A WBI.t^ADVTRTISttD PERFORMANCE WHICH DTD j

[BT HI ??>!? TO THE TP.IHfN'I-1
Washington. Jan 21?When the House of Tlepre
eentattvea ws? railed to order to-dav there was an
unusually large attendance of members, and th? gal
lerlea were well filled. Everybody ?re? expecting to
aitness exciting arenes ?ni fn hear "tn!k with the
bark on." as a Texas statesman phrased It. The
wnrd hid been pa?sed that Mr Bailey, the nominal
?eader of the minority, would make "? personal ex?
planation." In the courue of wh'.rh he would lnhorss
the Sp'aker. demolish the amiable chairman or the
Committed on Foreign Affairs, and. so to ap<-ak,
cause the members of the minority to eh'.ver and
ahudiler with terror. It ?rat an enM !ng pri gTSmme,
and It was with bated hreath and /?ale an I anx 0 li
rounter.ancea that timid ?trangers who had been
forewarned saw th? Texas statesman rise to his
feet, expand his ampie -?lest and open his mouth,
?nd heard him, In ids d<>epeat and moat aonoroua
tone, exclaim: "Mr. B| "aker""
Everybody wh-i bed sen In the House on Thurs- '
day when Mr. Bailey atrova to elevate a lather stu- i
piil misapprehension of hla own to the dlgplty of an I
lasua of veracity between the Speaker and himself,
thought he understood th? alleged ground of ?rlcv
anoe, and therefore was considerably snrpiised to
find that Mr. Mailey hat abandoned It tO-d?y and
planted himself elsewhere His attempted explana?
tion whs a total failure ar.d ,i>o a glittering ?ueceaa
As an attempt to Impeseh the fairness ?nd Rood fa.th
of the leaders of the majority It was a ianv-'
failure, but aa a disclosure of la.-k of psreeptloi
ski!!, in a parliamentary asase, if th - lender of the
minority. II was a eon.pb t,- and unequivocal SUC- :
In all fairness, however. It must be said that Mr
Bailey la not often ao dull as he waa on th? c
casion which provoked ?.is remarks of to-dnj. in j
his eagerness, which waa shared to the fullest et- ,
tent by his Democratic and Populist followers, "to '
put the majority In a hole," he forgot that the j
rules of parliamentary procedure cannot he set !
aside or overtu ned by any agreement or under*
standing (in this cese it may hav? been a misun?
derstanding! made or entered Into by any numher ;
of members sn-aibr than the ??>,.i| number of a
'e^isiaiive body. Still leaa could th? Committee of
the \\'hc> do anything, even by unanimous con?
sent, which would art ns a waiver of the rulea of
the Ho-.i^e. whcNe aubordinat? It Is. For Mr. Bailey
?o cn-.-rt and reas-rrt. as he did to-day, '
Waa hla "understanding," and "th? undents)
Of everybody on this al.le of the House," that such ?
s thin? waa done or sttemp! d to be done on i
Wednesday, amounted to a coiifession of his ir.or,- i
pa tlty ;.s ? parliamentary lendi r
The nature and scope of the agreement made In |
the Commlttte of the Whole on Wednesday were
?learly and accurately defined by Chairman HI? '
of the Committee on Foreign Affairs m hla state?
ment to the House to-day, which was fully sup?
ported by the paessgaa which Mr, Bailey had . led
fron "The Record" to sustain hi? own position
The "personal explanation" which followed Mr.
Batley'a labored iffort, ?rhen i :irk, of
? irl, was taken to task by Mr Bteele, of In?
diana, f.r taking undue liberties with the report of
of hia remarks in "; i Ri . I," was suc?

looks now. It all depends upon th? entent of th?
placer diggings?the "poor man'e diggings," u
they are called. It Is only these which se: ,'n mo?

California and Australia witnessed, a? the
placer diggings are exhausted, or all g i |
ground taken up, and the capitalist comes In
with his costly machinery to extract and crush

go down as the gold becomes harder to get.
When the pick and the pan have to be aban?
doned for the drill and the crusher, there ar?
no bonanzas for any man who can sMk* a c'V.m;
no more wages of %h) to $'JO per day for every?
body willing to work. The mining s?-i*, down to
the level of an averag? business Industry, and
