RAnr...rta..-- U,. ..s A.. Iaod.n - a. !.
pVave pe Watson' 'no ioauor VI sne
.eopies party, arose TO question OF prlvi-
lege ana denounced tho correspondent OF
the Atlanta Opsstif,uioa for accusing him Of
fmproper motives in votino with the Repub.
hcans in the recent Craig Stewart election
contest. Mr.. Watson caused to be read from
sno Cierks oesk dlspatcn 10 the Constuu
.'oa' from It's washington correspohaeht'Who
- tne SPEAKERS clerk, wherein II was sSaeed
snaS mr. watson had voted IN 1avor OF sne
republican oontestee because no expected
l,hanciai ald from ene party IN MS he4t race

trus'' rs tne numoiest MEMBER OF tnls
Honse, put n any member OF 1t charges me,
either directly or indirectly in the cowardly
langua . of insinuation, with having acted
corruptly as a sworn Juror in passing upon
answer as plainly, as sternly. and rs prompt
ly delivered, as honesty and courage re-
quire it to be made. If one Of these reading
clerks, Mr. Speaker were. through the pub
per OF this House, it would startle every
MEMBER or this House who kneW OF thas
charge, but when the clerk OF the Speaker OF
M6om Ss to Se the
icai opponent OF the gentleman to whom ne
Is CLERK, then 1t certainly becomes still more
elgmincant, and the Justification OF the reply
Is stlll more complete.
Flattesf Kind of Contradiction.

knows it. and his clerk ought to hs We known
1t, and every member of this House knows
IT, iAppla1se.1 Every Republican in his
seat, saving two voted to retain the Repub-
lican in his seat; and the two Republicans
who voted against their party associates
were met and overmatched-met by three
Democrats outside of the despised lepers,
who are known as third party men,"
tLaughter.1
"rhere were three Republicans who voted
against Mr.. Stewart interrupted Mr.
Haughen,
"Then it is a set-of, and the three Repub-
licans did what they thought was only their
duty as sworn Jurors; and the three Demo
Gratis who voted were men whose loyalty to
the party cannot be questioned. Mr.. Cock
ran, of New York, Is one OF the chiefs of
National Democracy. (Laughter.1 He is
supposed by any test to come up to all the
requirements of loyalty and honesty. The
others were Mr.. Babbitt, of Wisconsin, and
oi M Ha,l, OF Mlnnesota. Ihese three i1yal
party. whvP Because. upon the testimony
and upon the law; it was question on which
sooo lawyers couio honestiy aiher.
Patience at an Utter End.
"Ever since have been here this clerk
of the Speaker has thought It his duty to
deride me, ridicule me, and misrepresent
me. In the article which have sent to the
Sneakers desk the climax is reached; the
time when silence was prudent and good

With these personal remarks of Ar. Wat.
