Springfield, Ill. Feb. 21.-Standing
committees Of the house will be ap-
pointed by the speaker as in past
years. This was decided by the house
yesterday. by a vote Of ~ to SO. after
one Of the most bitter fights in the
history OF the Illinois legislature. The
refusal OF the house TO adopt the com
mittee on committees system was a
defeat for Governor Dunno, who, with
the aid OF Speaker Mckinley, lined
up every possible vote in It's support
Twenty-six democrats. led by Lee
O'Neil Browne and John J. McL.augh-

one progressive TO defeat the admin

MAKE DEMOCRATS RESPONSIBLE.
Mr.. shanahan gave the chief reason
for the vote OF the republicans
The question here is not whether
there shall be a committee on COM
mittees. but which faction OF the dem
ocrats shall control it," he said. THE
democrats say 70 the republicans that
we must decide which faction con-
trolls. We republicans don't intend TO
wash the linen Of the democracy.
I'VE don't intend that the speaker
shall Rhift the responsibility from
himself to any committee OF fifteen or
eighteen, so that each member Of the
committee may in turn evade respon.

downward flight helped rather than
retarded the process. Indeed, the rush
