The Speaker Makes Long Delayed An |
nouncement of Appointments.
Washington, Dec. 5.-When the
house convened to-day the speaker
announced the committees.
Mr.. De Almond (dem., MO- said
that on each Of the sixteen most i'm
portant committees the republicans
have eleven members and the demo-
Gratis six. This, he said, was unjust to
the minority. Mr.. De Almond said
he would propose resolution to add
one democrat to each.
Mr.. Martin (rep., S. D. reviewed
the operation of the various demo,
cratic and republican tariffs and said
that the protective tariff principle had
been thoroly established in the coun-
try. If the democrats ever wished to
assume the reins of government, he
thought, some other issues than the
tariff would have to be advanced.
