The License of Minorities.

We have been taught to believe that
ours is a government of the maiority. but
recent congressional and legislative re-
suits would tend to show that in not a
few instances ours ia government of tho

seen during the past few days how the
democratic minority in the House OF
Representatives, taking advantage Of the
rules intended to protect the rights Of
the weaker political organization against

longed and careful hearing, decided that
one OF the democratic members was not
entitled to his seat.
We have seen handful of United

United States Senate for weeks, throue h
constant flibustoring and the interposi-
ton of dilatory motions and thus not
only preventing the upper branch of Con-
eress from considering important meas
urcs whose passage the interests of the
American people demanded, but also in
flicting upon the taxpayers Of the country
the expense OF an extra session and pro-
longing the uncertainty resulting from
the deliberations of our national lawmak-
cis which arc nearly always the source
