Both Blaine and Randall added greatly to the prestigw of ttxt speakership, but neither undWtor to deprive the minority of the r1ht" of filibuster. Indeed, Mr. Blajne in the chair once became "In surgent" and acted with the minority.

Clay quoted no authority for his parliamentary rulings and depended upon the loyalty ot hia fol lowing on the floor -a sustain the chair In me event of an appeal. Tha modern doctrine of the use of the "previous question" ae established by Clay waa me result of me efforts of the New England representatives to prevent war with England. Under the rules then obtain ing the opposition could have delayed ac tion for an Indefinite time. The previous question was ordered, me new construc tion of Its meaning given to It and the majority triumphed. The successors to Clay In the speaker ship did not hesitate to make use of the power which he had given to Uie position. Tmf for many years lltfie preatlce teas added to the chair. Only one speaker of (ho house, however, was absolutely nonparti san, regarding his position as mat of a moderator such as Is held by the speaker J. Wsn-en Kelfer was me next speaker. He Is now a member of the house. His Intense partisanship prevented his achiev ing fame as speaker, hut he came near lo jeing great. He ruled that the bouse could not tolerate dilatory tactics and was prepared to take the step of counting a quorum. But Reed of Maine and Kossun ot lows, and other republican leaders told him that they would not support such a revolutionary procedure and . Kelfer de sisted. It was reserved for Reed, ten years later, to count a quorum, revolu tionise the rules of me house and stop the "right" of filibuster. Then came John G. Carlisle, a demo crat, who held to the theory that me speaker waa the leader "of congress, that be should have a definite legislative policy and that be should so compose commit tees and so grant recognition as to secure the success of bis. policy. This was a long step forward In, centering the power ot the house in thalapaker. Mr. Carlisle was the first Strang .exponent ot the personal power of the speaker.

Hunter of Virginia, ths youngest man aver elected speaker, hs be ing but 30 years old when he took the gavel In UuS. During ths stormy dys leading up to the civil war the chair wag the refuge of mediocrity. During the war period and the early reconstruction era me speaker was me servant of Thaddeus Stevens. Tbe overwhelming republican majority made strong rules unnecessary there was no op position to crush. As the democratic party began to come back to life James G. Blaine became the speaker of the house. He added to the power of the position of speaker by assert ing ths right to grant or withhold leeog nitlon at his pleasure. This Is the speak er's greatest Individual power, and with out It the present method "of legislative procedure In me bouse could not exist. In the senate, neither the power to order the previous question nor the right to grant preferential recognition Is tolerated. Mr. Blaine was the first speaker to make use by abolishing the fiction of actual presence and constructive absence. Under his leadership the house adopted tbe "Reed rules." substantially as they govern the bouse today. He was' succeeded by Chart m F. Crisp, a democrat, who developed me power of the committee on rules, but whs abated no essential feature of the Reid rules. Spesksr Henderson and tha present speaker have added nothing of great im portance to the power of the speaker or to the rules of the house. But now Mr. Cannon Is facing a fight for the revision of the rules and a return to a more liberal system of procedure In the house. The present congress probably will decide the Issue, either by Its' own action or by plac ing the issue before me voters next November. By nsBEucx j. stAjncxjrm.
