Reeds alleged tyranny in his rulings
The foreshadowing of some dozen to
twenty contests for seats aud the show
ing up of the unlawful and disreputable
methods by which the occupants OF
those seats had procured their title there
to, wesc premonitory warnings to the
leaders that something must be done 70
battle the majority and prevent any pro-
ceedings for the proper settlement of
those contests, and for the adoption OF
rules for the limitation of tilibustering
and the protracted obstruction of the
business of the house. MIR. Mills. Of
Texas, the acknowledged leader Of the
democratic side of the house, took early
occasion to instruct his colleagues and
to inform the public just what the mi
nority proposed to do in the premises.
In published newspaper interview Mr..
Mills laid out the democratic programme
as shown by the following extract,
which has been reproduced by The Mil
YANKEE Sentinel:
I'VE do not propose that the repubi-
can majority shall pass single measure
without our consent. For instance, ynu
may depend upon it that the rules of
the house will not be changed in any
essential feature by the republican ma
jority. We will not permit them 10 be
changed. as it is desired by Mr.. Reed,
in any particular feature. Nor will we
permit any of the proposed legislation
looking to control by congress of the
election, for we see plainly what the
purpose of that is. The same may be
said of the contested seat eases that will
come up before congress We do not
propose to let the republican majority
be further increased ad libtum by
throwing out democratic members. as
seems to be the purpose. In other
words, we propose to exercise the con-
troll of the house just as much as though
we were still in the majority. because
we know our minority is strong enough
to make us virtually the rulers. "
The presumptive and dictatorial spirit
exhibited in this pronunciamento is adj
mirable. 1t reminds one of the notable
threat of Congressman Blackburn. Of
Kentucky, who some years ago, when
the democrats had gained the temporary
ascendency in both branches of con
gress. gave the republicans notice that
the democrats were goirg TO "wipe out
your war legislation, meaning prime
pally the constitutional amendments
The supercilousness of the threats in
both specimens is conspicuous, but both
these statemen undertook greater
piece of work than they could consum-
mate, hence their bitter disappointment.
