the close of the war the relations of the |
general government with the corrupt
and infamous rings which have in |
tested the southern states, has
been one continuous scandal. Crave
charges must be investigated By com
mittees of the house, and in the appoint
ment of such committees, the speaker
will have to contend not only against the
efforts and withstand the Establishments
of those who might be implicated, but
in the discharge of this delicate duty he
will meet with the organized opposition of
all the Office holders and adherents OF the
Administration with its eighty thousand
henchmen and its unlimited supplies OF
power, position and plumber. But few
among the immense numbers interested
can form the slightest idea of the nature
and extent of the corruption which has
run rampant during the past few years in
almost every governmental department.
The cry of srings," corruption" and
frauds has been raised so frequently
and uttered so often. that the people have
grown respondent and almost ceased to
hope for redress for their grievances and
an improvement in the public service.
To the next house of representatives. when
tic and pledgedto reform, all eyes were turn
ed in hopes of deliverance. The long in
terval that must necessarily ensue before
litcan convene. has given the party of the
administration time to collect their
forces, overlook their appointees and
cast obstacles in the way Of that thor
ough, painstaking, and impartial investiga-
ton SO imperatively demanded. =
The vast importance of the speakershlp
and the power that officer will WELD, 10 by
no means lost upon the large body OF cor
ruptionists who have grown rich upon the
nations misfortunes, and who, held togeth-
err by the cohesive power of public plum.
DER" are yet power in the land. Then
schemes must be defeated and their plans
brought to naught. How can this result
be attained more surely than by the cleo
ton of man who has always opposed thi:
crowd of cOrmorants. and whose expert
ence has rendered him familiar with al
those avenues whereby the very floor o.
the house has been invaded in times gone
by? Who for one momen: can believe
that with Mr.. Cox in the chair, the dis
graceful scenes once enacted upon the fool
of the house will ever be repeated? None
