Mr.. Durham-I can answer so far a!
the past is concerned. Now, how many
are there to be in the future, for thu
year ending June 50, 1875?
Mr.. Garfield number OF horses
in the future is something suppose tina
would require prophet to predict; bu
if the gentleman-
Mr.. Durham THE gentleman under
stands my question. How many have
the committee provided for in this bill ?
Mr.. Garfield dwell, l am utterly in
competent of furnishing brains for the
understanding of a statement, in addi
ton to making it.
Mr.. Durham-If / have not The BRAIN
to answer, ! have the caAdor and hon
eSty to answer.
Mr.. Garfield then proceeded to give
his views of the vast distinction that
should be maintained between an Office
holder and a private citizen.
Mr. Garfield Now, Mr.. Chairman,
the Attorney General said this to the
committee: That he is compelled in his
Office, not only by his assistants, to run
the Court of Claims on the Government
side of it, but all the cases Of the United
States in the Supreme Court, and that
there is not a day in which he does not
require the use Of horse and carriage.
Whether it should lie by what the Gov
ernment owns; or what they may hire,
makes no difference. If gentlemen
want the Attorney General to walk to
the Supreme Court on foot, or to ride in
the cars, or to go wherever else he goes
as other citizens if the gentleman wants
to break down the habit Of years, and
sweep away all arrangement for horses
and carriage, very well.
Here Mr.. Garfield boldly announces
that the Attorney General is not ex-
pected "to walk to the Supreme Court on
foot, or to ride in the cars, or go wher-
ever he goes as other citizens" He be-
longs to a preferred class of official aris-
tocracy, and therefore must not be
treated like "other citizens" Although
receiving $1,000 year salary, to say
nothing of perquisites, he must be al
lowed fine carriages, horses and gilt
harness from the Treasury.
Mr.. CART I'D speaks of breaking down
the "habit Of years and sweeping away
all arrangements for horses and car
riage" No such arrangement ever ex-
isted until he and his associates sane
toned it. And why should not bad
habit" be swept away, which is fraud
and a tax on an overburdened people?
The pretense that carriage was nee
es5ary for the Attorney General to at
tend the courts was absolutely false, and
it is well known that the Solicitor Gen
eral and the assistants 90 there as other
lawyers, and all the judges do. The
landaulet was used by Mrs Williams
Gad the Attorney General exclusively as
their private property, and the liveried
driver was on the pay roll of the De-
partment of Justice.

CREDIT M0BILIER FRAUD.
GARFIELD's CONNECTION THERE.
WITH.
Official RecOrd-PrOOf of Perjury
Committee Report.

Among the most decided in denying
his completely with the most gigantic
fraud ever perpetrated in this country
was James A. Garfield,
His statement exceeded in holiness
others more adroitly worded, SO that
the friends who confded in his integrity
could not believe he could have held
shares in the face of such explicit and
solemn assurance to the contrary. The
investigation, however, proved that he
had not only willfully falsifed, but had
added a still more infamous crime to
venality.
After Mr.. Ames had given bis first
mild and reluctant testimony concern
ing the Credit Mobilier members, Mr..
Garfield appeared before the Committee
and submitted prepared statement, at
the sitting Of Jan. IA, 1873. The SUBJ
stance of it is as follows, in his own
words:
From the case, as presented, proba.
bly, should have taken the stock if / had
been satisfied in regard to the extent Of
the pecuniary liability. But in the
meantime l heard that the company
was involved in some controversy with
the Pacific Railroad, and that Mr.. Ames'
right to sell the stock was denied. When
I next saw Amos I fold him T bod non
cluded not to take the stock. There the
matter ended, so far as l was concerned,
and ] had no further knowledge of the
company's operations until the subject
began to be discussed in the newspapers
last fall.
Mr.. Ames never gave nor offered to
give me any stock or other valuable
thing as gift. / once asked and OBJ
tanned from him, and afterward repaid
to him, loan OF $500; that amount is
the only valuable thing I ever received
from or delivered to him.

GOVERNOR HAYES OPINION
What He Thought of Such Man as
james A. Garfield During the War
for the Union. HE Said They
"Ought to be ScaIPed."

General Garfield first eStered the army
as Colonel Of the Forty-second 0. V, l.,
in the fall of 1861. A few months there
after, in the summer Of 1852, he was nomi-
mated for Congressman; was elected in
October, 1862, and, leaving the army, took
his seat in the House Of Representatives
in December, 1868.
Governor Hayes, whilem the army at
hefront, in 1864, was asked to come home
and take nomination for Congress He
replied to this request in the following
patriotic and ever-memorable words:
"Yours of - is received. Thanks,
l have other business just now. Any man
who would leave the army at this time to
electioneer for Congress ought to be
scalped. Truly yours,
r. B. HAYES.

The consciousness of guilt had betray'
ed him into these new crimes In strug
Cling to extricate himself, he only sunk
deeper, until at last pity turned iuto
scom, and he was regarded with con-
tempt on all sides. Packed as the com
mittee was to acquit, with Poland fol
chairman, yet this case was so strong
ly made out that they were obliged to
bring in verdict which substantial
ly charges perjury upon him, as will be
seen by an extract from their report:
THE COMMITTEE ON GARFIELD.
He agreed with Mr.. Ames to take ten
shares Of Credit Mobiler stock, 1t did
not pay for the same. Mr. Ames leceiv.
ed the so per cent. dividend in honds,
and sold them for 81 per cent, an also
received the go per cent. cash dividend,
which, together, paid the price Of the
stock and interest, and left a balalce Of
1929. This sum was paid over to Mr.
Garfield by check on the Sergeaut-at
Arms, and Mr.. Garfield then understood
this sum was the balance of dividends
after paying for the stock.
Mr.. Garfield swore that none Of the
foregoing facts we're true in the most
direct terms, and the committee 'ay in
so many words he swore falsely, ir that
he did take ten shares, and received the
dividends and cash balance.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1880-09-16

In the early part of 1872 Gen. Hazen,
9 friend and former schoolmate of Gen.
Garfield communicated to him the facts
respecting Belknap's guilt. The facts
contained in Gen. Hazen's letter were
published in the New York Tribune in
July, 1872. The Republican press dur
ing the campaign of 1872, and down to
the time OF the late explosion, when the
Secretary confessed his guilt, denounced
the Tribune article as a malicious SLAM
ler. The Secretary continued for more
than three years to disgrace his high
office by the sale of post-traderships,
and consequent robbery of the soldiers
on the frontier. During all this time
Garfield, by his silence, was the ally
and abettor of the Secretary.
The only apology attempted by the
henchmen OF Gen. Garfield is, that he
turned the matter over to the Chairman
of the Committee on Military Affairs.
If that be true, it is no excuse. The
chairman of the committee, it seems, for
some reason, neglected to investigate the
matter. Perhaps he was wanting in
honesty or ability, or was not acquainted
with Gen. Hazen, and gave no Credence
20 his statements. Gen. Garfield knew
the character of his old schoolmate, and
knew his integrity and honor were un-
questioned. Yet this mighty states
man-this leader of the House, whose
Atlas shoulders are the main propo this
nation, spent his time in endeavoring to
get appropriations for horses and landau
lets for the private use OF public func-
tionaries, and left the guilty Secretary to
90 on undisturbed until the committee
Of Democratic House, acting on the
same evidence, brought him to merited
punishment.
OF what account 10 his constituents
or the country is The pretended great
ability of General Garfield L he lacks
the moral courage Gnd honesty to ex-
pose such disgraceful villainy2 Had he
possessed but ordinary ability, accompa-
MED with common honesty, he would
have moved an investigation, based up
m the information he had received.
The country is familiar with this dis
graceful chapter in our history, which is
briefly set forth in the following extract
