votes. one of these being the speaker
of the house. The small vote had a lot

than 200 woes cast OH both sides. Cock
ran had large audience, the galleries
being packed.

ran characterized the presidents in

mockery and n play on words" and
said that this was known by the man

executive department is usurping DOW
ers belonging to congress. and the pen
sion order was only an aggravated
instance thereof.
