COMPLAINTS are frequent against
the Congressional Record that it
does not accurately represent the
course OF debate, that it does not
contain what the members said, and
that it contains things which they
did not say,-moreover, that the
practice of having printed in it
long extracts, and sometimes entire
articles from newspapers and maya.
zines. become an abuse. The prin-
cipal use of the Record is to give an
accurate report of what is done in
Congress-; what is said is just now
of comparatively little Importance.
If the speeches which are made in
the Houses are any worse than those
contained in the Record, they GER
tainly ought to be revised before
being given to the world. The
debates as they are printed are not
very imposing, and proper desire
not to appear too ridiculous IN the
eyes Of other nations seems to be 3
sufficient excuse for making some
changes from the words actually
uttered. This does not amount to
Justification, as Is charged by some,
because every copy Of the Record
contains q notice respecting the
privilege members have of revising
their remarks. 1t is rather incon-
venient to have speeches taken out Of
their place in the discussion and
strung along in the Record weeks
after the questions which called
them forth have been disposed Of;
but this is perhaps unavoidable. As
to the quotations from books, per-
iodicals, and private letters, they
are usually the most valuable and
interesting part Of the publications.

THE many political backsets have
affected Ben Buffers memory. Few
people realized Benjamin saved the
Union alone, but he is now certain
that be captured New Orleans. He
is angry with a speech made by
Mayor Mckinley, and said: HE
eulogized several West Point gem
erals, but forgot to mention any
volunteer generals. looked upon
that as an insult, and in what |
hope was proper language and dis
tinct utterances gave my views Of
its character. He forgot Garfield
and Logan and all the rest. He
didn't forget me because he looked
right at me when he was praising
the others. There was no reason
why be should praise me, because l
am not great general. To be
. great general one must have had
battles in which many men we're
killed. / hadn'tany such, although
the New England division under
my command saved Washington,
and captured Baltimore and New
Orleans without the aid of any of
the West Point generals"

WASHINGTON CRY, June 27.-Senator
Alien yesterday secured the passage OF the
bill granting 70 the Northern Pacific 4
Yakima Irrigation Company right-of-way
through the Yakima Indian reservation in
Washington. 1t was amended somewhat
by the committee, clause being inserted
the interior to fix the compensation to be
paid the Indians for the right-of-way and
for whatever property may be taken in the
construction OF the canal. Another amend
ment was made. correcting the description
Of the property sought to be entered, as it
was found that under the terms OF the bill
as originally drawn, the right-of-way WAS
not upon the Indian reservation at all.
