In congress, when the house committee

asked instructions as to whether they should
give up their evidence against Belknap to
police court Mr.. Blackburn, chairman
of the committee, said
The point is whether member of the
house shall waive his privilege aud appear
before a petty inferior court OF the country
| to testify to the public detriment on mat
tiers then pending in investigation before
| his committee? Ii it is the pleasure of
| the house that this should be done, no
man will Weld more prompt obedience
than Myself, but | do not desire to assume
the responsibility of taking that action In
| the absence of instructions from this house.
| We hold our privilege subject to the house,
and we ask if we are to waive it; and If so,
when to do it, or to tell us when We shall
withhold it, in order to promote the work
now going on of exposing corruption, con
vcting thieves, and purifying the admins
tration OF the government, which in God 8
name has suffered long enough at your
hands.
Sir, this committee has been established
for eleven years, and if it ever made a re-
port or held meeting, before, | cannot
find it on record. The transactions in
volved in this case reach back to 1870.
