The holding of such views by northern men, no matter how diverse, did not endan- ger the position of certain political leaders, and conscquently they were immune from attack But when southern man, said Mr. McLaurin, tried to get the benefit of the tarift for his people those whose polit- | fcal career might be ended by the success of his efforts were ready to crush and hu- millate him, He had contended that if the tariff were a robbery his section should share in the booty. Upon the issue of that speech he had later gone into a campalgn in South Caro- lina, and although his democracy had been attacked upon the stump the people of his state had endorsed him. He declared that | during that campaign calumny, falsehood and trickery never before equalled in Amer- | fcan politics had been employed. Now the | principle charge against him was that dur- ing the McKinley admiuistration he had been “bought by patronage,” and that he had renewed his former contract with President Roosevelt. Entertalning the high personal regard that he did for both the late president and his successor, Mr. McLaurin sald it would be unnecessary for him to say that neither would he stoop to o igno- ble an act. rs the Charges. It was true that an unfortunate condition rs had exjsted in his state, and that be had recommended good men for offices because he did not desire to see a repeti- tion of the horrible affair at Lakeville when a negro postmaster had been burned to | death, He had voted for the and declared that in the same spirit in which he had cast that vote he felt that he was compelled to support the adminis- tration that conducted it. He still thought that the conduct of the war should have been non-partisan, and during its progress | he had never heard from President Me- Kinley's lips a word concerning party ad- vantage. Mr. McLaurin pald a high tribute to the late president, whom he character- ized as a “broad statesman and Christian gentleman, While without official knowledge of the charges brought against him by his demo- cratic colleagues, from the newspapers he understood that the princlpal charges were that he had not opposed the ratification of the treaty of peace with Spain, that he had upheld the administration in its efforts to restore order in the Philippines and to that end had voted for an increase in the standing army, and that he was in favor of the upbullding of the American merchant marine war with Spain, Glortes in the Accusations. “If these are the only charges,” sald he, dramatically, “they are true and I glory in them." He sald he had not wished to vote against his party on the question of ratification of the peace treaty and had it not been for the reopening of hostilities in the Philip- pines he would have deferred to the opinfon of his colleagues. “But,” he declared, ““the dictates of reason and conscience should not be stifled by the party lash.” With bitter words Mr. McLaurin then proceeded to excoriate the new leaders of the democracy, who, he safd, had gulded the party through its destruction during the last six years and were trylng to crucify those who would seek to draw the democratic party back to its old allegiance. He still proposed he said, to vote in his judgment for what he belleved to be along the lines of democratlc principles, but did not propose to place himself against a proposition which he believed to for tho best interests of the people simply be- cause it was advocated by republl Will Not Be Dri In conclusion My. McLaurin said he did not propese to be driven from his own party nor to be forced into afiliation with the party with which he did not care to ally himself and on great public questions he would act according to the dictates of his own conscience and best judgment When Mr McLaurin took his seat Jones of Arkansas took the floor. Some of the statements made by Mr. McLaurin Mr. Jones considered a reflection upon him. self and sald he desired to offer a state- ment concerning the incident to which Mr. McLaurin had referred. At the extra ses- slon of the senate last spring he bad been asked by the caucus officer for the list of senators who were to be summoned to a caucus and Mr. McLaurin’s name belng mentioned he (Jones) had sald he, himself, Mr. $20,000.

As to Mr. McLaurin's charge of conspiracy to humiliate him by barting him from the democratic caucus, Mr. Till man called attention to the fact that he bad not been in Washington during the extra seesion of the senate last spring “This conspiracy,” he sald, “is a dream conjecture bim. 1t 1 his oyn brain ster son- ) by wality of the Questi McLaurin made no reply to' Mr. Till- but in replying to Renator Jones said he did not that there should anythin rsoval in his charge that had been ulterior purpose” 1n anything he had done Mr. Hoar of Maseachusetts himselt to the legality of th which the South Carolina senators had sent to the governor of their state.

A3 s00n as Speaker Blaine saw the nature of the communication sent to him he im- mediately declared the seat vacant, thug putting an end to all further proceedings. Mr. Hoar contended that if the facts bearing upon the case of the South Carolina senators had been correctly stated it was doubtful whether they were entitled to seats upon the floor of the senate at this time. He thought the committee on privileges and elections should Inquire into the matter.
