WASHINGTON. Feb. 10, 1916.
SEM 4 w


The morning hour was, al usual, occu
pied by the presentation OF petitions and the
disposal OF other miscellaneous matters Of
no special Importance.
The consideration of the Texas resolu-
ton was again resumed.
MI Henderson having he floor, made a
long speechin favor Of annexation.
Mr. Barrow followed on the oiher side.
lie opposed annex xation as unconstitutional
and inexpedient.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.
After the disposal of some unimportant
business. MIR. 81 dell moved a re,considera.
ton Of the vote by which the bill providing
for the White House was rejected yester-
day. He supported the motion by a sem
sible speech, Ia which he proved that the
furniture of the house is not in a safe fit
for the reception Of decent company.
Mr. Hammet, who voted against the
bill yesterday, explained. that one reason
for doing so. was, tina: part of the furni-
ture had been already bought by the chair
nan oftbe committee Of public buildings,
(Nr. Pratt) This was what he called
forcing Congress to make the appropria-
tion
Mr.. Pratt thought this speech making
for Buncomb, about a hule furniture, was
q sorry affair. 1t was a great pity they
coald not find better object for their
declamation. With Iegard TO the
charge OF having bought the furniture,
btf r. the appropriation was asked,
be would pleod guilty 70 the charge. The
fact was, when he came here and saw the
wretched condition of the furniture at the
White House, he on his own individual
esponsibility. and not in his capacity as a
chairman OF the committe ordered curtains
and other necessary articles for the House.
And he would state that if members refused
TO pay for them he would pay the money
out OF his 0scn pocket. "Nown said Mr.. p
turning to MIR. Hammet, Il ask the gentle
man if he is willing to do as much for his
country 2 Loud and continued laughter,
with cries of well done Prati."l After fur
ther remarks of a sarcastic nature. Mr. p.
moved the previous question, which was.

Hal one Of the distinguished men OF the
Iocofoco party succeeded in obtaining the
Office Of chief mag gisfrate.we shouldthough
disappointed. rest better satisfied but un
der existing circumstances. every patrIol
must deploro the dcgeneracy OF the pubic
mind. through which all merit and ability
IS sacrificed. for the gra iFeatlon oil the
soitit Of misruIe and mob5cracy. Did the
.neering locofoco, who points Us 10 the de
feat Of Henry Cay by James K. Po.k. ba
look into his own ranks, and see the dis
tincuished men there defeated BY this self
same cypher, any of whom would have
been defeated by Mr.. Clay, If not wholly
lost to shame. his cheeks would be mantled
with crimson blush, and if single spark
of patriotism still dwelIed in his breast, he
would never own, but with shame and pen
itence, that in the maddening fury of party
contest, he voted for man without merit
and without ability. and own That man Of
dignity, merit and ability could not have
been made the nucleus TO which all the he
terogeneous material of the land would
concentrate.
Atthe present period it is particularly to
be regretted that the Presidential Chair is
so poorly filed. The cabinet. we fear.
will be of the same material. Our foreign
relations are such, that age, expel ience,
prudence, frmness, intelligence and politi-
