Bad Blood Between Speaker Crisp and
Representative Cochran.
WARRINGTON. Jan. 3l.-Speaker Crisp and
Representative Cochran have had disagree
ment over the distribution OF the time allowed
for tho debate on the income tax. There has
been bad blood between Speaker Crisp and Mr..
Cochran for some time past, but 1t is only
within the last week that there havo been any
surface indications Of friction between them.
It is understood that Mr.. Cochran was
making an indirect drive at Speaker Crisp
when he sarcastically asked. in his Tuesdays
speech. who among tho Southern Democrats
would stop forward and take UP the cloak
which was laid down by the late Alexander II.
Stephens. There Is n wide gulf between tho
Speaker and the eloquent member from New
York. and their personal relations have not
been improved BY the manner In which the
debate on the income tax has been conducted.
Mr.. Cochran says that he has been ill-treated
bv Speaker Crisp and also BY Chairman Rich
ardson In tho distribution OF the time allowed
for the discussion OF tho income tax.
As the leader OF the minority in the
Ways and Means Committee in oppos-
ing the income tax. he claimed tho right
under tho ordinary rules OF practice in tho
House to control the time allowed for the
minority. This privilege was denied him by
Speaker Crisp. who tried to induce ex-Speaker
Noeu 10 out tue tltTe tHe luluOElND.
Mr.. Reed is not opposed to the income tax in
the same manner that Mr. Cochran is. and as
the latter has done most OF the fighting against
the bill in the com mittse and also in the House.
IL was expected that he would ts selected to
