Mr. Phelps favored the central or the Albuquerque
route and gave his reasons why he opposed the route
indicated by the bill lie contendel & was not right and
proper to coIhne the grantees any particular lire, IT
one more economical and shorter can be found.
Mr. Craig, OF Missouri replied to his colleague, (Mr
Phelp5 Who he said, thought that the thirty-hth par
allc, through Albuquerque. the proper route lie
Mr. Craig) was not OF this opinion. He believed that
the route indicated in the bill would accommodate more
people than any other He remarked that the vision Of
his colleague had become SO contracted that any friend
OF his was going to Heaven he would want him to start
from St. Louis going through ghed and Abuquer-
que to get there. Laughter
Mr.. Phelps amendment to strike out so much OF the
bill provides that the line shall go through Salt Lake
was disagreed to-ayes AZ, NAYS a.
Mr.. Smith, OF Virginia, spoke in opposition to the first
section. Names OF persons living 10 various quarters OF
the Union, he said had been inserted in this BILL as cor
poraors-the object being to create interest in this
House.
Mr. Curtis said such motive had influenced hin, and
that the gentleman from Virginia knew very well the
names OF such men only who would carry out the will OF
Congress had been elected-no hangers on around
! Congress.
Mr. Smith resumed-He said he would not give such
immense franchises to those corpoaors but would open
the books TO all who wished to subscribe, without being
| chopped of by Congress.
Mr. Stevens the delegate from Washington Territory,
advocated the erection of three routes-a northern,
central aud southern. He spoke Of their military i'm
|
experience. Looking to our supremacy on the north
coast he showed that northern was as practicable
as a southern route; the snow of the north being no
obstruction than the drifting sands OF the south
Mr. Taylor of La. also advocated three routes, being
willing to consider this question as ID its great national
Importance. 1t did not follow that al Of them would be
commenced at the time. He manifested this dis
position in the select committee who were opposee 10
either three two roads, and said he opposed to the
| pending bill in its present form.
The House voted on Mr.. Reagan'7 amendment name

Mr.. Reagan offered another amendment, providing that
three months after the passage of the act the grantees
shall meet and ascertain the amount Of private subscrp
tons necessary complete the work, to open books of
subscription, etc. This amendment was agreed to-yeas
o. nays 80.
Mr.. Reagan moved another amendment, to substitute
for the central ae proposed the Texas southern route
