[Special Washington Letter.J CCT iIAIJ onl > boeu here two days, when it became very apparent to ine that t lie statehood bill would not be passed,' said Mr. !■ raniv 11. Greer, of Guthrie, Okla. "You cannot imagine the feverish expectation with which all of our peo ple have been reading the press dis patches concerning the legislative sit uation on that matter of statehood. It has been talked of in church and Sun day school, as well as in public schools nud all public places. Our little chil dren know that our people are anxious for their rights of citizenship, and are taught what it all means to us. "1 have been great ly impressed with the United States senate,"' continued this observant business man of the southwest. "The more 1 have seen of that body the more of an optimist 1 have become, and 1 do not long for 'the good old days,' of which so many modern pessimists speak; and speak thoughtlessly as well as imperiously and dogmatically. "Ever since the organization of the federal government the senate has been composed of great men. Of every decade we may emphatically gay: 'There were giauts in those days.' But tliat should not carry with it the im plication that there are not giants in these days also. Glance over them with hasty memory, and take up the men whose names stand out like promon tories. John Quiney Adams, in the house of representatives, hammering away continuously and diligently until he secured recognition of the right of petition. "John C. Calhoun was the brightest Intellect of his day on one thing, the right of secession; the extreme con clusion of the doctrine of state sov ereignty. He was a specialist. Daniel Webster is eminent both as an orator and a constitutional lawyer, another specialist. Henry Clay you think of as the great compromiser, another specialist. Justin S. Morrill, the pro moter of the tarift' act of the civil war, a specialist. John A. Logan, the mouthpiece of the veterans of the union armies, another specialist. Sen ator Dooiittle, of Wisconsin, famous as opponent of reconstruction, another specialist. . "There are scores of others, all great men, but these names come up first in memory. Now look at our modern senate. Where are the specialists? 1 cannot see even one. They are all big, broad-minded men; scholars, orators, lawyers, constitutional lawyers, inter national lawyers. Listen to them in debate, and their range of knowledge covers every Held of investigation and research. Specialists are not broad men, however great they may be in their particular fields. "1 do not believe there ever was in the senate a greater orator than Spooner, of Wisconsin, nor a better reasoner. Senator Depew, of New York, is one of the most plesswig speak ers ever seen in the senate or on any platform or in any,forum, these men speak readily on all subjects, and their audiences are not only entertained, but instructed. "Our statehood bill has been defeat ed by Senator Beveridge, of Indiana; but 1 must give him the meed of praise due him when great men in the senate are mentioned. He is an orator of great power, and one of the most ready debaters the senate has ever known. He is learned, and yet al'vays learn ing. He is a hard worker, and his lit- HON JOHN «' SPOONKR.

He knows more about this subject than 1 do. In fact, he knows more about more things than any member of the senate. Of this fact I will convince you.' "Senator Davis then took a volume of an encyclopedia from the shelf, opened it at random and pointed to a para graph about an obscure island in the Pacific ocean. He said that after 1 had obtained exhaustive information ' \ HON. NELSON W. ALDRICH. (Rhode Island Senator Famed as a Par liamentary Tactician.) on the topic which most interested me he would ask Senator Morgan about that obscure island, and he would tell all about it. Well, in a few minutes the Alabama statesman entered the room. 1 stated my case to him, and lie talked for half an hour, giving me full details of an intricate legal subject. Then Senator Davis asked him about that obscure island; and the dear old sen ator told us all about it; when"it was discovered, its inhabitants, its prod ucts, and a great deal more than we had learned from the encyclopedia." During the period of our contention with Chili, about 11 years ago, the •.'o retary of state, James G. Blaine, went to the eapitol, called on Senator Sher man, chairman of the committee on foreign relations, and stated that he wanted information on a certain point of international law. Jle said that he knew he was right, but he could not prove it. Senator Davis, of Minne sota, was sent for, and he instantly said: "Calvo wrote that point clearly. You will find it in such and such a book." But word was sent from the congressional library that the only copy of that book was in French, iM*d Mr. Blaine exclaimed, helplessly: '?t might as well be in Choctaw, foi I can't read French." Senator Davis said: "Take the bovk to the department, and have one of your translators fix it up for you." To this Mr. Blaine replied: "I am in con tention with President Harrison on this point, and if one of my translators had this book in his possession, the translation would get to Harrison as soon as it would to me." Then Sena tor Davis agreed to make the transla tion himself. During the following night the statesman from Mrunesota sat up and translated a whole chapter into exquisite English, and took it to Mr. Blaine at his residence about eight o'clock the next morning. Mr. Blaine scored such a triumph over President Harrison in his bril liant interpretation of international law, covering all of the poin's in issue, that the breach between lla.-rison and Blaine was so widened as to culminate ultimately in Blaine's dramatic with drawal from the cabinet while the re publican convention at Minneapolis was in session. Following the substantial and ap propriate views expressed by the vis itor from Oklahoma, one must make mention of the great senior senator from lowa, Mr. Allison; the marvelous parliamentary tactician from Rhode Island. Mr. Aldrieh; the almost incom | parable orator and tariff statistician I from M iehigan, Mr. burrows; thegreat I political general, Mr. Quay, of Pennsyl j vanin; the shrewd business man and political organizer, Mr. llnnna, of Ohio; the authority on interstate com merce, Mr. Cullom, of Illinois; the watch d of the treasury, Mr. Cock rell, of Missouri. And there are others. Mr. Allison and Mr. Cockrell have served together 1 >on the committee <in appropriations for so many years that they probably know more substantive facts about the workings of the executive depart men t s of the government than any of their r colleague*. They know exactly, to a penny, how much ought to be appro priated for each department, and they i insistently oppose all appropriations I which seem to theinito be in the least ; degree extravagant.
