No Part in the GLORY.

The congressman of Illinois have
lived up to the expectations of their
state. IN the wonderful work accom-
plished at Washington during the
three days following and including st.
Patrick's day, no Illinois congressman
was in the forefront of the battle. OF
these men Speaker Cannon has said
that he Is proud. Subsequently they
have done his will. accepted his dicta-
ton, and scorned the needs and wish
es of their constituents, all to keep
from offending the ex-czar. The great
middle west which furnished a large
part of the Taft majority and got cold
feet when the tariff bills were made
up has had much to do in the glorious
work Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Wis
consin, Minnesota, these states have
men with red blood in their veins who
flung aside the offerings of a mess of
pottage, cleaving rather to their birth
right to honestly represent their peo-
pie at home than the oligarchy of tar
iff beneficiaries and Office holders. The
pity of it,
The state of Lincoln, of Grant, of
Douglas, OF a host of others which,
since its organization nearly a century
since, has always had men who were
in the forefront of every battle for
the rights of the people has no part
in the glory. The only man mentioned
in the case whose home is in the great
state is Joe Cannon, and scorn at
taches to his name. Yet the congress
men of Illinois have done what is ex-
pected of them, and no one who has
followed their career closely during
past years expresses any surprise in
the matter.

The Real Majority.

Speaker Cannon says truly that
there is not a coherent republican
majority. and therefore new major
ity has been formed of the democrats
and a minority Of the republicans-he
calls it 15 per cent of them, but 1t is
almost 20 per cent. This majority is
vastly more representative of the SEN
1tment OF the country than the party
majority. The republicans have 219
members. A majority of this major
Hy is no. That is between a fourth
and a third Of the membership of the
House and has absolute power over
the house according to the caucus sys-
tenn, of which Cannon is the product
and the exponent.
g. The majority that beat Cannon on
shis ruling and has removed the COM
mittee on rules from his control is an
actual majority of all the members of
The house, and is the only majority

The steamer Tecumseh was moving
| along at ten knot gait OF Norfolk,
Va. when the lookout called:
BOAT ahead on the port bow"
With his glass the captain swept the
quarter of the ocean indicated and saw
cocklesheu skif pulled by a single
man. He was alone in the boat and
beyond sight of land.
Put her of three points to west
ward" said the captain to the helms
man.
The ship was steered In the direction
of the man in the boat, and as it drew
near him broad stripes revealed them
selves on the garments he wore.
Escaped jailbirdp' exclaimed the
captain in disgust at having to rescue
such a man.
A rope was lowered, and the convict
was pulled aboard He walked aft to
where the captain stood waiting for
him and said:
''You see by my garh. captain, that
I am an escaped prisoner. 1 broke
away last night, made my way to the
coast before morning, seized a boat
and pulled out where 1 hoped to be
picked up by a passing ship. / must
throw myself on your mercy not ito
put me back where I came from. If
you intend doing so 1 beg you rather
to toss me overheard. for I prefer to
die rather than return to that horrible
life"
Ma II g. Tod lan
captain, ''to assist a prisoner regular
~ convicted under the law to obtain
his freedom. You may work with the
crew while you are on board my ship,
but when we reach port III have to
turn you over to the authorities"
There was a look of agony in the
mans eyes as he turned away in COM
pany with the mate to take his place
among the crew. He was young-not
more than NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and
refined looking. He had eaten nothing
since the day before. Food was given
him; but, though he needed 1t, he had
not the heart to eat more than he abb
solutely required.
Bad weather set in that night from
the northeast, blowing a cold blast
The ship was riding obliquely across
the waves which dashed up against
her bows, now raising skyward and
now pointing toward the bottom.
1t was about midnight that, while
the stern was raised high in the air,
an enormous wave struck it with ter
rife force. There was sharp report,
and the helmsman found that the
wheel turned without assistance.
Something had happened to free the
rudder and render it useless. The ship
was at the mercy of the waves.
When the captain, who was on deck.
learned of the trouble he blanched.
He was not more than thirty miles
from the Virginia coast, and with a
northeast wind blowing his ship south
westward 1t would go ashore by day
light.
While this flashed into his mind the
vessel was turning and in a few mo-
ments was rolling in the trough OF the
sea. Orders were issued to get up such
sails as would be of service in steer
ing. With the help of these, though
the ship steadily lost ground, those
aboard of her gained time. Morning
came, and there was the shore like
faint cloud resting on the horizon. and
with a powerful glass white line
could be seen breaking against 1t.
Same steering gear must be rugged

Senator Cummins' four-day speech
against the administration railroad
bill puts him In the Marathon class

flibustering. and needed every minute
occupied by him to expose the trick

complete the record of protest against
the backward step in regulation pro-
posed by the bill.
