Needed the Prayers.

A sympathetic old clergyman in an
English country village was waited
on one Sunday morning just before
Uervice by a young man, who said:
"Will you kindly ask the congrega-
tons prayers this morning for poor
William Smith,
'Willingiy," said the clergyman.
And at the proper moment in the
service he besought all those present
to pray earnestly for the unfortunate
William Smith in the great trouble
and peril that, encompassed him. The
request, he was pleased to note, made
a deep impression on the congregation.
After the service, meeting the young
man who had asked for intercession
in Smiths behalf, the clergyman said:
"What is the matter with your
friend? Do you think it would do
any good if were to call on him?"
'I'm afraid not" was the sorrowful
reply.
''Is it so bad as that?' said the cler
gyman. what is the trouble, theE?'

Heaven is not reached at a single bound,
But we build the ladder by which we

From the lowly earth to the vaulted

That a noble deed is a step toward God,
Lifting the soul from the common clod
To a purer air and broader view.

RULES WERE NOT AMENDED so
AS TO TAKE POWER FROM
THE SPEAKER.
Fitzgerald Resolution Did Nothing
More Than Secure for Author
Lucrative Plum.

WASHINGTON, April 2-(SpeciaD
Congress is still doing business un-
der rules that are practically as vi
ciOus as they ever were. This informa :
ton is for the enlightment of those
who, during the recent attack on the
rules. got the impression Speaker Can
non was robbed of a large amount of
power.
Nothing could be further from the
truth, although Uncle Joe" is willing
that we imagine so. The fact is, that
instead Of the Fitzgerald resolution es-
tablishing changes in the rules that
were unsatisfactory to Uncle Joe, the
measure was introduced wi h Uncle
Joe's o. X. Uncle Joe liked the curb"
it placed on his power so well he i'm
mediately rewarded Fitzgerald with
one of the most luscious plums in the
congressional orchard-an appointment
to the ways and means committee.
Sufficient time has now passed to OBJ
tain an accurate line on the real mean
ing Of the Fitzgerald resolution. 1t
means that advocates of reform in the
house rules were fooled again. The
resolution made it appear Uncle Joe's
usefulness to the protected interests
was being dealt master blow. AS
matter of fact the old rules were
adopted with only few cheating
amendments.
Sneaker CacnOn's p1Wer has hardly

, in this house by operation of the pres
amendments put into them, can be
| made to report any particular meas
ure or to suppress during the entire
life of congress other measures along
any line or any particular measure re-
ferred to the committee.
1.-The present instnce shows the read
mess with which the committee on
rules is operated Whenever a thing
may be little difficult, apply to the
committee on rules.
Il am one of those who believe it
would be great improvement, one Of
lasting and far-reaching benefit to
have the committee on rules represen-
tative of the house and not merely rep
resentative of the speaker; have the
committee on rules made by the selec-
ton of tn members of the house. and
not made solely by the selection of the
speaker.
"These rules concentrate in the
speaker powers that belong in the
house. There can not be any right or
any power which, under the consti-
IutlOn anu ny Virtue VI his eleCtiOH,
belong to him without a wrong being
done, no, only TO him and his con-
stituency, but to the whole people OF
the United States and a dangerous
blow being struck at our institutions
themselves. That is the reason that /
am opposed to this one-man power; l
am opposed to this agency which oper-
ates to deprive members of what be-
longs to them and concentrates it
somewhere else"
These criticisms of the rules after
: he adoption of the Fitzgerald resou-
ton "cuibing' the speakers power,
read no different from the criticisms
made before the rules were revised.
The situation is practically unchanged
from what it was in the sixtieth
congress. Uncle Joe is still in a po-
sition to legislate for the entire mem
,ership of the house.

Before the Mckinley bill was passed
the republican party was warned just
as It Is being warned now. Pass this
BILL" wrote James G. Blaine. to Rep
resentatiye Mckinley. then chairman
OF the house ways and means COM
mittee '.and in 1892 there will not be
= man in all the party so beggared as
to accept your nomination for the pres
,idency. Such movements as this for
protection will protect the republican
party into speedy retirement"
The Mckinley bill was passed in the
spring Of 1890. In the congressional
elections which followed in the fall.
Blain9s prophecy was fulfilled. The
republican majority in the house was
swept away. When congress met In
1891, the democratic representatives
numbered 2s5, and the republicans So.
while in the senate the republican ma
sority was reduced from II to 9.

1000 Men Set to Work.

JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind, April e.
The American Car and Foundry Co.
will put 1000 men at work here within
six weeks. 1t is understood that the
first delivery on the order for the Rock
Island of sexenty passenger coaches
has been promised early. The cars are
worth fully $4,000 each, making the
contract about $350,0O0, and orders
bringing the total to another 100000
and meaning continuous work for IL
months, are on the books.
There are Is men at present en-
ployed principally in getting ready
and many cid employees are returning.
1t is stated unofficially that the local
shops may be used almost exclusively
henceforth for building passenger
coaches, especially with steel frames
and bottoms.

been diminished at all, for he will
again appoint all committees and again
pack them for or against measures
He can control the committee on rules
and interspOse his own arbitrary will
against reforms which may be de-
manded by the general public A good
part of the credit for this situation is
due President Taft. who not only gave
his tacit sanction to the plan to MAIN
tain both Cannonism and the old rules
in the house of representatives, but
used all the support he could muster
to prevent this situation from being
improved upon by the insurgents and
democrats.
Now, as before, there are three men,
bers of the rules committee. Cannon is
chairman. An illustration of how he
uses this committee to carry out any
personal program was afforded when
the census bill came up.
Here we have the first fruits. In
this congress, of the action of the rules
committee" said Rep. David A. De-
Almond, of Missouri, on the floor of
the house, in protesting vainly against
the rules "They have taken out Of
regular channels a bill, as it turns out
in this particular instance. which
easily could come before the house
wi. hout their agency, and to which
probably there is no particular OBJ
lection; but what they have done with
this bill is precisely what they can do
wi h any other bill at any time.

merely to echo the sentiment and TO
