Garn-,a nua the s.Iar, Gra..

Glen. Garfield is mainly responsible
for the famous hack pay salary grab.
The history Of the steal briefly told by
the New York Sim is rs follows:
Gen. Benjamin F. Butler reported a
hill from the judiciary Committee Feb
ruary 9TH, 1878, to double the pay of the
President and increase the salaries of the
Vice President, Cabinet, Speaker,
Judges of the Supreme Court and menu
hers of Congress. This scheme had
been thoroughly canvassed, and wanted
favorable chance to be launched.
Three days later Gen. Butler movel to-
suspend the rules 50 as to attach this
bill as IA rider" to the miscellaneous
appropriation I'LL then pending. Ii was
beaten by thirty-nine majority, which
included some of the strongest friends
of the proposed plumber, who voted that
way for effect. The fire was thus drawn
and Butler knew where to plant his
batteries. The legislative appropriation
ball came back to the House Feb. 9th,
loaded with one hundred amendments.
The natural course was to have them
printed 81 that members might exam
inc the new items. But there was a
game to play, aud Garfield took the
lead. BY virtue Of his craftsmanship
he moved that the House resolve itself
into committee of the whole on the
special ORDER
Suspicion had been awakened, and
adjournment was voted down previous
ly. Dawes was put in the chair, and
the doors were opened for the grab.
Garfield had assured members that the
bill would not lie called up that night,
and the House was thin except ON the
stealing side, which was in the secret of
Garfield's treaehery.
A special vote was demanded ON the
Butler amendment, now moved as a
"rider" To the pending bill. Ii WAS de
feated by fifty-two majority. Butler
himself voting against IL. But he I'M
mediately moved to reconsider and to
adjourn.
Nothing was now wanted tO rivet the
vote, and then to clinch il by refusing
To reconsider. The issue was clear, but
right in the face Of the large majority
just recorded, the House adjourned by "A
still larger majority, leaving the recon-
si,leratiOn alive and kicking.
The next day Buffers motion to re-
NOit-tntt W." tttNt Oh'tttf etahs 49,
Farnsworth moved To lay itOn the table
and finish the business, "A majority Of
thirty-nine answered i'm the negative.
The next vote fixed the Congressional
pay, and the bill with this gran was
sent to the Senate, and thence tn a eonl-
mittee of conference. On the last day
Of the session, Garfield reported the bill
hack doubling the Presidents salary
from the 18th of March instead of the
fiscal year, and raised the pay OF Con-
gress from 5000 to s., 800 retroaetively
for two years, with a long catalogue of
augmented salaries for public officers.
He pretended that there was danger OF
an extra session unless the report was
adopted, and told the House, 1t may
Ike an IInwise expenditure i'm some res
poets, but in some eases the increase Is
proper and ought to he made" Ii was
finally driven through by II majority Of
six
