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

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.” ,
