Hale's leanluti n for a special committee on
the mode of electing President and Vice Pres
ident and of counting and certifying to the
vote was disposed of by reference to commit
tee on elections.
A resolution of December 13. 1881. offered
by Davis, ol West Virginia, relating to pen
sion frauds, calling for statements of their na
ture and character, and what amount of ar
reats had been paid, number of cases addtd
to the pension roll under thq "arrears act, "
number of applications thereunder, estimated
annual expeuditure required, estimated total
cost of arrearage paid aud to bn paid, aud the
total rebate of pension roll after arrearage
had been determined, came up. Some dis
cussion ensued upon the tho amendment by
Edmunds, striking out the direction to tho
Secretary of the Interior to report his opin
ion upon such legislation as he thouu'ht ad
visable. Edmunds areucd that the President alone
was empowered to recommend legislation.
inn contended wnuo it was tie duty ot me
President to do this, there was no limitation
ou the power of Congress to get opinion from
others.
Davis of West Virginia, in course of debate,
said the secretary had estimated that J10O,
000,000 would be required for this year to
pay the pension roll, aud this estimate he
learned had been increased by the commis
sioner to $120,000,000. Nobody knew where
the increase would stop, aud next year, for
aught we know, it would reach $150,000,000.
Hu (Davis) had stated last year the arrears of
the Pension bill would cost the government a
sum greater than the national debt, and the
statement was laughed at. Pnseot indica
tions seemed to fully justify the statement lie
then made.
Logan said that the statements were based
on accurate information and should not be
allowed to go to the country uncontradicted.
Tho assertion that pension arrearages would
eost more than the national debt was cer.
taudy not based on any rebate. The infer
ence from what had been stated would bo
that our pension roll would continue to cost
$100,000,000 per year right aleng, with a
probable increase. The report of the commis
sioner showed that with the certain force at
his command the arrears of pensions coula be
paid in two years, and after these were paid
the roll would be reduced to $40,000,000 or
not over $50,000,000. The Senator from
M est irginia could not help knowing this,
