eating committee, and that the Demo-
Gratis We're taking advantage of the
opportunity to put two of their most
active partisans on the committee for
the purpose of making political capr
ital out of the affair
Mr.. Hayes was the first of the in
surgents to reach the White House.
He told the President that while he
was an "insurgent,'' he did not intend
to be placed in the position of helping
the Democrats to throw mud at q Re
publican administration" This he was
afraid was going to happen unless
some means of changing the Demo-

committee could be devised.
Messrs. James, of Kentuck, and Raj

Democratic caucus for appointment
under the action of the incurgent- DEM
ocratic combination which took the
power of appointing the committee
away from the Speaker.
Hardly had Mr.. Hayes left the ex-
eoutive offices when Murdoch and Gard
ner walked in arm in arm. They re
iterated much that Mr.. Hayes had said,
but admitted that they did not see ex-
actly how they We're going to get out
