of Nebraska, requiring a reorganiza
tion of the rules committee. increas-
ing its membership from five to ten.
and declaring the speaker ineligible
to membership thereon.
BY the curiously identical vote of
191 to 155-but with decidedly diff
ferent personnel of alignment-the
house defeated a resolution of Repre-.
sentative Burleson OF Texas. declaring
the speakership vacant and ordering
the immediate election of a successor
to. Mr.. Cannon.
The Norris resolution was as fol.
lows: There shall be committee on
rules. elected by the house (hitherto
the committee of five, like all other
house committees. has been appoint
ed by the speakerl, consisting of ten
members. six of whom shall be mem
bers of the majority party The
speaker shall not be member of the
committee. and the committee shall
elect its own chairman from Its own
members. Resolved. further. that
within ten days after the adoption Of
this resolution. there shall be an cleo
ton of this committee. and mme-
diately upon its election. the present
committee on rules shall be dis
solved"
1t was upon the adoption of this
resolution that one OF the greatest
contests in the history of the house
was waged. The regular Republicans
were opposed to the adoption OF the
resolution. which means the practical
dethroning OF the speaker. while the
'insurgent' Republicans joined with
the Democrats and succeeded. after q
bitter and prolonged fight. in securing
votes enough to pass the resolution.
When the tumult had partially sub
sided after the vote on the Norri:
resolution had been taken, Speaker
Cannon gained the attention of ths
members and made an address IL
which he declared: There are twt
courses open for the speaker to pur
sue: One is to resign and permit tht
new combination of Democrats AM
insurgents to choose speaker il
harmony with its acts and purposes
The other is for that combination [,
declare vacancy in the office o
speaker and proceed to the election o
a new speaker"
The speaker declared that to volun
tarily resign would be confession o
weakness or mistake and an apolog
for past actions. and as he was no
conscious of wrong doing, had cor
strued the rules as he found them
and as they had been construed b
previous speakers, he would not re
sign.
The vote on the motion to declar
the speakership vacant showed tina
there was no desire upon the part c
the majority to change speakers. bu
simply TO eliminate the speaker froI
the committee on rules.
