He knew, from experionee, how difficult it was for a «ingle representative on a committee to protect the mterests of the winority and he believed that the design in making up this Committee, with only one Denocrat upon it, Wid that, when a Senator offers a resolution for an inquiry to be made in some particular case, he thereby implies Liat no other case should be fuvestigatod. Mr. HOWE (Rep, Wis)—I wish, once for all, to commit myself to my fricnd from Delaware (Bayard) and his friends in this Chatuber, by saymg that, as often #8 he or avy other member of this body will propose any investigation as to individuals or ofticials; or, if that i3 asking them to assume a disagreeable respousibility, then, whenever any one will point out any field, will desiznate any branch of the public service, any matter or thing which he desireg to have investigated, T will go with him te the very verge, and vote for the most radical, sweeping, bw searching investigation which he knows how to contrive. Mr, BAYARD (Den., Del) raid he wonld accept the Senator's pledge, and wonld offer, as a substitute for the pending resolation, Senator Trumball's proposition.

The Senator from Del. aware (Bayard) Koew him (Conkling) woll enough to know that hie was 1u earnest in bis desire to discover and pimish frands, Mr. BAYARD said that he was stilt under the imptes gion that there was some juconsistency between the position of Me.
