a FAMOUS QUARREL.

Blaine the presidency of the.Uni-
ted States, and had, perhaps, not
Il little to do in sending that bril-
liant Senator from New York,
Roscoe Conkling, into retire
ment, and undoubtedly had much
to do with the dissapointments
which that brilliant gentleman
suffered in the closing years of
his life. The incident had its
origin in the house of represen-
tatives, when both were mem
bers of that body, a few years
after the war of the rebellion, a
period of time which could be
called our Elizabethan period of
politics. At no period of time
since the organization of this
government We're so many able
men in political life as during
the first ten years following the
close of the great war,
The memorable quarrel grew
ont of a debate over the gilt of a
provost marshal who had been
charged with malfeasance way
back in the later sixties.
Blaine made some asper-
sionS on the motives and the in
tegrity of the member from New
York. The writer was doing an
occasional. stunt at newspaper
work ON the Denver papers, and
remembers the ripple of comment
an the old Denver Tribune Office
the night the dispatches arrived
containing the memorable tilt.
Anyone who is at al familiar
with the history of the brilliant
Conkling, who in more ways than
one resembled that other bitter
political Satirist, John ] ingalls,,
with what a magnificent sarcasm
he Rpst have expressed his feel
ings when he declared that he
was profoundly indifferent TO the
opinion of the member from
Maine on the subject he had been
discussing, or for that matter, on
any other subject, and that his
course had been both ungsntle-
manly and impertinent, The
reply made by Blaine on the
spur of the moment is the most
biting piece of personal denun-
eiarop that was ever spoken on
the floor of Congress by one
member to another II vas the
entering wedge of political
fepd, which has become histori-
cal, Blaine said; "As 10 the
gentleman'S cruel sarcasm, l
hope he will let me escape his
dsdain. His lordly pompoSity,
ais ggandiloQuent swell, his ma
ieStie over, towering, his turkey
gobbleT strUtting have been so
crushing 10 myself and to all the
members of the House that I
know il was an act of the gross
est temerity on my part TO ven
tUre on provoking them. But /
know who was responsible for il
all. know that for the last five
weeks an extra strut has seized
the gentleman. 1t is not his
fault. it is the fault Of another.
That gifted and Satirical man,
Theodore Tilton OF the New York
Independent was over here

some serious things he put some
jocose things, among which was

prompted Mr.. Rockefeller's gift to the

to be a desire to refute the reVela-

Magazine concerning the iniquities Of
