SENATOR IS IN TROUBLE BY IMPOSING SILENCE Tells Eight Hundred Persons In Great Confidence That He Will Save the Cattle Men. Washington, June 27.—Senator John E. Kendrick of Wyoming, is in a peck of troule. . In the first place he is a Democrat and that is a source of trouble in a Re pulican administration elected by a popular majority of eleven millions* He also attempted to lead not only his Democratic colleagues but his Re publican ones as well into supporting a packers’ bill partly fathered by him self. He was to be the great savior of the cattle and sheep men from the ravages of the Chicago meat packers. But just as he was about to put it oyer the ground slipped from under him and the safe and sane House bill regulating the packers was adopted as a substitute by a majority of three votes and Kendrick was left in the lurch. But the chief reason for the peck of trouble is that he wrote a confiden tial letter to eight hundred persons and instructed each of them to keep it a state secret. He wrote this letter to bankers and stock men with the evident intention of interesting them in the passage of a bill proposed by a Republican Senator. He, a Democat in a Republican Senate, thought to interest these men in a bill proposed by him authorizing the War Finance Corporation to lend $50, 000,000 for the relief of the live stock Charter No. 3424.

Subscribed and sworn to before me this 6th day of July, 1921. W. J. HAMMOND, Notary Public. My Commission Expires December 1, 1926. Correct—Attest: Edward M. Gallagher, T. F. Birmingham, H. J. Birmingham, Directors. interests. “As a member of the Committee on Banking and Currency I have been actively interested in such bills as have come before us looking toward relief for our live stock and farm in terests,” he says. “The Bursum bill, among others before our committee, provided for the employment of the earnings of the federal reserve banks as loans to the live stock proudcers. It seems to me that the plan could not fail to be beneficial to the live stock interests if put into effect and the money loaned with as little delay as possible, conditioned of course, upon necessry discretion and good judgment as to security.” NOT FOR HER Huston Post: An old dame at a railway station asked a porter where she could" get her ticket. The man pointed in the direction of the ticket office. “You can get it there,” he said, “through the pigeonhole.” “Get away with you, 'idiot!” she ex claimed. “How can I get through that little hole? I ain’t no pigeon!” EDITORIAL GRAFT Birmingham Age - Herald: “Ho hum!” sighed the editor of the Chig gersville Clarion, as he glanced over a poem, pinched off the stamp inclosed for its return, if not available, and threw the manuscript into his waste basket. “Aren’t you going to send back that poem to the author?” asked the visitor who had dropped in for,a little chat. “Nope,” said the editor. “I charge the stamp for reading it.” WELL MIXED Detroit Free Press: William Lyon Phelps, the brilliant occupant of the English chair at Yale, has added a new mixed metaphor to his large and amusing collection. This addition is from one of the novels of W. L. Ge’orge, the English writer whose re cent American lecture tours failed so lamentably. Mr. George’s gorgeously mixed metaphor runs: “The cloud that tried to stab their happiness was only a false rumor whose bitter taste could not splinter the radience nor dim the effervescence o: their joy” EDITOR LEAVES TOWN. Capper’s Weekly: In a recent letter to The Breeder’s Gazette, Mr. F. M. Woods, of Lancaster county, Nebras ka told how a Nebraska printer got an auction sale and an account of a wed ding mixed together. The resulting article, wrote Mr. Woods, read like this: “Married at the home of the bride’s township one mile north and two miles east of Mr. and Mrs. Jojin Jones, highly respected residents of Thurs day, Jan, 27, Miss Ethel Drinkwater by the Rev. 18 head of Shorthorns con sisting of four bridesmaids dressed in pale blue and carrying calves by their sides. They had tulle veils * * * sired by the noted Kentucky jack Bombina 3d. Also forty-six head of hogs, in cluding the groom’s father from North Dakota, where he is engaged in mis sionary work, and is immuned by the double process. These shotes are thrifty, and all relatives of the bride and groom. They all gathered in the spacious dining room after the cere mony, and partook of 300 bushels of seed oats, 1,000 bushels of com, 10 large sacks of millet and alfalfa. The bride is the youngest daughter of one trusty incubator, capacity 600 eggs, one Jno. Deere five-room cottage and a trip to Omaha, after which they drew 10 jler cent interest from -date.' Free lunch at noon.” CALLED DOWN. Birmingham Age-Herald: “That new floorwalker gets on my nerves,” said Estelle, at the handkerchief counter. ~ “Mine, too,” said Bertha, the gloves saleslady. “Thinks because a poor girl has to earn her own living, she’s a slave, yeah, a slave. I gave him a piece of my mind this morning.” , Have You Tried It? Everybody is talking about the delicious Ice Cream we have j i been surving at our fountain. Why shouldn't it be good?
