It was not one of the regular expenditures of the Government. Again. relief of destitute American citizens In Mexico. $40.152.47. Does the Senator from Utah begrudge that expenditure? Does he remember how earnestly and eloquently he appealed for something to be done for the relief of citizens of Utah who had cast their fortunes in the Republic of Mexico? Thatis an unusual and extraordinary exPenditure. Transporting and caring .for Mexican interned soldiers and refugees. $670.000. I do not think there was a vote in the Senate against it. It was a necessity growing out of the extraordinary situation. and it was not a regular ordinary appropriation of the Government.
