Congress and the Money Question

The important fact is that the pres-
ent congress, like many of it's recent
predecessors, is incapable of meeting
the situation. So far as it has had any
influence at all it has been hindrance
rather than help. The men who con-
troll it have persisted in giving more
weight to their own fancies and preju-
dices than to the public welfare. No
appeal that has been made to their
patriotism has moved them. They
favor or oppose given piece of legisla-
ton not on it's merits, but because of
its supposed influence on certain

Lincoln and Stanton were preparing to

port somewhat preparing the people for
that event, when the Federals, in the

which changed the programme.
Major Stiles said the musketry fire was
so severe at Cold Harbor that one OF the
Howitzers' guns had three wheels OF one
of the pieces literally cut down by mus
