Was the embodiment of an idea antagonistic to American institutions. Tne fact that he had re- ‘turned the Lasker resolutions might stand to the prejudice of the German people, but the resolution of the Mberal union contradicted that assump- tion. “ From the cis. AUantle standpoint death broke down all political feeling, and tn the presence of the open grave “the | universal rotherhood of man was the inspiration of the hour. ‘The same was true of the Germans as a peo- ple, and if they were misrepresented by a mnan in & powerful place they had no other method of setting: themselves right betore the world than by the reso- luUong of the liberal union. In presenting this reso- luUion in his official place, asa member of Uyls body, asa native of Germany and an adopted clilzen of the United States, he destred to express his earnest, conviction that He action of the liberal union was the true index of the feeling of united Germany, and that the action of Prince Bismarck wonld not rise above the dignity of a matter of personal vexa- Uon, in no way affecting the kindly relations now existing between the two nations. It might be premature now to criticise the action of Prince Bl mnarck, but when oflcku information thereof was in possession of the House he would endeavor to show that the Lasker resolutions were entirely kind and proper. MR. GUENTHER (WIS) DENIED that the people of Germany were hostile to this country or its institutions, or that the letter of Prince Bismarck returning the Lasker resolutions reflected the sentiment of that people. ‘They did NOU approve of his discourtesy; neither did they in dorse his autocratic action in’ prokibiting the tm- portation of American products, ‘MR.
