when Mr.. Jones of Arkansas suggested that It
was time TO adjourn. Mr.. Allison made no OBJ
lection TO that. but intimatcd. that the Senate
might moet an hour earlier each day. To that Mr..
Jones said that tho Democratic Senators could
not agree. They had. he said, done the best
they possibly could in tho consideration Of tho
bill, had not delayed for n moment. and had only
devoted TO It's discussion the time absolutely
necessary. They ought to have n right to show
up the inequalities and injustices Of the bill.
and they had been doing so in good faith.
"No harm in the suggestion said MIR. Allison,
pleasantly.

Mr.. White referred to the fact that the Demo.

vote except on tho simple matter Of "anvils I"
to-day, and said that he hoped tomorrow to get
some equally favorable votes.

Mr.. Chandler suggested to Mr. White. in a
tone of sarcastic levity. that the Senator from
California should display colOrs, SO that 1t might
be known from day to day whether he was for

and white when he was for It. Otherwise Sen.
ators could not tell which side he was on.

Mr.. Whites retort was that when the red flag
was displayed the New Hampshire Senator al
ways took the floor.
After some further light badinage the bill was
laid aside and the Senate adjourned.
