speaker. Second. when consideration
OF a bill is concluded and the previous
question is ordered. the rules hereto
fore have provided for a motion to
commit with or without instructions.
II has been the practice TO recognize
member OF the majority party to
make this motion and thus prevent
the minority from Offering such in
structions as II may desire The new
rule gives the minority the preference
In making such a motion, and thus
enables them to get a record vote on
propositions which would otherwise be
settled in committee of the whole
house. where no record vote is pos
sible. Third, 1t protects the calendar
Wednesdays by requiring a two-thirds
instead OF a majority vote to set II
aside. Fourth. it is also claimed that
the amendment will have the effect OF
preventing favoritism by the action of
the committee on rules in special
cases.
A prominent feature of the Clark
resolution was an amendment provid-
ing for committee Of fifteen members
to revise. amend and codify the rules.
and much of the opposition to it was
because OF this fact. AS adopted the
Fitzgerald amendment makes no
change in the present method of the
selection of the committee on rules.
which is made by the speaker. nor is
there any change in the method OF Sc
lecting committees.
Speaker Cannon is inclined to re-
gard the amendment as a slight i'm
provement on the present rules, In
that instead of throwing the RESPONSE
bility for recognition on him 1t sets
aside certain days for the considera.
ton OF measures under unanimous
consent; but he says. under the new
rule members will have to wait for
those days.
Cannon Says Bryan Interfered.
In a conversation soon after the ac-
ton OF the house he commented freely
upon the fact that Mr.. Bryan had in
terfered in the interest of the changes
submitted by Mr.. Clark, and spoke of
the adoption of the Fitzgerald substi-
tute as triumph over the BRYAN
forces, saying that the conservative
Democrats who really want legislation
had practically stood for the old rules
with the amendments offered by Mr..
Fitzgerald. 1t was" he said. "a pro-
test by the conservative Democrats
against Populism and all kindred
things"
The election Of house officers pre-
ceded the action on the rules. with
plenty OF votes to spare. Joseph q.

speaker, receiving 204 votes as against
