Mr Howell ot Illinois has shown a special
adaptibility for the position of chairman of
the committee on elections Ho has served
for throe congresses Ho is a iluo lawyer
has made a study of election laws and is con
ceded to bo eminently fair
No ono thought for u moment that Mr
Cannon of Illinois would not bo at the head
of appropriations as ho has served on
the committco so many jojirs with
such universal efficiency Ho is
careful honest and economical , jot not
stringent when the development of the coun

Never in the history of the government
