HR. WILLIAMS As 4 LEADER.

The Hon. John Sharp Williams, the titular
leader Of the minority in the House Of Repre-
sentatives, had another head-on collision last
Tuesday with his reputed following. The Army
Appropriation bill having come back from the
Senate for concurrence, Alr. Williams attempted
once more to rally the opposition to an hysteri-
cal Championship Of the endangered perquisites
Of certain retired general officers now serving
militia adjutants, inspectors, commissaries or
what not full active pay. Again the Demo
Gratis IN the House refused to take their leader
seriously, and a large majority of those voting
deserted him and sided with the ranking Demo
crat on the Military Affairs Committee, Mr.
Hay.
Two such defeats IN fortnight have fatally
shattered Mr. Williamss prestige. It was ru-
mored ten days ago that he would follow the
example Of his immediate predecessors, Mr.
Bailey, Of Texas, and Mr.. Richardson Of Ten
nessee. and vacate trust to which so many of
his colleagues no longer think him equal. But
the Mississippi statesman, instead OF resign
ing after the first snub, preferred to take
chances on another by seeking vindication. He
perhaps imagined that he could force the recall
cirants back in line, and thus publicly re-estab-
nsh his authority. Instead, he has suffered
second and more decisive rebuff, and there
seems 70 be no dignifed course left open to him
but TO ask the rebelHous majority to find an
other leader.
Mr. Wlllams's discontinue comes as soma
thing OF surprise after the hattering successes
Of his first year as the minority's spokesman
AT the last session Of Congress he led the op-
position with intelligence and Judgment His
attitude toward the Panama Canal treaty
and toward Panama Canal legislation showed
breadth Of view and a reasonably firm grasp
on the actualities Of politics. For Southern
statesman he seemed TO show an exceptional
comprehension Of the drift Of national senti-
menr. But with the too easy success of the
movement TO nominate Judge Parker and to
reduce the Northern Democracy once more TO
a mere catspaw Of Southern prejudices, Mr..
Williams apparently lost his balance In his
address as temporary chairman Of the ST. Louis
Convention he made the mistake Of thinking
that the negatiODs OF the Democratic platform
could be successfully plastered over by mere
personalites-by buncombe about Imperial
ISM" the Big Stick and "Jeffersonian sim
picity" During the campaign he showed fur
ther lack OF touch with actual conditions by
making a grotesquey mystifying speech at
White Sulphur Springs and ndUgin2 else
where in what even The Evening Post" has
characterized as unhappy utterances."
IN the issue he raised on the militia service
clause 0f the Army Appropriation bill he
showed the same erratic judgment He saw in
"a proposal OF general scope and Of sound mill
targ policy only a narrow partisan effort 10

ron there was. OF course, 40 basis, and Demo

Originally it was the intention of the founder

with President Butler as to the founders right

the original cause of delay That difference

it at first but In the time that has elapsed he

Allentown, Pa, May 24.-In the con-

struck out the provision making the
decision of the local synod first in all
cases of complaint or appeal except
in questions concerning the construc-
ton OF the constitution. Rev. q. A.
Schwedes of Bethlehem offered res
olution deploring the prevalence of
card playing, dancing and theatergo-
ing among Christians and urging the
pulpit, the Sunday schools and the
young peoples societies to preach
against it. Rev. Schwedes withdrew
the resolution on request after brief
discussion. The synod has adopted
nearly the entire constitution.
