The Washington Union speaking of the

The Washington Union speaking of the
investigation now in Congress, says:
"All agree in awarding to Speaker Banks
praise for tho judicious selection Of com
mittee, and their conduct has already fully
vindicated the justice of this praise. ii
they effect no moro, they will have achieved
great good in bringing upon the statute
book a law which will hereafter enable eth
or house to yindicate its character for purity
and integrity. It is law which cuts up by
the roots the outrageous idea that witness
can listen to q dishonest proposition, and,
whom called to testify, that he can shield
himself under the plea that he received the
proposition in confidence. The very fact
that the witness would receive such n COM
munication IN confidence places him in an
attitude so suspicious that Senator Toombs
was well warranted in characterizing the OBJ
legation as the code of "honor amongst
rogues." The law passed aboishes this
code and opens tho way to restore congress
ional legislation to that purity which it must
maintain if the government is worth pre-
serving"
