to destroy the very foundations of our
Government by a subversion of this
country which is. based upon the con-
sent of the governed.

Caffery then began a speech in op-
position to annexation. He entered upon
a constitutional argument against an
nexation, during which he was fire.
quently interrupted to answer ques-
tions.
In response to am inquiry by Faulk-
ner, Caffery said that he had never
known any nation to acquire foreign
territory by a purely legislative act.
Stewart instanced the fact that Great
Britain has acquired parts of India by
Acts of Parliament.
But the English Parliament is om-
nipotent," suggested Spooner of Wis
consin. Does the Senator from Ne
vada claim that Congress is omnipo-
tent?'
Yes, it is" replied Stewart, within
the limits of the Constitution
In response to an inquiry by Mallory
of Florida, Stewart maintained that
the Supreme Court had held repeatedly
that it would not inquire into the ac-
QUESTION of territory. When the po-
Etical power of the Government had
taken action, the transaction was
closed

Allison called up the conference re-
port on the Indian appropriation bill,
and asked that it be agreed to.
| Jones of Arkansas expressed the
hope that the report might be re-
| jected, because of the provision which
allowed Indians to lease mineral lands
on their reservations.
The report was rejected, the special
grounds of objection being that stated
by Jones and one stated by Pettigrew,
who insisted that the Senate confer
rees should insist upon the free homes
