THURSDAY MukNING, Dec- 20, ’77
'I he Republican .’Hudtile.
Our fraudu'ent president, B. B.
Have*, seems to i>e having a hard time
of it. He is realizing to the fullest ex
tent the scriptural declaration that
“the wages of sin isdoath.” Hts nomi
nation, ; n the first instance, was not
very palatable to the few more promi
nent leaders of the party, who, them
selves, had a covetous eye on the
whi'e house. The mothy hue of hi
cabinet, his just and conciliatory poli
cy towards the south, and his efforts
to reform some of the abuses within
his owu parly has still further alien
nod those who from the s’art have
l orn predispi aed to grumble and
growl, so that he is now almost with*
oji a followisg, nominally ir. power
tint powerless.
Roscos Cot kling, Senator from New
Yotk, and one of the bitterest and
most implacable of the bloody-shirt
tribe of republicans, is the great or
ganizer and leader of the opposition
At present he seems to be the “upper
dog in the fig'it,” and, while he
shakes and worrys the poor president
with mote than bull-dog fieiceness
and 6avagoiy, his biistlesare specially
rensitive to the presence of William
Ai. Evarfs, the hermaphrodite secreta
ry of state. It is thought by some
that one of Conkling’s objects is to
make a sort of’ political Jonah gof
Evarts, by raising suchja“storm las to
force Hayes to throw him ovorboard
in order to save his ship.
Very recen’lv, by jhe .aid of a few
northern democrats, the New York
Ajax succeeded in defeating two iur
portant nominations |jmade by the
president. The ostensible ground for
the opposition was that there was no
cause for the removal of the officers
whom the nominees were to disp'ace*
but probably the real reason of it was
that one, ot them, Mr. Roosevelt, led a
formidable and successful opposition
to Conkling at th n Cincinnati eonven*
tion. The southern democrats in the
senate, with Gordon*in the lead are
supporting the admit istiation, ro far,
having as yet ftund no s cause for op
position.
What will become of Haves in this
conflict it is impossible to foresee. We
hope he may be able to “tough it out’’
for one more year. At the end of that
time the democrats will be w power in
both houses, and can afford to 1 oost
him along as a figure head, though n
not vory ornamental one it is Hue, to
the end ot his term.

The quarrel Between Senators
InuidiMi and 'loukliiig.
Special Dispatch to the Constitution.
Washington, December 15.
The town was considerably excited
last night and this mornirg over con
flicting reports and rumors of some
EXCEEDINGLY SHAhP WORDS
between Senators Gordon and Conk
ling during the executive session of
the seme yesterday, 'ihese leports
and rumors, however, were very con
flicting, snd it is a most mqossible,
even at this writing, to get tlie correct
version ot the affair. It seems that
there was
MUCH BAD BLOOD
after the confirmation ot Wade ns col
lector of rev< Due in Georgia, and Gen.
Gordon interrupted the order of (>u i
ness by moving that the nomination of
Smith as collector of customs at Mo*
t ilo he taken up. Spencer had I een
holding these Alabama nominations
back. The Post continues the scene.
Fma'ly, Conkling, in his most impe
rious and dictatorial way, interrupted
Gen. Gordon with the remark:
“Oh ! go on with the calendar,”
Gordon immediately rebuked the
insult by saying that the senate was
conducting the public business and
tt e senator from New York had no
right to
DICTATE TO THE VICE PRESIDENT.
Every senator heard the remark
hut Conkling affected not to ..ml
the senator from Geo gia what
he said, thereupon Gordon replied dis
tinctly and firmly:
“I said that tho senator fiom New
York had no right to give orders to
the vice president.”
Then Conkling rose to his foet ard
said, excitedly:
“If the senator from Georgia stated
that I was giving orders to the vice
president, he stated what is not true.”
Goidon, exasperated both by Conk
ling’s words and manner, repeated,
with some warmth, his previous asser
tion, and Conkling, more warmly and
insultingly, repeated his. Of course
there was
INTENSE EXCIT! MENT IN THE CHAMBER.
It wus apparent to all that Conk
ling intended to come us near giving
the lie direct as ho could without giv
ing it, aud every car was stretched to
dear Gordon’s reply. It came, firmly
and distietly:
"Very well, we will settle that.”
“Yes,” answered Conkling, “we will
settle it bore.”
“No,” replied Gordon, with much em
phasis, “we will not settle it here.”
VARIOUS VEliSlojgp.
A special dispatch to Baltimore
says that Mr. Conkling retorted:
“Here or elsewhere.” There are hall
a dozen versions of the affair, ull more
or less partizan. Senators who can be
implicitly behaved decline to converse
on tlie subject.

IN THE SENATE.
Washington, December 15. Mr.
Paddn.-k, ot Nebraska, inquired if it
wou’d be any violation ot tfie agree
ment made yesterday for the senate
to proceed to tho consideration of ex
ecut v.i business.
The Chair (Mr. Ferry) ruled that it
would be a violation.
Mr. Sargent—l think so, too.
TUE GORDON CONKLING ROW.
The motion for an executive session,
theiefore, was not made. Air. Thur
man, of Ohio, said there was a matter
which he was authorized to state
would he brought to the attention of
the senate. He therefore asked that
the doors he closed under the 64th
rule and (he motion was un ninuusly
agreed t Rule 64 provides that, on
a motion made and seconded to close
tho doois ot the senate on the discus
sion of any business which may in
the opinion of a seuator, require secre
cy the presiding officer shall direct the
gal'eries to he cleared and during the
discussion of such motion the doors
shall remain clc-ed. This motiuu
was submitted for the purpose of con
sidering the difficulty between Me-srs
! Gordon and Conkling in the executive
tj.ssijn of yesterday arid after the
doors were re. pened the following pa
per was made public:
IHE MISSUKDIUtSTANDIhG ADJUSTED.
During the secret session Mr. Ham
lin offered the following, which was
unanimously agreed to: Whereas, a
misunderstanding having arisen be
tween tho Hon. Roscoo Conk ing and
the Hon. John B. Gutgon in the couso
of tho executive proceedings of
yesterday, and mutual understanding
thereon having been arrived at as set
out in the following paper, it ig order
ed that said paper he entered at large
on the legislative journal of the senate.
During an executive session of the
senate held yesterday, words were ut
tered both by Senator Gordon, of
Georgia, and by senator Coukling of
New York, which were mutually felt
to bo unkind and offensive, reports ot
the incident appearing in the p,:p*rs
of this morning which aro iuni curate
and unjust to both speakers Upon a
careful inquiry as to what was said
ty each speaker, and what was under
stood to be said by the other, it is
certain that the first offensive words
wars inspired by
AN UOKEST MISCTODERSIAJiDISG
of what had been innocently said by
the other speaker. One haish ren atk
provoked ano her, as too olten imp
pens, but all that was offensive was
the outg owth of tuixap) reheunn —
Since sue was the tact, we arc mutu
al fiiendaot both senators. We are of
lh n opinion ih.it it is due alike to the
speakeis that what ever was felt to be
urikiod and i tf-nsive in the remarks
of either sh- uld tie treated os if never
uttered and we are now authorized to
s'a‘e are mutually and simultaneously
withdrawn.

Tlie social hop at Mr. James Dan

The ladies have veiy generously made

the “ballot box” will fie found, iu
which the young mso can cast their

The young people of Morgan have
organized a dramatic club styled the
“Morgan Amateuis,” and expect dur
ing 'he Cluistnias holidays tu lavorthe
public with oue or more entertain

best histrionic talent it was possible to
secuiejin that town ard neighborhood,
and they have been, fur several weeks,
undergoing a thorough course of
training and preparation. Wg have
not attended at v of their rehersnla and
therefore cannot pass ~pon the merits
of the dramas to fie acted, or the tal
ents of the ac ors but we areinforined
that tlie “plays,” they have ..hasen are

“Amateur Dramatists,” are iast be
coming proficient in their respective
parts.
As it is the purpose of the club to
donate the proceeds of inch entertain

serve and shall receive ag-nerous and
dbeial patronage. A fuli text of their
