sions, Bounty and Back Pay It seems that when Tho
Mexican Pension bill was under consja.ra
ton by the House last July, Mr.. Taylor q,
Ohio, obtained leave 10 print some remarks a.,
The Congressional record. BY some uneowarI ciro
stance the speech did not appear in The Record unn
sometime after the adjournment OF Congress As puh
shcd it contained several reflections upon the condue,
Of General Warner and his committee. Tne.o
criticisms taken to heart by Chair
man Warner and his colleagues that they concluded
that not only had their dignity been insued IN,
the dignity OF the House well and therefore, accord
ing TO Mr. Warmers statement TODAY, they had nstrucoa
him to bring resolution that Mr. Taylor had guilty
Of violation Of the privileges OF the House. and that hi,
arragnment of the Committee should not be roganedas
Il legitimate part OF the proceedings OF the House."

COMPARISON or WAR RECORDS.
Toward the close of the proceedings some personal
observations were madcb Warner on the military record
of Mr. Taylor who he asserted enlisted az late period
~ the war; regiment which aid not leave the state OF
Ohio Mr. Taylor retortol that he had heard something
about Mr. Warmers military record; Tor example, tuab
his physical disability arises from wound received IN
the back This assertion very peremptOry ana EN-
phatcally denied.
PASSED BY PARTY VOTE.
An effort to refer the resolution to the Committee on
Rules in order TO ascertain whether Mr. Taylors remarks
had violated any rule of privilege Of the House was de-
cated by party vote and then on party division tho
resolution was adopted. l6i to 90.
OF course this result does not change Mr..
Taylor's opinion OF Mr. Warner and his
committee and it pretty hard TO see how II vindicates
the honor and dignity of the committee or House Inc
whole proceeding arcical except IN one respect-it
clearly showed that the practice Of allowing Reprsots
tiyes to publish In The Congressional Ree0rd speeches
that are never delivered IN the House IL nuisance t'V
ought TO be abatcd that way only the House hopo
TO Nndicate its dignity.
