PRESS COMMENTS.

tSpringfleld Union.)

sherman Hoar, Democrat and an ey-
member of Congress has told the members
of the Boston Christian Union that
Speaker Reed was right in insisting upon
the House of Representatives acting in
stead of blocking legislation by dilatory
motions. This is tribute that should
count for something. He also told these
young men that the Democrats put the
power to prevent dilatory notions into the
hands of committee of five because
they hated to acknowledge that
Reed was right. Further he admitted
that the committee of five was not so
much OF success as tho speaker Is
Is time that the Democrats dropped tho
Car Reed abuse and honestly admitted
that America greatest statesman was
right. Under the leadership Of Reed
under Reeds rules, the House has gone
ahead and accomplished something and
the people know that the credit belongs
TO the speaker. Now if the Democrats
and Republicans of the Senate will get
