No Reference to Tariff.
Except in the opening speech of Rep
resentative Henry D. Clayton, who turned
over the caucus Craftsmanship to MIR.
Hay after he, Clayton. had held it for
number of years, there was no ref
erence to the tariff question during the
five hours the caucus continued.
Under i resolution introduced by
Representative Henry. which a few
of the insurreCtOS called gag rule
the caucus was limited to the selec-
ton of a Speaker. the naming of a
WAYS and Means Committee and a
decision as to the manner of the Sc
lection of the standing committees of
the House.
In his opening address. however. Mr.
Clayton declared that the Democrats
soon proposed to reduce the tariff to
a revenue basis, and, incidentally, he
declared that he took no stock IN Il
tariff commission.
Mr.. Clayton warned his fellow
Democrats that the party must keep
platform and campaign pledges If it
would remain in power, and he cited
the downfall of the Republicans as
an illustration of what might befall
betrayal of these promises.
Take Lesson From Republicans.
Let us adjure you to learn a les
son of profit from the mistakes made
by our opponents. They passed an in
defensible tariff measure and have re-
fused to revise II downward as prom
ised. We have promised to reform
the tariff by lowering it to a revenue
basis. We must and will endeavor to
keep that promise. Let us declare
as Democrats and forever maintain
that the Government has no right to
exact even so much as one dollar
from the citizen under the guise of
a tariff law except for the support
of the Government"

Mr.. Nye was forty years old, and had

They said that they did not know that
there was a conference to be held, and,
therefore, did noN go.
When the caucus got down to pusi-
ness last night, however. II was ex-
pectcd In some quarters that Thayer
and his followers would get into ac-
ton. They might have at least held
the floor for a while and made out
that they had big strength in reserve.
But they did not. They quietly ac-
quiesced in all that was done.
When seen Mr.. Thayer said that his
views had been somewhat modified since
he came to Washington. He said that
wherever he had gone he had been told
by those who should know that Champ
Clark was fine fellow, that he knew
what to do, and that he should be fol.
ion, said Mr.. Thayer, impressed him
as II did the other new men who fear
ed that their chances of committee
assignments were in danger.
Mr.. Thayer said that he felt reason
ably sure that under the regime au-
thorized last night the new members
would get all Nthat was coming to them.
With this explanation the insurgent
movement rested.
Maryland Members Active.
Two Maryland members figured prom
inently in the caucus last night. Rep
resentative J. Harry Covington, OF the
First MARYLAND district, introduced d
resolution providing that all STANDING
committees should be increased In size
to twenty-One members. He ably SUD-
ported his measure in a speech in which
he showed that with the greatly in
creasing work before the more import
ant committees 1t would be better 10
have the House more generally repre-
sented on them.
This he said would relieve the SUBJ
committees to a large measure. The
Covington resolution was adopted with
out serious opposition.
