this the same proposition
Mr. Ia FoL.ETTE had 10 admit that
Il was, with the immaterial difference
that his previous amendment Of the same
character was offered to the railroad
rate bill in lpOS To Mr. HEYBrRN's

Senator did not read his roll call as
evidence that those who voted against
the amendment were in favor OF allow
ing the Judges to hold stock and be in

Mr.. Ia TOILETTE lamelv replied that he
presented the roll call -as showing eX-
actly what the record showed shall

IT, Informing against his brother Sen
atOrs Ia part Of Mr.. Ia TOILETTE = stock

Mr.. GNLLINuER OF New Hampshire paid
his respects to the informer:
want iOa ask the senator n he thinks n h quite
fair before a great audience such a. q ChAuiau.
qua assembly for the senator 20 read votes thA,
were cast In the senate when IN the very nature
Of IhinEs he cannot communicate 10 that audi.
ence the reasons that were IN the minds Of some
Of thc senators a. least who cast those votes.
As an Illustration. me senator proposes 10 make
n Impossible for any man 10 ~ % the bench Of
the Commerce Court who holds s,ock Of a rail-
road ! assume that no man would think Of doing
that ! have no idea that any reputable Attor.

VAS In any way concerted with q railroad cor
pOration, and have no Idea that any reputable

For that reason ! shall vote against the Sen

- being In favor Of permitting men interested
IN the suhieci matter Of the litigation 10 serve
on this court which am not

Ing with hls associates In this body before public
audiences and not place before great gather inEs
Of people IN this country matters coacerning
Whch IN the very nature Of ihlngs they cannot
undsrstsnd fully the purposes that controlled
Ihs vote
In justifying his roll call innuendoes
the worthy Mr.. la TOILETTE, who him
self is a lawyer and a light Of the pro-
fession. said among other things how
pat the application is 20 himself
Any criticism made BY the 80 called yellow
journals. by the 20 called muekrakinE magazines.
By the 50 called AsltAtors and dsmAEOgues that
Il not founded In fact and borne out by the record
can work no harm. no injury TO Ihis body ss
whole or TO any member init
But the record, a. Mr.. Ia TOILETTE
uses Il. is not necessarily an indictment.
a. he would have his audiences believe.
Il il often susceptible of explanations
that show that those he would condemn
have a more tolerant judgment than
himself and a superior moral courage,
but he has no intention Of turning on the
light Mr.. Ia FOILETTE's amendment
to the Court Of Commerce bill was de-
ieated, no doubt greatly to his salts
faction. for he will pull out his roll calls
again at the Chautauquas. and IL will
mean more notoriety for Battle BoB.
That is the breath Of his nOstrils.
