Messra. Gibson and Randall.

In the House of Representatives yester-
day. when the proposed new rule, were
under discussion, Mr.. Gibson, OF West Vir-
ginia, said that under the present rules
nine tenths of the constituency OF
the country were practically difsran-
chised in the House, while two or
three men set themselves up, or were set
up as the only men who could be trusted,
on account of their capacity or their honesty.
He favored O distribution of the appropria-
ton bills Mr.. Gibson said that he remem-
bered that the gentleman from Pennsyl-
vauia came in on the last day of the last
session of Congress, and pressed through
the House, under threat that not to do 80
would cause an extra session, an appropria
ton bill which contained on appropriation
for public building 10 Pennsylvania or In
diana.
Mr.. Randall said that the gentleman's
memory was defective. He had resisted
every addition to the appropriation for pub
lie buildings on that sundry civil BILL and
his vote in committee had been consistent
with his public acts. AS well as he re-
rendered, there was no appropriation in
that bill for public building in Pennsyl-
vania.
Mr.. Gibson contended that the appropr.
alton committees had no business to hold
back the appropriation bills and to
st1e the voice of members of the
House. Why was it that the gentleman
from Pennsylvania and the gentle.
man from Indiana were the only men
who could be trusted with the appropriation
blls2 Did their record show that they were
more patriotic than the other members of
the House? When these immense land
grants were given to railroads, when thiev.
ing appropriations were made, where was
this great committee to protect the interests
of the country?
Mr.. Randall.-"I never voted dollar nor
an acre of land for any railroad"
Mr.. Gbson.-"I did not ask how the gen.
tleman voted. 1t is we'll known that while
he has had charge of these matters he has
controlled legislation"
Mr.. Randall.--"Not in the least. But
am glad to say that the democrats voted al
most unanimously as did"
Mr. Gibson.-"1t is not question of
how the gentleman voted or how he did
not"
Mr.. Randall.-"I thought it was"
Mr.. Gibson.-"It is because the gentle
man thrusts himself In here and makes him
self personal feature in the discussion that
he is discussed. Laughter We want to
amend the rules for the public good, not
to help or hurt the gentleman from Penn.
sylvania."
Mr.. Randall thought that in view of the
remarks of the gentleman from West Vir.
giuia as to land grants and subsidy it was
proner for him to say that since the House
has been under democratic control there
bad not been an acre of land or dollar of
subsidy appropriated. As to his thrusting
himself forward here, every member ought
to know that he had done just the reverse.
He did not deal in personalities in the
House, apd if anybody wanted to deal with
him personally he ought not to do it here.

THREATENED WITH IMPRIsoNMENT.-D.
B. Tenant & Co., of Petersburg, owed the
State of Virginia $3.50 for taxes for the year
1888, for which they rendered payment in
coupons that were refused. The Treasurer
of Petersburg being about to levy on their
property, they applied to Judge Bond, who
granted an injunction restraining the Treas
urer from disturbing them and forbidding
him and all others to return their property
as delinquent. He also decreed that the
tender paid the tax. The Treasurer of Pc
tersburg made return to the Auditor that
coupons had been rendered for the tax on
their property, and that the case was in the
United States Court. The Auditor made
out list of delinquent property in Peters
burg, In which Tenant & Co.'s property
was included, and sent it to the treasurer of
that city, with instructions to sell it for de-
linquent taxes. Mr.. Royal and Messrs.
Sands & Bryan, representing Tenant & Co.,
yesterday brought these facts to the atten
ton of Judge Bond, who made an order that
Auditor Marye should show cause on the
Goth day of January before him why he shall
not be committed to Jail for contempt of
court At the same time he made an order,
on the petition of John E. Hamilton, late
treasurer of Augusta county, that Auditor
Marye and Treasurer Barksdale shall show
cause on the same day why mandamus
should not issue commanding them to re.
ceive coupons from Hamilton In payment OF
what he owes the State on account of taxes
collected in money by him.-Richnlond State
Of yesterday.
