He made a vigorous attack on Tammany,
charging it with levying taxes on the
vices and Tnisfortunes of the city.
Boutelle, OF Maine, after glowing
tribute to New England, made sarcastic
illusions to DR.. Everett, OF Massa-
chusetts, and was about to read from a
letter written to James Russell Lowell i,
which he said described the dough face
of 1861, and this was a photograph OF
the dough-face of 1888.
Springer, of Illinois, took exception to
applying the epithet 'sdough face" to a
member OF the house.
cit is an epithet,'' said Boutelle fierce
~, (which can be applied with equal
force as well to the gentleman from ILL.,
nols as TO the gentleman from Malne.'
Springer grew white, and striding
hercely toward BouIelle retorted:
81 want you to know, sir, that you
cannot apply such epithet to me-
After some further exchange, Bou-
telle still protesting he expression was
telle said: every Democratic speech
demonstrated this to be blow at the
fundamental principles underlying the
government. / thought the new genera
ton would join hands with US in building
up common country. For ten days the
sheeIed ghosts of the confederacy have
fitted about these halls and gibbered of

dent of the United States had
been accused of undue sympathy
with your struggle to capsize the gov

a Union soldier sits about the cabinet
table. Repu blican applause. Boutelle
then went on 10 take up the records OF
the Democratic Senate committees, be-
ginning with the president pro tenn,
Harris, showing that almost without ex
ception they served in the Confederate
army. He reviewed the committees in
the House from the speaker down to the
Committee on Pensions, showing how
they were dominated by ex-Confederates.
"Wilson,'' he said, rejected Springer,
from the loyal states, as chairman of the
Ways and Means; and Holman was de-
posed by the triumphant Democracy
with a Confederate. | declare, here,
now. on my own responsibility as a
representative, that no more mlschievous
doctrine, no more deadly blow at our
institutions, at the essence of our nation
atty, of our country, can be dealt than
by the denial of the right OF this imperial
government to cross the borders of a
sovereign state.' Republican applause.]
If such doctrines are to prevail, then
the cause for which | and 2,0c0, 900 of my
northern countrymen fought when rebel
lion was put down, was not victorlous.''
[Renewed applause
Marshall, of Virginia, secured five min
utes in which TO reply to the fiery utter
ances of Boutelle. He appealed to the
ing the south that it engaged in unholy
rebellion.
Stallings, of New York, followed in adj
yocacy CT the bill.
Payne, (Republican) of New York, OPP
posed the bill. He detailed at great length
the 'theft' of the senate of New York by
the Democrats in 1890. and the part taken
by Judge j. III. Maynard, who was nom1-
mated for supreme judge by the New York
Democrats last Friday. 'sWhy do you
demand honest elections" he asked, adj
dressing the Democratic side, ''when you
nominate for the highest judicial position
in the Empire state, criminal?''
Fitch, of New York, chairman of the
committee which reported the bill, closed
the debate for the Democrats. He scored
John L. Davenport without restraint, and
traced the attempt of the Repu blicans at
Albany and Westinghouse legislate New
York into a Republican city, hut the re-
suit of this attempt and the performances
of Davenport had only been to drive the
Repu blicans entirely from control in New
York city. He defended New York
against the assaults made upon her gov
eminent, and in conclusion he denied
that there was any question of states or
Interpretation of constitution involved in
this. To redeem the pledges made by the
Chicago platform, in the light of expert
ence with these laws, and in the name of
the city OF New York, he demanded the
passage of the pending bill. [Applause.]
Tucker rose at the close of Fitch
speech TO ask leave to print some remarks
John Randolph Tucker, from Boutells.
Then, at 4:40, the House adjourned.
