Avery curious sight WIS presented when
the question came up on printing the mes
sage, in the House. No Republican
vas found to urge It, and It was
left for such peace Democrats as
Allen Of Ohio, to move the printing, while
Phelps waa actually the leader in pressing
it. The Democrats all clamored and voted
for priGtipg. and assumed to be the presf-
dents special champions. The Republicans
would not go on record square against the
president, but they fi1llbustered to staye off
the vote on the main question till the hour
OF adjournment arrived, demanding call Of
House, moving to lay the resolution to print
On the table, and calling yeas and nays on
every question. The whole time was thus
used up Until the hour fixed On, arrived, when
Speaker Grow declared the House adjourned
sine die, and the presidents message went
Imprinted.
