'I ho ostlnnlf's In this compilation seem to
iiate been m idc laiL'ely at h.ipli.iml. . Ills
evident they fin nlsli no adciiualu guide as to
congiisslonal suitlmcnt upon this subject.
So fai as can lie li.iccd , with so many con-
giessmcn absent lot the hedlday lucess , tlie
list Is moio ottcn wiongthan light , whore-
ever it stilkcs a man whohashltiieiloeloaily
put himself on iccoiil on Ihocjuosllon. Hatch
of Missouil , lei instance , is onnmoialcd as
being in lav 01 of husjtonslon of tlio coinage
of the silver dollai. lie ; is not enl ) a stiong
Miipoilcr ) ol the Dl.iiul bill , but advocates
free silver coinage. On the other band , Maj-
bun ) of Michigan is slated to bo opposed to
the .suspension of sllvei coinage , tvh'ti he
htiongh lavois It. The entitu i'lorida and
Louisiana doleiritiiins aie bcldnwn against
Misponsion , when tbeio Is piobably not one
man mining them who. lias been called upon
to fat n an ) ole nly defined polic ) on a ( Hies-
tion which so little concerns him , 01 who
would not foci Hint his constituents would
jiistlf ) him in casting Ills tote on elthei side
of the silvoi question If theioby ho could
secuio a vote lei the nnintcnance of imnoit
duties on siigai. In point ot lad , theto is e >
much dlveif.'e'iiey of opinion on the silver
question In the piesontcongiess that the only
M'O ' piedldlon to m ike Is that nothing is
likely to be ai complislicd.
