Congress that party had ridden in
power in the House fetlock deep in
human blood. Under that power it
had murdered more men for at
tempting to vote the republican
ticket than had fallen in defence of
the nag at Gettysburg. Beautiful
party to talk about civil service re-
form. There was not a spot upon
the eScutcheOn of the country that
had not been placed there by demo-
cratic fingers. There was not a
hole in the cOuntry's flag that they
had not shot there. There point
ing to the side of the chamber) is a
map of the country. III asked that
any man should put a pencil upon
the state where political riot went
unclaimed, where political outrage
and wrong went unrebuked and UNI
punished, there was nOG a
man who would have the
brazen effrontery TO put his
pencil within the boundaries of a
clear, clean republican state. (Ap-
plause) He (Bayne) said he had
endeavored to show, yesterday. that
the removals made by the Presi-
dent were against the Constitution
and laws Of the country. He (Bayne)
had to draw a line of demarcation
between the late President and the
President. That line of demarca-
ton was distinctly drawn by Gen.
Garfield. who proposed to represent
the wishes OF the people, and his
action IN Office, and his action every
where, has been in response to the
public sentiment. While President
Arthur, instead Of responding to
the demands Of the people, re-
spOnded to the demands of q minor
ity faction Of the republican party.
Collector after collector had been re-
moved by him; almost every one of
those removals had been against the
earnest protest Of the people of
those collective districts. That was
the difference between the two men.
One (GarfeldD believing it to be his
high duty to represent public senti-
ment, the other ARTHUR believing
it to be his duty 10 represent the
will Of faction. The issue ought
to be presented to the people.
Holman, of Illinois, raised 8
point of order against the
appropriations in the bill to
carry out the provisions of the anti
pClygamy act. OYerTuled. The
clause appropriating $4,000 for the
salaries of the Utah commission
was struck from the bill.
Converse, Of Ohio, moved to strike
out the proviso combining the duties
and investigations of the board Of
health to the diseases cholera and
yellow fever.
Pending discussion the committee
rose.
Deuster, of Wisconsin, introduced
a bill to regulate the carriage Of pas
sengerS by sea. Referred. It is
drawn in accordance with the sug-
gestions made by the President in
qis recent message announcing his
veto Of the bill of the same title
presented to the House OF Saturday
last.
Kasson, of Iowa, introduced a bill
to repeal certain additional duties
on sugar. Referred.
Cox, of New York, offered the
following resolution: The President
of the United States, if not in
compatible with public service, will
communicate to this House any
information in the possession Of the
department of state in reference to
any change or modification of the
stipulatiOns which the French
Cable Company made with orr
government at the time February
9, 'S0) when said company was per-
mitted to land its cable upon our
shores, to the effect that it would
never consolidate with any other
company, or raise. the rates; and
further report the nature of such
modification, if any, with a view to
Congressional action to prevent q
consolidation of rates. Referred.
The House then took a recess.
