THE

at length hit upon a resource for Suite re-,
venue which is likely to proe extremely
valuable. It is to levy a tax of one mill

pw
iurne, of course, that the same tax
iil be operative upon the stores bought
and told it the• Mining Exchange. The
calculation is that a tax i.f one mill on the

TUE FIGHT IN THE SENATE
Evel-y 'attempt to belittle the con
flict in the Senate will fail, and who-I
ever ! _ undertakes to measure it as
•
ordinary political conflicts are 'mess
urel will find his yardstick inappli:
cable. To the man who burrows
between the scarf skin and true skin
of things, and who mistakes the
supertiees for the cubic contents of
things—to such a person the Senate
deadloek - ,irciliab)y‘• appears a petty
squabble for ralhol• positions. But
the objcet of the ; struggle is majority
rule, while the incident is the re-Or
ganisation of the Senate pflices. There
are men who can see :that it is dis
graceful for the Republiean.Senators
io,insist on dispensing the patronage
of the Senate,_ but who cannot see
that it. is equally disgraceful for
Demoeratie Senators to insist on
enjoying that patronage. This writ
ing is not addressed to such persons.
It, is intended . for . men who. erijoy the
blessing of two eyes, and a just com ,
prehension of matters in their true
•
relations..
The fountlatiiM principle of our
system is rule .by the majority. It
does not matter whether it be a ma
jority of one o. - a majority of a
mil
lion: The principle 'does not admit
of a•sliding scale. • A majority is a
majority, and it cannot be more than
a majority under any circumstances.
Nor can: it beCome• less than that by
any possible . rule of mimputation.
The Republicans, having a majority
in the Senate. at once -reorganized
the committt es. Ti.e Democratitati
jected to that, c4n, but not so stren
uously as to. delay business.. It was
only when the . Republican majority
went still turthe'r, u it was bound to
do, propOsed to elect ()Bleep- in ,
harmony
. with the party in political
sentiment. th it the Penmen: We ini
•nority resolved to risist 'majority
rule to tbe'bitter end.
Why do the' Timm:rats resist the
election of Republican officers Y . They
had conccded dieorganizltion oUthe
Senate Committees in the interest of
the majority. They . re - cognized the
"I •
right of the!majority to control leg
islation when-they did that'.' Then
why do they, resist the full admission•
of that right? Can any candid per
son doubt why •they resist?. Is it
not because the patronage of the
Senate involve 4 . :: the disbursement of,
a good many thousand dollars, which
cash the Democrats desire to go, into
the pockets of their party Iriends?.
Does even the most case hardened
Democrat doubt 'that this' is the true
reason for 'the action of Democratic
Senators? If the - Democrats had
even a majority-of one, and the Sen
ate officers Republicans, does any
body suppose that ',they would not,
insist on putting out the Republicans .
and putting in Democrats?: The
action of the Democrats two yearif
ago is a sufficient answer to that
question. They did reorganigthe
Senate office then,• and they hid the
Undoubted right to do it. They die
missed trawl soldiers and filled their
places„, with Copperheads and bum
mers. They made the son of a .Sen
ator who was expelled from the Sen
ate for treasonable acts in 1861 their
Sergeant-,at-Arms. They brought
forward men totally unfit for re;
sponsible pksitions and put them in
the 'places of men of probity and i
large experience. They had their
own way, and though it was not a
way to boast of they had it by un
doubted right, as the niajority.party
in the Senate. The Republicans now
propose to put back the old and ex
perienced persons thrOst out by the
Democrats two years ago, a proposi
tionin the line of 'progress, - and an
act which should ,be commended by
every friend '-of efficient public ser
vice. It is time to put an end to the
bungling which has cursed the Senate
offices for the last .tso years.
It is complained that the Republi
cans have got a majority through the
treachery Of Manose, a Dettiocrat.

between them is that the Funders

Mr. Wolfe moved that the motion to
indefinitely postpone be laid on the table.
The question then' arose' as to whether
this last motion would include the bill
and thus defeat it.
Mr. Wolfe and M Ruddiman insisted
• such would be the effect of the mo
tion. Messrs. Flinn and Finance took
the oppos.te ground. The slieakei de
cided that the motion did"not include t:.e
bill. Mr. Wolfe then withdrew his mo
tion and moved to day the whole matter
on.the table. A vote was taken on this
and resulted—yeas, 61; nays, 88. Mr.
Flinn then moved to pistpone the bill for
the present, which was agreed to.

the organization of that body, and hopes
that tholunanitnity which has : thus far
chafacterized their proceedings will 'be
maintained.
Mr. Wolfe said he was opposed to tak
ing any action that may be misconstrued.
He, for one, could not appi ore-of any en
dorsetneutlof this character. If. the reso
lution is adopted, and is binding, Mr. '
Wolfe bindle would withdraw; and will
not only not atipport the resolution on the
floor of the House, but when it comes up
he will offer the following substitute

After remarks Senator Ccioper and
Mr. Myers, of Venaugo, Senator Davies
took the floor, and in a calm, clear and ,
logical manner advocated the passage of
the .resolution. Fe hoped for Republican

announced that he Would introduce a con
current resolution in the' Senate to-mor

The session of the House, on-Thursday
morning,. the 7th -instant, was devoted
wholly to the consideration, on second

priation bills, while that of the afternoon
was ,entirely consumed in discussing the

Their attitude is revolutionary. if the

they have a right to do so, but 'not at the
expense of the Nation. lam against the
amendment, because it excites a corrupt {

not even Hill or' amar,.has asserted it iii
the Senate, ' extsrpt Voorhees, and he
wanted to withdraw it as soon as be made

Mahone and bili thirty thousand people in

tAs an item of interest - to the readers of
the REPORTER, it is proper to note here
that their talented and haudsome - Repre
sentative in Una liouse;s Mr. Hillis, is
quite a favorite among theltterary people
of the Capitol City. On looking over the
columns of the Harrisburg Indfpe . udent,.
I notice that the member from Bradford,
Hon. E. L. Hillis, gave a 'reading in the
M. E. Chapel, on the evening of tbe „ritb
histant, - for the benefit of an invalidiv a
former resident of Bradford. The Ude
' pendefit •says : " Hon. .E. L. Hillis; a
member of the present Legislature, was
presented to the andienCe. His readings
were of the finest character , - and kept the
audience in a tsintinual state of hilarity ;
round after round of applause : following
each rendition." • ,
The members of-the Ileac who were
able to be present, all express `themselves
es very highly 'pleased with the entertain
ment, and have signified their earnest de
sire to haveltr, Ilillis repeat'the reading
in the Hall of the - House some evening
