Excerpt from Remarks of C. P. Huntington: Before the Committee on the Judiciary, U. S. Senate, Saturday, November 17, 1877 Mr. Huntington. - Mr. Chairman, I do not propose to say anything about the legal aspect of the case, but to try to show you that it is for the interest of the Government and our own interest, that we come to an amricable settlement of these matters, and much that I have to say relates to the great cost of the road when it was built, and as it was built, and showing what assets we have, and our ability to do what we propose. My associates and myself have been in business a great many years; I have, for almost forty-three years been in business for myself, and never had any paper go to protest in all that time. I had some out in 1837, and in all the great panics since. And I do not want to have anything go to protest connected with the Central Pacific Railroad, though it is not a personal matter of mine. While these learned gentlemen have been discussing the power of Congress, under the Constitution, to change and alter these Pacific Railroad contracts, it has seemed to me the real question before us is not so much a legal as a business one. Whether these legal gentlemen are able to convince you that Congress has no authority over the subject, or not, I think I can make it clear to you, that, as a business transaction, Congress cannot afford to take advantage of its own constructions of the statutes, because it would not be for its interest, nor for its credit, to do that which would be condemned among honorable men. Laying one side of the legal bearings of the matter, let me try and present it from the business standpoint.
