these that the amount of greenbacks to be retired

There will. of course. he no difficulty about the
adoption of this report. To construct bill that the

them is that the report shall not excuse the men
who have for the past three years been responsible

credit of making Washington beautiful city. Its
members will have 10 bear the blame for whatever
