To our party belongs the mission of extending to its utmost limits the power of the people at the ballotbox. and so far as the people of the Twelfth district of Indiana could speak. they have declared their wish. their will. their command that Captain White shall be their Representative throughout all the sessions of the Fiftieth Congress. [Renewed applause.] Against this command of the people. against this decision. solemnly recorded at the ballotbox. we have a number of circumstances advanced by the Committee on Elections which it is asserted form in law a reason why the decision of the people should be reversed. I for my part accept the statementwhich has been made by the gentleman from Illinois . I believe that either Captain White was naturalized in Indiana or lie has committed perjury. I believe that be is a duly qualified member of this House of Representatives. or else his place is at the bar of a criminal court to answer an indictment for crime. Holding that view.
