sion" Hepburn. Rep. Iowa chairman
of the interstate commerce committee.
offered as an amendment the Nicara-
qua canal bill reported by his commit
tee. Cannon. chairman of the appro-
priations committee, Immediately
raised four distinct points of order
against il.
| First. that it was not germane: second,
that it was directly obnoxious to rule 2l;
third, that it violated the rule requiring
| that appropriations in general appropri-
alton bills should be authorized by law;
fourth. that it was not in continuation of
work authorized by law. This opened up
long parliamentary debate upon the
point of order.
Hepburn argued that the amendment
was sermane and 1t violated no rule. He
der the direction of Congress construc-
lively authorized the work of building
the canal itself. He insisted that the
work of constructing the canal was IN
progress with contemplation of the rule.
w. A. Smith, Rep. Mich. declared that
the Dickinson treaty of 1867 warranted an
appropriation for the construction OF the
canal as much as the treaty of Paris
warranted the appropriation of SIC. 0OO, 00o
carried in this bill. :,
Hepburn declared that the rule invoked
against his amendment was obsolete SO
far as the appropriations committee was
concerned. There were Is distinct Viola
tions of it in the pending bill. It was
only invoked when the. appropriation
committee desired to stand off some IAN
cied raid upon the treasury. There was
a round of applause when Hepburn took
his seat. ,,
Cannon. in reply. said that he would
not consider the wisdom of the canal. ~

Cannon pointed out in response now a
