enough to secure a reduction of the

Z. B. Hayes was member of the

The first session of that congress COM

last session closed on March 4, 1868. OF
course all his acts while a member of
congress are officially recorded in the
Congressional Globe; and in that valu-
able repository Of knowledge, the Mil
wankee News has carefully searched for
everything set down or SAID by Ruther-
ford b. Hayes. Here is the record, and
