WHEN REED RUED
And Raised a Row In Congress
by Counting a Quorum.
HOW THE QUESTION AROSE.
The Issue That Moved the "Czar" to
Overturn Both Democratlo and Re
publican Precedents and Put the
House In an Uproar.
In his "Lite of Tboinns Brackett
Reed," popularly knowu as "Czar"
Heed, Samuel \V. MeCall relates how
the great question of the quorum
that was counted arose. The famous
Issue came up shortly after Beed's re
election as speaker In December, 1SS9.
The Republicans hat so narrow a ma
jority that business would have been
llfflcult even without the filibustering
»f the opposition.
* On Jan. 29, 1S90, Dalzetl reported
from the committee on elections an
sward of a contested seat to a Repub
Ucan.
"Crisp raised the question of consid
eration. and only 103 members respond
ed, or two less than a quorum. Not
merely was it beyond the power of the
Republicans to produce a quorum at
that time, but It appeurtd equally cer
tain that they would not be able to
produce one at any time during that
congress.
"Reed had carefully planned to meet
the emergency which had long seemed
to him Inevitable and bad determined
upon bis course. But the element of
doubt was whether his party associ
ates In the house would sanction the
radical course whlcfc be meditated. He
was Intending to overturn not merely
Democratic precedents, but Republican
precedents as well.
"Times almost without number the
(Mdm-s of his own narty had main
j ta/hed thai* iui' con.sutiitioimr quorum
was to be determined by the roll call
and not by tbe bodily presence of
members. The position bad never se
| riously been questioned that if a ma
jority of the representatives tailed to
answer to their names on the calling
of tbe roll there was no quorum pres
ent for the transaction of business,
even if every member might actually be
present in the hall of the house. • • *
"Instead of ordering the roil to be
called again Reed calmly said. The
i chair directs the clerk to record the
! names of the following members pres
j eut and refusing to vote.' Oe then
proceeded to name a number of Dem
ocrats and among them Carlisle and
j other Democratic leaders who were
present when their names were called
j and who refmined from voting.
"At once the house was in an up
! roar. There was an explosion as vlo
] lent as was ever witnessed in a legis
j lative body The speaker's recital of
the names was interrupted by passion
I ate remonstrance. Ills course was de
nounced as revolutionary. For a con-^
sidernble lime the tumuli stopped the
business oI (lie house. I!eed remain
ed unruffled, and when the noise would
for a moment subside be would add
to his count of Democrats present and
not voting
"One member ot much dignity, but
not conspicuous for sense of humor,
gravely arose with a book Ifl-his hand
| and said, 'i deny your right, Mr.
: Speaker, to count me as present, and
1 desire to read from the parlia
mentary law on that subject' Reed
raised a hearty laugh by coolly saying
in reply and with his customary
drawl: The chair is making a state
ment ot fact that the gentleman from
Kentucky is present. Does he deny
it?'
"After the noise had subsided suffi
ciently for tbp speaker to make a con
nected stateuieut be proceeded to state
the question to the house: Tbe chair
treats this subject in orderly fashion
and will submit bis opinion to the

makes the throw, wafts five sweet
