NOTHING RUFFEL THIS
NEW LEADER.

John Sharp Williams. the new
Democratic leader in the House d
Representatives. has one distinction
above his colleagues He IS the
only member Of Congress who was
schoolmate Of the German EN-
peror. They were to gether at
Heidelberg. Williams is willing to
forget it but his friends will not,
and he is pointed ont from the gall
cries with as much enthusiasm al
if he were Poultney Biglow.
Williams is from Mississippi, a
lawyer and Gotten planter, and has
been in Congress for ten years.
He is highly educated, speaks
several languages, is somewhat Of a
wit, good deal Of a story-teller,
and can make a humorous speech
if the occasion demands. These
attributes make him popular with
his fellows, and added to them are
a wide knowledge Of legislative
methods, keen mind, and All in
stant readiness in debate.
He will be a good leader, for he
keeps his temper. No assault can
rulie Williams. He is calm and
smiling through the bitterest pas
sages with the Republicans, The
leader who sputters and fumes is
lost, for he can not get his own
people to follow him, to say nothing
Of making an impression on the
other side.
Williams is a regular Democrat. /
He has followed the party through
very devious path He was for
Cleveland, and he was for Bryan.
Now he is preaching the doctrine
If get-together. His principal
work in this Congress will be to
ecure stronger Democrats on the
zig committees of the house.
