REED CREATES IMPRESSIVE sILENcE
At tho conclusion OF the reading oi
the Presidents letter. Mr.. Reed, the
leader oi tho minority, arose. For
almost moment the cheers and shouts
OF his political colleagues rang out. :.
II take 1t for granted, Mr. Speaker" "
he began, "that the gentleman 10 whom
the letter was addressed to which We
hayo iust listened has observed oil the
proprieties which gentlemen ordinarily
observe with regard to their cores
poudouce, and that letter which is
marked personal having been ad-
dressed to him, ho has not been guilty
in any way Of making public in this
fashion without tha express consant OF
tho author. Hence, VIC haVo here to-
day the somewhat remarkable spectacle
OF message sent by the President OF
the United Statos to tho house OF repre-
eentativos through his faithful commit
tee on ways aud means, This seems to
be Just reciprocal action on his part,
for the house will rocollsct that the
committee on ways aud means commun-
icated 20 the house It's intention Of hay-
ing an income tax through the Kind
moss OF tho President OF tho United
Statas. Loud applause on the Ropub-
lican side.
