be admitted. and on third at
tempt TO pass was led down stairs.
Barker returned TO his post and the in
truder started away, muttering threats
and curses. He walked few feet, to the
alley. where he picked up stone. and then
retraced his steps to.the foot of the stair
way. In moment or two Barker
came down and stood in the en-
trance. The instant he appeared
Reed threw the stone. The mis-
sils struck the officer on the head, just back
of tho right ear, and with q groan be fell to

was trying to see rs many patrons or
the school as he could. While get
ting in the neighborhOod Of two huA.
dred signatures he met with only
three refusals, which goes to show
how nearly unanimous is the public
sentiment in favor OF Mr.. Kelly A
very large number who have been
against Mr.. Kelly heretofore because
OF his drinking habits, are for him
now since be has ref rmed. 1t is
understood that majority of the
Board of Education are willing to ne
controlled by the wishes of the pa
irons OF the school and the tax payers
of Columbia. This is perfectly
fair and equitable way of settling the
matter.

JEFFERSON AND JACKSON

Were Opposed to Banks of Issue Both
State and National.
Andrew jackson it was who said,
eff congress has the right under the
constitution to- issue paper money, 1t
was given them to be used by them
selves, not to be delegated to indivi-
duals or banking corporations"
Thos. jefferson it was who said !:
Bank paper must be suppressed,
and the circulating medium must be
restored to the nation to whom it be-
longs. 1t is the only fund on which
we can rely for loans, it is our only
resource which can never fail us, and
it is an abundant one for every neces-
sary purpose.
If you believe in the doctrine of
Jefferson and jackson and have the
manhood to back up your belief with
your votes, what party will you be
acting with to-day? tt.
