Remarks of Congressman Reed.
HUMOROUS REVIEW OF TIE FAILURE OF THE
DEMOCRATIC HOUSE.
| suppose that the whole House recognizes
the actual situation. The summer is passed.
the harvest is about ended, and whether any
body is saved or not cannot t,e determined hy
discussions here or prophetic uttcrancc>.
We have been in session about eight months.
Every gentleman connected with the measures
that have been spoken of this morning has. of
course, done his whole duty has been instant
in season and out of season, but the result has
been that we have failed OF accomplishment to
any very great extent. and if we should stay
here any longer it seems to me that we Should
probably have about the same result with more
expenditure of time.
! simply want to cal the House to witness
that the majority have met with no factiou> OPP
position, no waste Of time, no spinnin" out of
debates, no hamperng. They have had lhe
rifles changed to suit themselves. they have had
most abundant opportunity for the transaction
of business. My friend and chairman of the
Committee on APPROXIMATIONS (Mr RandaD
that he might have set us an eNanplc Of speedy
action up on the appropriation bills that We're
left to him. (Laughter.) The other committee
on appropriations have had ample time and OPP
porttnity to consider their business with full
ness and amplitude of detail | want simply
to point out the charming Arcadian simplicity
of the situation which the gentlemen on the
other side have had to deal with this session Il
perfectly uninterrupted flow, perfect opportlln-

they deemed consistent with the honor. the
dignity, the glory of the country; and il j. to
the credit Of the gentlemen who have spoken
this morning. that after all the democratic
party have achieved this season. they still find
other fields Of achievement open and possible
for them.
1t shows that there are men in the democrat
ir party who are in advance of the great mass
of reform gentlemen who intend to make
this country blossom like the rose, but who DO
not seem thus far to have absolutely succeeded.
Laughter.)
1t docs seem to me about time we should
make some attempt toward tindin" the end Of
this session. 1t would seem that the country,
at least, if one can judge by the expression of
public opinion, is satisfied we have had full trial
of our opportunities and capabilities. If these
measures which are spoken of have not been
brought up, who is to be blamed: After eight
months of this session Of Congress- has passed,
can we do ANYTHING better than make an at
IL
OF Congress. if it should find that the public
business requires a modification OF the rcSoIll-
tons. will make such modification. and then the
resolution Will come back to us to be consider
ed in the light of all circumstances Of the case.
