FIELD DAY IN THE HOUSE.

SauabbIins on the Rules.

The Speaker and Democratic Members
SquabbIing on the Rules.
WASHINGTON, March When the
Speaker called the House to order at
noon today he was confronted with a
large array Of empty seats. Before the
reading of the journal, Mr.. Catchings of
Mississippi, called up the resolution set
ting apart three days for the considera-
ton of the silver bill and the clerk pro-
ceeded to read it and upon its adoption
Mr.. Catchings demanded the previous
question.
Mr.. Tracy of New York called atten-
ton to the lact that the journal had not
been read.
The Speaker declared it was in order
for the gentleman from Mississippi to
call up resolution.
Mr.. Tracy of New York, and his col
league Mr.. Fitch of New York, vigorous
ly protested against the ruling of the
Speaker. which was defended by Nh.
Bland of Missouri, and very warm col
loquy ensued between Mr.. Tracy and the
Speaker as to the right of the former
gentleman to the floor.
A warm controversy also arose after
the conclusion of Mr. Bland's remarks.
In those remarks he alluded to a conver-
sation he had had with Mr. Cochran Of
New York and Andrew of Massachusetts
in which these gentlemean had stated
that if the consideration of the resolu-
ton was postponed till today there would
be no fillibustering on the part of the
anti-silver men and he charged these
anti-silver men with bad faith.
To this charge Mr.. Cochran made fierce
denial. He had had a conversation with
the gentleman from Missouri and at that
conversation Mr. Bland had declined to
agree that the resolution be taken up
today. 1t was only after he had talk
with the members of the committee on
rules that Mr.. Bland had consented to it.

RoCKLAND, March THE election in
this city today resulted as usual in a
sweeping victory for the Republicans,
who reelected Hon. Edward A. Butler for
mayor. His plurality is 315, against 313
for last year. The seven Republican cam
didates for aldermen were also elected,
the only close fight being between Asa
P. St. Clair, Rep, and Joseph Lynn,
Dem, Of Ward 2. st. Clair wins by about
five votes. In Ward 5, there was consid-
cradle rivalry between Berry, Rep, and
Keyes, Dem, but the former wins by a
large plurality. In Ward 6, Capt. David
Fl. Ingraham was on both tickets and
polled perhaps the largest vote of any
candidate. The complete list of alder
men is as follows: Ephraim Perry, Asa
P. st. Clair, Chas. S. Crockett, r. s. Mil
ler, Z. w. Berry, David II. Ingraham and
Chas. S. Smith. In addition to this, every
councilman, warden and ward clerk is
Republican, so it will be seen that the
next city government is Overwhelmingly
and unanimously of that faith. The

Fitz Henry Twitchell is a Portland
boy, and was born in 1856. His father,
Thomas E. Twitchell, since deceased, was
wholesale dry goods dealer in the For
est City. AS a boy, Mr. Twitchell re-
ceived his education in the public schools
and after completing course of study in
the Portland High school, he entered the
employ of Locke, Twitchell q Co., in
which firm his father was a partner. As
travelling salesman he was assigned to a
territory comprising portions of northern
Vermont, the upper part of New York
and Canada. He followed the dry goods
business until January, 1879, when he
went to Bath and became associated with
the Worumbo Manufacturing Company
as clerk of the corporationli which posi-
ton he still holds. He is at present con-
nected with numerous other enterprises,
mostly manufacturing. He holds the
office of treasurer of the Androscoggin
Water Power Company, and serves the
Bath Gas and Electric Light and Power
Company in the same capacity. He is a
director in many other corporations i'll
New England.
Mr.. Twitehell is also prominent i'll the
secret orders. He is Mason and a past
commander of Dunlap Commandery,
Knights Templar. When Dunlap enter
tanned the Communicates from Vinal-
haven and ST. Johnsbury, nearly two
years ago, one of the pleasantest fea-
lures was the short hour spent in festivi-
ties at his home on Washington street.
He is high in rank among the Knights
Of Pythias, being a past grand chancellor
of Maine.
Mr.. Twitchell married Miss Emma
Patten Harding in 1882. She was the
daughter of Col. E. X. Harding, former
1y prominent citizen of Bath, but for a
numbeH,of years deceased. They have
one child, daughter.
In person the Shipping City's mayor is
large, broad shouldered and inclined to
be stout. His remarkable resemblance
to the portrait of the Prince of Wales is a
matter of frequent comment.

AUGUSTA, March Much comment
and criticism has been occasioned among
the pastors and church goers by the call
ing of four of the seven Republican ward
caucuses in this city for next Wednesday.
This is unprecedented as the regular
prayer meetings of the churches are held
that night. An effort will be made to
get the committees to change the calls
and hold the caucuses, as heretofore, the
last of the week. The friends of j. Fl.
Manley claim they will carry the
caucuses called for Wednesday.

Under Them the House Was a Body

UNDER CRISP'S REIGN FREE.
DOM OF ACTION is STIFLED.
The Truly Remarkable Performance of
the Observation-Disclosures Practice
Entirely Disregarded in Order to Force
Free Silver to the Front--Crisp De-
nounced by His Own Party-Mr. Reed
Made the Democrats Vince.
Especial to the Press.1

WASHINGTON, March THE creed
rules the burden of countless Demo-
cratic editorials, the target for the shafts
of abuse of every Democrat on the stump
last year, which were so fiercely de-
nounced on the floors of the last Con-
gress by the great unterrified for their
tyranny and which the Supreme court of
the United States has so neatly and unan-
imously sustained, are not in it alongside
of Mr. Crisp's little joker. In the hands
of the present Speaker, the committee
on rules is not only the controller of the
business of the House, but it is able to
say what business the House shall con-
slider. Never was there tyranny like
this since the time when parliamentary
law first took concrete shape.
The action of Speaker Crisp and his
committee on rules today in deciding
that the silver report could be considered
before the Journal of Saturdays session
had been read, was
Such an Unheard of Thing
and was such an utter disregard and vio-
lation of all parliamentary law and pre-
cedent, that it is no wonder the Demo-
Gratis were utterly aghast at the impu-
dence of the proposition and
are tonight roundly denouncing the
Speaker for doing what is
bound to react on his party. In the last
Congress, although Mr.. Reed declined to
entertain dilatory motions and the entire
spirit of the rules was directed toward
facilitating the progress of business, he
never refused the demand of the Demo-
Gratis to have the journal read in full.
This was favorite form of filibustering
on the part of the ''reformers'' and often
hours were wasted while the clerks
monotonously droned out the names of
members on roll calls of the day previ-
Gus and went through the farce of read
ing every line relating to the business of
the last session. But Mr.. Crisp is a
"Reformer' With Vengeance,
and he today showed the House that par
liamentary law, as well as tariff reform,
''takes no backward step by my cleo
tion.'
But even more criminal in the abuse of
the power lodged in his hands, was his
failure t, allow the House to decide
whether or no it would consider the
business reported to it from the commit
tee on rules. Mr.. Tracy made this mo-
tion, which in the opinion of the ablest
parliamentarian in the House, was a
perfectly proper motion to make. But
such thing did not suit the Speaker
and it pleased him to rule that when the
committee on rules makes report the
House has no alternative except to con-
slider it. This ties the hands of the
House completely and, instead of being
deliberative body, it becomes simply
the creature of the committee on rules
that is to say, the Speaker and the two
men he has placed there to do his bid
ding. Could arrogance go further.
Speaker Crisp showed today that he is
totally unfit for the place he occupies.
