ANCIENT METHODS OF PARliA-
MENTARV LAW


Elk Speaker Reed has gone to Europe to
study Parliamentary law. This seems
strange since we have been taught here
tefore that II big, burly, brutal and
coarse Tom Reed knew anything it was
Parliamentary law.
He was recommended for the speaker
ship because he was an adept at Parlia-
mentary law, consisting of fair and
impartial rulings, which would put the
McKi iley bill, the Force bill,
and the Pension bill through
Congress whether the members
we're In favor Of them or not. The
majority Of members were not in favor
Of either bill. But by the exercise Of his
vast Parliamentary knowledge, Speaker
Reed put them all through the House
and even forced two Of them through the
Senate.
The members Of his own party were
not in favor Of the bills. Members who
were not elected we're counted in to
make the passage Of the bills secure.
Speaker Reeds storehouse OF FarlIamen-
tary knowledge never failed. II there was
no rule for the particular trick that Mr..
Reed regarded as necessary for the ex
istence Of the Republican party he made
new rule to suit the case.
What could be simpler or more effect
i've than Mr.. Reeds plen2 II there were
not a sufficient number of votes, he
turned out few opponents and put in
men pledged to vote right; If there was
no rule, he made one to suit. III man
needs any more Parliamentary knowledge
than that 1t Is difficult TO understand
what II is or how he could apply it,
Il is true there are musty records in
Venice concerning the application Of the
laws of the Council OF Ten which might
be Of service to this modern student of
fairness; there are archives Of the mild
and salubrious Draconian rules rotting
Ia Athens which might be busted and ap.
piled to extend and conserve Reeds Re-
pnblicanism; there are stories OF
the pleasant and agreeable ways OF
the Duke Of Alva at Bruges
OF Lord Jeifrey's drastic decisions in
London, and o. Nero's ''buslness
methods Of persuading the Christians to
worship Bacchus and Venus stored away
In Rome, all of which doubtless contain In
valuable suggestions to Mr. Reeds fertile
mind Of just, equitable, pleasant and for.
chile expedlents for facilitating the
business Of The people in Congress
Hence after the first bloom Of fresh
astonishment wears away from the state
ment it does not seem at all strange that
Speaker Reed should 60 to Europe 80
study Parliamentary law" where the
records Of the Dark Ages alone will fur
nish him so many pregnant hints for
fair just, impartial and patriotic rulings.
