Congressional proceeding, Mr. McKinley, of Ohio, said: This resolution, coming as it did from the Demoemtio majority in on branch of the Gov eminent addressed to a Democratic Esectttive in control of another branch, was to say the least, exceptional and remarkable. It was a proposition coming f!om the majority of the Committee on WayB and Mea&a which was in political accord with the President of the United States, and undonbtedly Would receive the approval of the majosity on the other side of the chamber. It was a proposition to compel the President of the United States and the Sec
retary of the Treasury to do that wiueu tney had always had tho power to do; to do that which they now had authority to do under
Section a of tne act or Marcn a. ooi. iet in riifiwn months, of Democratic adminis
tration that administration had called but
$58,000,000 of Government bonds for re
demption. It leaves outstanding 14U,UUtl009 of the 5 per cents extended, now known as the 3 per cents, which are redeemable at the pleasure of the Government. In view of the record of the
TtanruvrariA njirl-ff. in T10W 01 118
declarations let platforms and on the public rostrum in favor of the distribution
or sac) surplus in ine payment 01 wumument bonds, in view of its frequent characterization of the Bepublican party as dis
honest for keeping a surplus in tne treasury, in tow of the record made by its own ad
ministration, it was not surprising mat a majority of tho Committee on Ways and Means, under the leadership of one wing of the Democratic party, should insist that
what you may do under the leadership of Ool. Kandall. What a delightf ul situation it is. Renewed langhter. The gentleman from Pennsylvania about three or four weeks ago showed his contempt for tho tariff hill of the Chairman of tho Commit
tee on Ways and Means, and only tho other
day the eustingulsnea t nuimian 01 tne Committee on Ways and Means showed his positive oontempt for the attempt of the gentleman from Pennsylvania to make a tariff bill. Laughter. And so it goes. There is not a single thing upon which this Domoora tie party agrees and ia in positive accord.ex cept getting tho offices not one. ILaughtor.

down the civil-service law by a ruler upon
an appropriation cm, J. no geauouira from Pennsylvania and his wing are for the spoils. I was glad to find my honest friend from Illinois standing against that covert
Attempt. Mr. McKinloy then quoted from the letter written by Secretary Manning to the President on May 20, last, tendering tho
resignation of his office, and rroni uio President's reply thereto. From the latter
lotter he quoted the following sentence: "I had hope that the day was nt hand when the party to which we belong, influenced largely by faith and confidence in you, and in the wisdom of your views, would be quickened in the sense of the re
sponsibility, ana lea to a more narmomous action on the important questions with
which you have had to deal.
That, said Mr. McKinley, was tne way
the President felt on May 28. How would he feel alter this resolution of censure,

How many men and women sacrifice
their own hopes and ambitions, their strength, and life itself, to their chfldren, who receive it as a matter of course, and begrnde a caress, a word of gratitude, in payment of all that has been given them. Boys, when yon come back from college, don't consider that your only relation to your father is to "get as much money as the 'Governor' will stand." Look at his gray hair, his uncertain step, his dim eyes, and remember in whose service he has grown old. Ton can never pay him the debt yon owe, bnt at least acknowledge it before it is too late. Youth? Companion.
A irew movement has been Inaugurated in New York and vicinity which promises important results. It is called "The King's Daughters." The first band was organized in January. Several ladies met and decided to organize a sisterhood of service to consist of various bands of ten, under the general title of "The King's Daughters." Already over one hundred separate "Tens" have been formed in New York, and at least one-quarter of that number in Brooklyn. These earnest, zealonB women are engaged in the Master's field, earing for and clothing the needy, modest poor, ministering to the sick, and endeavoring to find employment
for those out of service. In this
manner they reach many whom the chnrehes fail to unearth, finding a particularly froitfal harvest among their modest, shrinking, and quietly suffering sisteTs.

Mr. McKinley But you never passed ifc Yon had control of the Committee on Bulea. Vm inld have fixed a time for considera
tion, as you did now. You had a larger aworitv than you have now. Whatever
Sin may have done in committee, or atmnted to do on the floor of the Honse,
one thing is certain, you never did adopt a resolution taking that discretion from a Be-
rmhlican President and Secretary.
Mr. Morrison I was ore vented by the co
operation of Democrats with that side of tha Honse.
Mr. McKinley That is, the two wings of the Democratic party were not in harmony at that time riaushterl. and one wing, with
the aid of Kepublicans, prevented you from taking the statutory discretion away from the Secretary. But now when you have a President and the Secretary of the Treasury,
both wings of the JQsasgiaatieparty unite S denouncing them for not calling in the bonds and absorbing the surplus. Laughter. It is not to be wondered at. The campaign of 1884 was waged and won on the howl all over the country that the Bepublican party had $600,000,000 of idle surplus in the Treasurv, and would not pay their honest debts. Governor Hendricks stated that all over the West. I have no doubt that my Greenback friend from Iowa (Weaver) said it all over his State. I know that the distinguished gentleman from Pennsylvania (Kandall), in his famous speech at Nashville, when he was making ms triumphttl tariff march through the South from Atlanta to the sea laughter, carrying the banner of protection I know that he said there was $300,000,000 of surplus in the public treasury, and that the administration of Grover Cleveland would take it out and pay the Government debts wtthifc , Mr. Kandall I am beginning in that direction now. Applause on the Democratic side. Mr. McKinley Yes: you are beginning, but it is sixteen months after your administration has failed to do it. Laughter. You
bays not ootverv far alone yet. suppose
this resolution passes the House. Suppose
it passes the senate, to give it any sort or. force it must have the approval of the President of the United States. Laughter. You are asking, by this resolution, that the President shall do what for sixteen months he has refused to do. He will lay down the pen. which to him has been mightier than the sword laughter, and he will use that pen for another purpose. He will veto your bill, and the surplus will yet remain in the Treasury. If this is mere play of politics, a mere play for position, you are welcome to it, when your own Secretary of the Treasury solemnly tells the Chairman of the Committee on Ways and Means that if this resolution passes it will impair the public credit, shake public confidence, and destroy the good financial name we have enjoyed so long. And he says another thing that this resolution means a trenching upon the 9100,000,000 which is kept as a redemption fund for the greenbacks of the country, and he asks you not to do it, and yet you do it. This Congress seems to be given to doing just what the President does not want done. If there is anything on which the majority of the House and the President are in accord I would like to know it. Laughter, during which a Ilepublican suggested that they were in accord on pension itnAS.l
Tn hie annnal messaoe the President

you to reti e the greenbacks; he asked you in ananend silver coinaee: md finally he

But can he, in the nature of things, know the wants of the people as well as 300 other men coming from all the various localities of the nation? If so, where is the propriety of having a Couress? That the constitution gives the President a negative on legislation, all know; but that his negative should be so combined with platforms and other appliances as to enable him, and, in fact, almost compel him, to take the whole of legislation into his own hands, is what we object to is what General Taylor objects to and is what constitutes the broad distinction between you and us. To thus transfer legislation is clearly to rake it from those who understand with minute
ness the interests of the people, and give it to one who does not, and cannot, so well understand it."
The Shotgun Policy. In the five Southern States where the colored population preponderate to wit: Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and South Carolina two Bepresentatives in Congress represent 8,000 votes oach; one, 9,000; two, 10,000 each; four, 11,000 each; seven, 13,000; six, 14,000 each; three, 15,000 each; three, 16,000 each; one, 17,000; two, 19,000 each; two, 20,000 each; two, 22,000 oach; two, 24,000 each; and ono, 30.000 votes. In these States the average vote in all the districts is 16,214. In tho Northern States the average vote is 35,149. Thus we have this result: Ohio, with a total vote of 780,011, is represented by 21 Congressmen, while the States of Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, and Florida, with a total vote of but 769,536 are represented by 45 Congressmen. That is, it takes more votes to elect 21 Congressmen in Ohio than it does to elect 45 Congressman In the States named. And this dis
parity might bo prolonged indefinitely. In h fiva Southern States which I have
named, at the time of the election in loci Ann nnn , ' . . i fll 1 ,.1.1
there were tiao,3xs wniie vomjhs iuo wmi vote cast, as I have shown, was 709,536,
thus showing that prooaoiy dot o,it coinraa mm voted. In these five States there
were 1,242,424 voters. Only 586.134 voted, wWl tha non-votinEt voters were 656,290.
But why pursue this uivestigation? The
nnlitieal nower or ine duuui io-uay i
wielded by a minority of the voting popula- j tion. These figures show that tho effect of the. shot-gun policy has been to put on end to the voting tendencies of a large per cent, of the population of these Southern districts; for one thing is certain either these

Mr. Cleveland roundly lectured Congress for its carelessness in investigating pension claims, saying that the claimant under the bill had never applied for a pension to the department. The next day a Bepublican Congressman exhibited to tho House tho papers in the case, taken from tho files in tho Pension Bureau, enveloped in their official jacket.
