RULES VICTORY DIVIDED.

How did the insurgents come out IN their fight
against Speaker Cannon and for revision OF the
House rules"
''The House reelected Speaker Cannon. and the
fight the House rules which has been waged so
fercely by the insurgents resulted practically in
drawn battle. The Insurgents aided by the Dem
ocrats, defeated resolution TO adopt the existing
rules OF the House and forced the adoption Of Ger
tain notifications which they hope will curtail the
power OF the Speaker and the Committee on Rules,
and insure the consideration OF bills favorably re-
ported by committees. The Cannon forces defeated
a resolution taking away from the Speaker the
power OF appointing committees. which, had 1t
passed, would have meant the gradual, but none
the less certain disintegration OF the House or
gan1ation.
Democrats who bolted from their party really
gave the victory to the Speaker. According to
House parliamentarans the changes In the rules
have served only TO strengthen the Speakers
power. relieve him Of responsibility and place him
beyond criticism. to which formerly he was open.
The tendency Of the rules, they say, Will be 70
make a perpetual Speaker and an ephemeral mem
bership.'
