SENATE Rayner, Dolliver and Bailey Clash Over Party and ' -Factional Merits. (Py Associated Press.) WASHINGTON', April 27. Insur gents in the Senate through the elo quent Senator Dolliver today spurned the invitation to quit their party as sociates and join the democratic party which invitation had been ex tended by Senator Rayner in the course of a speech in opposition to the administration's railroad bill. The exchange of mode compliments and aspersions amused the Senate and galleries for several hours and finally resulted In a political debate that goaded Senator Bailey Into a sharp 'defense of the minority party. Rayner's invitation to the insurgent senators made a general hit with the insurgents themselves and quite as much wUli the democrats but he had hardly resumed his seat when Dolli ver was recognized. He entered upon a discussion of the capitalization of railroads advocating the right of the national government to scrutinize the Issue of stocks and bonds of rail roads. He said the states could In no way interfere with federal control of interstate commerce and argued that the control of the capitalization might be used for that purpose. Dol liver then declined Rayner's Invita tion with thanks. He intimated there was room enough in the republican party for all elements and said it had converted a largo number of good people to its faith in the last fifteen years and said there was as much discontent in the democratic party as In the republican party. Rayner said the dissatisfaction in the democratic party was a mere matter of leaders and that the trouble with the repub lican pany related to its principles. Dolliver dissented vigorously saying the democratic party in the last fifty years had not added a line to the progressive history of the country. Dolllver's satirical reference to the efforts of the democrats to frame a tariff bill brought Bailey to his feet with a protest. Dolliver said he did not intend any comparison with the bill of 1S90 but meant to say that the Wilson bill was higher than the Dingley bill of 1S97 and higher than the Payne-Aldrich bill. Bailey then said: "Hereafter the democratic par ty will be wise enough and demo cratic enough in building a tariff law to lay burdens upon all classes and all sections and all industries, share tho west to guard the interests of the west to guard the interests of the wool growers nor to the east to gu.i the interests of the wool manufac turers but will keep our eyes stead fastly upon the public treasury and guard the interests of all the peo ple-" NWV ttnUoTwthTTala that unless tie ni,mvv is nronerly organized on the start, 'a large amount of work will have to be done over.
