"who is Your Prophet.,


"Who is Your PrOphet:"
Mr.. Cannon, Republican, of Illinois,
who followed Mr.. Enloe, waXed sar-
castle.
4 wouldn't say anything" said he,
against that good and great man,
Grover Cleveland. If L dipped my
tongue in gall 1 could not say any
thing as mean against him as the
Democratic press is saying"
He created great amusement by tell
ing how the Democratic National con-
vention had prepared a platform, and
how afterward that great and good
man" had written a letter, modifying
it. Turning to the Democratic side, he
asked. "Who is your prophet? Is II
Grover? Is it Walter Q. Gresham, or
is it Hoke Smith,"
Give it up" calculated Mr.. Burrows,
amid great laughter.
Mr.. Cannon struck right and left.
He referred to Mr.. Bland as the
''wild-eyed son of destiny from Mis-
souri, and wanted to know why the
Democrats, in choosing him for the
most responsible office in the gift of
their administration, were obliged to
draft renegade Republicans or mug
wumps
After Mar. Cannon had concluded, the
debate took a different shoot.
Mr.. Wise, OemocraD, from Virginia,
delivered a speech in which he chal-
lenged Mr.. Reed to claim the credit
for the idea of counting members to
make a quorum.
Reed Stole the Idea.
The originator of that idea, he as
serted, was John Randolph Tucker, of
Virginia, who, fourteen years ago, pro-
posed modification of the rules de-
signed to take into account the pres
ence of members in making UP a
quorum. but who refused TO vote; but
on that occasion Mr.. Reed had, with
the greatest vehemence, denounced the
proposition. He had urged that it was
not the physical presence of majority
of the members which the Constitution
had contemplated as a quorum, but a
majority present and participating a
thing" added Mr.. Wise, sarcastically,
which Thomas B. Reed has not done

and Republicanism. The attempt on
your side to falsify history and your
own Mr.. Reed, as a leader, is making
him, in the sight of his former declara-
tons, ridiculous
Mr.. Walker Republican,, from Mas
sachusetts, replied to Mr.. Wise in a
speech, in which he cited, at length,
the firm opposition to the quorum-count-
ing rule met by Speaker Reed at the
time of its adoption in the Fifty-first
Congress.
Mr.. Grosvenor Republican,, from
Ohio, concluded the debate for the day,
with some remarks about the manner
in which the Wilson bill had been bat
tered beyond recognition by the Sen
ate.
Mr. Grosvenor finished finally, and
the committee rose and the House, at
4:40, adjourned.

Browns Last Order IA Gem of Com
monyveaI Literature.

Orleans Roads. Va, April 1S.-The
commonweal passed last night afioat
between Green Springs and Bill Bells
locks, forty miles east of Cumberland.
Browns twenty-fourth general order
was a gem of commonweaI literature.
The chief marshal said:
There are events in the lives of
men like an oasis in the desert, green
spots that can never be effaced from
the memory of man so long as reason
holds its sway. The past three DAYS
Of the commonweal Of Christ have
been such spots, each succeeding day
being more pleasant than the past.

WHAT WILL THEY DO?
Breckinridge "a White Elephant to
the House.

Washington, April 1S.-The feeling
among the leading members of the
House of Representatives is that no
action could be taken concerning the
Breckenridge scandal, although one Of
the best lawyers in the House said the
Constitution gave ample authority.
The precedents cited, however, deal al
most exclusively with offenses of a
personal nature committed on the floor
of the House, as for instance, the case
of Brooks, who was expelled for as
saulting Charles Sumner with a cane
There appears to be a lack of pre-
cedents for offenses committed outside
of Congress. Some members who were
interviewed declare that no action can
be taken on the numerous petitions
which are said to be on the way to the
House, demanding the expulsion of
Breckenridge, these members affirming
that Breckenridge is only answerable
to his constituents, but the burden of
Congressional opinion is against this
view though it is pretty generally adj
mitted that no action on the petitions
will be taken further than allowing
them to be read

ions Are Wanted.
Hancock, Md, April 1S.-Coxey's
army sailed into barren seas, when it
reached Hancock today. A run of
twenty miles was made between break
fast and sunset, the flotilla drawing
up under the Hancock bridge for a late
supper. But the supper had to come
out of the commisary wa CONS. Bad
news greeted the leaders. The unknown
Smith, who had promised to go ahead
and pave the way for the army had
done so with a vengeance. He, 1.-The
yelled lady and Cheek Childs,
young man who had been the army's
advance agent from Massilion, had
come to town the previous day and
holding a public meeting had raised
sum of money, how much it could not
be learned, on the strength of creden-
tials from CoXey.
Brown and Coxey at once published
letter to Mayor Hubert, denouncing
the men as impostors and asking their
arrest for obtaining money under false
pretenses. But the three fakirs had
flown for Williamsport the next stop
ping place of the army, and messages
were sent ahead asking their detention.
The Coxey men practically took possess
