taking occasion to defend the bill as well
'considered and necessary and calculat
ed to "remove force and fraud from the
election of numbers of the great repre
santative chamber and to substitute
the election processes, with which we
are all unhappily too familiar, tbe peace
ful arbitration of tbe courts of the
United States."
At theoonclusion of Mr. Hoar's speech
Mr. Spooter moved to refer the Quay
resolution to the committee on rules.
Mr. Fryo made rvn impassioned ad
dress to the republican senators against

every day and all night if necessary tbe
rules could be changed in three days, a
tariff bill in ten days afterward and tbe
election bill in ten days after that, but
coward'ec, he said had never won a bat
tle and never retained a friend.
' Mr. Hiscock took the eano view and
v..poeed the reference of the Quay reso
lution as leading to delay.
Mr. Edmund's replied .o Mr. Frye's
remarks and declared his opposition to
'.he muzzling process. While Mr. Ed
mur.ds was speaking tbe clerk's clock
struck twelve and tbe tariff bill was laid
before the senate as unfinished business.
Mr. Aid rich was asked to let the tar
iff bill be laid aside temporarily, but he
declined doing so and tbe senate pro
ceeded with it consideration, tbe pend
ing question being on Mr. McPberson's
amendment to strike out classifications
and compound duties and to substitute
a uniform rate of 15 per cent advalorem
in the cutlery paragraph. The amend
ment was rejected.
Mr. Paddock was the only republican
voting "aye."
The bill waa then laid aside with but
.me psge disposed of.

Mr. Funston, chairman of tbe com

proposed by this measure to open for
eign port to American meal. Bv
opening those port million of foreign
gold would be brought to this country,
and would relieve tbe em harassed con-
di'ion of all classes of industry.
Mr. Morgan objected, that the pend
ing bill did not include lard among the
product which were to receive a
oer-
lificate of wholeaomeness, and be
wanted tbe government to "go
stinking lard that was held pure.
Mr.Hitt, of Illinois, said thi
