DEMOCRATS WILL MEET TODAY AT
 BENSON
Indications Point to a Large Attendance From Bisbee
 and Douglas.

would lose three votes that were not paired. He
reported to the Speaker and the Committee on
Rules found way to help him without betrayng
his predcament.
The Republican members of that committee
suggested to the Democrats that the debate be on
ordering the previous question rather than the
rule, and an agreement made for an hour on
each side. For the sake of securing more time for
debate, the minority members of the committee

The personal side of these contests on the floor of
the House is most interesting and entertaining
The closest companionships and warmest friend
ships are formed between men who wage battle
against each other like gladators of old. For in
stance, the Speaker in the chair has no greater
adnirer or loyal friend on the floor than the
minority leader, who almost daily denounces him as
autocrat and Cesar. The personal friendship
between these two men is typical of what runs
through the House.
Compromise Is the Leavener
THE man in the Speakers chair looks on the con-
tests here with philosophic mind for it is only
the epitome of the contendng forces of civilization
which in the main bring the resultant of COM
promise the basis of the greatest good to the
greatest number The conflicts and compromises
are more emphasized in the legislation which pro-
poses to distribute public money for public works.
In the last session of the Fifty Congress there
were introduced bills for river and harbor improve
ments which called for appropriations aggregating
more than three hundred million dollars and after
much investigation and many compromises these
combined in omnibus bill authorizing and
appropriating thrty-four million dollars, or little
more than ten per cent. of the money demanded
by the advocates of the various projects. There
were also more than four hundred bills for public
buildings calling for appropriations amounting
to seventy-five million dollars; but no bill was
passed.
The Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds
prepared omnibus bill carrying about sixteen
million dollars for public buildings and three
fourths of the members signed a petition to the

YOU know the names signed to these telegrams?
the Speaker inquired.
"A few of Them but the others also from my
district"
DO YOU know whether these men are in position
to better represent the sentiment of the two hum
dred thousand people in your district than you are?
No, they not; but they may make trouble. !"
Better wait until you hear from those you know
to have influence with the people before you become
weathercock whirling to meet each gentle zephyr,
remarked the Speaker.
How Chicago Got the Fair
THEN he told them how Chicago secured the
Columbian Exposition when New York. Phila-
delphia Washington and St. Louis were all con-
testants with the breezy city of the lakes for
the location by Congress Chicago was not in the
lead The votes of the Southern members were
necessary and they were divided between Washing
ton and St. Louis The Chicago men concluded to
capture the Southern Democratic members of Con-
gress, and they called the telegraph into service
They wired to the Chicago committee to hunt up
every man from the South then a resident of the
Northwest metropolis, and have him wire to
quaintances the South to wire their Representative
They also inspired every business house in Chicago
to wire Southern customers to the same purpose
The result was that the wires were swamped with
messages urging Southern members to vote for
Chicago, and the electric shock these Representa-
tives received was so sudden and sharp that Chi
capo won the fair and the who gave their votes
to that end discovered little later that the demand
to which they had surrendered came from Chicago
and not from home
The Chicago committee paid the tolls and laughed

The whips keep in close touch with the pair clerks
and watch the tally to know who has voted and why

they played the game of pairs with the skill and

Whipping in Absentees

people, who had been asleep while
the whole scheme was perfected in
a Washington hotel.
The Statehood campaign by wire
was not new. The older members
of the House who had gone through
the contest with the location of the
Columbian Exposition and similar
campaigns since were not affected
by it. They knew the game.
Bismarck condemned eloquence
as a crime, because it appealed to
the senses rather than to the Judg-
ment of men, and inspired those
of less wit to foolish, and.-some-
times to criminal, actions. There
are men of eloquence in the House,
and there have been occasions when
the lawmakers have been led to
the verge of foolish action, only
to be stopped by the application
of the old adage that the " hair of
the dog will cure the bite" As
rule, however, the eloquence on the
floor is more entertaining than
influential in shaping legislative
action. Bourke Cochran, Charles
A. Towne, Robert Cousins, Champ
Clark, James E. Watson, Henry S.
Boutell, Edward L. Hamilton, John
Sharp Williams, and Charles B.
Lands are among the most elo-
quent speakers on the floor, and
anyone of them can rouse the
House to enthusiasm; but it is
doubtful if any of them ever
changed a vote by the most effect
i've speech.
Cochran can arouse the minority
to high pitch of enthusiasm by
his Irish eloquence, and make it
howl as though marching to vic
tory; Williams can cheer his fol-
lowers by his sarcasm at the ex-
pense of the majority; Towne and
Cousins can make men forget for
the moment all but the magic of
their oratory; Boutell can stir the
blood, and SO can Watson; Ham
ilton and Lands can entertain with
their epigrams, and Adam Bede
with his humor; but after the en-
thusiasm, the cheers, the quickened
pulse-beats, and the laughter they
may together inspire, the House
settles back to methodical work, as
boys in school go back to their
books after recess. The man in the
chair has only kept time on the

Speaker asking that the Committee
on Rules bring in special rule
for the consideration of this bill.
The Speaker refused this request,
because the appropriations by that
Congress already exceeded the rev.
enues, and there was a large deficit
in the Treasury. The chairman of
that committee pleaded and urged,
and as a final stroke declared:
Then this bill is to fail by the
will of one man who is in the
chair by Our votes, when fully
three-fourths of the representa-
tives of the people demand it We
have no redress from this one-rnan
power
YES, you have" replied the
Speaker. You have a way to
pass this bill. You placed me in
the chair, and you can take me
out of the chair You elected me
to shoulder the responsibility of
the legislation here enacted, and
in my view of the obligation
resting upon me | cannot assume
possibility for this bill to add to
the deficit in the Treasury. You
can elect new Speaker to-day
and pass your bill, if you can find
one who will accept that response
bility. But if you have me in
the chair, your bill will not become
law" That ended the discussion.
The bill remained on the Speakers
table, and by economy the deficit
was wiped out.
According to Curie, the French
analytical chemist of recent fame,
after eight tons of crude ironite
dust has been boiled and filtered
and decanted and crystallized, there
results about a tablespoonful of
pure radium. And this search
for a trace of the real metal in
tons of debris, with the accom-
panying Tuning of acids and steady
glow of furnace, suggests to me
strong analogy with the work con-
fronting each session of the ma
tional House of Representatives.
The mass of proposed legislation.
which includes practically every
element of reformation, is heaped
into the legislative caldron at
Washington for test and analysis.

with the acid of debate and the oil of
compromise, is the change wrought,
