If the House Ii to continue its preEen
programme, as seems reasonably certain,
it may bo a little difficult for that body
to respond to President MoKinley's spec
ial message asking that , the necessary
legislation for the official participation
of the United States. Government in the
World's Exposition to be held in Paris
In 1900, be put through Congress. Il
could, of course, be done by "unanimous
consent," but important as the matter is,
there might be objections in the 1 House,
not because they might object to the
legislation itself, but because they might
object to that melhol of passing it. The
method that will most, probably be
adopted,' will be to report a special rule
from the Committee an llules, just as
was done when -the Homo passed the
left over appropriation bills. Many per
sons regard this matter n one of the
most important that will come before
this session of Ct ngress, and one that
shouliba sree lily .disposed of, as the
time will be none too ranch in which to
arrange for a creditable showing for
Uncle 8am at the Paris Exposition.
There should be no politics in this.
It is difficult to undeistnnd ,wliat the
minority of the House expect to gain by
the seemingly wrangle among them
selves which characterized the two last
meetings of the House. It seems to an
unprejudiced perjon that they ought to
see that Speaker Reed gave them rec
ognition on their claims of "personal
privilege'' just to allow them to thump
each other for the edification of theii
opponents and for the amusement of the
crowded galleries. And ft ought to bt
equally clear that the editor of the local
paper, who declared that Representative
Bailey, of Texas, wore a Reed collar, and
who was denounce 1 by Mr. Bailey, as a
malicious and infamous Jiar, has takei.
ildes in the wrangle more to gain notor-
ety for his paper than for anything else.
Some of those engaged In this wrangl.
have claimed that Mr. Bryan was op
posed to Mr, Bailey beinj the leader o
the, minority in the House. This may b
true, but if so Mr. Bryan took special
pains when be was in Washington Jas
week to leave a contrary impression, by
being particularly attentive to Mr.
Bailey. The whole thing is a tempest in
i tea-pot anyway. Tho majority of tin
House sometime ago decided upon t
programme which they have so far car
ried out to the letter, and which every,
body knows they can continue to earn
out just as loni as they desire, regard
lees of 'What the minority does. The
wrangling In the minority Is aver tin
somewhat ridiculous question of whethe
the the will of the majority shall be quiet
ly bowed to or whether the mlnorlt;
ball kick their toes against the stooet
and butt their heads against an lmmov
able brick wall every time trie hous
meets, the Balleyltes being for quletl)
