Millin.
1.-THE Democrats and Populists control
the senate" replied Dingley.
''Is Tom Carter chairman of the Repub
lican committee?" asked McMiilin. 'Do
yeu claim that Messrs. wollcott, Dubois
md Teller are Populistss II you do. You
cut OF good deal OF the rcspcctability Of
your party"
Have no. tho Democrats and the Popu.
lists majority in the state" asked Ding.
ley. who became In turn inquisitor.
McMillin ndroitly parricd this query,
which Dinglcy thrust as him repeatedly,
by dwelling on the -four recalcitrant Re.
publican senators" and 'the swap" Of
tho biggest committee in the senate for
the "loaves and fishes that float about the
senate waters"
McMillin concluded by referring to the
necessity for bankruptcy bill, Pacific
refunding bill, n currency bill. etc, and
charged the Republican side with cowa.i.
Ice In not meeting these questions instead
OF preparing to adjourn and run away.
