NEW LEADERS IN
j. s. CONGRESS
Smith, of Georgia, One of the
Senate Dictators- Palmer
House Caucus Leader.

WASHINGTON, March 3-With the
inauguration of Wilson and Marshall
and the meeting of congress in ex-
traordinary session practically an en-
tirely new group of men rises to power
in the American republic.
The senate will be transformed from
q Republican into a Democratic body
with the progressive Democrats-the
men friendly to the new president-in
control. Kern Of Indiana, Smith Of
Georgia, Gore of Oklahoma, and Lea Of
Tennessee are the more prominent of
the progressive Democrats who will
take over the leadership of, the major
ity from Martin of Virginia, Simmons
of North Carolina, and their fellow
conservatives.
In the house Of representatives A.
rise to special prominence as chairman
Of the Democratic caucus, selected at
the request of President Wilson.
Clark will remain speaker and Under
wood majority leader, but they will be
compelled to defer, for a time at least,
to Palmer, Henry of Texas and other
recognized progressives as the spokes-
men of the new chief magistrate.
Speculation on Peace.
Whether President Wilson and con-
gress will be able to get along AMIGA
bly, is the question on which the poll
ticians of all parties are specializing on
the eve of the Inauguration. 1t is Civ
ing concern TO Wilson, to the men he
has invited to sit in his cabinet and
to the leaders in the senate and house.
All realize that the relationship of
the capitol and the White House will
have a good deal to do with shaping
the political history of the next four
years.
There viii be plenty of harmony at
the start; there always is. But it is
the finish on which the politicians have
their eyes fixed.
The Republicans in congress are con-
fident that the Democrats in executive
and legislative branches OF the govern
ment will be at loggerheads before the
new administration is three months old,
and that on this rock the Democratic
administration will go to smash On
that contingency, the Republicans pin
their hopes of returning to power
Situation Has Pitfalls.
That the situation has its pitfalls is
admitted by the Democrats, progressive
as well as conservative. The house is
the weak spot. There will be s91
Democrats in the next house and IA
Republicans and Progressives. That
will give the Democrats majority Of
14T. which experience has demonstrated
is about 100 more than it is good for
any party to have in that popular as
semblage.
How that tremendous majority can
be kept together instead OF splitting up
and Joining the Republicans, the Pro-
gressives or both is the problem bother
ing the heads of the leaders.
