[From the Baltimore Sun.]
ACTION OF THE JOINT CAUCUS
The action of the Democratic joint
caucus committee Monday does not as
yet justify any expression of the opinion session, as
to the probable length of intelligent cal¬
nor is it likely that any
culation can be made as to this for
several days to come, certainly not
until there has been some decisive ac¬
tion by the full Democratic caucus
of the two houses. The determination
of the caucus committee to attach the
repeal of the Republican political leg¬
islation to the appropriation bills will
have the tendency to simplify the
situation, and it also furnishes a means
whereby the session may be much
shortened. If all the repeal measures
had been embodied in separate bills the
debate on the subject would have to go
over twice, if afterwards, by reason of
a veto, they should be attached to the
appropriation bills. By putting the re¬
peal measures on to the appropriation
bills the whole business can be done
together. The determination to recom¬
mend the retention of the feature of
the election laws providing for the
political appointment of is supervisors of each
party in accordance with
the suggestions of compromise which
have already been alluded to in this
correspondence. The be Republicans in the
two houses will not willing to accept
this, but there is to-day the expression
of considerable apprehension among
them that the Presidont may be in¬
duced to give it his sanction, notwith¬
standing the very decided position as¬
sumed by him two weeks ago. The
stalwarts will accordingly proceed to
labor with him to prevent such a
catastrophe. If the President will
sign the bills as outlined, there need be
no doubt that the session will termin¬
ate in a comparatively be short time ; for
whatever may the disposition of
some to plunge into general legislation,
there would be no incentive .strong
enough to induce the continuing of the
session after the political legislation is
out of the way.
SENATOR SHARON’S PAY.
A statement is going the rounds of
the press to the effect that Senator
Sharon, of Nevada, has drawn four
years’ pay and mileage, although in
that time he has not spent in all more
than sixty-five days in the Senate
chamber. This statement is correct,
except that it is possible Mr. Sharon
has spent more time in the Senate
chamber than sixty-five days. The
further statement that the secretary is
liable for the money paid to Mr.
Sharon on account of each day that he
was not present is ascertained not to be
correct. The Secretary of the Senate
has, under the rules of chat body, no
authority to withhold the pay of a
Senator when demanded, even though
such Senator never made his ap
pearance m the Senate chamber
after being sworn in. Absenteeism
is very prevalent among Senators, and
this has always been the case. Many
Senators appear to hold themselves
amenable to no sense of duty, but only
to their own convenience and pleasure,
going and coming as it suits them ; but
one thing they never forget, the draw¬
ing of their salaries. A Senator of
great prominence, who has sat in that
body for a long time, and who is,never
absent without good causo, said yester¬
day that he could not understand how
Mr. Sharon could reconcile it to himself
to draw pay under the circumstances.
Mr. Sharon has, however, the excuse
of many precedents, although in no in¬
stance, of course, has there been such
a lengthy continuous absence as in his
own case.
THE CASE OF SENATOR NYE.
Some years ago, one of Mr. Sharon’s
predecessors from Nevada, the late
Senator Nye, spent the greater part of
an entire session at home working for
re-election. On his re-election he
started for Washington, and the first
thing he did when begot to the Capitol
was to go in to the secretary’s office and
pocket the pay for the three or four
months that he had been absent. Start¬
ing the crisp pile of new greenbacks
into his capacious wallet he walked into
tlie Senate chamber. A few minutes
thereafter some required partisan two-thirds measure came
up, which a vote,
and, as a number of Republicans
were absent, it could not be gotten
through. At this Mr. Nye rose up in
his seat, and with that sublimity of
audacity his so peculiar and to mortification him, expressed that
deep should regret
Senators be so regardless of their
duty to their country and their consti¬
tuents as to absent themselves from
their seats. Senator Sumner, who sat
by disgusted Senator Nye, looked at him iu un
astonishment and dismay, as
in fact did almost every other Senator
in the chamber. When Mr. Nye con¬
cluded and sat down, with his face
beaming all over with satisfaction,
Senator Fessenden, who happened just
then to be in an unusually irascible
frame of mind, got up aud gave Mr.
Nye such a terrible scoring for bis
assurance and hypocrisy that the Ne¬
vada Senator could not open his lips.
As the Democratic Senators talk ot
reform in their body, perhaps it would
not be amiss if they should provide
against the possibility of parallels to
the cases of Mr Nve and Mr Sharon.
In the House no member thinks of
gettiug away for more than a day or
two Without personally asking leave ask of
absence, and very often member,
leave when they only expect to be
A CIIANCE FOE RETRENCHMENT.
Comment has frequently been made
on the expensive character of the re
tinue of servitors surrounding the Sen
ate. Under Republican rule the expense
has gone on increasing year by year
with unvarying regularity. The Dem¬
ocratic Senators have been looking into
the matter, and have come to the con¬
clusion that the force under both the
Secretary and the Sergeant-at-Arms
can be reduced considerably without
impairing the efficiency of the service.
This is particularly the case with refer-
ence to the department of tire Sergeant
at-Arms, where there is an army of
hangers-on whose principal employment
consists in drawing their pay.
