3 and the Committee on the Territories; and the first public word he said was in a contested elec- tion case. The first sentence he ever spoke on this floor was eminently characteristic of the man. He said: Mr. Speaker, it seems to me that this discussion ought io be confined to the questions that are made in this record. The re- marks made by the gentleman from Iowa have not been based to any extent upon the record that was before this committee and is now before this House. I can not understa...nd what the platform which the gentleman read has to do with the question that this House has to decide. That remark was tj'pical of the processes of Mr. Ster- ling's mind. He could not understand why anyone should ever seek to becloud a question or sidestep a dutJ^ When he had studied a question and had made up his mind what ought to be done, there was for him only one thing to do, and that was to go where his judgment and conscience led, and go by the shortest possible route. He was a man of strong friendships, but he never let a personal friendsliip interfere with his judgment in the discharge of his duty or with the process by wliich he made up liis mind that one side of a question was right and the other side was wrong.
