Corruption in Congress.

Our report of Congressional doings
has informed our readers that commit.
lee has been raised, to investigate char.
ges of attempts 10 subsidize voters in the
House on the Minnesota land bill. Mr..
Payne, a member, states boldly that he
was offered 81, 500 for his vote on that
bill. 1t is liberal price for vote, and
the people will feel some interest in ascer-
tanning who were the parties offering to
buy votes, and who were to be the gain
ers by the passage of the bill. The
Speaker olthe House announced the CON-
mittee on Saturday. They are Messrs.
Kelsey, Orr, DAVIS of Maryland, Ritche
aud Warner.
The resolution under which the Com
mittee is appointed is in these words.
Resolved, That Committee of%ige
members be appointed by the Speaker
with power to send for persons and pa
pers to investigate said charges, and that
the Committee report the evidence to be
taken. and what action in their judgement
is necessary on the part of the llouse,
without unnecessary delay.
There are likely to be some rich de-
velopments under this resolution.
1t is due to the character of the House
that the guilty shall be unmasked. aud as
Mr.. Payne suggests that they are mem
bers they should be expelled.
There is popular belief that corruption
is no stranger to the House, and purga'
tion might advantageously be resorted tt
in this instance, if there has really beel
an attempt made to tamper with the in
tegrity of sworn Representatives Al
expulsion or two would do ga power o
good. Com. Journal.
