The time mas arrived when booms
for the office OF speaker of the next
house are being promoted among the

Mr.. cannon has not said he would
cut the game. not by a long shot. but
the general opinion Is that he viii be
forced to %rclinquish the s~pcakcrship.
The votes to re-elect him speaker, if
the republicans carry the house, can
not be counted, This is well under

office are allowing them to grow.
OF course, everyone recognizes that
there is a possibility that the demo-
Gratis may control the next house and
the republicans be put in the posi-
ton OF being in the minority. But this
does not prevent gentlemen from haN-
ing aspirations and carefully and con
