LENGTHY DEBATE BALKS
"MODEL SUNDAY" BILL
Renewed Opposition Developed at Yesterdays SeS-
sion May Defeat Johnston Bill in
Senate Today

Prolonged debate on the Johnston bill
providing for a model observance of Sun
day In the District yesterday served TO
cause another postponement, and the
measure went over for consideration this
afternoon.
The bill which prohibits secular labor
on the first day Of the week passed at
it's first reading yesterday, and a roll-call
vote developed only two votes In opposi-
ton. These were cast by Senator'S Hey
burn and Borah, Of Idaho.
Objections Were Varied.
In the discussion that consumed most of
the session many objections TO various
provisions led to several important amend
ments, and the opposition Of the two
Idaho solons reflected the sentiments ex-
pressed In numerous petitions protesting
against the measure that have been re-
ceived at this term.
It IS feared by certain Western Sen
ators that the bill might cause discrimina-
ton between the moral code Of different
men. and also make a religious test in
the District that might spread elsewhere.
Senator Dixon said study Of the bill
convinced him that It would probably
shut up the churches and put an end to
preaching in this city.
Other members who have been urged
by their constituencies to oppose the bill,

The hearing on the charges made by
Representative Hitchcock. OF Nebraska,
against Secretary of Interior Ballinger
and the general administration OF the
Land Office, was resumed before the
House Committee on Expenditures in the
Department of the Interior.

at yesterdays hearing which. in meas

for the sole purpose Of enabling him to

weeks after his arrival.

the bill would permit the sale Of cigars

who used TO be chairman OF the House
Committee on Banking and Currency,
until he fell out with Uncle Joe Cannon,
and was relieved OF the Job. made an In
surgent demonstration all BY himself yes

Without any preliminary warning at all.
he introduced a resolution TO Increase the
membership of the Rules Committee from
four TO nine, and to relieve the Speaker
of the House from any connection with
The Washington herald., 1910-01-27

Champ Clark, the minority leader, when
asked 10 express the attitude Of the Demo-
Gratis toward the resolution, said the prin-
cipal fault he had to find with It was that
it sighted the Democrats.
The membership Of the Committee on
Rules is now three Republicans TO two

advantage to be gained by his side in in
creasing this membership SO that there
would be six Republicans to three Demo

Stole Insurgents, Thunder.

Some OF the insurgents who were asked
about the proposition seemed inclined TO
the belief that Mr.. Fowler had tried to
steal their thunder. They have had some
thing Of the same sort on the fire for
some time.
Mr.. Fowler's resolution reads this way:
Resolved, That on the 7th day of Feb
ruary. 1910. after the morning hour. the
House shall proceed to the election Of
five additional members Of the Com
mittee on Rules. four OF whom shall be
Republicans and one a Democrat.
Resolved, That from and after the
passage OF this resolution. the Speaker
Of the House OF Representatives shall no
longer be a member OF the Committee on
Rules, but that the Committee on Rules
shall consist OF the four members here
tOfore appointed. and the five members
elected under the provisions Of this reso-
luton.
Resolved. That the said Committee on
Rules, Republicans and Democrats. shall
elect one their number as chairman"
Mr.. Fowler is sort Of lone outlaw.
He IS dead set against Speaker Cannon
and roasts him at every opportunity. Yet
he is not cOnsplcuously identified with the
organized insurgent movement, as are
Murdock Gardner, Hayes, Norris, and a
few others. But such Of the insurgents
as were seen yesterday afternoon follow
ing the Introduction Of the resolution by
Mr.. Fowler spoke heartily in its favor.
we were just going to do something
Ike that" said one Of them, that's what
We have had up our sleeves"
Representative Goebel, Of Ohio, made
the statement that within forty-eight
hours the Republicans Of the House would
find it necessary to hold a conference"
on this proposition, and that in his opin-
ion. after it had been talked over and
thrashed out, the main idea involved
would be approved by the organization.
There was something Of an attempt by
some members Of the House to make II
appear that President Taft favored this
Fowler resolution and would make this
fact known. The idea that the President
will actively interfere in any purely or
ganizafion matter of this sort is not
