great convenience to the people of such district; an
instance OF which he referred to the location OF Land
Office at Cincinnati, where the people the habit
going on ler ordinary business. He knew OF but
Office that had been removed by order OF the Executive
aud this had been done at the suggestion of an individual
who sought wreak his on nerson no had
offended hl and had occasioned great and
discomfort. The other feature OF the bill TO which MIR
" was opposed, the placing OF absolute discretionary
power In the President TO change the location Land OF
hces at pleasure He would place such power in tue
hand OF no
Mr. Irwin advocated the Bill As to the consolidation of

discretion OF the President, nasmuch the power must
be placed in the hand OF individual TO whom could
