Mr.. Mason of Iowa, argued on the repub-
lican side of the question. declaring that if
dilatory motions could not be cut off the mi
nority could prohibit the majority from pass
ing an appropriation bill, or disposing of any
question at the within of little over one fifth
of the whole number.
Mr.. Kenna asked Mr.. Kasson whether the
minority had ever been refused the right to
make such motions as the minority had made
in the present case.
Mr.. Kasson replied that dilatory motions
had not hitherto been made in election cases.
In that case the House sat judicially, no,
legislatively.
Mr.. Robinson of New York, suggested
that the simple remedy was by a motion on
Monday to suspend the rules.
Mr.. Kasson said he could not admit the
bona fideness of that suggestion coming
from a man who refused to vote so as to de-
prive the House even of majority vote. In
conclusion he stated that this obstruction be-
came revolution not legislation.
Mr.. Carlisle Of Kentucky, on the side of
the minority. said the House had established
rules and was bound by them in all its pro-
ceedings. If the House could disregard
them for one purpose, il could disregard
them for other purposes.
The debate was continued by Mr.. Carlisle
and Mr.. Blackburn on the democratic side
and Mr.. Haskell and Mr.. Robeson for the re.
publicans. Mr.. Cox followed on the demo-
cratic side, and at the close of his speech
the Speaker stated that the two hours oriei.
nally contemplated as a limit of discussion
had been extended to three hours and he
thought it about time to have the discussion
