(From our Regular cuascaiceuibnt)

Wasuineton, D. C., Dec. 27 °95.
Speaker ReedTs muzzles are in. prime
working order, ,He muzzled the mem-
bers of the Ways and Means committee
and compelled them to report two bills
prepared by him; one increasing the
tariff upon wool, woolens and lumber
to 60 per cent of what it was in the
McKinley law, and raising the tariff
upon everything else, excepting sugar,
15 per cent above present rates, ang
the other providing for the issue ot
three per cént coin bonds to replenish
the gold reserve whenever the Secreta-
ry of the Treasury deems it necessary,
and of $50,000,000 in three per cent
3-year Treasury certificates, or so much
theréof as the Secretary of the. T'reas-
ury may need from time to time. He
muzzled the objecting republicans who
wanted the bills submitted to a caucus
before being� reportedT to the House,
and lastly te muzzled the House and
had his bills passed, notwithstanding
thatthe democrats did all the protest-
ing they couldT under the Reed rules,
against the railroading of such impor-

| tant legislation through. the . House |.

Without debate. When one of his own
party went to Mr. Reed and asked
that a reasonable time be allowed for
Y | debate on the bills before they were
@ | passed Mr. Reed dismissed him by say-
ing sharply; ~The House isnTt a de-
bating socicty.� In fact, for all practi-
tal purposes there is no House. Its
powers have all been usurped by Mr.
Reed and its only important duties are
to obey his orders. "

But there are neither Reed rules
nor methods in the Senate, to which
these bills have now gone, and the

thoroughly debated before they are
acted upon. It is doubtful whether
either of them can pass the Senate at
without being materially
amended. see

In creating three election committees
to bounce those democrats whose seats

: q : : ~o ee
are being contested by republicans and },

to give those republicans who are hold.

ing seats which are contested by demo-
crats a valid title to their seats, Mr. |

Reed overlooked one thing that is al-
The committee
on elections has. but one room, and
each of the three committees claim the

; right to use it.

The union printers are not 80 glad

aa rules to ~the Government. Printing
Office ag they were. Already four
non-union printers ~have secured posi-
tidus in the building by: passing the: re-

cial line in opposition to them. RussiaT
has not only made itself independent of
the aforesaid, European money kings,
but while doing it has accumulated
$800,000,000 in gold. More
