Speaker Reed has also been much changed
in the past twenty years. A picture of the
big speaker. taken when he was 4 young
man just beginning to gataer up law busi-
ness and gain local Keputation as cam
paign orator up in Maine, shows slender,
gawky, odd genius sort of person, in
whom probably no prophet ever foretold
the naturalization Of power which the
whole country is now talking about. The
expression Of the face. has not so much
changed, but the man mas broadened and
grown stalwart mentally and physically TO
an almost Incredible extent. Probably the
speaker is now the largest man in congress.
He may not be quite as heavy as Barnes, Of
Georgia, the fat statesman, but he has en-
enormous body, long and wide, stalwart
legs, bull neck, hugo feet and large
head. He is a giant among the members
of the house, and ne never appears so ele-
phantine as when he stands at his desk,
his hands clasped on the expanse Of his
broad back, and manages the turbulent
