Excerpt from The History of Legislative Methods in the Period: Before 1825 It is the purpose of this work to trace the growth of the committee systems in the lawmaking bodies of the colonies and states from about 1750 to 1790, and in the federal House of Representatives from the beginning to 1825. During these years the committee form of organ ization was so firmly established that it has become the distinguishing feature of the American legislature. In view of this fact it seemed to be worth while to put in accessible form the more important steps in that early development. Matters of procedure are touched upon only in so far as they throw light on the main theme. In the processes of legislation it is difficult to separate completely the operations of the regular committees from the activities of the party caucus, and the following chapters discuss both types of organization, the formal, provided for by the rules, and the informal, supplied by the political party. An attempt is made to Show how the colonial legislatures were directed by party leaders, how the caucus and the executive influenced the work of the federal House, and also how certain arrangements made primarily to facilitate legislation have afiected some of the larger aspects of constitutional history. This study was undertaken 'at the suggestion of Professor Allen Johnson, of Yale University, and the material in Chapters I to VII, inclusive, with the excep tion of a part of Chapter II, was worked out in the form of a doctoral dissertation under his direction in 1913. The writer is very glad to acknowledge his indebtedness to him for helpful advice and criticism at that time. Those chapters have subsequently been largely rewritten.

For most bills in American legislatures, the issue of turf—or which committee has jurisdiction over a bill—can make all the difference. Turf governs the flow and fate of all legislation. In this innovative study, David C. King explains how jurisdictional areas for committees are created and changed in Congress. Political scientists have long maintained that jurisdictions are relatively static, changing only at times of dramatic reforms. Not so, says King. Combining quantitative evidence with interviews and case studies, he shows how on-going turf wars make jurisdictions fluid. According to King, jurisdictional change stems both from legislators seeking electoral advantage and from nonpartisan House parliamentarians referring ambiguous bills to committees with the expertise to handle the issues. King brilliantly dissects the politics of turf grabbing and at the same time shows how parliamentarians have become institutional guardians of the legislative process. Original and insightful, Turf Wars will be valuable to those interested in congressional studies and American politics more generally.
