This drew out a stinging retort from Conkling, who was again replied to by Lamar, the listeners during the controversy giving cheers or hisses. The excitement caused by the extraordinary and wholly unequaled interchange of denunclatory and degrading epithets between Lamar end Conkling was intense. Lamar’s last uttérances quivered with anger, and. were accompanied by a disdainful gesture which suggested the throwing down of a gage of mortal combat. Southern Senators, in conversation since the occurrence, universally commend Laimar’s action as) justifiable, and even demanded, by Conkling’s imputation of bad faith on his part, and assert that there can be no question of his entire readiness to maintain his words with his life, if necessary. Senator Conkling informs his friends that he does not intend to send Lamar a challenge, or in any way to be drawn into a duel, for neith- er he nor-his-constituenta believe in duelling. He also says that Lamar’s attack upon him was unprovoked, and unexplainable upon any personal grounds, his (Conkiing’s) charge of bad faith having been made against the whole Democratic sidé of the chamber, and not especially applicable to Lamar, whom in fact he did not have in his mind at all.

He was quite.willing to accord to others what he had always demanded for himself, yet when pressed for. an answer, Mr. Mackay was forced to admit that the $4a day paid to the miners confined the extraction of bullion to high-grade ores. Were wages reduced to $2 per day he could at once put 10,000 additional men at work upon the Comstock lode. There were literally hundreds of thousands of tons of medium and low grade ores which could be immediately utilized for the markets of the world if the price of labor were reduced one-half; but’the mine owners were handicapped by heavy taxes and high-priced labor, as well as costly machinery and expensive wood and water.
