Republican Wheel Horse In the

- Critic and I Parliamentarian.
Washington, Oct. 15, -When It comes
to being "on the Job" you have to hand
It to' the' Honorable James R. Mann,
leader of the Republican minority, in
the ; house. .. .v.-i-'.V ;,'..
' He is the. watchdog of the treasury,
the official objector, the parliamentary
sharp, the -self -constituted scrutlnlier
of all legislation" and the bast player of
politics in the august lower house of
the national legislature. And, It might
be added, he is the hardest working rep.

often these days. He la making a cam
paign issue out of the "caucua rule" of

the alert every minute of the time to

latest achievement, and one on whlcH he
promises to bedevil the Democrats for
some time to come, waa the introduction

- The principal function of a minority
in congress is to orltioua "Jim" . Mann
Is the best critic that ever tilled the

can say more mean things ' about
measure or a policy than pretty, nearly
any man in the house. . uann works
night and day. When congress Is in ses
sion he Is in his seat on tn floor every
minute of the time. It Is very seldom
that be leave for luncheon. He will
sit end munch some st chocolate
rather than run a chance of something
slipping by. He Is at the session when
Speaker Clark's gravel falls convening
the house, and he doesn't leave until the
motion . for : adjournment Is passed . at
the -close of each day. Then he goes
home with a huge bunch of newly Intro,
