Dceember 16, 1897. THE NEBRASKA INDEPENDENT. 5 h iNDKl'KNDENT. Omaha, Neb., .. 9, 107. :0YERC0AT SAMPLES. We show one hundred and twelve distinct styles oij Overcoats ranging in price from four dollars and a' quarter to nineteen dollars and a half. The significance! of this statement is thiswe buy more Overcoats and! sell more Overcoats five times over than any one store! in the great West, This will account for the fact that( our prices are always twenty and in many cases thirtyj per cent lower than any other house. Our order for( one line of Overcoats for this season necessitated seven thousand yards of material and it took the mill five weelTs to fill that one order alone. We only show two sam-j pies of Overcoat goods in our Catalogue 16, but we, issue a special card of Overcoat samples which is sent, on request to those wishing to get a better idea of our. line. Ask for Supplementary Card No. 6 if you want to buy an Overcoat at the right price j mm h OonnreHgman W, D. Vincent Ro- viewi tbe Work of tho Extra Session, IGNORED THE CONSTITUTION Session From Beginning to End Wan a Hug and Comical Farce. l'roii U fur th I'rcamit Mrulon. The present session of congress prom ise to accomplish tittle more than tho lost extraordinary session accomplished. The bouse will obey the will of speaker limit. Appropriation bill will be punned and tbe usual amount of patrouuge will be distributed. We may expect tbe same routine for the present session that existed during the last, which is described by Congressman W, I). Vincent In an article In the New Time. He says: The first session of the lifty-flfth con grees was Indued an extraordinary ses sion. 1'erhaps never beloreln the history of legislative bodies was so much time wasted and so little good accomplished in a given time. Tile house of represen tatives waM altiioet entirely responsible for thin do-nothing policy, the nute apparently being willing at all time to perform the duties devolving upon It. A late nu in tT of a lending magazine con tains a very ubly written puper by the speaker of the bonne, entitled: "How the I louse Doe Iiiisiness." A due apprecia tion of the "eternal fHlll'SS Of things" and a disposition to enlighten the public; would have prompted him to write upon the Mibji-ct; "How the hoUHe doe not do business." Two diiVH aflt-r President McKinley took the outh of office he inmied IiIh proc lamaliou calling fur the extraordinary wi-nion. Congress met in pursuance thereto at noon on March 15. Three days ufter the mission os'ued the tariff bill wan reported to the houne by the ways and memiM coniiiiittep, and thir teen days later.iifter ten days' dincussion, it plowed the houne, I rum March .'II until luly 24, tlie senate cimliuued to do buniuenn in the regular way, which in al ways tardy enough, to lie sure, but it metalmoHtdnily ami apparently enacted the UMiinl amount of legislation. I'ur the four months following the pusniige of the "Dingley bill" the houne wun iiom iuiiily in w union, but in reality it did nothing but meet and ndjouru. Kurlv ill the Reunion a resolution wan panned, which practically became a standing rule, that (he hotlne nliould mMtoiily on Monday and on Thursdays. Tint Tinted Htutes constitution, which t haorlically govern the action of congress a well U all other IrgialatIV budlen In til In country, says: ".Seltlier luiune, during the nmnion of roligrvaa, shall, without the conneut of the other, ml jour 11 lor more than throw data," ale.

If one man hal been left in charge of the houne and ill oilier member had gone home to ntuy lor the remainder of the nenniou, the proceeding would have been only a little more luilicroun and ecurcciy more in violation of the count it ut loii and the nworn oblluutioiiN of Dm memberit. An a matter ol fact, one man did practical do all that won done by the houne, It a humiliating fact that thin power wan delegated at different timen, directly and Indirectly, to the epeaker by vote of a majority of the member", The epeaker wan the houne uud the houne wnn tbe Nfieuker. What tower wan not given him under the rule be nnnumed and no other member of Ion party dared to op- pone him.

Ilrave and defiant in the cloakroom, they were cow ardn on the floor of tho bonne. The in fluenee of the party under control of nuch a director waa far more powerful than their patriotintn and Independence, The ponnible puninhmeut for breaking party trocen and incurring the dinfavor of tbe npeaker wan too much for tboee who belong to their party. Tho favorn at the dinponal of the npeaker and the puninhmeut buetaudn ever ready to mete out are not to tie denptneii oy men wno make politicn a buniuenn.

He recognizee 0110 member to move a bill und refunen to recognize un other equally entitled to the floor, but who hnn not named bin favor. An un excune to ignore memliern of the minor ity part ion, who were demanding to be heard, it wan not uncommon during the late cecMioii for the npeaker to reeoKiiiA) membern of iiin own party who were in their neatn ami not unking for recngui- t ion at all. Thone who were opponed to the policy of doing notliimr were gener ally deelared out of order when they at tempted to make a motion or hpeuk in favor of any attempt to proeend with leK'nlation; while any one of the little coterie of ntntCMinen who had been trained to do tint Hpeaker'n bidding could alwuvn get a hearing by asking lor it. Membern were even denied the privilege of unking uuunimoun couneut for the connideratiou of important reno lutionn, nuch, for iuntance, anareMolu tioa riiuentiiig the npeaker to appoint tli committee on invalid petinionn. lie fore any memtmr who did notntaud next to the throne could get a hearing it wan nceHnry for him to go in n-raou to the npeaker and ank lor it, ami il the mean lire did not meet with the dinrtorn in dorneuieiit the meinlM-r wan fold that ha would uot be recognixed for it intro duction, and aftr that be tuiht about, "Mr. 8eaker," until he waa black in the face ami the renponne would tnt tlia an me na he iiukIiI atpect from a wooden Indian.

It In indeed a great bouor to "reprenent" the dear pon tile, in congrenn under nuch circunintancen! I'p to the preeent time the npeaker ban been conniderate enough to permit mem ber to retain the title of "Honorable" and draw their nalary. mileage and clerk hire with commeuduble regularity; for nil of which their countituenta will no doubt continue to feel duly gratefull In all niattern ol real legfnlutioti they were cipher, to bo moved about or left to monotonous Inactivity, liko the figure on a checker board. Notwithstanding the four montlm' time which wun npent by the npeak er' Iioiihii in a ncrcHHful attempt to do nothing, the nenate continued to puna bill and nend them to the houne for concurrence, only to be Ignored. Num ber of meritorlou bill were waitUig the action of the npeaker. Inntead of re ceiving connideratiou, they were ntored away in little boxen, where they ntill nleep, At the next Mennlou Nome of them will be punned with out due conntderutlon while other will uot be connidered at all becaune there will not be nulllcient time (iood Din are ignored and uua one nmlied through at every nenniou of con gren for the want of time. Hut then it nliould not be forgotten that tbe nation enjoy the blenning of a "buniuenn ad miuintratlonl" The proprietor of the ndininintratlou evidently thought it wan buniuen to have congren play four montlm to tho neglect of needed leginla' M011, J,ven lu tlie Uincunnloo ol tbe new tariff law the minority wun largely do nied the right to critielHin, and no time given for debate on t he more important nchcduloN. lime wan too preclouNl When t lie bill came buck from tbe conference committee it panned the houne after a few bourn' debate, When the minority anked for more time tho chalrmun of the committee on way and meuiiN objecled, nuying that talk wan exponnlvo and wan conting tlie 'Jreunury f lUU.UOO a day Kt range that he wo not overcome by thin ntenk of economy during tho four montlm when tho houne wn doing notli iugt Hitcont 1 100,000 a day to din can the tariff bill It cont the name each day during that four montn, but uot one 01 the n;enkor unMintant complulnerl of tne expenae until tlie minority Uenired to criticlne the nugar trust meanure known un the Diugley bill." J he rule of the iloune expionnly state that "UulcM ot herwine aiiecially ordered by the Houne, the Kpeuker ehall appoint, at tbe commencement ol ouch uougroan, the following Ntunding committeea," (Hulo 10.) 1 hen follow a lint of ufty-ne ven com mittee. On the (lrnt day of the nennlon tbe Kpeaker appointed threo of tbone committee the Committee on Itulen, on Mileage and on Way and Mean and nonitively refuned to appoint tbe other fifty-four uutil the afternoon of the lant day of tbe nennion. He tried to Juntify bimnelf and tnrow tne ronponnibility up on the Iloune by claiming that a ma jority of it member Indorned bin courne becaune they bud tbe power to compel him to appoint tlie committee, but re funed to cxercine that power. Thin wun true, but It wan no len a violation of tho rulen; it wan only another mortify ing exhibition of the Hpeaker' arbitrary power. Tbe majority party controlled tho iloune, the caucun controlled the party, but tbe (Speaker and ehU dozen lieutenant controlled the caucun. While in reality it wan the (Speaker' indorne ment of bimnelf, the member of bin tarty were nou the lenn reprehenmble.
