ghe Democrat,
BEFoRE N I

A few years ago, when the Republican
party had a majority in both branches oil
Congress, and when every measure, al
most, which passed that body, had to be
followed by a white. washing committee,
the state of affairs become SO openly OBJ
noxious, that the morally degraded tools
through whom the party retained power,
began to snuff around in apparent insu-
b~ordination. 1t was then resolved to
load up a few scape goats and drive them
from camp. The great Blaine demanded
an investigation, and the Poland COM
mittee, composed mostly of Republicans,
was instituted. They first drove out one
Brooks, a Democrat, and Ames, a
Republican, but in exposing them,
unfortunately for some others, they
laid bare the record of certain "great
and broad minded" men, among whom
were Schuyler Colfax and James A. Gar
field. Upon that occasion the Poland
committee offered the following:
FROM JUDGE PoLAND's REPORT, FEB. Is,
1873-GARFIELD's TESTIMONY PERJURED.
The facts regarding Mr.. Garfield, az
found by the committee, are that he
agreed with Mr.. Ames to take 10 shares
of Credit Mobilier stock, but did not pay
for the same. Mr.. Ames received the so
per cent dividend in bonds and sold them
for 81 per cent, and also received the so
per cent cash dividend, which, together
with the price and interest, left a balance
of 1929. This sum was paid over to Mr..
Garfield by a check on the Sergeant at
Arms, and Mr.. Garfield then understood
this sum was the balance of dividends
after paying for the stock.
At the same time, or shortly after, the
following resolution received the almost
unanimous vote of his Republican con-
stituents:
Resolved, That we further arraign and
denounce him for his corrupt connection
with the Credit Mobilier; for his false
denial thereof before his constituents;
for his perjured denial thereof before a
committee of his peers in Congress; for
fraud upon his constituents in Circulat.
ing among them a pamphlet purporting
to set forth the finding of said commit.
tee and the evidence against him, when
in fact material portions thereof were
omitted and garbled.
The New York Times then said "Mes.
srs. Kelly and Garfield present"a most
distressing fgure:"
