is apparently less strenuous, somewhat
less heroic, and less dangerous to the
state and the Federal Union 1t Is ev-
identity intended by this substitute to
declare in another form of words the
same principle and the same appeal To
the power OF congress to deal with a
state, as such, that is only more dis
tinctly expressed in the senator's reso-
luton"
The great senator continues to en-
large here:
THE point in both sections OF the
resolution is that congress can deal
directly with North Carolina and can
infiict penalties on her as a state, and
as a state standing by itself, If she
amends her constitution in h manner
described in the preamble to the reso-
luton.
THE substitute resolution l have
just read is not true in point Of law. 1t
is not a discrimination on account OF
race, color, or previous condition of
slavery, unless the act excludes them
ment from its terms. for such causes.
The exclusion of certain persons or
classes of persons or their descendants
can be lawfully made in many cases
and for many reasons that have no re-
laton to race or color or previous IN
dition Of servitude-
The resolution begs the question
when it admits the right to exclude
those who have not all the other
/" qualifications prescribed by law 81
from the right to vote.
Cinnamon, Japanese, and Indians,
who are citizens of the United States,
may be lawfully excluded from the
right to vote for any reason, even for
their race or color, simply because the
states prefer to refuse them that privi-
lege; yet in all other respects they may
have the qualifications prescribed by
law.
Many white persons who were en-
gagged in rebellion against the United
| States were excluded from the right
to vote by acts of congress passed
after the alleged ratification of the
fourteenth amendment. They possess
| ed all the other qualifications"
The senator spoke at much length.
We have only drawn thus far but upon
a small portion, probably one-sixth OF
the whole. He has done good and i'm
portant work for honest government.
and has fabricated a trip-hammer
that will crush to atoms the splutera-
\ lions of the little fellow who will fume

M,KINLEY AND GAGE.

OUT at once, for he is wholly unworthy.

istration had used the $59. 900, 900 and
bought a corresponding amount OF
bonds with that sum, those bonds wou
have been cancelled and the interest on
that sum would have ben stopped.
And / charge here today that the
president of the United States and his
administration are solely responsible
for whatever congested condition we
have in the treasury and whatever
alarm prevails about the inances OF the
country. Every dollar OF il would have
paid a dollar OF the government debts
if the secretary had wisely exercised
the discretion given him by law"
There is more of it. but that is
enough. The little fellow screamed and
blew his tin whistle then, but now he
has halleluiahs for his own incapable,
usurping secretary who took matters
into his own hands and went the whole
hog But this is not all OF McKinley's
own doings. He caused a special de-
mandatory clause to be introduced into
the platform of the republican party
because of the democratic policy of
loaning the governments money with
out interest to pet banks" The World
adds that MI. Cleveland's secretary
of the treasury had $685. 900. 900 in the ma
tional banks. Mr.. Mckinley's secre-
tary will have 3i2J, 600, 900 therein when
the present distribution is complete.
What a progressive party is that re-
publican party, and what a topper is

own word without fear or remorse,
