AssAILrNG THE SPEAKER.

| Speaker Reed has been variously and
persistently designated by the Demo-
cratic press as a ruler, "CZar Reed, +"
Autocrat Reed ''Usurper Reed, -
and the like All which is shameful and
calculated to give the people Of other
nations low idea of our claim that we
submit gracefully to the will of the ma
jority. The fact is that Mr.. Reed is
neither autocratic, arbitrary nor DOM
ineering, for his famous ruling concern
ing a House quorum which brought
upon him the wrath of the partisan
Democrats has been sustained by the
Supreme Court, and the principle upon
which he acted has been pronounced
good law very recently by a State
court of final resort.
Speaker Reed is not ruler" since
he is simply following the code of par
liamentary law that has been fortified
by the experience of ages and the judg-
ment of all great parliamentarians, be-
sides, it has been confirmed in the spe-
cial point under consideration by two
American Congresses. The latest
charge against the Speaker, however,
is the most ludicrous. 1t is now said
that his is the "do-nothing policy"
Formerly it was complained that Mr.
Reed favored doing something" and
that he did too much; now it is alleged
by the same GROWERS that he wishes
Congress to do nothing.
When Mr.. Reed had the courage to
defeat the do-nothing, filibustering and
dog in the-manger policy of the Dem
ocratic minority, he was too active"
too aggressive" and always doing
something" Now this same man,
though carrying out the same policy, is
said to be an obstructionist and "a
do-nothing." 1t would be we'll for these
people who think it incumbent upon
them to always abuse the other fell
low" to overhaul the Congressional
wrong they are as to past doIngs of Mr..
Reed, and to wait until the commit
tees are named at least before giving
Speaker Reed new title.
They will probably discover before
this session of Congress is at an end
that Mr.. Reed is neither an obstruc-
zionist, nor bulldozer, but that he is a
fair, chivalrous and courageous man,
an honest interpreter of parliamentary
law, one who seeks out its spirit as well
as reads the words of its expression,
and that he is neither ruler, Car nor
other than the faithful representative
of the law of the House.

We exported almost as much to ports
of Great Britain in the last fiscal year
as to all other parts of the globe COM
bined. This fact should have some
weight with us in considering the rela-
lions Of the two nations, and in deter
mining whether we wish to have war
with our best customer. We should
permit England to pinch our toes at no
time and in no manner, and we should
resist any attempt on her part to &C.
cupy more territory on the American
continents under an insufficient plea Of
right to possess. We ought not to make
ourselves ridiculous, however, by at
tempting to provoke the two English
speaking nations into war that could
at best only result disastrously to each.
1t is no special evidence of American
ism to be shouters against other ma
tions. True Americanism demands the
right for America, and just as en-
phatically insists that the United States
shall do right

Acknowledgement Harmon in his re-
cent report advises that action be taken
to prevent abuse of the right" of ap-
peal to the United States Supreme
Court in capital cases. Latterly it
would seem that in a majority of cases
where men have been tried for murder
under the circumstances which made
these fellows particularly notorious, the
effort has been made to get the sases be-
fore the Federal Court by some sort of
twist relative to the involvement of a
Federal question" The Attorney-G Gen
eral is convinced that the most of such
appeals are taken for sake of delay
only, and not to further the ends of
justice. AS the law now is, repeated
appeals, says the Attorney General,
can be made, in one way or another.
and this the Attorney General wishes
corrected forthwith. He is eminently
wise in these recommendations. What
we want in criminal procedure in this
country to insure the doing Of justice
is more celebrity and more certainty. 1t
is probable that these cannot be had
so far as the Federal Courts are con-
cerned, without action by Congress,
and it should be taken now without any
hesitation.

Mr.. Hazeltine in the North Ameri-
can Review considers the relation of
the United States Government to the
Venezuelan difficulty, and makes an
excellent point when he says that if
the Monroe doctrine has any virtue in
it at all, it justifies our intervention in
| the Venezuelan boundary dispute, be-
cause the essence of he"doctrine"is this,
we cannot view with unconcern any act
on the part of foreign powers to sub
vert or control the liberties, indepen-
dence and destinies of any American
State. Now says the essayist: Scarcely
anyone will argue that the forcible dis
memberment of an American repub-
lies territory is distinguishable from
an attempt to subvert it's liberties or
to control it's destiny. To an attempt to
could reply that you take my life when
you take the means whereby / live; and
that, should England assume a COM
handing position at the mouth of the
Orinoco, she would in the strictest sense
control the destiny of the Venezuelan
commonwealth; she would, in truth
have set her hand upon its throat
Much the same thing may be said of
England's apparent determination to
take possession of the remarkably ex-
tensive and rich auriferous deposits on
the banks of the Yuruan River in the
Venezuelan Territory of Uruary. The
tremendous significance of the double
wrong inflicted may be measured in a
sentence. 1t is as if Great Britain dur
ing our civil war, making a vantage
ground of proximity and believing us
incapable of self-defense, had under
taken to rob us, on the one hand, of
California, and, on the other, of the
control of the Mississippi

someness is better than mere beauty of

nervousness and other disorders peculiar
to women.
If there is drain on the system and

Abused nerves draw lines of care and
