Mr. Carlisle and His Associates Issue an Address to the Country. THE SITUATION IN THE HOUSE AS DESCRIBED BY THE DEMOCRATIC MEMBERS—THEY EXPLAIN WHY THEY PROTESTED—MR, BEED'S COURSE AS SPEAKER CRITICISED—A HOUSE WITHOUT RULES. The democrats of the House have issued a statement to the country, prepared by Mr. Car- lisle, setting forth their view of the situation in the House. It says: “The House met on the sec- ond day of December, 1889, and immediately or- ganized by the election of a Speaker and other officers, On the same day, by a resolution of the House, the Speaker was authorized to ap- point a committee on rules, and the rules of | the last preceditig House were referred to that committee. The committee, consisting of the Speaker himself and four other members was appointed on the fifth day of December, and on the 9th it made a report authorizing the Speaker to appoint all the other committees aaa defining heir jurisdiction. The committee on elections, to which was referred all cases in~ volving the rights of members to their seats, was appointed on the ninth day of December. Although nearly two months have elapsed since the committee on rules was appointed, it has made no report upon the matters referred to it, except the partial one made on the 9th of December, and consequently the House has been compelled to conduct its business without any rule or system, except the general parli- mentary law, as construed by the Speaker. There have been no calendars, no order of business, no fixed time to receive rey from committees or for the consideration of bills or resolutions, and, in fact, no regular methods whatever in the proceedings of the House, LIKE 4 POPULAR MEETING, ‘The American House of Representatives has been during all this time, and still is, so far as rules for its government are concerned, in pre- cisely the same condition as a popular meeting or @ political convention, in which the chair- man and his partisans absolutely contro! all the proceedings. No measure can get before ive floure far tomsideration olear tir Speaker chooses to allow it to be presented, and mem- bers have no means of knowing in advance what they are to be called upon to discuss or decide. This is the first time in our history that a leg- islative assembly,or even @ public meeting, has attempted to transact business for any con- siderable period without a regular code of rules prescribing the order of its proceedings, and the inconvenience and injustice resulting from such an attempt have been forcibly illus- trated in the present instance. The Speaker has repeatedly during these ex- traordinary proceedings refused to entertain parliamentary motions that have beon recog- nized as legitimate ever since the government was established, and when attempts have been made to appeal from his decisions he has re- fused to submit the question to the House. By his arbitrary rulings. sustained in some in- stances by less than a quorum, he has subverted nearly every principle of constitutional and parliamentary Soe harekotore recognized in the House, This personal and partisan domination of the House was submitted to, though not without repeated protests, until we became convinced that it was the deliberate purpose of the Speaker and his supporters to procced without rules to oust the democratic members whose seats are contested and admit their republican oppo- nents, whether elected or not. THE ELECTION CONTEST CASE. On Wednesday, January 29, the committee on elections called up contested election case, and the democratic members determined that m the absence of rules it should not be con- sidered if they could prevent it by any Proper parliamentary proceedings, Accordingly they raised the.question of consideration, demanded the yeas and nays, and on the call of the roll refrained from voting. The result was that less than a constitutional quorum voted, but the Speaker. in violation of the uniform prac- tice of the House for more thanacentury, pro- ceeded to count members who were present, but not voting, and declared that the House had decided to take the case up. From this decision an appeal was taken, and AND IMPORTANT. RE HAVEJUST PiSELN RECEIVED. The original ieby EDWIN LONG, R.A..

The Constitution of the United States pro- vides that a majority of each House “shall con- stitute a quorum to do businees, but a smaller number may adjourn from day to day and may be authorized to compel the attendance of ab- sent members in such manner and under such penalties as each house may provide.” Another clause of the Constitution requires each house to keep a journal of its proceedings, and pro- vides that when one-fifth of the members present desire it the yeas and nays shall be taken on any question and entered on the journal. Since the beginning of the government under the Constitution, more thana hundred years ago, the House ‘of Representatives and the Senate have uniformly construed the first clause of the Constitution quoted above to mean that ® majority of all the members elect must be present and actually participate in the trans- action of business, and that whenever, upona call of the yeas and nays, it appeared from the jowrne!. which is the only official record, that ess than the constitutional quorum has voted on any proposition, the vote was a nullity and no further business could be done until the from the National Association for this PRIZE ESSAY on NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY.Dr. Parkerand acorps of Assistant Physicians may be confi- dential! nes ae at the office of THE PEABODY MEDICAL INSTITUTE, Ne. 4 Bulfinch St., Bost: i EXPLAINS ITSELF, SYNDICATE CLOTHING COMPANY, 8.E.

Every presiding officer in the Senate and every Speaker of the Honse, except the present one, has held that when less than a quorum voted on a call of the yeasund nays, no matter how many might be actually present, it was his duty to take notice of the fact and declare that the pending bill or motion had not passed. MR. CARLISLE’S RULINGS, In answer to Mr. Reed's assertion that Mr. Carlisle had often certified bills as passed when & quorum was not voting, Mr. Carlisle stated: hen the vote is not taken by yeas and nays it is not entered upon the journal, but if any member makes the point that no quorum has voted Lap poo is a nullity and the vote must be taken over. The presumption of the law is that when nothing a; to the con- trary the proceedings of a legislative body are regular and valid, and therefore, when the offi- cial record does not show that less than a quorum voted, or attention is not called to the tact in such a way as to furnish legal evidence of it, the question cannot be made afterward. Many bills have been passed when there was no quorum voting, and it is equally true that many have passed when there was no quoram actually present; but this does not prove that the proceedings would have been valid in either case if the official record had shown the fact. The constitutional construction is argued in the address, and it is given asa rule in our Jurisprudence that when a particular construc- tion of a constitution or a statute has been for a long time acquiesced to, not only by those whose duty itis to execute it, but also by those whose personal and property rights are affected by it, the courts will recognize it as thi Pass Out to your pati 00 Dress, Salts, which sell trom peenpees Your counters at ° and Children’s Suits which slaughter at @1-25, $1.00, 82, 82.25, 6200 aud SYNDICATE CLOTHING COMPANY, aie S.E. cor.

The address continues with a summary state- ment of the democratic position: “When, therefore, the present Speaker repudiated this settled construction of the Constitution and decided that when this official record which the Constitution requires the House to keep shows on a call of yeas and nays that a quorum has not voted he can count members present and not voting, and thus, by his Ce en outside ROT BE UNDEKS« GOODYEAR ki WILLE LINDSAY, Manager. ‘HE WASHIN IN ARCHITECTURAL IRON T AND BRIDGE WOKKS.

Representative Jackson Ousted and Mr. Smith Given a Seat in the House. The House was in session until nearly 9 o'clock last night, and when they adjourned Mr. Jackson, the democratic contestee, was no longer a Representative, but in his stead Mr. Smith, the republicancontestant, was given the title to sit and vote in the House. After Tue Stan's report closed Mr. Wilson of West Virginia spoke in defense of Jackson and criticised the rulings of the Speaker in a ban- tering way, saying that in this new era (acting under general parliamentary law) the lobbyist would be a power in legislation. He (the lob- byist) would not be obliged to go around and give checks to individual members. What had members to do with legislation? [Laughter.] The aeons passed the bills; the Speaker ap- proved the journal. The lobbyist would have to come here not to bother with members but to “see” the Speaker, as a much more effective and cheaper way of lobbying. ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-SIX REPUBLICANS VOT- 1x0. The vote was then taken on ordering the Previous question on the adoption of the report of the committee on elections, and it was ordered: Yeas, 166; nays, 0. This is tho’ first time since the meeting of Congress that the republicans have had a quo- rum voting, and the result was received with applause. The only absentees on the repuvli- can side were Messrs, Caswell and Wilber, both of whom are sick. Four roll calls were required before the vote came finally on seating Smith, the contestant, but at the end he was declared entitled to the seat by a vote of yeas 166, nays 0, amid republi- can applause, Mr. Smith appeared and took the oath of office, whereupon Mr. Springer of Illinois sar- castically inquired whether this was the roper time to make a motion to adjourn. With a similar intonation of sarcasm, the Speaker re- plied in the affirmative, adjourned until today, sce by YR DESERTERS ARE NOT HAPPY, Gen. Greely Says Their Lives are Often Worrled by Blackmailers. “Tam very glad,” said Gon. Greely to a Stan reporter the other day, “to hear that the Pres- ident is thinking of issuing a proclamation of amnesty to the thousands of men who are still borne on the rolls of the army as deserters, Such a move can result only in great good, and with proper exceptions in the amnesty it will probably go far to eradicate some of the evils that now cling about our service. There are a very large number of men at large today who are making good citizens and are trying to for- get their army experience, which is but asa nightmare to them, There is many a case—I know of several, myself—where deserters who had. just cause for leaving the army and have since been leading honest lives, are being made miserable and being kept poor by blackmailers who have chanced in some way to learn their secrets, and are threatening them with ex- posure if they do not accede to their demands for money, An amnesty | gaemonpesae would eradicate this evil and would take away, to a very large extent, one of the bugbears with which the very best soldiers are threatened | today. When we come to consider that there are upward of 40,000 of these deserters whom the amnesty would affect, we realize the vast amount of mental suffering—uscless suffering | at that—which would disappear. It is not strange that these men should, in moments of | over-confidence, or perhaps of intoxication, tell his seeret to his neighbor, and then he becomes his slave.” ee MONTGOMERY COUNTY. Canal Interests—Improvements—Perso- nal Notes, etc. and the House, at 8:35, Correspondence of Tut Evextna Star. Rocxvitie, Mp., February 2. The recent decision of Judge Cox of the Dis- trict court, appointing receivers for that por- tion of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal within the territory of the District of Columbia, has greatly stimulated the drooping hopes of per- sons interested in the waterway for means of transportation, and the final decision of the circuit court for Washington county, Maryland, | is looked for with great interest. Since the closing of the canal several months ago land lying ina belt of six to eight miles from the line has depreciated in value fuily 40 per cent, and the owners are overjoyed at the prospect of something being done. It appears to be the opinion of intelligent men in that section of the county that the canal cannot be repaired and maintained as a waterway, even in the hands of a private company, in competition with railroads, Maj. Wm. J. Thomson, Charles F. Brooke and Robert H. Miller are each talked of for president of the agricultural society at the election on the 19th instant, Within the past few days there has been eat improvement in the condition of Mr. Ls A.Carter, who was stricken with paralysis & week ago. Mr. Isaac R. Maus, one of the oldest citizens of this place, is very sick with pneumonia.— Mrs. Mary M. Dodds, an aged lady of this place and well known in the District, where she resided for many years, has been danger- ously ill for the ee week, but is now con- valescent.—Mr, W. Reuben Pumphrey has commenced the erection of two fine cottages on Fayette street, this place, which will be ready for occupancy at an eurly day.-—Mr. 8. B. Haney has also commenced on the same street the building of a large carriage manu- factory, wheelwright and blacksmith shop.— Aforce of workmen is now engaged in the erection of two fine dweliing houses at the west end of town under the supervision of Mr. Cooke D, Luckett.——Messrs, Earnshaw and J C.

The Dignified Supreme Court and Some of Its Memories. While filibustering cannot be said to be com- mon in the Supreme Court of the United States, Yet onthe very first day of its meeting the point of no quorum was raised—this a hundred years ago—and that is why the centennial is celebrated today instead of on the lst of Feb- ruary. Nobody knows just in what building the Supreme Court held its first meeting in Now York, but a paper of that time speaks of their meeting in “the exchange” building. They met on the ist day of February, 1790, but had no quorum, The court record for that day reads: “Atthe Supreme Judicial Court of the United States, begun and held at New York (being the seat of the national government), on the first Monday of Februsry, and on the first day of said month, anno Domini 1790, Present: The Honorable John Jay, esq., seaplane The Honorables William Cushing and James Wilson, esqs., associate justices, This being the day assigned by law for com- mencing the first sessions of the Supreme Court of the United States, and a sufficient number of the justices not being convened, the court is ad- journed by the justices now present until to- morrow at one of the clock in the afternoon.” The next day they got a quorum and organized, Justice Blair being prevent. The court followed the government in its wander- ings in search of a — place of abode, going to Philadelphia about a yoar after ite organization, and coming from there to Wash- ington when the government came here to settle down and quit cribs | In Philadelphia the court met in the city hall, and at Washing- ton it has always met at the Capitol, except on one occasion in 1802, when the dignified court found itself again in the condition the House is sometimes in—minus a quorum, Then, as the quorum could not come to the court, the court went after the quorum. Two of the justices were too ill to attend the sitting of the court and they convened AT A TAVERN IN GEORGETOWN, where the two ill justices lived. At the first meeting of the court a hundred years ago they had very little to occupy their attention, In- deed, for a number gf years they were far from overworked, A number of lawyers were ad- mitted to practice before the court during the first year, but they do not seem to have had much practice before it, for the first case was placed onthe docket during the February term of 1791—a year after the court was organ- ized. This case waa entered as follows: “Pebruary Term, 1791. Nicholas Vanstaphorst and Jacob Vanstaphorst vs. The State of Maryland. Ordered, that Rutger Jan Schimmelpennenck, Peter Stadinski, Hendrick Vollenhoven, Chris- tian Van Eighen, holas Bonds, P. N huys and William Willinck be appointed com- missioners to take depositions in this case,” One small volume of the docket carries the record of cases from 1791 to 1808, The records of the court for the first fifty Yeurs of its life do not take up many volumes, The present over-worked court, looking back at these, must breathe asigh of envy, for the old justices had much honor and little toil. As late us 1855 the court could dispose of all its work by sitting but three months « year, At present about 500 cases are put on the docket each year, and a case dockcted today has no chance of being reached in less then four years unless for some special reason it is advanced, CLOTHED WITH LOBES AND DIGNITY. The Supreme Court is the great preserver of antiquity in this country. The old dignified formalities, the old style of flowing gowns, even the old furniture that was in the court almost at its birth, are preserved with religious ‘care. The new appointee to this court is clothed with the dignity, the antiquity and power which handed down from one gencration of justices to another, and when the robe of office falls on his shouiders he is raised out of the world of ordinary men, with their common prejudices and passions, He becomes a part of a permancnt and in- fallible branch of the governinent, from whose decrees there is no appeal. The justices of the Supreme Court are the simplest of citizens in their every-day life and the most inexorable of judges in their robes, Vroperly speaking there havo been but seven chief justices since the organization of the court, as John Rutledge was not confirmed and Wm. Cushing resigned before he had ever pre- sided over the court. The seven are: John jay, New York, 1739 to 1795; Oliver Ellsworth, Con- necticut, 1796 to 1500; John Marshall, Virginia, 1801 to 1835; Roger Brooke Taney, Maryland, 1836 to 1364: Salmon Portland Chase, Ohio, 1864 to 1873; Morrison Remich Waite, Ohio, 1874 to 1888; Melville Weston Fuller, Illinois, 1838, ———— A FOOLS’ CARNIVAL. Merry Scenes at an Entertainment Given by the Sangerbund. Last night was a gala one for the many Ger- Man citizens and their families who partici- pated at Edel’s hail in the “Narren-sitzun,” which meaus in proper English “the fools’ carnival” ‘The carnival was held under the auspices of the Washington San- gerbund and, as is the rule with the entertainments given by this organization, was enjoyable and successful, When Tue Stan | man entered the hall last night a bewildering sight met his eyes, The large hall was filled with tables, at which people sat, each one having o gaudily colored fool's cap stuck jauntily on his head. It is one of the un- written laws governing such occasions that every one present must be as much of a fool as Possible, The entertainment opened promptly at 8 o'clock with a dancing procession of fools headed by Mr. August Herbert ina jester's outfit, After dancing around the hall the pro- cession stopped on the stage and the members took their places behind along table. Paul Schultze, the president of the Sangerbund, made a few remarks in German, welcoming the guests and explaining the entertainment, Ho then proceeded to call upon speakers at ran- dom, As s00n as one was signaled an escort was sent to lead him to the pulpit, which was 4 representation of a large pot made of paper. In this the speaker took ‘his place. If he was too flowery in his remarks or uninteresting he was snuffed out by the descent of a large paper cap which hung from the ceiling ona pu! Messrs. Wolf, Altrupp and Lutz made speeches from the platform, ‘The room was then cleared and dancing followed. ——-—____ STREET CARS AND HISTORY, How the Record of Receipts Give Clues to Great Public Events. “Did it ever occur to you?” queried a man who sat next to a Stan reporter in a street car the other day, “how history could be written from no other source than the cash books of the street ear companies if all other means were destroyed? By history I mean, of course, the events of a city of certain sorts. Take, for instance, the past year, the advent of the 4th of March is clearly defined and even presage for Jays in advance by the rapidly increasin; receipts of all the car lines in town. It lasts for a few days and then is over. Summer timo bronght its gradual decrease in the population in the city and @ corresponding falling off of the gains of the companies. ‘The conclave of course, an enormous effect upon the fluctua- tion of the receipts and thus left its indelible mark.
