Gag Rule Alleged
To Have Prevented
Favorable Action

Gag rule" discussions prevented the
Columbia Heights Citizens from FORM
ally indorsing the fight FOR universal
transfers, last night, but members OF
this association, speaking individually
and among themselves at the meeting,
were found to be practically unanimous
in favorIng a reciprocal system among
the traction companies of the city.
The members of the association are
anxious to discuss the universal transfer
prominent men stated the question will
be brought I'D at their next meeting
In the parish hall of St Stephens
Church peace and quiet relgned, while
half a hundred residents of the north
west section of the city smoked cigars,
and talked In undertones about the
weather and other pleasant things. A
moment later a gavel fell on the table
of the presiding officer, and the Colum-
bia Heights Citizens Association be-
gan its monthly meeting. Then the
dove of peace few out of the window.
Began To Warm Up.
Things began to warm up when Judge
Charles S. Bundy, president of the as
ISOLATION, announced from the platform
the adoption Of gag rule by the
executive committee. The Judge ex-
planned that in the past one or two
members of the association had fire.
quently monopolized the entire even
ing with their soaring flights of rhet-
oric anent anything and everything.
and that the other members of the as
sociation had been bored by the long
winded speeches. Therefore, the Judge
presented a proposition that all speeches
be limited to five minutes, unless unanl-
nous consent for more time is given.
Col Charles c. Lancaster, who has
done much to make the proceedings OF
more than one citizens association inter-
esting. not to say lively. was on his
feet in a minute. He objected to the
adoption Of the gag rule, on the ground
that II was a high-handed attempt Of
the executive committee to change the
bylaws.
