REPUBLICANS TROUBLE AHEAD.

How much better is a sure.
neat, working" majority than
a loose, sprawling, overgrown
majority, factious and fractions!
The Republicans have a bigger
one than they can always manage
in the present House. In the
next it is so large that declara-
tons of independence and mutt
MES are likely to be frequent.
Already the STRINGS of revolt
are heard. Mr.. GILLETT OF
Massachusetts was elected Spea-
ker over Mr.. MANN Of Illinois by
a combination in which reform
had some part, and political ex-
pediency, reaction and the inter-
position of such eminent reform
ers as Senator PENRosE and
Senator Lodge had one much
larger. Under the lead of Mr..
Longworth of Ohio some of the
younger members tried to change
the seniority rule in the appoint
ment of committees. After the
Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania
delegations had anchored them
selves to Mr.. Gillett and his
nomination in the Republican
caucus was certain. Mr.. Gillett's
friends took pains to disclaim
any interest in the abolition OF
the seniority rule. The old
methods prevailed. Defeating

undesirable for various reasons,
the old stagers kept their hands
on the House and did business
at the old stand in the old way.
Mr.. Gillett has been a speaker
of the old type. His refusal to
see with a recognizing eye Mr..
Igeo of Missouri, who had a
resolution for the investigation
by the Federal Trade Commission
of the high price of food, is a
case in point. Former Speaker
Clark, likewise invisible to the
gentleman from Massachusetts,
called his whole ruling an out
rage. On the day when thirty
Republicans deserted their party
on what was meant to be a strict
party vote on the resolution re-
questing Secretary Baker to sell
army goods to the public immed-
lately, Mr.. Gillett's rulings were
growled at by many Republicans.
The Bonus bill was driven
through the House, against the
votes of forty Republicans, by
the same arbitrary process.
The oldest member by service
in the House but two, MIR.
Gillett has shown certain I'M
expected gift for mistakes. Prob
ably he is the only Speaker who
has ever censored the prayers of
the Chaplain.
Now Rumor is wagging her
tongue about the Speakership.
In the first place, Massachusetts
has too many of the good things.
The next Vice. President is of
Northampton. The leader OF
the Senate and Chairman of its
Foreign Affairs Committee is OF
Nahant. If the rule of seniority
continues, the next Chairman OF
the important House Committee
of Interstate and Foreign Com
merce is Mr.. Winslow of Wor-
cester, and so on. Besides, the
next House will be full of Wes-
teners, who love insurgency and
change. What must the we'll be-
loved Uncle Joe Cannon think
of the theory and proposal that
no speaker should have more
than one term. be more
than a biennial ear? The
old fight against seniority is to be
resumed. What do Mr.. Penrose
and Mr.. Lodge and their au'
thoritarin compeers think OF
these lax and regrettable notions
Is the next House to be
allowed to elect its owr
Speaker? The present one
wasn't. Shall So edifying ar
example not be followed? AS
for the seniority rule, that il
vital to the veteran bosses
Young blood, new and striking
ability, mustn't be encouraged
Time and the machine order
things better.
Some counselors of perfection
propose that Theodore E. Burton
of Ohio, elected to the Sixty
seventh Congress by a majority
: almost too big to count, be the
next speaker. Mr.. Burton has
served sixteen years in the
house and one term in the Senate
His knowledge of PUBLIC business
is varied and vast. The Republi'
cans could hardly find a fittel
man for Speaker. He has a fine
presence, if that is necessary tc
the Speaker, and an ample know
. ledge of parliamentary law
Possibly his merits disqualify
him. At any rate, when the stud
of wild colts breaks loose at
Washington the Republican
trainers and riding masters
had better get out of the way.

This Medicine Recommended by a Doctor

When a doctor uses a medicine him
self besides prescribing It to his patients,
he must know that It has merit.
This Is what DR.. ]. II. Wagner, a prom
inent physician OF Skate. kentucky, has
to say about DR.. Hartman's well-known
remedy, PE-RU-NA: IL have used Pc
RU-NA myself for catarrh and have
given II to others for catarrh, bloating
after eating and other ailments. 1t has
proved success in all cases with old
and young men and women. All speak
we'll Of PE-Ru-NA. 1t is the best OF all
tonics."
DR.. Wagner, out OF the fullness Of his
own personal experience, for the good Of
all sick and suffering, recommends a
medicine which he knows to be good.
You may be sure doctor would not en-
danger his professional reputation by
endorsing PE-RU-NA unless satisfied be-
yond doubt Of its value.
Whether your trouble be cough or q
cold, or a more subtle catarrhal effection
