am not gong TO discuss that whole question
now; | am only going to submit at this late day
whether the men who did that work, the men who
threw DOUBT upon me question whether the re-
publiCans had carried Louis ana. The men who
threw into & 1fusion md chaos the fair, legiti
mate constitutional results of the presidential
election. the men who were the authors of all the
mischief that has been enacted since in that whole
matter, shall now b. paid by a vote of the Cong
less of the L nited state, for doing it For one
| shall not vote to pay them
One other thing. To this day and to this hour
