Vice President Mohler cut loose from the party et Denver, returning to Omaha di- rect. His speclal car, No. put into running shape and he left imme- diately for St. Paul. This move was prob- ably a result of the conferenee of the head of the Harriman officlals and his cabinet officers. The Switchmen's union had its petition | before tho railroad managers at St. Paul this week. The men demanded an Increase in wages and inasmuch as this request was made in advance of the demands of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen it fs to be given first comsideration by the rail- roads. ~The switchmen first formulated their démands for an Increase in the sum- mer of 1907, but owing to the financial At Kansag City the local officials were joined by J.

Patterson is Still Among the Missing Head of Employes’ Protective Asso- ciation Has Sent No Word to Friends. All efforts to locate Harvey J. Patterson, the missing head of the supposedly de funct Employe’s Protective assoeiation have proven futile. At the offices of the company, 5-39-40 Paxton block, the only information obtainable was that Mr. Pat- terson has been missing since last Thurs- day. Dr. Stacy B. Hall, the physiclan and surgeon of the company, in whose offices the Employes’ Protective association has been quartered the past month, or, in fact since its inception, professed Ignorance as to Patterson's whereabouts or what prompted him to leave. The same lack of information was professed by Attorney John G. Kuhn, attorney for the association, who also has office quarters on the third floor of the Paxton block: On the.letter heads of the association appears the name of F. L. Patterson as secretary and treasurer. From what could be learned yesterday, there is no such per- #on, at least he never appeared In the as- soclation’s office, nor was his name ever mentioned In the presence of Attorney Kuhn Efforts to ascertain Patterson’s Omaha address have been without result. Dr. Hall vouched the information that Patterson was marrfed and had purchased furniture here with which to furnish a flat or house while Attorney Kuhn sald he belleved Pat- terson to be sing' Dr. Hall sald he had never seen Mrs. Patterson, although a cer- woman had on numerous occasions called the office on the telephone and asked for Patterson. Patterson, upon learning of the call, would invarfably say it eame from his wife. Mr. Kuhn said he belleved Mr. Patterson lived somewhere on (apitol ave- nue, but where he had not the slightest notion. During his residence in Omaha Patter- son’s name has not appeared In the city directory, ncither has there been any tele- phone In his name, excepting an automatic phone in the assoclation’s offices, under the name of Hall and Patterson, the number being A-4446. - As Patterson sub-rented from Dr. Hall, it was but natural both should use the same telephone and number. There have been no new developments in the alleged fallure of the protective asso- clation. The desk of President Patterson remains locked and members of the asso- clation who call for explanations of jobs promised them fall to get any cheering in- formation. The police end of the quest has by no means been dropped, although at headquarters nothing has been given out as to what is being done. It 18 learned that Patterson claimed to be a son of ex-Governor Patterson of Town and a nephew of Senator Thomas Patter- son of Colorado.

The little brunette in brown swept out of the court room at Council Bluffs, when the Dobbins case was submitted to the jury. She had been there all to herself through the trial, confiding IA no one. As she passed from the court room she thrust a paper Into the hand of Captain L. B. Cousins, the balliff, and went trip- ping down the etairway. That staid officlal, completely ‘flabbergasted,” un- folded the bit of note paper and read the verses. “I guess that don’t explain much, he remarked when 'asked who this woman was. “She has been here must of the time, and she has never said a word to anybody. I never meftioned it though—you see I wanted some one person in the case, at least, to escape vou reporters. Now you're after this little: woman.” The woman im the case had faded out. | Her identity was hidden behind a thick brown auto vell, which sg completely matched her dress and other detalls of her garb that she seemed just a'mist as she flashed out of sight. A big burnt orange plumé waved from her hat saucily. A ripple of amused astonishment over- took the lawyers In the case when they learned from the balliff of the happening. Two women, ever nameless, have been mentioned in the trial. Who and what they are or whether they actually exist or not is a trifle uncertain on account of the nature of the testimony about them.

Charles Miller, a junk dealer, formerly re- siding at Sixteenth and Cass streets, shot Jim Towles, colored, in the back of the head with & 3-caliber revolver as the result of a rivairy for the love of a woman of white skin, Edith Hunter. Towles is not fatally wounded. Miller s still at large and has a dent in his head made by a blow from a club in the hands of Towles' son, who rushed to his father's rescue. The brawl oceurred at 7:15 Tuesday morn- Ing, in the room of the woman at 1224 Izard street, which also happens to be the dwell- ing place of the negro. The woman and Towles assert that Miller had been forcing his attentions upon the woman against her protestations and had visited the house though she had warnod him not to. When he reached there this time he found Edith Hunter sitting at the head of her couch and Towles at the foot. Some words ensued, and Miller, so Towles and the woman say, whipped out his pistol and shot Towles in the back of the head. Towles' young son was aroused by the shot and rushed into the room swinging a big club and planting one blow with much emphasis upon the cranium of Miller It drew blood and Miller fled. The last seen of him he was going south on Four. teenth street. Detectives Van Dusen anh Maloney chased him a distance, but lost track of him. He has a crack In the back of his head and they expect to get him without mueh difficulty, Police surgeons took Towles in charge and say that the shot which hit him in the head will not prove serious.

This congress will determine, either by its own vote or by its record as submitted to the people next year, whether the present legiflative system shall be per- petuated, or whether the power of the speaker of the house shall be curtalled This s a very serious question, upon which good and Honest men sincerely dif- fer. Tven If this congress does not find the solution of the problem, it will be cor- tain to focus the attention of the country upen it and prepare the issues to be settled at the ballot box. The Sixty-first congress met in extraordi- nary session last March in response to & proclamation of President Taft. When it adjourned In August it had passed a tariff bill, popularly kiown as the Payne-Aldrich bill. Tta legislative activity was contined strictly to the tariff, and upon every other specles of legislation the Sixty-first con- gress as yet has had no opportunity to ex- press itself. But of even greater interest politicall than the tariff bill is the fact that in the Sixty-first congress there is a scrious split in the ranks of the republican majority. A similar schism appeared in the ranks of, the minority, but democratic splits do not possess the Interest of novelty. The repub- lican party has beén distinguished for its solldarity, for its excellent diseipline, and for its fidelity to the organization. For fourteen years It has enjoyed complete control of the national legislature and for twelve years It has controlled all branches of the federal government. During that time there has been more than ome sharpe contest within the party upon a question of party policy, but such quarrels always have been settled without breaking the s0lid front of the organization as presented to the enemy. At the very beginning of the Sixty-first congress a considerable body of republican representatives arrayed themselves in op- position to the party organization in the house. Later a compact and aggressive section of the republican majority in the senate rebelled against the party leader- ship on the tariff question. These rebels in both houses have come to be known as insurgents.” It is they who will make the coming session of congress Interestfng. The fight will center about the person of the Hon. Joseph Cannon, speaker of the house of representatives. He rep- resents the existing system of legislative procedure by virtue of his office, and he embodies in his personalfity v to | “the organization” which has been the | cardinal doctrine of his party He is not to be held responsible for the system of | legislation obtaining In the house, although he is, of course, responsible for his use of that systera. When he came to the | speakership he found that his predecessors ' had built up a em which gave the| speaker practically unlimited power to con- trol legislation in the house. He has used that power as he has seen it. The “in-| surgents” are of two classes—those who oppose the system on principle, and those | who oppose Cannon for 1 re The loyal republicans are of three class those who consider party discipline as a sufficlent rule of conduct, those who are bound to the speaker by virtue of received or expected, and those who b lieve that the present system is the b possible method of legislation in the hous Mr. Cannon maintains that his gavel 1 the emblem of authority conferred upon the speaker by the majority of the repre- sentatives; that he represents the Jority In everything he does and that majority at any time may remove him; that abondonment of the essentlal rules ot present procedure would turn the house into an uncontrollable mob incapable of | any kind of legislation, and that as long s he is on the job It will be his job. Agalnst ‘Mr. Cannon the majority of the | democrats and the republican insurgents marshal many arguments. They declare | that he has so abused his power that u.e’ house is enslaved to his will; that he is able to obstruct, and does obstruct, legislat on demanded by the people; that he is gulded by his personal prejudices and opinions rather than by considerations of the public ma. the The American Congress—The Congress Today : good, and that he Is utterly unamenable to the changes of opinion superinduced by_the progress of the nation. Then there is a personal aspect of the tight. There is the “Uncle Joe" Cannon of the ““common peopls,” he of the home- spun suit and the rakish cigar, he who adorns the good story and decorates the plcture of the homely virtues of the ideal of Uncle Sam. There is also Tory Joe Cannon, opposed to every progressive sen- timent, the enemy of all that is beautiful, the foe of all that is good, the fountaln of unpleasant and impolite conversation and the bogle-man of the ‘“fair-haired boys" lately grouped about the foot of the throne of Theodore Roosevelt. Somewhere be- tween these two is Joseph G. Cannon, a representative from the state of Illinols, who Is now serving his fourth term as speaker of the house of representative. But Mr. Cannon entered upon the duties of his fourth term under very different conditions than had prevafied at the begin- ning of preceding congresses. A number of representatives of his own political faith supported the majority of the demo- cratic members in an effort to change the rules to strip the speaker of his right to appoint the committees. Buch a change would have meant the downfall of the power of the speakership. Every effort to invoke the sanctity of party discipline falled, and appeal was made to the demo- crats. Twenty-three of the 172 democrats seceded from thelr party and set up an- other set of rules, slightly changing the exlsting order, but leaving the power over committees in the hands of the speaker. The majority organization was forced to accept this compromise, and Speaker Can- non retfined his power by a narrow margin of five votes. Thus while he was elected speaker by a majority composed of his own party, he hods his power as speaker by commission from a majority made up of many republicans and a few der-acrats. A republican member of congress, at that counted as Insurgent, has charged that the necessary democratic support was ob- tained by a corrupt bargain made between Speaker Cannon and Tammany hall. One of the first fights in the coming session of congress will be waged to obtain a con- gressional investigation of this charge by a committee to be named by the house on ballot, and not by the speaker. Mr. Can- non scoffs at this charge. Mr. Cannon says that a majority of the house at any time may remove him from the chalr. This is true in theory, but in fact the speaker could defend his position against any majority that did not reach two-thirds of the whole house, The speaker now poksesses the absolute right to de- termine whom he shal! recognize. Every member seeking recognition must make arrangements beforehand with the speaker. It is hardly probable that he would will- ingly accord recognition to any member for the purpose of moving to declare the speakership vacant. The engine by which the speaker gov- erns the house is the committee on rules. Sometimes the house is permitted to con- sider and discuss unimportant bills In regular parliamentary deliberation. But this privilege 1s never accorded when an important measure Is put upon Its passage. The committee on rues brings in a specta rule, reporting the bill and providing for its consideration. The rule stipulates the exact time of debate; expressly provided what amendments shall be permitted, it any; and leaves the house no opportunity to do anything but accept or reject the bill in the form deemed proper by the com- mittee, The insurgents will attempt to overthrow the power of the speaker by attacking this committee on rules. When the committee brings in a special rule, Mr. Dalzell, its spokesman, will present the report and move the previous question. It the prev- fous question Is voted, debate is cut off and the report 1s not subject to amed- ment. If at any time the democrats and insugents can muster & majority to vote down the previous question, then the rule reported will be subfect to amendment. Opposed to all efforts to amend the rules and deprive the speaker of his power s that section in the house which belleves the present system to be absolutely neces- ry to accomplish legislation. It is argued that the surrender of the power of the A NOBLE RECORD time loyal to the speaker, but now ac- majority as concentrated In the speaker- skip is to Invite filibustering by the minor- ity, and the strangulation of public busi- Ltess. Men holding this view declare that it 1s better to permit a speaker chosen by a majority to dictate what legislation shall pass, than to glve a minority the power to prevent the passage of any or all measures. Expert students of pariia- mentary law demur to this opivion, and point out the fact that the House of Com- mons in England, a much Jarger body than the house of representatives, manages to legislate under ordinary procedure, while the United States senate deliberates upon all measures before it without restriction or limit. The insurgent element In the senate Is opposed to some af the polices of thay majority of ‘tHe repubttan pRred i that body. Insurgent senajors Will be watohed by the whole countky With interest, but it is not without the realm of possibility for them to come into control of the senate. The fight will center in the house, There it is possible for a coalition of démocrats and insurgents to overthrow the ruling powers. If it shall e done it will estab- lish a new precedent In American legisla- tive history and will crystallize a new doctrine In our unwritten constitution. | Whether or not anything so radical is accomplished, the forthcoming struggle will provide lssues for the next congres- slonal electionc. Everybody will be inter- ested in the winter's session, whether ‘they be loyal nephews of ‘“‘Uncle Joe,' ad mirers of Champ clark, or insurgent braves off the republican reservation. By FREDERICK J.
