During: the debate some criticism of the proceedings in the senatorial election in Ohio from DeArmond called forth a. warm defense of Hanna from Mahany (Rep.) of New York, Something He Cannot Understand. When DeArmond got the floor he began his criticism by reading the telegram sent by Hanna to President MeKinley: "God reigns, and the Republican party stil! lives." The telegram, said he, was unique.

That God reigraed there was no room to doubt; the latter clause of the telegram was the more wonderful. With cutting irony he proceeded to read and comment on some of the telegrams of congratulation sent to Hanna from this city, including those of President McKinley. Senator Haivley and others. Commenting; on the president's telegram lie asked how the return of Hanna could be beneficial to the country, save in an example to be avoided.

Then with denunciation of Cleveland the speaker declared that the bosses formed a -Wo'l to "Syndicate the presidency, when Hanna blocked their plans. The presidency at that time WB.S sure to go Republican, because "the conscience of the Democratic party had risen up and hurled down to oblivion Cleveland and Clevelandism." Cannon LikeR Treachery Rebuked.

Cannon of Illinois expressed his gratification over the election of Hanna. It was a triumph of the majority arid of political honesty.
