Mr MoArtli.n i. olml oigiui Ijm-
been furred to admit that- while in
tlie legislature he voted to send a
Radical to the United Stater Senate.
Chicago is now having it* turn
with labor riot*. On Tuesday nigl t
there was an engagement between
the police ari 1 the rioters, in which
fifty policemen were killed and
wounded. The weapon* of destruc
tion used by the rioter* were dyna
mite bombs.
The Republican having tried us
hand at explaining Mr. McArlbui -
“brilliant record” in the Senate,
where he voted for the Radical
Foster Blodgett for United States
Senator, it will now be in order for
it^to explain its candidate’s “bril
liant ree iriU'in the Supreme Court.
It can be found on page 134 of the
67Iti Georgia Report*.
The Republican, in speaking ■ f
Mr. McArthur'* vote, while Sena
tor, for a Radical candidate for
United States Senator, »ays: “It
i* humiliating in the extreme, that
a move, so sagacious, «o patriotic,
should not only receive no thanks,
but should even be the weapon used
against him by bis political ene
mies.” Yes, indeed, indeed, it i-
truly humiliating, and we have no
doubt but that at this particu'ar
time Mr. McArthur sincerely wishes
that he had never done it.
The Republican says that Mr
McArthur voted to send a Kepubli
cau to the United Slates State "in
order to keep the Senate from eter
nal ruin and to retard the Radical
vampirea a* much us possible.” If
this is .Mr. McArthur’s idea of
saving the country and retarding
Radical rule, if he was elected to
Congress and a contest should come
up before that body, wc suppose lie
would vote for the Republican can
didale in order to save the Union
and retard the Republican vam
pires. This may lie fine logic, but
it is not a very practical kind of
politics.
