Evening Post says: "The Speaker of the House of Representatives is the most powerful man in the Govern ment next to the President himscll. and gives the following reasons for the re mark : "While it is the President's constitu tional duty to execute the laws, and he is entrusted with certain limited powers to that end, the Speaker exercises, or at least can exercise, upon the making ot the laws not only more influence than the President but sometimes even more than the majority of the House over Which he presides. The principal legis lative woi kof she House ot Representa tive!B; is done in the committees. There bills are discussed, amended and prepar ed in detail. The House itself is more a voting than a deliberating body. Debate is limited and generally exercises scarce ly any influence upon the votes ol mem bers, except when so directed as to make an impression upon public opinion cal culated to frighten time-serving politi cians in Congress. To change a legisla tive measure in the House against the wish of the committee having it in charge is very diflieult unless the attempt be aided by the Speaker. It is, in the tirst place, the privilege of the Speaker to ap point the committees which prepare leg islation. Then it is the Speaker who 'recognizes' members who claim the floor. It is within his power to give the preference to this one or that one as lie may prefer the proposition to be brought forward by this one or that one. lie construes in the first instance and en forces the complicated rules of the House which are a profound mystery to most members, and lie may construe and en force them or omit to enforce them in favor of or against motions or amend ments as he may favor or oppose them, and the ruling of the Speaker is but rare ly reversed bv a vote of the House. The action or pretended action of the House of Representatives is not seldom so rapid and confused that scarcely anybody but the presiding olllcer knows what is go ing on, and he may sometimes put mo tions to a vote, and declare tliem car ried or defeated without attracting the attention of anybody except those im mediately interested. It is therefore as sumed by many that when the Speaker is in favor of a measure his support is al most as good as a majority, and that when the Speaker earnestly opposes a bill its friends will have to be very keen and active to save its chances. It is ! needless to point out how dangerously such a power may be abused when en- j trusted to an unscrupulous man." giawiSligiggg^sgEiS^ No Preparation on earth equals ST.
