ONE of the most detestable things
that has been done in congress was the
preventing Of quorum for several
days after Mr.. Bland made a motion to
limit debate on tho seigniorage bill
The eastern members, both democrats

action on this bill and broke the quor-
um by remaining absent. When any
section of the country. as it is repre-
sented in congress, get so low as to re-
sort to such methods the dangerous
limit is not far off. Mr. Bland was
compelled to withdraw his motion by
this coercion in one of our boosted leg
