Under the rules b or tho upper branch ot congress any , senator Vlth a plethora ot Ideas, lu his system may communicate them to his brethren Just about whenever and however he pleases. In the house they do things illflercntly. I hero are three men who decide Mho shall speak, when ho shall sjieuk and what ho shall speak about. These men are the majority or tho lomintiteo on rules.

And the greatest ot tho three Is 'I ntie Joe." Ills colleagues on thu committee are men upon whom he can depend to cairy out his Ideas. Ills Is tho guiding genius that will direct the stream of oratory on tho lloor ot the house over the windows ot tnrltr rovlslon, through tho pools of curreucsy legislation nnd out into tho ocean at national progress, .lust now tho statesman from Illinois Is somewhat perplexed over the selection or a successor to (IrosVenor on this all-powerful committee, Iho choice seoms to bo lestrlcted to the ''Ihreo Jims" dim Walson of Indiana, the Re publican whip; Jim Sheridan of New Yoik, chairman of tho Re publican congressional committee, and Jim 'Inwney of Minnesota, chairman or tho appioprtatlons committee. Thoru Is not a llcpub. llcun member of the house who would not dance with joy over the prospect of serving with tho speak er and DaUoli.
