William J. Bryan, of Nebraska, and.
Governor Harmon, of Ohio, were
prominent figures on the floor of tho:
House during the opening ceremonies!
iiitl both shared in the Democratic
demonstrations that marked the day
Had Governor Woodrow -Wilson been
pp'sent, the list of generally accept-'
ed Democratic Presidential possibil-
ities would have been complete. The
Senate's opening was sedate as usual. '
And while the leadership of the up-
per branch of the new Congress re
mains in Republican hands, the
change in the personnel of those as
suming command was almost as
marked as in the House itself. Al
drith, Hale, Beveridge and a dozen
others of both the regular and pro
gressive factions of the majority were
missed.
President Taft's message, dealing
with Canadian reciprocity alone, will
be read in the two houses of Con
gress to-morrow. It was with the
idea of securing action on this agree
ment that the extraordinary session
was called.
The Democrats of the House, how
ever, have formulated an ambitious
program, which includes the revision
of a number of the schedules of the
Payne-Aldrich tariff law.
Republican leaders of the Senate
have announced that there shall be
no tarfff legislation at the extra ses
sion. They declare they are not
alarmed at the threat of the Demo
crats to hold back the reciprocity
agreement until action is secured on.
general tariff bills.
The differences of opinion prom
ises soon to bring the two branches
into sharp conflict. A legislative
deadlock is freely predicted and the
length of the session seems now to
depend upon how long the Demo
crats House will continue to bombard
the Republican Senate with general
legislation bills.
From a political standpoint it is
likely that one of the most impor
tant things the Democratic House
will be to order a thorough investi-
gation of the various departments . help After many remedies fail
and branches of the Government ser-fed her aunt urge(j ner to take Dr
vice. The Democrats claim that there
have been no such investigation for
twenty years and that much good
campaign material as well as much
saving to the people will result from
them.
The session of the House to-day
was devoted wholly to the work of
organization. The adoption of the
new rules was put over until to-morrow.
The Republicans under the new
leadership of Representative Mann,
of Illinois, will make their first fight
on these. The Republicans resent i
the action of the Democrats in in-
creasing the membership of various
House committees without increasing
Percentage of minority , representa
tion. The Republican insurgents in the
House indicated their purpose of
continuing to act independently by
declining to vote for Mr. Mann for
Speaker and by giving their support
to Representative Cooper, .of Wis
consin. The insurgents gained a member
when Representative Theron Aiken,
of New York, was elected as an "In
dependent Democrat," and heretofore
carried on the Democratic rolls, cast
I his lot with them and chose a seat

I Representative Berger, of Wiscon-
I sin, the sole Socialist-in the House,
j voted "present" during the Speaker-
ship ballot.ng. He also chose a seat
I W1 tne Kepubhcan side. "Because,"
I he afterward explained, "I belonged
