Term Expired Thursday, VIII
Remain In Washington,

Republican leaders Of the House are be-
ginning to admit that the insurgent
movement against the rules governing
the conduct OF business in the lower
branch Of Congress Is more serious than
they believed
In fact, It is known that Speaker Can
non and the other leaders are much
concerned over the state OF disorganiza-
ton that exists In the House member
ship to-day.
The insurgents against the rules are
standing pat. determined 10 fight 10 the

the cooperation OF the Democrats. The
Republicans received a rude shock on
the day Of adjournment when Champ
Clark. the minority leader. refused 10 Of

the Speaker for his uniform courtesy in
administering the rules"
This indicates to the mind OF the in
surgents they can depend on the Demo-
Gratis 70 stand hitched when the ques-
ton comes later in the month Of adopt
ing rules for the new House.
As 10 the Speakership, no doubt is ex-
pressed in any quarter that Mr.. Cannon
will be reelected. But there is a sug-
gestion that Mr.. Cannon might refuse
10 remain in the chair II substantial
changes in the rules were forced on the
House In the face of his opposition.
James E. Watson. Of Indiana, whose
term as a member Of Congress expired
or March 4. will remain In Washington

worthy of the great name, and only once can they be said to enter into his tory. It is related by travellers of the Munchalsen order, it may be, that savage chieftains in the interior of Af- rica admire no portion of European dress so much as pair of detachable cuffs, and that at many a native town the possession of cuffs has been held to be a greater honor than string of enc mics teeth With this exception the shirt cuff has never been a sign of dis tinction like the collar; that has been reserved for the coat cuff, which in mill itary, naval and diplomatic uniforms is heavily ornamented with gold braid, and is far more distinctive than the collar The shirt cuff has been dis gracefully neglected by the authorities, who have lavished everything on it's el- der brother. the coat cuff, and left 1t to private enterprise to give it its due place in the world of dress. But whe- ther it be lace ruftles or starched band, Captain Cuff may be a little out of date at the present time, but at a full-dress parade he must be always to the fore.
