MAJORITY RULE IN CONGRESS.
Methods Adopted to Save Time and
10 Protect Dominant Party.

10 Protect Dominant Party.
This is a big country with big in
terests and 1t is manifestly impossible
to consider all matters in which all
the members are interested in open SEES
sion of the house, says J. Sloat Fassett
in Leslie's Weekly. Rules have been
devised for appointing committees and
apportioning the work. Only the
more important bills can be reported
and only the most urgent of these can
be considered in the whole house. No
rules can be or ought TO be devised
which would enable every member to
take up the time of the house when
ever it so pleased him with any bill
he might choose. So in the house, as
in the world generally, the rule of the
majority prevails. The country, by a
majority vote in the several congress
sional districts, selects the political
party which it desires TO have in con
troll. That majority party, by majority
vote proceeds to organize the house
into working mechanism. The
speaker is elected by a majority and is
always answerable to that majority
The rules are adopted by majority
and are always responsive to that ma
iority. The rules are made with full
provision to protect the rights of each
individual and of the minority. hut
rightly they are framed to enable the
responsible majority to exercise the
power intrusted to it by the people and
for the exercise of which or the failure
to exercise which that majority, ana
that majority alone. is held response
bic. If a Democratic minority, by the
aid Of a small body Of insurgent or
rebelious Republicans. could obtain
possession of the machinery Of legisla-
ton and prevent the majority from
carrying out its pledges the country
would not accept the plea of non pos
sumus. The entire majority would be
held responsible for such breach Of
trust
