CONCORD, DEO 3 1898.
The statement is made that there
will be a ood (lel of opposition to
the elfctioa of Mr. Thos, B Heed to
the speakership of the House of the
Fifty-fifth Cougre33. rlvhe state
ment has probably little basis of
truih. It is more, than likely that
fhen the time came3 Mr, Reed will
be re-elected without opposition at
all. And yet he ought not to be.
The power of the speaker is only
second to that of the President him
self. Reed hates McKinley, and
wheli he hates he: is mean and
i. "-...' ".-
vicious He will, as Speaker, use
his poition to t a wart McKinley'a,
plans and to embarrass the adminis
tation. Politici ins are a mean lot
of devils, and vwhea .they cpaceiye
antagoaiam to those teir own
political household tL. . meaner
thanwhen they are fighting men of
the opposition party. McKinley de
feated Reed for the Presidential
nomination, and the latter is not the
kind of person to forgive an offence
like that. McKinley is right now a
candidate for I the nomination! in
1900; so is Reed. It may be accepted
s"a truth" that neither irgoing to
dc anything to forward the fortunes
of the other, and it is very certain
that whenever within tha next' four
years the opportunity presents itself
Reed will pat his knife i i McEanly
As Speaker he will have many opn
jportunities to do so.
It is desirable ihat Psident Mo-
IKinley should have a Congress in
both branches in,harrnony;y ith him,'
nd that he should haye the nnre
the presiding officer of the House
as to the President of th;e Senate
that is of less consequence, since
this officer cannot shape legislation."

to the best interest of the Repub

ought to be allowed to do. There
