with the debate limited to eight hours and
all possibility of amendment cut off.
The special rule providing for the pas
sage of the bill was brought in by Rep
resentative Dalzell. chairman of the rules
committee, Immediately after the railroad
bill had been sent to conference. The de-
bate on the rule was limited to one hour
but both sides occupied their full share
of it by heaving heavy verbal brickbats
at the other side. The vote at the con-
clusion was 16O to 1870, all but ten of the
"insurgent' republicans having voted
with their party for the adoption OF the
rule.
The ten insurgents who voted against
the rule were Carey Cooper, Nelson and
LenroOt of Wisconsin, Davis and Lind

Nebraska and Poindexter of Washington.
The rule which the democrats desig-
mated as gag rule provided for the

miserable errors. More teamwork Is

cues for one team in a game of ball in
