Dear Sir:—I have read your letter in defense of Mr. Blaine in the Sunday Tritune and also the editorial of the 7ridune thereon, in which you say: “Senator Edmunds was understood to have a Dlock of Burlington and Missouri securities,” | aud “Senator Edmunds atquired thelr interests in the Burlington and Missouri road when they were | in the Senate. They both supported the Dill to restore the land grant to thelr road.” ‘These statements taken in connection with the Test of your letter evidently mean that at the Ume of the legislation referred to I was in some | way interested in that road, or its securities, and the editorial in the Tribune states expressly a3 being your statement, that thing. Both yourself and the Tribune are totally mistaken. Ihave hunted up what I suppose to be the joint resolu- tion to which your refer, being Senate joint resolu- tion No. 29, 380 session Forty-first’ Congress, sien ite? recollection whatever on reste ot ean IT make a single remark on the subj&t of the House amendment, which remark Icommend toyourcarefulconsideration.
