Unanimous Consent.
from The Tribune Bureau

gave the House, and incidentally the cOun-
try. an object lesson this afternoon IN sup
port of the statement he has frequently
made, that the lower body rules itself and
is not under the domination Of Gar.
question came up which was OF vast
Importance 70 every Representative seek
ing local legislation, and Mr. Cannon placed
it before the House for decision. instead Of
making mis- own ruling. The question in
brief was: II bill is being considered by
unanimous consent and Is threatened with
objection because the prepayment OF the
measure has not sufficient information as
20 the merits OF the bill at his disposal can
the proponent ask 10 have the bill passed
over without prejudice and thus secure the
retention OF the measure on the unanimous
consent calendar
Such a case was presented by Representa-
tive McLachIan. of California He asked
unanimous consent that a bill OF his De
passed over without prejudice, and Repre-
sentative Gaines, Of West virginia, oolecr-
ed on the ground that If such precedent
were established, the unanimous consent
calendar would become hopeIessIy congested
Speaker Cannon then announced his 20
sition. There is great agitation in the
and newspapers, wherein it was charged
that members had to sacrifice their dignity
and crawl on their knees in the dust 10 Sc
cure recognition for unanimous consent In
its wisdom the House made Wednesday cal
endar day and made the unanimous consent
calendar 10 get away from asking the
Speaker not to run over the dignity Of the
member or impose upon the House by eXer-
cising his discretion to whether he would
submit a matter for unanimous consent
Now, then, at the beginning OF the oper-
alton Of this rule. when this bill Is called.
before objection is made the gentleman aP-
ueals for recognition TO the Speaker 70 sub
NIT by unanimous consent that this bill have
another chance"
The Speaker then submitted the question
to the House. A vigorous debate followed
in which party lines were rent asunder- \
roIIcau showed las votes IN favor Of re-
fIIsing Representative McLachlan's request
and 142 in favor Of granting IT.

some merely require amendment. while
others must be recast altogether. The coal

mentally sound in principle, but need some
