Washington, February 19.-(Special. J. 'It does not always pay for congress-
 man to be too active in promoting i'm provements around the capitol building"
 said an old employe of the House while in a reminiscent mood. ''The first ele-
 vator placed in the, House wing of the capitol" continued he, was the result of the efforts of Congressman Robert Klotz of Pennsylvania, a democrat and a veteran of the Mexican and civil wars. It was in the filth Congress that he se- cured the adoption of an amendment to
 the sundry civil appropriation bill au- thorizing the construction of anoeleyator for the House to be placed in the south east corner of the House wing.
 "The House recognized the need of an elevator: 1t was in line with progress, and it proved most useful, but political enemies circulated the story all over MT. Klotz's district that he lacked energy to walk up and down stairs. with the result that he was defeated at the next elec- tion. being succeeded by republican, Louis E. Atkinson. MT. Atkinson served four years. and recently died at his home in Pennsylvania.
 "Leonard B. Cook was appointed the first elevator conductor and he has held the position continuously.
 "One of the charges made against Con gressman John Wesley Gaines of Ten-
 
 him for renomination. was that he voted for the House subway so that he could
 walk to the House office building without getting his feet wet"
 It is not probable that the House will again this season devote any time to the Henry resolution to amend the constitu- tion of the United States to provide for a change In the date of Inauguration Tron, March { to the last Thursday in April, thereby extending the term of President Taft and Vice President sher- man. Of course the Henry resolution would also extend the term of representa- : lives and senators in the next Congress. which would also be effected by the amendment. There is concensus of opinion among the members that there should be a change in the date of the meeting of new Congress. bat to bring this about the law makers seem unable to agree on a plan.
 It was shown in the debate on the Henry resolution that there Is little pos sibliity of solving the problem at this

session, or in the near future. Members
 who have looked into the subject. say
 that the Congress elected by the people
 in November should not wait 13 months
 before meeting, as Is now the law, un-
 less called in extra session by the Pres
 ident, but ought to meet within month
 or two after the election, when the is-
 sues decided by the people can be acted
 upon. As 1t Is now the Congress that
 may be repudiated by the people in No-
 vember have four months in which to leg
 islate and do the very things against
 which the people have protested. Repre-
 sentative Henry of Texas is still hopeful
 that the present Congress will take some
 decided action on the subject.
 "The rules of the House will never be
 amended until amended right said
 Representative Victor Murdock of Kan
 sas, one of the leading insurgents of the
 House. We believe-I mean the insur-
 gents--that a number of the regulars who
 have reluctantly admitted we are right
 in our contention that the House should
 be the master, not the speaker, as has
 been the case for many years. recog- nize the force of party organization and
 that the party in control must answer to
 the people. but I also recognize that the majority of the House should have the right to say what legislation 1t will con- slider and not the speaker, who performs that function under the existing rules. The appointment of committees, be- lieve, can be satisfactory and more equit- ably performed By committee on com mittees, elected by party caucus, than by the present rule. Such action would add to the independence of the individual member. and yet not destroy party or ganlxation. But above all other things would have a rule that required the speaker to submit to the House a mo- ton, made by any member. to discharge committee from the further consider ation of any bill that had been under consideration by a committee for req sonable length of time without reporting the same. and submit that question to the House.
 "In other words, a bill of national im- portance may be introduced in the House and referred to a committee. The speak CT, for personal reasons, may be opposed to the measure. as may be the chairman of the committee having jurisdiction over
 1t. Under existing conditions there is no
The Birmingham age-herald., 1910-02-20

method by which the bill could be brought before the House. If a mem- Der should arise in his seat and address the speaker and state that he desired to move that the committee be discharged from further consideration of such and such bill and that the measure be laid before the House, the speaker blocks the proposition at once by saying, The chair can not recognize the gentleman for that purpose This is the power the speaker exercises, and makes that officer the boss and practically the whole House itself We are fighting for this rule, and we will get 1t yet. There is no denying that it is the key to the situation"
 Since Representative Bell of Georgia gave out an interview naming Repre- sentative Champ Clark of Missouri mi- nority leader, as the most accepta ble democrat for the presidential nomination in 1912, the mail of the Missouri states man has trebled. He receives letters from every section of the country, many indorsing the sentiments expressed by the Georgia congressman and pledging sup port in the next democratic national con- vention.

green trunks and limbs, which they de- posit near their houses every autumn They feed on the green bark during the winter. The beaver house is usually about eight feet across and stands al the upper end of the pond made by the beaver dam. These houses are generally made of sticks and mud and the living room is gnaWed out of the pile after It has assumed sufficient proportions.
 The entrance is below water level and just before the first freeze the cunning animals plaster the outside of the house with mud, which becomes solid and makes 1t impossible for wolves to dig into the living room.
 The dams which are built by the beav- CTS and can be seen on any western stream are generally made of the logs of trees interlaced with branches. Most of the dams are short and broad and anord easy passageway across the average stream It is on record that the beavers once attempted to dam the Missouri near Helena, but had to give up after repeat ed trials. MT. Mills says he has meas ured a dam on the South Platte which was HOO feet in length.
 The trees at the edge of the river are felled, and invariably they fall into the stream 1n e4aCtly tuc iiBht pocAeASi.. A'S civil engineer could plan his work better than the beavers Other trees are felled and rolled to the river and are then float ed to the dam by the patient beaver. small beaver colony will build a dam in remarkably short time.
 Sometimes when cloudburst destroys a dam 1t will be rebuilt without delay. Repairs are kept up and some of the old beaver work on the streams in the Rocky mountains have been worked over for centuries.
 The beaver is by nature nomad. He will build an elaborate system of works. and then for no apparent reason move to another locality
 Having obtained immunity from his an- cient foe, the trapper, MT. Beaver Is now confronted by new enemy, the western ranchman. The farmer has no use for an animal that occasionally causes floods in the bottom lands and that considers every broad-leaved tree his special prop erty. The beaver will not touch the pine, but will go for many rods to cut down cottonwood or quaking ash.
 MT. Mills and other beaver enthusiasts are working for the protection of the beaver in the national forests and for the setting aside of Estes Park and other beaver haunts as national parks. If this Is done the beaver promises to afford amusement and instruction for nature students for many generations to como.
