In their clothes, and the wearing of the

THE ONE ISSUE.

In the course Of time, and limited time
at that, we will probably know the real
reason for Speaker Henderson's sudden
retirement. A personal friend Of his in
Washington is quoted as saying that the
Speaker learned that Congressman Bah
cock. Hull and others had conspired g
defeat his renomina ton as Speaker, and
had gathered enough strength to accom-
plsh it. This friend further says that
Henderson had no nlisgivings as to his
since it had been arranged by the lead
ers in his party to keep him out of the
Speakership, his resentment reached the
red hot stage that made it easy to be
moulded into rage; that kind Of unn1an-
ageable rage that made him not only
willing, but anxious, to pull down some
Of the pillars in the party temple, even
though there was danger Of his being
crushed by the falling walls.
Whether this explanation be the COR
rect one or not, the leaders have been
quick to adopt it as such. and already
declare that Speaker Henderson misre.
presented the situation in his district. and
that there is no cause for alarm. This
is important to Democrats in that it
shows the leading Republicans are bent
upon ignoring the demand for tariff re-
form, and gives Democrats cue that
is of value. The Honorable Horace Boise,
who has been called upon TO bear the
Democratic banner in Henderson's dis
