ROME GEORGIA. TUESDAY EVENING APRIL 17. 1894. REEDS RULE'S. They are Adopted by the Present Congress CANT GET A QUORUM And are Forced to Swallow the Verj Rule They condemned so Bitterly two Years ago the next Congress Will be Democratic, and None btt Democrats Put on tiuarrt. Washington, April 17. —Th» new ru • to count a qorum will ’ e reported to the house from the committee on rules tomorrow. It w >tj completed today. It is unlike Reed'a old rule, in that this pro vide* for the appointment of tel lers who shall stand at the desk and count those member* present and not voting, while under Reed's rules the speaker himself did the counting. The public will quickly grasp the distinction. Under this rule there can be no counting of hat* or members who are in the restaurant or in committee rooms. Th# two teller* will be of differ ent political parties. Each will be a check upon the other aud only members present in the hall of the home can be counted. The new rule will not provide for fining members. That is al ready a law. It has never been en forced, but hereafter the sergeant at-arms will be required to enforce >t. When members understand it is to be enforced ard their salaries are to be deducted the rule to count members will not be necessary ou many occasions. Speaker Crisp fought Reed s tac tics in counting a qourum in the fifty-first congress. It will be re membered, however, that the fight made against Reed was when he counted a quorum before he had the authority of the house to do so —before the hou«e had adopted his rules. At that time, acting un der all the precedents of tb*» past in the house of lepresental v s, h i believed the counting of a quorum by the speaker to be uncoustitu tijnal. He likewise believed it was pthciug too much arbitary power in the hands of thv speaxer. This latter objection was overruled by thejsupreme court. That court de. dared the counting of members present aud not voting to make a' quorum was constitutional. A QUESTION OF PROCEDURE. As the court baa so decided and «nd the republicans can aud are blocking all business of the house, the speaker believes the democrat ic majority is thoroughly justified in adopting such a rule. It is a mere question cf procedure. No principal is involved Under such procedure only can relief be af forded to the people, and the speaker, as well as the great mass of democrats, believe that the par ty owes it to the country to adopt rules,provided they are constitu tional, that will enable the bouse to do business. The chances are, that a quorum of democrats will be present tomorrow. The talk of fining them, has caused a grand rush of absentees toward the capitol. Even the ten that have gone to Senator Vance's funeral, will not be missed, for there are enough to make a quorum witheat them iu the city. But a large number of democrats seem ready to bolt the c .ucus action and vote against the new rule. Their only reason, is because it looks like an endorsement of Reed's rules. Speaker Crisp is determined that there shall be no more long delay in the house. No time wifi be lost in adopting the new necessary. The house will do business. If there be any delay in the conclusion of this congress it will be due to the senate and not to the house, KOK DYSPEPSIA, tedtei-.wff'Hi, :md Stomach disorders, take BROWN S IKON BITTEHS.
