SPECTRAL 10 ne l.
Washington, Dec 23.-Speaker
Cannon has effectively sidetraoked q
congressional investigation of the su-
gar trust, which threatened to in
clude a probe of the joker in the su
gar schedule of the tariff bill.
When the resolution providing for
an inquiry by joint committee of
the house and senate was offered. TN
Gle Joe referred the measure to the
committee on rules. which he domi-
mates absolutely, and which was
equivalent to referring the matter to
himself
The committee on rules Is composed
of FIVE members-three republicans
and two democrats. The speaker is
the chairman of the committee and he
appoints the other four members The
two democrats might as well not be
on the committee. as they stand no
show in voting against three repub-
licans. In addition TO Speaker Can
non, the majority side of the commit
tee consists of Dalzell of Pennsyl-
vania, close friend of Aldrich, and
Smith of Iowa. Dalzell and Smith
are mere flgure-heads on this COM
mittee. They allow Cannon to do
what he pleases, and thus the COM
mittee on rules is, to all practical
ends. one man-Joseph G. Cannon.
The resolution for the investiga-
ton of the sugar trust frauds will. in
all likelihood, never be heard of any
more. IT will die a death that is nat

by the powerful special interests, that

holes in the desk of the chairman of
the committee on rules.
Although the session has hardly
begun, the sugar trust resolution is
not the only one the committee on
rules has swallowed since December
6. A resolution providing for an in
vestigation of the Ballinger-P -Pinchot
controversy, which would necessarily
be an investigation of Ballinger, has
been chloroformed by the speaker
This resolution was also sent to the
committee on rules.
What Uncle Joe has done to the
two resolutions referred to. he can dc

similar fates to scores of like meas
ures in past sessions of congress. And
Iif he should decide to appoint a com

In the case of the two resolutions

in two instances already this session
the speaker has shown himself the

A LINOTYPE SLUG ACCOUNT.

A boy from a downtown printing
office entered a Park row saloon the
other night. placed half n dozen cans
on the bar and threw down at the
same time a handful of lead strips
The bartender filled the pals, then
carefully examined the pieces of lead
and tossed them into separate COM
partments where were already many
like them.
The boy meanwhile walked out
with the foaming pals. He had not
said one word.
This mystifying transaction was
too much for a man who was taking
his nightcap, and he demanded an
explanation.
"Oh," said the bartender. there's
nothing mysterious about that.

The committee has the power to

FOURTEEN MISTAKES OF LIFE.

Judge Rentoul. OF London, Eng
land. is a philosopher much admired
in that metropolis Speaking at a
banquet recently, he gained much ap-
plause by describing the following as
the fourteen important mistakes peo-
pie make In this life:
To attempt to set up our own
standard of right and wrong and ex-
pect everybody to conform to it.
To try to measure the enjoyment
OF others by our own.
To expect uniformity of opinion in
this world.
To look for Judgment and expert
cnce in youth.
To endeayor to mold all disposi-
tions alike.
Not to yield in unimportant trifles.
To look for perfection in our own
actions.
To worry ourselves and others
about what cannot be remedied.
Not to alleviate If we can all that
needs allevlation.
Not to make allowances for the
weaknesses of others.
To consider anything impossible
that we cannot ourselves perform.
To believe only what our finite
minds can grasp.
To live as If the moment, the time,
the day were so important that it
would live for ever.
To estimate people by some outside
quality for it is that within which
makes the man.
In the course of his speech Judge
Rontoul told number of amusing
anecdotes. One was of the clergy
man who told the bride-to-be that it
was very serious thing to get mar
ried. Yes" was the answer, but
it's more serious not to get married" "
Among the aphorisms employed by
the Judge were:
''Stubbornness over trifles blocks
the business of life, though 1t does
more for the lawyer than all the 9th
cr phases of human life"
"A young lady's nose Is undoubted-
~ prettier than bulldogs nose, but
we find that the bulldogs nose is
about five times as good at smelling.
