The bill, with its Senate amendments,
Mr. Allen. of Nebraska, said he e5Wanted
tba Renublicans distinctly to understand
that he. and those who believed win
him, were hostile to the pending nnan-
cial bill and would be to the end
."rhe Republ;cans,'' he declared, hao
violated every pledge they hsad eses 11s'uS
on the financial question
Mr. Money of AIississippl. replied 10
the speech OF Mr.. Pritchard, OF .NorIh
Carolina, relating to the proposed an1eha7
ments to the Constitution OF North tar :
olina. He maintained that tEe pp proposso
amendment was constitutional.
Mr.. Morey held that the whole con-
stitutional amendment on suffrage would
! stand or fall as a whole. This opinion,
was controverted by both Mar. Davis and
Mr.. Pritchard, of, North Carolina
Mr. Money said he did not believe the
negro could be educated to such a con-
dition as would enable him to carry OH
such a government as ours.
eff, he declared, '.any State can re-
lieye itself of this incubus nobody here
ought 70 place an obstacle in it's way.
..The people Of the South said MT.
Money ..are Justified and 1t would De
inexcusable If they did not take every
means permitted to them by the Con-
stitution to retain in their hands the
power of government, in the interest OF
Justice, OF right. and of civilization.
Mr.. Chandler inquired how he would
defend the Sonth's retention of IT'S pres
emf renresentattves in the Electoral Col
lege in case the colored population Should
not be permitted to vote.
Mr.. Money replied that the basis OF a
States representation in Congress ana
| in the Electoral College was based on
population and not on votes cast
In a colIoquy between Mr.. Money and
Mr.. Chandler the latter alleged that the
passage of the fifteenth amendment TO
the Constitution was due to the re1ec-
ton by the Southern States of the four
teenth amendment.
Mr.. Money said this whole question
had been opened by Mr.. Pritchard's reso-
| luton.
VEHEMENT RETORT.
AR Chandler retorted with much vehe-
| ncnce that the whole Southern question
had been opened by the remarkable
speech of Mr.. Morgan in which he had
( mistnkenlysn igne1 the people or the
| entire North. He read that passage OF
My Morgan's speech IN which ne Hdd
charged that the civil war had been pre-
| cipitated by the designing politicians et
the North with the idea of thrusting tupol,
| the epeope of the South the negro III Soeiels
| and political equality
| s.I denounce that, shouted Air-z eh,.iiu, .
Ter. ..as a SANDER upon the North and -
Mr.. Pettus, of Alabama: IF the sena-
tor will permit me--would it not be petter
would It not be more decent fc: hfm %
wait until the Senator (Nir. Norsan) re-
turns, before criticising him?
Mr.. Chandler continuing: intent 20
wait. but want the Senator from -aih-
bama, who is absent: I want, the 1uE.os
| Senator from Alabama, who is now mere,
and I want the senators from the Southesn
| States who have reoDened This cuesion
which I supposed was forever dead m the
senate-to tell me whether the North IS
to be expected to allow a charge n'1Se nc
upon this floor to go unanswered that tti's
war for the Union, which was q war
| growing out of Northern DISCRIMINATION
TO prevent the extension Of slavery INTO
| free territory was war OF ambitious amote'ols
r,oliticians with "a cruel design TO OUT
| negro slaves on political and sociai
| footing of equality with the southern
whites Now if the Southern senator's S
wish to discuss that question. they VIII
have plenty OF time before this session
That ended the incident and the Senate
then adjourned until Monday.
