The whining IhsmocraU Du are groan
ing over the straightforward, honest jus
tice they are receiving in Congress should
urn their eyes upon the Democratic
legislature of Ohio to see a genuine
" fraud and revolution." It adds to fraud
forgery and trickery of the lowest order.
The iwue joined in the House of Iiep
resentativea is a very plain and simple
one. Speaker Meed holds that legislation
cannot be blocked indefinitely by an
endless chain of dilatory motions, and
the Democrats insist that it can. This is
the w hole matter in a nut-shell.
Tut: Republican majority in the House
of l)reM'ii!atives was increased by one,
Monday. A nother rascal was turned out.
The Smith Jackson contest was decided
by awarding the scat to Smith and on
seating Jackson, to w hom had been given
the certificate from West Virginia. The
vote stood ayes, nays none, the Dem
ocrats refunine to vote.
The people of the 1'iiited States elect
ed a lie-publican insjortiy to the Fifty
tirst Congress. Having done this;' they
eipect that wisjority to shape the legisla
tion of that Congress. The attempt of
the Ieniocratic minority to block all
legislation of which it does not approve,
is another characteristic illustration of
the Democratic t'ontempt for majority
rule.
At last the contested case of Smith
against Jackson has begun to be argued
in the House on its merits, and a vote
iion it w ill undoubtedly lie reached this
week. The evidence for Smith is so clear
that he w ill, of course, lie seated. After
thii case is decided, the other contests
should be taken up us soon as possible.
The House should consist of the men
w ho were fairly elected as Representa
tives of their districts.
The old-fashioned way of robbing a
hank was to break in at night, but the
most approved way, as practiced in New
York last week, is a great improvement
on that primitive method. Instead of
using a jimmy and the other tools of
burglary, the style now is to buy a con
trolling interest in the stock and then
pillage the vault at leisure. A week or
so ago the Sixth National of that city
was one of ttie soundest financial insti
tutions in the country, but now it is in
liquidation, having narrow ly escaped be
ing swept clean of assets.
Mux. Tkacy, wife of Secretary of Jhe
Navy Tracy, Miss Tracy, his youngest
daughter, and Josephine, a French maid,
as a result of a fire in Secretory Tracy's
house Monday morning, now lie dead.
Secretary Tracy is in a stupor, su tiering
from the effects of inhaling smoke. Mrs.
Wilmcrding, the eldest daughter of Sec
retary Tracy, is in a semi-conscious con
dition, sutlering from a sprained wrist
and soreness. Miss Wilmerdinp, 1" years
of age. Secretary Tracy's granddaughter,
is suffering from nervous prostration
and shock.
Imiston Tniirllrr: Kvery loyal heart in
this country and every jwtriotic soul that
honors the old flag as the symbol of au
thority of a great people is with Thomas
B. Keed in his noble struggle ag iinst a
new resistance to the rule of the major
ity. As Sjieaker Reed stands to-day in
the Seaker's chair to recognize a quorum
in fact w hen it aits liefore his eyes, and
so proceed to business, he is making a
reputation for statesmanship and is caus
ing to be written as history another vic
tory of loyalty over disloyalty. Success
to Speaker Red.
Ms. ISi.ai.ne has achieved a triumph of
diplomacy in effecting a convention for a
new extradition treaty between her Rrit
tannic Majesty' government and that of
the I'nited States. The liayard-West
convention failed of approval ia the Sen
ate because of its last clause, w hich was
thought by many to be susceptible of in
terpretation into aconiesence in the de
mand of (ireat Rrilain fur the extradition
of erons charged w.th political crime.
Mr. l'daine has persuaded Sir Julian
rauncefort to omit this clause and to add
others which increases the number of
extraditable crimes.
The Bayard-West convention added
only manslaughter, burglary, embezzle
ment, or larceny to the value of foO, and
"malicious injuries to property whereby
the life of any person shall be endanger
ed " to those covered by the existing
treaty. The Rlaine-Pauncefort conven
tion leaves out the last mentioned as
lieing liable to perversion for political
purposes, but retains the other three, and
add to them :
I'.mliezr.lement, larceny, obtaining
money, goods, or valuable securities by
false pretenses, or receiving property of
any kind, know ing it to have been em
beizled, stolen, or fraudulently obtained.
Fraud by a bailee, banker, agent, fac
tor, trustee or director of any company.
J'eijury or minimal ion of erjury.
Manslaughter, counterfeiting, rape, ab
duction, childstealing, kidnapping, burg
lary, house-breaking, shop-breaking, pi
racy, revolt or conspi racy to revolt against
the captains of vessels at sea, crimes
against laws for the suppression of the
slave trade.
This places twenty-four new crimes in
the extraditiou treaty, and closes Canada
as a harbor of refuge to twenty-four
clawes of American criinina's.
The treaty convention is so excellent
as to gain the praise of the generally
critical New York Tunes. Mr. Blaine has
achieved the first memorable diplomatic
- triumph gained by the I'nited States for
.maryratea.-.It j oMw-lie .doubled
that the convetiliiwk w!lUr approved by
the Senate. Jnter-Ofraa.
A Quorum Preaartt.
New York Tribune.
Speaker Reed's decision was anticipated
in remarks by TUr Tnl-xt tome time ago.
He bas found it a duly -to open hia eyes
and . for birosetf wbeiber there a quo
tum .rwnt. " Then the great Constitution
al lawyer of the Democracy lineal fcuccess
ore of those who tried to make the Condi
tion tbe left wing of I-ee'a army, went into
great pasion, and declared that the Speaker
bad no business to hare eyes.
A It fwfitrml In uarlianientary procedure
are of necessity regarded by many with some
diatrnst. bM-aiis they reverse long ewau.aiu-
ed custom!'. But the higheat law of eaeb
and every parliamentary body is tliat
ball have the right to do the business for
which It was treated. When any custom
be subversive of tbe proper
functions of the body it must in some way
b rhinnJ. no matter bow venerable u may
be. Hence it is mere wast of tiroe.to quote
Brk.r Kiwi himaelf. or Mr. Blaine, or
say precedent in tbe entire parliamentary
tiiatnrr of Con an, asainst tbe proposal
that a minority shall no longer be abie to
hlnrk nublic business by acting nnlawtuuy.
The true question is whether a change from
tuut ,-ntonn and nilincs bas become neces
sary in order to preserve to the House the
proper exercise of its functions.
t-oeaker llrt-d bai si'nniy applied common
sense to the question, and it i to bis credit
that Le bas been able to 00 so wuuoai car
ing fbr the fact that in the past he has werk
ed as a member under tbe rules and customs
as they stood, and bas upheld them, and has
striven to use them to tbe best advantage for
Hum with whom lie acted. He is now the
organ of the House. HU first duty is to in
sure the pror discbarge of its fuilctii'tis.
Ho baa become convinced tliat tne rules ana
customs which be supported in the past do
now threaten the usefuluees of the House
ss a lawmaking body, and that it is there
fore his duty to seek fjr some remedy. Tbe
Speaker is required to have eyes in deciding
which member is entitled to recognition, ill
counting members, and in the performance
.,r mint other official duties. He is requir
ed to enforce the law that the House may
compel the attendance ot members, mat
law is in effect violated by personal presence,
if not to be reckoned to make a quorum.
The House cannot compel a member to vote ;
tbat ia a physical impossibility. But the
law gives it the power to compel his physi
cal presence, and that implies tbe power to
take benefit in some way from that physical
presence.
Antiquity and long sanction do not make
an unlawful act more reasonable or proper.
In its spirit the refusal of present members
who vote in order to break a quorum was
always unlawful, if the past custom as to tbe
mode of reckoning a quorum was in accord
ance with law. In declaring that a Speaker
baa the power on bis own responsibility to
see w hether there is a quorum present, and
to require that fact to be recorded. Speaker
Ied bas supplied the only remedy that is
consistent with the right of tliebotly to com
pel the physical attendance of memberi.and
with tbe physical impossibility of compell
ing the members to vote when present.
A House of Misfortune.
Washington Star.
The old Seward mansion, which Secretary
B.aine bad thoroughly refitted last summer
and moved his family into it in the late fall,
bas always been looked upon as a house of
misfortune by tbe superstitious, and so
strong is the feeling in Washington against
it thai many of Mr. Blaine's friends urged
him to take some other house for his resi
dence. Mr. Blaine would not be persuaded,
though, and laughed at the idea that any
trouble should befall him in that house any
more than in any other house in Washing
ton. The house has a history so well known
and has been the seal ot so much misfortune
and trouble that a stigma of superstition is
attached to it so firmly that for many years
no one would live in it. It was in front of
this bouse that Barton Key was killed by
Sickles just as the lormer was coining out.
The elra tree is still standing where Key fell
at after being shot.
In the second slory is tbe room where the
atem-t to assassinate Secretary Seward
was made and where his son Fred was se
verely wounded in defending his father from
tbe a-oassin. Several tenants who occupied
the house after the Sewards all had some
form of misfortune, and after them came
General Belknap, who got into so much
trouble and came near being impeached
while President Grant's secretary of war.
Since then and up to a year ago the mansion
bas been occupied by the government as the
offices of the quartermaster general of the
army, and when Secretary Blaine came to
Washington last March he rented it for his
home. The house is large andcommodiou,
with green shutters and old-fashioned wind
ows, situated in a fashionable lrt of the
city and looki right outonthe White Hou.
Trie Result of Imagination.
Bedford Inquirer.
A special from this place, published in the
Philadelphia fVr. of the 23J instant, is a
remarkably fair semple. so far as reliability
is concerned, of the kind of stuff sent to the
daily press by corresiiondeiits from country
towns.
The bomb which tbe correspondent im
agined had upset the equilibrium of the
Republican leaders of Bedford, seems rather
to have unbalanced bis own mind.
Mr. Cessna has frequently declared that
he is out of politics, and when accosted on
this subject after tbe adjournment of court
on Wednesday, laughed at the idea.
The absurd part of tbe special is the charge
that Mr. Scull has joined the independent
movement in this State. Our Democratic
friends, ol which the V corretqiendent is
one. have wrung the changes on Mr. Scull's
stalwartism until it got to be a "chestnut,"
and now it seems they have determined to
try a new dodne. Being a stalwart would
not defeat him. and when the fourth day of
next November shall have yielded up its fruit
our lemocratic brethren will find the new
dode equally fruitless for them. Mr. Scull
is a faithful, earnest, and careful representa
tive, and his four years' service in the House
will only bave fitted him for a better dis
charge of tbe exacting duties of tbe position.
Tbe party in Bedford county is neither stal
wart nor inde)endent. but it is thoroughly
Republican and will never kick a faithful
Republican representative, even if it should
prefer to honor one of its own sons.
Mrs. Coppinger Dead.
WASiiisoToM, Feb. 2. Mrs. Alice Cop
pinger. tbe eldest daughter of Secretary
Blaine, who has been seriously ill for several
days past with brain fever, tbe result of an
attacc of la grippe, died at the Blaine man
sion at 5 o'clock this morning. Tbe funeral
services will take place from St. Matthew's
Church on Tuesday morning at 10..tn o'clock.
The place of interment has not yet been
definitely determined upon, but it is ei peel
ed that it will be at Oak Hill Cemetery, this
city. Rev. Thomas Sherman will officiate.
Mrs. Coppinger was well and favorably
known in Washington, and her death has
caused sincere sorrow. During her early
girlhood she spent the greater portion of the
time with her parents in Washington, at
tending school in a fitful fashion, as her
health at that time was far from strong.
Two months ago. after the birth of her first
child, she became sick and had been in deli
cate health ever since.
A Wealthy Pauper.
PliiLLiesat Bo. Ta- Feb. 1. Gottlieb Mil
ler is the name of an old German gravedig
ger, who, as far back as tbe oldest inhabitant
can recollect, performed the solemn duty of
digging the graves for rbillips'ourg's dead.
He has been here long enough to carefully
cover up a whole generation in the little
cemetery in tbe center of the town. Tbe
house in which he resided with his wife was
tbe oldest in town, having been built In
U 2. Tle old couple have been taken to
tbe ioor bouse. Tbeir only home was sold
for $3 to Frank Good, who tore down the
old building. In tbe rubbish was found a
box containing a large sura of money. Tbe
Poor Board bas demanded lbs money.. - The
finder refuses to give it up.
THE OLD-TIMC REBEL YELL.
It Is Heard In the House Once More,
Waskimctos, Jan. 2. Not since the days
of reconsinidion here such turbulent scenes
hren'witnessed iu the House as characterised
the session to-day. The old rebel yell re
sounded time and time again through tbe
great Hall of Representatives, while the most
profane epithets were oftimes fired at Speak
er Reed front the Icroocralic side.
After some preliminary business had been
transacted. Representative DaJaell, of the
Election Committee, moved fo take the case
up lor consideration. Mr. Crisp. f Georgia,
the lealerof the Iiemorrals on the coruaiit
tee, immediately raised the question of con
sideration. This called for a vote. The
Democrats refused to vote with tbe excep
tion of Buckalew, Covert, of New York,
Cowles, of North Carolina, and Rodgers. of
Arkansas. These four voted by mistake.
Tbey afterwards tried to withdraw their
votes, and although objection was raised two
of them were allowed to do so.
During tbe roll-call the Speaker kept
list of the members before him, snd checked
off the nsmes of those present snd refusing
to vote. Wben tbe call was completed and
the result was announced as ayes 161, nays.
2, the Sieakcr deliberately took up the list
from bis table and Instructed the cierk to
enter on the journal as present and refusing
to vote the names which he then proceeded
to resd off.
Immediately the whole Democratic side of
the House was on its feet shouting and yell
ing in the most excited way. As no one
could be beard above the other they joined
in one old-time rebel yell. Then their shouts
of 'Czar'' and "We dare you to do it." and
numerous other expressions which coul 1 not
be heard above the riotous din. When the
Democrats had somewhat quieted down tbe
Speaker proceeded to read tbe names, and
was vigorously applauded by the Republican
side
As soon as be tame to the nsme of Brack -enridge,
of Kentucky, thst gentleman
jumped to his feet and shook his fist st the
Speaker. He declared that the Sjieaker had
no right to put his name on the journal
when he had refused to vote, and that action
was revolutionary. Mr. Cooper, a new
member from Indiana, was particularly con
spicuous when bis name was read. He
jumped up. yelled and shook his fist at the
Speaker, and kept up a clatter which no
person could understand, and refused to be
quiet for seveial minutes. Mr. Outbwaite,
of Ohio, also was very conspicuous in his
protest, snd, in fact, all over the Democratic
side of the House members were on their
feet gesticulating and yelling at the Speaker.
TH E Sl'EA K EH'S COOLS ESS.
During alt Ibis time Speaker Reed kept
cool and quiet, and replied time and again
that he was merely making a statement of
facts. When a member would denounce the
Speaker for instructing the clerk to record
him, Mr. Reed would inquire whether the
member would deny that he was preent.
and. of course, as the member could not
deny the Republicans would set up a laugh.
The Sjieaker reeaiedly informed the Demo
crats that he was proceeding in an orderly
manner, and tbst they would have opportu
nity to be heard, and that he must insist on
tbeir keeping order.
Finally he concluded his announcement,
and then stated that as he had made a ruling
it was proper t'tiat he should give reasons for
it. which he proceeded to do in a very delib
erate and convincing manner. He gave the
constitutional requirement as to the pres
ence of members, and showed clearly that it
rested with the Sjieaker to determine when s
quorum was present or not. He gave such
precedents as he had found for his action,
one of which was the ruling in a similar
cae made by Governor Hill, when presiding
officer of New York Senate. When tbe
Sieaker read Governor Hill's reason for rul
ing in this way. and his denunciation of the
refusal of members to vote as '-revolutionary."
there was a great laugh upon the Re
publican side, as this was the word which so
many Democrats had hurled at the Speaker.
IMSCLTS rot THE CHAIR.
When the Sneaker first began to give his
reasons, the IVmucrats were very unruly
and coestantly interjected impertinent and
insulting remarks, but later they became
quiet and allowed him to proceed in an or
derly way. When he had finished a number
of Democrats were en their feet asking recog
nition. Mr. I'ayson, of Illinois, was also on
his feet. Mr. Crisp, of Georgia, appealed
from the decision of tbe Chair. The Sieak
ertben recognized Mr. Tayson. who moved
to lay the appeal on the table and demand
ed the previous question.
At this Mr. Crisp got excited and denounc
ed the Speaker's conduct as unfair and un
manly. Mr. Butterworth msnaged to make
himself heard, and he appealed to Mr. Fay
son to withdraw his motion and to allow
the Democrats to be beard. Mr. Butter
worth was vigorously applauded on the
Democratic side, and Mr. Payson complied
and withdrew his motion. Tbe Speaker
recognized Mr. Crisp, who then proceeded to
argue at great length against the ruling
quoting Mr. Blaine and others in supjiort of
bis position.
Mr. Crisp occupied the floor for abont two
hours, after which Mr. Cannon, of Illinois,
replied, and then Mr. Carlisle, who had kept
cool through all the excitement, made a
vigorous speech from a Iemocratic point of
view. He made a thrust at Governor Hill
by declaring that the Republicans propose
to follow the very worst of Democratic pre
siding officers.
Mr. McKinley then took the floor and
moved to adjourn, which was carried.
Colored People Infuriated.
Nicholasville. Ky., Feb. 1. A mob of
infuriated colosed people to-day attempted
to deal out vengeance to one of tbeir color
for violating the graves of their dead. EJ
mund Martin, proprietor of tbe cemetery ia
a prominent and influential citizen, and is a
member of the Board of Trustees of the
town. He has been selling lots for burial
purjxiees for years.
Recently the attorneys for the Richmond
Nicholasville, Irvine & Beattyville Railroad
needed a strip of ground sixty feet wide
through the cemetery fur right of way, and
Martin sold the ground occupied by tbe re
mains of sixty dead bodies without mention
ing the fact to sny of the owners of the lots.
Martin began to remove tbe graves yesterday,
hiring a doen men to do tbe work.
Tbe news spread last night, and this morn
ing tbe workmen were met by an angry mob
of men. women and children, aud stoned
out of the cemetery. For several hours
Maitin's life seemed in imminent danger.
The stockholders of the cemeterv will hold
a meeting to-night aud discuss the matter.
Tbe attorneys forthe railroad have inci eased
heir offers to Martin that be might ap pews
tbe people, but to no purpose?
