word was - good = bic bond, uam Of
whom Massachusetts, was proud. He de-
MED there was any money 10 Ames' Gales of
stock 10 member. He ridiculed the charge
of bribery In connection with these trans.
actions. 1T was the most peculiar style Of
bribery he ever heard Of. He (Ames) rock.

Speakers gsvcl than under the hammer Of
any suctioneer in the world" This, Is we'll
- several other points 10 the speech, were
understood to DO directed at Blaine. He
called attention 10 the legislation Of 1868 and
1850 in behalf of the Pacific Railroads, and
showed that the Credit MObilicr was then
exposed and denounced ia the House and
declared It was idle to argue that the impli.
