Some Things You Want to Know
Tne American CongTcss Power of Committee On Rules.
A plea for united enterprise was made
Wednesday at a banquet of the South
Omaha Commercial club at the Greer hotel.
attended by sixty well known business men
of this city.
The menu was a liberal one and well
served by the host and his corps of as
slstanta. Murine; the meal music was
furnished by a four-piece orchestra led
by Henry J. Bock.
W. B. Cheek was one of the mont polNlvd
and suave of toastmastrr, It.? Introduced
speakers from the rank and file of the
Commercial club organisation, who pre
sented the alms objects and difficulties ol
the newly orcanlsrd body.
J. B. Vatk,ins, the first speaker, pre
sented something of the history of Com
mercial cluba In South Omaha and pre
sented some of the alms of the new organl
(allon. He said the new club was organls?d
alorg a plan exactly similar to the suc
ceesful Omaha organisation. A fund is
created In advance by Initiation fees and
dues aanesned to meet the times of
emergency anJ necessarily as they arise.
' Relation to the Preaa.
Bruce MeCulloch, being assigned ihe
topic, "Press Comments," drew an apt
illustration by telling the history of a so
called press club In .South Omaha. He
Intimated that the present organization was
"hot simply a way of bleeding the mer
chants of a few dollars, but for a better
purpose. He aald this was an age of news
papers and one which more than any other
had the advantage of early, accurate
knowledge of all human events and
activities. Just as thorough organization
had proved the great element of success
In journalism so a thorough business
organization would prove the key to com
mercial success In the city.
I,. M. Lord responded to "Financial
Pointers," and predicted a great future for
the two Omahas on account of the present
No other legislative body In the world that it shall be ordered to Its final passage

power as Is vested In tha committee on

do Is a long one; the list of things It may
not do Is exceedingly abort. The parlia
mentary world has adopted, as the result
of centuries pf experience, the doctrine that
every deliberative body must have aome
swtem of checks whereby a sudden or Im
patient majority Is prevented from riding
rough-shod over the minority. This system
usually takes the form of a constitution cr
set of rules which provides that some

jection from anyone. That was done In
the case of the act relating to the restora
tion of the negro soldiers In the Browns
ville case. The house leaders knew it was
a qurstlon loaded with dynamite, and that
they had to rush It through or there
might be an explosion In the house. Po
they chartered a legislative through freight

reception to Its passage without a single

It is a great power Indeed. Yet It is a
power that the peculiar situation In the
American house of representatives seems
to warrant. It was not suddenly assumed,
but has been the growth of sixty con
gresses. Democrats and republicans alike
have In turn aided In Its development,
and each party has roundly denounced It.
The real complaint, however, does not He
against the power vested in the committee.
Most men believe It essential that It should
be so. Applying this form as a corrective
against a recalcitrant minority and going
no funther than absolutely necessary, the
while protecting the minority 'the commit
tee could justify its every act. But the
trouble has been that the majority of the
committee on rules usually la as Impatient
and exasperated as the majority of the
house and is willing to go Just as far as
that majority will permit. Tet when it
knows that the minority and the Insur
gents constitute a majority It may deny
to them every advantage it gave to its
own friends.
A few examples of the things the corn-
many years past, president pro tempore of
theysenate.
Even as late as 1S7S the right to report
special rules was so little used that there
waa doubt as to the validity ot action
taken under such rules unless confirmed

the corporations rarely advised an Im
