Champ Clarks Tells Why Democrats s
Voted to Sustain Speaker.

Washington, Jan. IA statement
party in the House. as to the mean
ing Of the recent rules fight, setting
forth the precedent that would have
been set If the Democrats had voted
to overrule Speaker Cannon at that
time. was issued to-day by Represent
tative Champ Clark, the Democratic
leader Of the House and probable
Speaker Of the next Congress. The
statement follows:
at is Revolutionary.
'Thcre Is tempest in teapot
about how the Democrats voted on
Monday, on the question of sustain
ing Speaker Cannon's ruling. Some
Of the papers have been charging g
that the Democrats reversed their ac-
ton Of the 10Th Of March, 1910.
This is an entire mistake. Every
Democrat who made speeches on the
proposition pending on the l7th. 18th
and 18th Of March, 1910, took pains
w
favor Of the Speakers ruling on that
occasion, and what we were then do
ing was revolutionary in its charac-
ter. ] used this language on that oc-
matters about it. 1t is revolutionary.
''Thc difference in the situation is
that in March, 1910. we were fight
ing to accomplish a great result
namely, to liberate the House from
the domination Of an oligarchy OF
five, OF which the Speaker was one.
The despotiSln OF that old committee
on rules had become intolerable and
we were entirely justified in upsctting
all the prcccdents that were ever
made to emancipate ourselves.
''The question last Monday was an
insignificant sQuabble between Judge
Fuller, of Illinois, and Hon. James r.
Mann, of Illinois. both Republicans.
neither an inSurgent. each determine
ed to have his own way. Each had
a bill that he wanted to get up. and
that is all there was to it. There
was no principle involved whatever
"rhcrc is no inconsistency what
ever in our votes in March, 1910, and
last Monday. If the Democrats had
overruled the Speaker by their votes,
thus creating precedent, then in the
62d Congress the Republicans could
use this precedent to arise each day
with various amendments to the
ri les and by this conduct prevent any
islatiOn OF any charactcr."

Almost a decade ago Helen a.

ton penniless. While working in
the store OF NJ. Yamataro there she
met lnomata. The Japanese loved
her and his gentle ways won Miss
Hunt. They were married and went
to New Orleans.
The girl fell i'll and T1omata work
ed night and day to make enough
money TO pay doctors bills and hos
pital fees. His own health became
undermined and he became desmond
cnt. Some months ago, while Ino-
mata and his wife were in Jackson,
Miss, on busines she met Gibson.
he, too, having come to America. On
sight Of him the girl declared she
still loved him and Gibson sworc that
he @'.d loved her always.
After days Of silent anguish, Mrs.
lno'n1t ia confessed to her husband
thai ~he loved Gibson. The japanese
listened with stoical silence to the
story and abruptly left his wife to
think it over. On his return to their
boarding house in New Orleans, Ino-
mata said to his wife:
Il am falling in health. You go to
Jackson, bring suit for divorce and |
Will not oppose it. I will say moth
ing. Then go and marry this Eng
lishman YOU love"
The girl followed his advice. On
December ), accompanied by the man
who had been her husband, and the
man who had been her by-gone
sweetheart, the woman came TO
Nlcksburg. Here she and Gibson
were married.
That night momata. the Rusliin

SUGAR COSTS US MILLIONS.
Americans Consume More Sugar An
nually than Any Other Nation.

the quantity OF sugar produced in the
United States and add to this the
quantity brought from our own is,
lands and the quantity imported from
foreign countries, and subtract there
from the amount exported, we get u
grand total OF considerably more than
seven billion pounds consumed in the
country; and by dividing the popu-
lation into this grand total, we get
an average OF s " pounds per cap
ita, speaking in round terms, for
1910, and about like quantity for
l9o9. 1t Is not assumed, of course,
that each person necessarily con-
sumes sugar equal to one-halt his
individual weight; bat taking the
total consumption and comparing it
with the total population in the sec
tion known as continental United
States, the average yearly consump-
tion OF sugar is found to be about
81 e pounds per capita.
