TAMPERING WITH THE RECORD OF CON-
GRESS

The people are taxed for the publication
of the debates of Congress. A corps OF
expert stenographers is maintained in the
Senate and in the House to report the pro
| ceedings exactly as they occur. But the
| speeches are constantly and often fraudu-
lently changed, by a system of so-called
revision. The debates are not truly report
ed the remarks of Congressman are fire.
quently prevented in that process of revis-
| ion.
Secor Robson assaulted his own side
more bitterly than he assaulted the demo
Gratis in closing the discussion on his pro
ject for enlarging the committees. But
after this burst of resentment he was care
full to withhold his remarks for revision. "
In plain English, he was afraid to allow
his speech to appear in the Record as it
was spoken in the House.
This trick is in keeping with another
which Secor Robson and the Speaker
played upon the House. On the PROPOSE
ton to add members to fourteen commit
tees, the report of the Rules Committee as
the House, was:
The cmmittee recommend the amendment of
Rule A. so as to read as follows, namely" &C.
OF course the whole of Rule X was thus
opened to amendment; but when Mr..
Springer sought to improve the opportunl-
ty, he was met in this way:
1.-THE Speaker-The Chair suggests that it would
be far TO state the report from the Committee on
graphs of Rule y. The report is not printed accu-
rately in the Record
MIR Springer-It is printed accurately in the
Record this morning
THE Speaker-It is moi printed accurately in the
Record this morning.
Subsequently Mr.. Springer-said:
1.-THE objection that is raised by the gentleman
from Kentucky is remedied by the amendment in
teItsaed in the clause Of the committees report,
Gter u acas read 10 the Horse, namely, certain par
agraphs of Rule X
mr.. Thompson-Do understand the gentleman
to say there interlineaton in that reportg'7
"Mr. Springer-I do state there an interlnea-
ton of the words certain paragraphs Of, after the
report was read to the House, to make the report
apply to-those committees only
Upon examination it was found that
these words, which changed the whole
spirit of the proposition, had been inter-
lined in a different handwriting from that
of the body of the report; and the change
had been effected after the report was pre-
scented to the House. The author of the
fraud stands self-revealed. He deserved
expulsion on the spot. And the Speaker
could not have been ignorant of this Grim
inal work, which he sought to impose on
the House by denying the fidelity of the
report in the Record
But the most astonishing fact in connec
ton with the Infamous proceedings is that |
Mr.. Randall and MIR. Blackburn remained /
silent, and thus passively consented to this
ylaring imposture,-N 7. San

chicago Grain Gambling

Five thousand bushels of oats on
Wednesday in the Chicago market set
tied up two hundred thousand bushels,
30 the report to the New York papers
say. That means that pack of grain
gamblers got commissions on the sale of
one hundred and ninety five thousand
bushels that were not delivered, and
worse than that, were lot in the mar
ket to deliver. Another way of looking
at it is, that the marginal profits on the
sale of i've thousand bushels had to
pay the margins on the other one hun
dred and ninety. five thousand bushels.
1t would not do that and of course, some
body had to lose. Suppose there we're
five hundred grain gamblers, each OF
them would have to sell those 5000
bushels of oats over forty times to
reach the 100000 that was settled up
am yngst the gamblers. The same re-
port from Chicago disclOses the fact
that the admission fee to this grain
gambling fraternity is $500. Do our
people who are fighting the wolf from
the door and paying high prices for the
neCessaries of life see the cause of 1t ?
Much of the grain that is to be made
into the -four that we will use in Janu-
ary has already been gobbled up by
these grain ghouls. 1t is time these
grain gamblers were taken in hand by
an indignant and outraged people, and
we are very much mistaken in the signs
of the times if they will not be brought
up on the short turn. All that is re-
quired is for the people to see the enor-
nifty Of their crimes, and when once
seen they will move boldly upon the
enemy. 1t will be one of the objects of
the REPUBLICAN in the interests of the
people to expose these gamblers, COM
pared to whom "Pete" Blake's sweat
cloth arrangement Is virtue.

THERE WERE A large number OF Re-
publicans who wanted to vote at the
late state election but could not because
they we're not assessed. There Is no
excuse now for not getting assessed, If
they will only take the trouble to call
upon the assessors. Francis d. Talley,
assessor for the Northern district can
be found every evening except Thurs
day, at his residence, No. 1893 Walnut

Mr.. Lannan, assessor for the Southern

business, 1908 West Frort street,at any

than to wait until freehold vouchers
