Speaker Cannon and His, Methods

WASHINGTON, Jan. 11. A cry
for copies of tho rules of tho house
of representatives comes out from
Kansas, It is an indication, If ono
were needed, that Speaker Cannon
and tho rules will bo tho Isau In tho
Kansas congressional clectlcnB uesfc,

instudy of the rules there are per
Ilous days ahead for congressional
candidates. It Is a fact that tho
House rules are as complicated as Is1'
tho statuto iaw, and that not more!
than ten per cent of the member-
shin of tho house are familiar wlthi
a t,,rtiM tno to

ii!.i ..t J MTTmaI. Taa" Mm.
pert at his elbow when he presides, 1
to post him regarding knottv ques
tions that may arise during tho pro
ceedings. A speaker, like a judge,
places great weight on tho decisions
of his predecessors. Rulings made!
by speakers of the houso since the
flrst congress have been preserved
In aset of largo volumes and quota
tions might be useful In confusing
speakers because tho amplo volumes
Contains decisions on all sides of all
questions. Kansas may become tech
nical, but in the rest of tho country,
wliore Cannonlsm becomes an issue
the fight will be waged on tho speak
er and whqther wlso uso is mado of
that power.
"A CORNER IN WHEAT,"
STR0NG PICT0RIAL EDITORIAL
At tho Savoy last night was shown
n remarkable film, entitled, "A Cor
ner in Wheat." This is not a picture
drama, although it is presented with
drnmntie force. It is an argument,
nu editorial, a thesis on a vital sub
ject of deep interest to all. Tho
thame is the rising cost of living, the
inability of the masses to meet the
increase and tho part played by tho
speculator in bringing about this un
fortunate condition. No orator, no
editorial writer, no essayist could so
strongly nnd effectively present the
thoughts that aro conveyed in this!
tfoture. It opens up n new era for1
jnofion pictnro subjects. No
ono j
iiould miss seeing this pictorial ar
gument.
The balance of tho program was
B Ifti;the, tistinl high standard and
kept tho houso in convulsions of
laughter. Tho Bamo program will bo
shown tonight. Doors open nt 7 p.
