mated to-day that the lions which stand in the
path OF Congressional legislation have no ter

so often that he has not only ceased to scare
when they roar but, if the need arises, Is pre-
pared TO twist their tails.
These lions often resolve themselves into ami
mails of much milder type when we reach the
points in the path that they are obstructins

How about the beef biI?" the Speaker was
asked.
Don't know thing about it, he replied
But do know this. There is desire on the

Later in the day after the House met, Speaker
Cannon, again speaking of beef. said:
II have not given much consideration TO the
