CANNON DEFEATEN ON RULING
Democrat and Insurgents Combine
to Down the Speaker.
RALLY TO SUPPORT OF NEW RULE
Fitzgerald Insists on Consideration of
Motion to Discharge Committee
When Hull Moves for Com
mtttee OF whole.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1e-The stirring
scenes OF the last session of congress, when
the house overthrow Speaker Cannon and
took the making of its rules into its own
hands was re-enacted in part on the floor
of the house today.
Threatened with what they believed to be
an effort ito draw the teeth" of one of
the most important of the new rules, demo-
Gratis and insurgents Joined in the defeat Of
the speaker. BY a vote of 145 to 1876 the
combined forces rallied to the support OF
Representative Fitzgerald (dem. N. " and
sustained him in his appeal from the
speakers ruling.
The fight developed as the result of the
second attempt to use the new rule which
gives the house power to discharge a COM
mittee from further consideration of a bill
that has been referred to It. The insurg-
ents and the democrats believed this rule
ironcad, that as soon as the consideration
OF the bills by Unanimous consent had been
concluded, on every first and third Mon
day of the month. the house was bound by
the new rule to take up the motions to
discharge committees from the custody Of
the specified bills.
Hull starts Trouble.
When the moment arrived today, how
ever, Speaker Cannon gave recognition to
Representative Hull of Iowa chairman of
the military affairs committee. Mr.. Hun
moved that the house resolve itself into a
committee of the whole and take up the
consideration OF the military appropriation
bill upon which it had been working last
week. There was an immediate rallying OF
forces and stiffening of ranks amongst the
insurgents and democrats. MIR. Fitzgerald
insisted upon the consideration of a motion
TO discharge committee which was upon
the calendar.
Speaker Cannon declined to give Mr.. F1tz
gerald the preference, but said he would
be glad 10 consider a point OF order IL Mr.
Fitzgerald wanted to make one
The democratic member declared he did
not have TO make a point of order, that his
was the right to recognition under the new
rule, without the raising Of any point OF
order against the speakers action.

jumped into the free debate that followed

Sued for Fourteen Cents.

Hickman, KY, Aug. l. = Sheriff
Goalder Johnson has filed suit against
the Nashville, Chattanooga & st. Louis
Railway for IA cents. The suit was filed
in the Quarterly Court, but Judge w A.
Naylor oyerruled defendants demurrer
to the plea and allowed the case to be
transferred to the Circuit Court.
Mr.. Johnson claims he was unable to
get ticket at Union City and was
made to pay fare to Hickman at the
rate of four cents a mile. Nearly every
lawyer in the county, with the excep-
ton OF the railroads attorney, prof
iered his services to Mr. Johnson with
out charge. About thirty-two witnesses
were summoned for the plaintiff, and
among them we're men who had the
same experience as Mr.. johnson had,
and who will swear that the agent at
Union City did not open the ticket win
dow in time for them to purchase tick
cts, and that they had to pay the extra
one cent per mile by not having tickets.
The suit has already cost about 800
and the case is only started.

Obituary.

In memory of Francis Parnell Gar
rigan.
Just as the golden sun sank beneatl
the horizon on July Is the spirit Of thi
good and much loved young MAJ
crossed over the river OF death and i
now resting in the shade OF the tree
He leaves behind him a heartbroker
wife with two little babes, also loving
father and mother, six sisters and three
brothers, besides host Of other relatives
and friends; for all who knew Parnel
loved him. He was not only usefu
man, but he was good neighbor and
a good citizen. He will be greatly
missed by his neighbors and greater
still will be missed around his home anc
parental fireside, for there will be q
vacant place and an empty chair.
During his sickness he never refused
dose of medicine; never wanted to dc
anything that would not be for his good
His whole ambition and desire seemed
to be fixed upon getting well. Though
often he must have grown tired of his
bed, yet he bore his Affections with great
patience and never complained with his
lot. The terrible disease known as ty-
phoid fever preyed upon his body for
sixty-three days. All that human hands
could do was done, for loving wife and
father watched while death was coming.
The deceased was "a years, months
and II days old. He was united in
marriage to Miss Rosa Isbell January 4,
1909. He was member OF the Union
City Catholic Church Funeral services
we're conducted by Rev. Carman and
the remains were laid to rest in Salem
Cemetery with Modern Woodmen Of
America honors. How sad it makes us
to see this promising young man cut
down by death in the morning of life.
We know no words OF sympathy can
heal these broken hearts; no earthly
one can fill this vacant place. 1t will
take time, and time only to heal the
In these sad hours of sorrow
look to the Great Creator, who doeth all
things for the best, for he alone can
comfort you.
Dearest one. thou hast left us
And our loss we deeply feel
But tbs God who has bereft us,
He can all our sorrows heal
Yet again we hope to meet thee
when the days of life are fed
When in Heaven with joy to greet thee
Where no farewell tears are shed.
A FRIEND.

on the first Monday in August, the 9TH

Of importance to the Democrats of the

The Commercial is also authorized to
announce that mass meeting OF the
Obion County Democrats will be held
at the same time and place with the
committee, for the purpose and with
the end in view Of uniting the warning
factions Of the party. The meeting is
to be held for no other purpose than
the harmonizing of the Democratic fac
tons in the county, and every Demo-
crat who feels that he is willing 10 lay
aside party differences as far as they in
terfere with party organization and par
ty loyalty and meet half way those OF
the opposing faction is earnestly re-
quested and cordially invited to be
present. This invitation is not extend
ed to those Democrats who feel that
they cannot come together on these
terms.
There is feeling among the masses
TO clean out the augean stables and
start anew, not with Regulars" in
control nor with Fusionists" in con-
troll, but with party reha5ilitated from
both factions. The matter has been
discussed by numbers of Democrats,
and this sentiment is manifested out
spokenly and to large extent. The
idea is to do away with the past and
let bygones be doggones." There is
also spirit in this county that the
Democracy OF the State should be reor-
gained and that all the old bitter fac
sional leaders either lay aside factional
differences or be removed for new polit-
ical blood. The good OF the party de-
mands it and the good of the State
must have it.

~HE cool weather Of the past week
has created an exodus from the
Northern mountain resorts. Un-
expected arrivals at home are
coming every day, and houses which are
usually closed until the middle Of Oc-
tober are showing every indication of
early occupancy. Even the streets and
thoroughfares have had an awakening
and smart equipages and autos not seen
for many months have appeared again
as harbingers of the gay season.
MTs. Taft's absence from the White
House until the end of next month Of
course, will make considerable difference
in the social affairs of the circle of which
the White House is the pivot. She ex-
poets to go down to New York about
October 10 and spend a fortnight with
the Presidents brothers family, coming
on to Washington just about the time
the President returns from the West.
1t is too early to know much of debu-
tantes, but indications point to a very
interesting group this season. There are
several scheduled in the diplomatic
corps; as yet none in the Cabinet circle: a
large group in the army and navy cir
Gle, and no end of them in the resi-
dent set. The debutante in all her glory
Will not come upon the social scene until
December l.
Quite an important feature of the forth
coming season will be the introduction
of the new members of the diplomatic
circle, for there are four new Ambas-
sadors, a number of Ministers, and, as
is usual innumerable secretaries. One
of the four Ambassadors is a bachelor.

pretentious and spacious house of them

who has succeeded the late Senior Ma
buco He is now in Europe on a Vaca-

he Joined his family Immediately after

will return here with him next month.

metieff will arrive about November l.
Nine Bakhmeteff was formerly Miss
