Senator Graydon of Abbeville did not wish to express an oplslon and the same Is true of Senator Mucken- fuss of Dorchester county, but it is understood that these two men are local optinolsts and will probably vote that way when the matter Is presented.

Meantime do not think that th* Republican party is completely rent asunder by this temporary triumph of the "insurgents" and Democrat* It is true that this la one of the very few times that "Uncle Joe” has been flatly turned down In the house And the really remarkable part of this is that the Democrats voted solidly against him. If there had been anything much at stoke the old man would have bought up a few Democrats from Georgia and one or two other States to have carried the day. There are always a few Geor gla statesmen for sale for a few committee assignments or other measly crumbs from the rich man’s table. And always a few from Tam many Hall and such places. But it le no great matter this, so your Uncle Joe let it go by. But '.t does one thing—and that Mr. Can non is not so very sorry about eith er—it has lined up these "insur gents” with the Democrats. It was really a Democratic victory the oth er day, the Democrats winning with the assistance of the few Republl can "insurgents,” and it is intend ed that the fight shall be along this li^ie. The cry of "Democrat” will be set up in these Insurgents’ dis trlcts. If they cry It hard enough and with thoir usual vigor the or on a of cheating and defrauding.
