Mr.. order said this was a plain question whether
Mr. Maynard and his colleagues should be entitled TO
seats and be hoped the House would come to decision
at once.
Mr.. RAYMOND renewed his demand for the previous
question.
Mr.. RANDALL Pa.) suggested that it was not proper
10 refer the credentials to Joint Committee, as the
Constitution provides that each House is the sole judge
OF the elections qualifications and returns oil Its own
members.
Mr.. INcEnsoLL suggested that as no Select Commit
tee had yet been appointed would 1t not be as well TO
postpone the consideration Of this subject for one week
Mr. RAYMOND said if he followed the bent of his in
cnaion he should to refer the credentials to the
Committee Of Elections. He did not suppose tho ac'
on OF this House would be bound by concurrent reso-
ntion OF the two branches but he felt II due IN defer
enee to the opinion OF other members and to the action
OF the Senate. that the credentials should take the
direction which he had indicated. This object would
be duly considered in that Committee. and then como
before the House for action. His object was to secure
the earliest adm ssion of the Tennessee members.
Ar. SMITH understood the gentleman from New. York
TO say that the State Of Tennessee occupied different
position from other States heretofore in rebellion.
Would it not therefore be better that the credentials be
referred the Committee of Elections The State Of
Tennessee did everything which the Government de-
manded 1t repudiaed tho Rebel debt passed the Con-
stitutiona anti Savers Amendment, aud declared null
and void all ordinances Of secession, and sent the best
character Of men hero TO represent her; men who
in 1902 and to the close Of the have shown devo
ton TO the Government equal that of any this
floor OF Congress Every one othem elected could take
the oath OF loyalty prescribed by law.
