jones, who had contested mann's election was paid the full freight, $2,500. but in menard's case the committee on accounts proposed now, to be fair, the chairman of this three-person panel and it was a rather backwards panel had decided he could get some attention and save the house a little bit of cash and he also recommended that caleb hunt only be paid $1,500 in this case. but dawes objected to this because he smelled that there was more than just pecuniary motivation at work for the reduction and the reaction to him in the chamber was telling. i appeal to the house that they will be not carried away by their prejudices against color and race, dawes said. i appeal to them, not to treat him by one rule and the white man by another. i ask the gentleman who passed the constitutional amendment to see that this is not done. mr. speaker, it is unconstitutional to treat him differently. and the congressional globe, which often has wonderful little asides in it from this time period, reported that it was laughter that greeted each refrain of this staccato appeal t
