From the Kansas City Star.
A friend of the late Father Tabb said
in Ellieott City:
his fine poet and good man thought
that class hatred was due to ignorance
that the rich knew too little Of the poor.
and vice versa.
He once illustrated this ignorance with
the story of a Methodist bishops wife
who addressed a meeting of slum house
wives on their home duties. The address
made the home. life seem all very fine and
ideal, but one housewife voiced the opin-
ion OF the rest perhaps, when she said

Be MADE SPEAKER
Is Often Called to the Chair by
Mr.. Cannon.
THE AYE AND NAY VOTE
In the Conversational Record Is often
the Undoing of Absent Members.
Record of Representative
Wolf of Maryland.
by RoDERICk CLIFFORD.

Washington, February 5.-tSpecial)-1
pays TO have knowledge of parliamentary
law and to know how to apply it to the
rules OF the House. There is no better
example of this than in the person Of
Representative Marlin f. OlmBted of
Pennsylvania The Keystone statesman,
perhaps to a greater extent than any
other member of the House, is called
upon by Speaker Cannon to preside over
the committee of the whole when the
large supply bills are up for considera-
ton. This is an honor that any MEM
Der may coyet, and many of the older
members are just a little bit Jealous of
the favor shown Mr. Olmsted by Uncle
joe" whose successor he may be II
the republicans retain control OF the
next House.
Some years ago-Mr Olmsted is now
serving his seventh continuous term-the
Pennsylvania statesman drew up a priv
LEGGED resolution, but to put Ii in the
proper shape required several days of
study. He hunted up presidents, .delved
into the rules and after much labor found
what he wanted. He went into speakers
room with his resolutions and informed
Uncle joe that he would offer the res
olutions In the House the next day.
Before the House met next day the
speaker sent for Mr.. Olusted and asked
where he had studied parliamentary law
and where he obtained his presidents
for the resolution. II got it by study,
was the reply.
From that day Mr.. Olmsted was called
to the chair by the speaker and from
the first he proved Il success as presid-
ing officer. That he Is regarded as good
authority on the rules OF the House and
knows how to apply them Is proved by
the fact that he was placed in the chair
by the speaker during the long debate
on the tariff bill, the most important
measure enacted into the law by this
Congress.
Representative Olmsted comes from
district solidly republican. He has been
returned by his constituents every cleo
ton without opposition in his own party.
There Is no doubt about his renomina-
ton and election. and II the next House
is republican he will prove formidable
candidate for speaker.

The aye and nay vote printed in the
Congressional Record has been more than
once the undolng of a member. 1t Is the
record vote that gives the constituents
some idea of the attendance at the SEES
sions OF the House of his congressman
There would not be near so many alb
sentees IL the members could tell In ad-
vance when a vote was to De called. In
the last Congress the Third district Of
MARYLAND was represented by Congress
man H. B. Wolf, a democrat from Bal
tinore. Personally he was clever ana
obliglng TO his constituents, but he SUI
fered from the absentee fever. When
the campaign rolled around Wolf was re-
nominated. His opponent was John
Krenniller, republican. manufacturer,
who now looks after the interests of the
vo.ers of the Third district. In the cam
naian Mr. Krenmiller merely pulled
the record vote on Mr.. Wolf, saying 10
the people that if they sent him. Krenmii-
ler to Washington. they could depend
upon 1t that whenever vote was taken
he would be in his seat to answer to his
name; he would make a record for the
district to be proud of. He declared that
out of several hundred roll calls he would
not. like his opponent, Mr.. Wolf, have
credit of only answering 2s to his
name
MS appeal TO the record vote did the
,vorl, CONGRESSMAN Wolf was defeated
nv the narrow margin of little over
200 votes In a district normally demo-
era tic. Congressman Krenmiller lives in
Baltimore and goes back and forth from
Washington each day. When the House
is not in session he spends his time at his
factory. A few days ago, while at his
factory wearing his working clothes, q
constituent, who did not know him per-
sonallv. called to see him. The con-
stituent asked for the consressman.
tWell. what can do for your" was Mr..
Krenmillers greeting. II want TO soc

reulv. The constituent, much surprised,
said he did not expect TO see. working
man. 'Oh, / am a workingman. said
the congressman, Sin Washington, when
the House is in session | work for you
and my constituents, and when the House
is not in session / come to the factory
and work for myself"
This made an impression on the voter.
