Mr.. PETER, Popuf ~ Kansas.
wished to introduce a % resolu-
ton and to preface 1t a state
ment
Mr.. Harris. Democrat, OF Tennessee.
objected to the vicious practice Of maxi
ing arguments when measures were
presented.
MIR. PETER characterized this objec-
ton as cruel in view of the recent wide
latitude of financial discussion. The
title Of his resolution is ito provide for
q special election to take the sense Of
the people concerning several questions
as TO the financial policy Of the govern
| ment."
The resolution OF Mr.. Allen, Populist,
/ of Nebraska, was then taken up re-
/ curing the secretary of the treasury
| TO redeem government obligations in
silver as often as he Is convinced
that a systematic effort is being made
to deplete the gold reserve and force
an issue Of bonds. Mr.. Allen said he
had no hope of the resolution passing
but he wanted 10 call public attention
to the action OF the secretary OF the
treasury in ignoring the law which
gave him the option Of paying certain
obligations in silver and made 1t
| imperative that he should redeem at
least two forms Of currency In silver.
1t was a usurpation of authority. He
praised Mr.. Vest for refusing to follow
the presidents dictatorship Mr.. Allen
. sought 10 secure yea and nay vote
on his resolution, but after consldera-
BILE parliamentary sparrlng he failed
in this.
Mr.. German interposed with mo-
tion to take up a pending District of
Columbia bill He said 1t was perfectly
apparent that his discussion OF
financial resolutions was utterly fruit
less. Appropriation bills were waiting
and the days of congress We're flying
fast.
This brought Mr. Hill to his feet. He
suggested to Mr.. German that
there were measures quite as
important as appropriation bills,
and he considered several OF
these financial resolutions as among
these.
