U DAILY - :1 Bland Will Keep Up 11.. Fight I111 111. Forces :1 Vote on His Bill. THE RULES MAY BE CHANGED Democratic Members Culling For a. Caucus to Consider the Question of Counting Members Present and Not Voting In Order to Obtain a Quorum. WASHINGTON. Feb. Ski—The deadlock in the house on the silver bill shows no signs of breaking, and the silver leaders are ve- hement in the assertion that the struggle will not be abandoned until they forccu vote upon the measure and put the mem- bers upon record. The temper of. these men may be inferred from Mr. Bland’s taunt Saturday when he found it impossi- ble to get a quorum. He said, “It is quite evident that the bondholders have control over this country, and I therefore move that the house adjourn.” His motion was promptly carried. Strenuous efforts were made early in the day by the silver men to bring about a compromise by which the present deadlock could be broken and a vote on the silver bill could be reached. Afters. conference among leading silver men Representative Bailey of Texas communidated to the lead- ers of the Republican side a proposition by which they were to receive all the time they wished for their speeches on the. pend- ing bill if in return they would agree to fix some time in the i'utur.r when the vote would be taken. Had this proposition been accepted the allied strength of the sil- ver men and the Republicans would have been sufficient to fix a time for a vote in spite of opposition of the antisilver Demo- crats. But Mr. Bailey failed to get favorable consideration for his proposition. On the contrary, he learned that a filibuster was to proceed with out any effort to disguise it. He reported this to his associates, and the efforts to agree on a time for a vote were abandoned. Shortly after this motions to adjourn and demands for the ayes and nays began, and the filibuster was under way. This shows a radical change in the situation since last \Vednesday, when Mr. ~ Bland and his associates felt so confident they would succeed and rejected all propo- sitions from the other side. ‘Mr. Culberson, one of the most conserva- tive silver men, says that the bill will be kept before the house until disposed of. There was not a. thought of giving place to an appropriation bill or any other meas- ure. Moving For a Change of Rules. The call for a caucus of Democrats to agree upon a rule for recording members present but not voting in order to make a quorum is growing in favor. The call now bears the names of. 122 Democrats and has been handed to Representative Holman, the chairman of the caucus. Members say that this matter must be settled within their party as soon as the Bland bill has been disposed of. Representative Paynter of Kentucky, who started the call, has comes the objections of many members to his draft of a rule for recording those pres- ent and not voting without fining them. This rule incorporates a new principle that the affirmative votes on a call must be a majority Of those officially recorded both as voting and as present and not voting in order that the vote shall be a. legal one to decide the pending question. The proposed rule is as follows: But should a quorum fail to vote and the point be made that no quorum had voted there shall be a. call of the house, and the yeas and nays on the pending question shall at the same time be ordered. The clerk shall call the roll, and each member as he answers to his name or is brought before the house under the proceed- mgs of the call of the house shall vote on the pending question. If the member fails to vote or refuses when present to answer to his name, then any mem- ber can announce to the speaker that a mem- ber, giving his name, is present and failed to vote or answer to his name on such call, there. upon the speaker shall direct the clerk to note the name of such member on the journal as present. If those voting on the question and these do. clinlng to vote or answer to their names shall together make a majority of the house, then the speaker shall declare that a quorum is con- stituted and the pending question shall be de- cided, providing the affirmative vote is a ma- jority of those voting and lhose present and not voting. ' Three propositions for a new rule have been drafted which will flndgsupporters in the caucus—that devised by Journal Clerk Crutchfield for finding members one day’s pay, the resolution by Representative De Armond of. Missouri for a fine of $50 and the latest plan of Representative Paynter. But none of these can be ‘made effective for breaking the present deadlock, because the caucus will not meet until the Bland bill is disposed of in some way. Members seem to recognize the fact that a change of rules could not be brought about or a special order adopted in this sit- uation, for the same factions which oppose the seigniorage bill would antagonize any lever to push it through. Any plan which was a plain indorsement of the Reed rul- ings would receive Republican support, but Democrats would break‘ away from such a proposal. Representative Outhwaite of Ohio, who is a member of the committee on rules, says that no applications have been made to the committee to devise a special order to lead the house from its present entanglement.

Much is written at the present day about the care and feeding of infants by people whose only capability for dealing with the subject is a fertile brain, and whose only aim is to appear in print; every mother knows how unsatisfactory and fallaclous such advice is when she attempts to follow it. How to feed the baby is the greatest problem met with in the happy state oi motherhood, and upon its solution depends the health, the happiness and the life of the child. I! the mother is able to nurse her child, the question or feeding is practically settled; if she is not, she should be guided by those who have had successful experi- ence in feeding babies and not allow herself to experiment with different foods. There are scores of artificial foods offered for sale. but. the best is none too good for the baby. Eminent authorities who have thoroughly investigated the sub ect of infant feeding, and scientists who ave analyzed infant foods, unite in pronouncing Mellln’s Food to be the only perfect substitute for mother’s milk. It is palatable, nourishing and strengthening; the weakest stomach will retain and digest it, and the puniest child will thrive upon it beyond the mother’s fondest expectations. For convalescents. consum tives. dyspep- tics and the 9. ed, Mellin’s ood is also of incalculable va no. It is a food, note. medi- cine, and the system receives the nourish- ment it demands for its daily needs. For those severely ill Mellin's Food will sustain the failing strength and promote a speeedy recovery when convalescence has been established. 9 GIVE THE BABY O FOR ll. IN FANTS \ 1 "m TH : our .
