WASHINGTON, D C., Nov. 10.
1t is not certain that Champ
Clark will be the new speaker. If
he sticks to his program of last
year and consents to taking away
from the speaker the power of ap-
pointing committees he undoubt-
eddy will be elected.
But there are reason to believe
that the coterie of standpat demo-
Gratis close to Clark, led by Under
wood of Alabama and Fitzgerald
of New York, are urging the keep
ing of all the power that Cannon
has had and using it for partisan
advantage. If Clark listens to
this advice he will find within his
own party revolt against Clark
ism greater and more powerful
than any republican revolt against
.Cannonism.
Progressives VIII Fight.
At least "a progressive demo-
Gratis from southern states will
fight to the last to redeem the i'm
piled promises of the party to de-
stroy the autocratie power of the
speaker. Most of these men are
strong friends of Champ Clark and
will vote for him, but only on con-
dition that he takes advanced pro-
gressive ground.
Hay of Virginia. Henry of Texas
and Sims of Tennessee will be
leaders in this new democratic in
Isurgency.
Some of the most progressive
and radical democrats in the house
such as Ollie James of Kentucky
and Henry T. Rainey of Illinois
are not included in this list of real
|progressives, because they are so
close to Champ Clark that they
may be swayed by eprsonal consid-
erations, although they will be
progressive on matters of legisla-
ton.
What is called Insurgency" In
the north captured the democratic
party in most of the southern
states in 1890 through the agency
of the farmers alliance. Texas,

NEWSIES SURE HAD One
GREAT BIG CELEBRATION

II the newsies make a mistake
in your change otday it is because
they were out to the annual ball
last night and "dere blinks is on
de bum."
1t was great night for it was
almost all night. The Dreamland
rink was full of newsies and their
friends and from the time Mayor
Fawcett led the grand march un-
til the last dance was over every
body was in for big time.
Little Patsy O'Brien was on
hand as the guest of honor. He
had a cheesecloth bandage around
his head yet and was not able to
dance but he looked on all night
and figured out how much he was
going to get as percentage on
the gate.

NORTH END CAVE
SMALL v0TEFOR.
SUFFRAGE

The smallest vote given in fav-
ar of women suffrage in any pre-
cinct In the city was in the North
End. We can expect no help in
reforms from the rich and prom
tnent' classes. From the labor
Ing classes and the middle classes
will come the support that will
advance those principles for
which we are working"
Such was the statement of Mrs.
8. A. Shorthill at the jubilee
meeting of the Seventh ward w.
C. r. U. held in Epworth church
yesterday afternoon to celebrate
the victory for woman suffrage.
Other women present took up
the theme and discussion was
lively. Mrs. ANGELA Burdick
threw some side lights on the sit
nation declaring that already a
class of political women" is
forming who will be a stumbling
block to reform generally but who
worked for woman suffrage. She
emphasized the fact that many of
the leaders in the suffrage cam
paign who are prominent in So
ciety cannot be relied upon for
any work on the temperance and
other problems that the w. c. T.
u. is advocating.
Mrs. L. NJ. Fisher and several
others gave pointed talks and
Mrs. Mary Joslyn entertained
with readings.

submitted plan for laying a 10

front for fire protection, rein
forced by pair of centrifugal

The main may be adopted lat

will be plenty of pressure.
