HENDERSON NOT
SO POPULAR.
The Proper Thing is to
Promptly turn the
Speaker Down.
By Union Associated Press.
Washington, May 80.-Speaker
David B. Henderson is no longer
so popular a leader as he one:,
was. Four good jolts in quick
succession have convinced him
that he is no good. He had fine(j
success, as a rule, during the
last congress and was doing very
well last year, until the Cuban
reciprocity bill came up, whirch
measure, he with many other re
publicans, was against. He went'
so far as to write a. letter about
his position as speaker of the
house of representatives, insist
ing that the same relief be given
to Cuba as to the subsidized su
gar trust. The letter was hardly
mailed before Henderson him
self changed about face and took
with him his leaders.
Just here something happened
that gave him a rude awakening.
Representatives whom he had
previously controlled concluded
to stay where they were at first.
After that it became a regular
thing to overturn the leaders.
Henderson's haughty mien and
majestic frown assumed the dic
tatorial actions of a Czar. The
crown does not fit him comfort
ably. There is a proposition
afloat to eliminate the speaker
as a member of the committee
on rules.
