More Partisan Laws, It is the universal ovinion in congress that the days for extreme partisan legislation wre over. Therc may be party legislation s which will represent planks in party platforms and issues in national cam- paizus wnich will become laws. but it is not believed that there will beany such sectional legislation in the futuro as that proposed by thie bill which has just passed the houso re pealing the federal election laws, excopt | compromise. ‘That is to say if the minority suffers the majority to have its will in the senate the latter must concede to the former something in return.

Think of a speech which would take the time of a vapia talker thirty hours, or the most rapid reader twenty-four hours. Senator Morgan spose for six days against the “force bill" when it was before the scuate in the *Reed Con gress.” His speech, when printed in indi- vidual form, occupied almost 100 broad pages i solid nonpareil type. The speech was woll designed and as carefully spoken as the best novelette, and had 1t been printed in novel form would have made a volume of 330 piges. The speech of Senator Jones would make a book as large us an ordinury work on political economy of 250 pages. When Senator Allen of Nebraska arose to speak for over ten hours the othey day his desk was covered with books with fancy backs, resembling a mass of seaside novels and school house publications. He had th pages marked und arranged in numerical order, so that when he picked up book after book there was & logic and a sequence in what he read. People in the galleries shuddered when they saw him arise bebind the mass of book because they supposed he simply in- teoded to read o kill time. His speech shows that kis work was clearly designed. Most of his speech was original and extem- poraneou e extracts from the books htted iu like citations in a law brief. Al though he grew weary at times there ap- pears no verbiage in his remarks ind that he was merely & Lime-server, Altogether the speeches which have been delivered agaiust the repeal of silver are remariable, not more for their length than for the carefulness of their preparation.
