The rules adopted by the 3Stb
General Assembly are known as
"Reed's Rules. 1t will be a ques.
ton of a short time when the rules
that have been. presented to the
country by Thomas b. Reed will
have secured the same wide spread

been given to Jefferson's manual.
After the session of Congress in
which Mr.. Reed was compelled to
count absent Democrats in order to
secure a quorum, the rules that were
adopted by the Missouri House of
Representatives were written. The
work is known as "Reed's Manual
of Parliamentary Procedure. We

THE tendency of Democratic
legislation is to degrade labor: to
tear down rather than build up the
the status of the people who work
for wages. This Is matter of his
tory. well established. 1t tends to
bring the wage earners of our own
country to level with the labor of
foreign nations. which has for cen
turies been ground down and de
graded by an idle and useless aris
tocracy. 1t was the Democratic
party that tried to build up such
a system Of caste in this country.
The nearest approach to an estab-
iishcd aristocracy We have ever
known was built up by the Demo
cratic party in the South, and was
founded upon, and maintained by.
degraded human labor. This
aristocracy wanted the making of
the nations laws all in its own hands.
and for many years had it; but
when it tried to extend its power
beyond its own confines, the true
democracy of the country rose anc
crushed the life ont of the thing
Since that time the standing of ON
laboring class has risen to a poin
never before attained in either an
cient or modern times. 1t is thi;
high status of our laboring masse
that the Democratic party Of toda,
is entleavoring to destroy by bring
ing it in into direct competition
with the oppressed pauper labo
of aristocracy-ridden Europe.

SENATOR VEST made a great
speech recently in which he de-
cIarcd that he had never changed
bis opinion on the silver question:
to quote his own words:
If had changed my opinion
could not stand here today and look
without Il mantle Of shame upon
my checks. into the faces of people,
who thirty-tiyc years ago. heard
me defend the princi pies of the
Democratic party in this old coun-
try Of ours.
OF course. the Senator includes
free coinage as one Of the great
principles Of the party, but what
what if the party should not de
clare for free coinage. which con
tingency Is most likely to confront
the Senator. In such case he will
either have to change views on the
coinage question or else have a very
poor opinion Of the party he so
>tongly adheres to.
