Reavis' Return
To Tour State
. Starts Gossip
Politician inLincoln Busy Es
timating What Office-Seek-'
crs Are Planning
To Do.
Lincoln, May lS.-Special.) The
arrival of Congressman C. Ff Reavts
iri Nebraska next week to deliver a
series of commencement addresses in
high schools and colleges carries
something besides a treat for the
hopeful young people. '
In political circles the advent of
the Falls City congressman in Ne
braska at this time and the mission
which will take him to various parts
of the etate is looked upon as a
"feeler" of his strength in the United
States senatorial race to be staged in
Nebraska in a short time.
During these trips Congressman
Reavis will have ample opportunity
to; meet and discuss politics with
"the boys" who handle .politics in
various parts of the state. He will
learti whether they are anxious to
have him enter the race or are pas
sively indifferent.
Meantime, down at Dunbar, Neb.,
there is a.dniggist, 'Wilber Annis,
and at-Lincoln, an attorney, Walter
E. Anderson, who probably will be
watching- with anxiety the outcome
of the' Reavis pilgrimage over, the
state.. .'Aiihis,' a former member of
! h .. tolalatnrp. is 'certain to enter
the race for congress in the First
district tf Keavis gets into me sena
torial race. And, it is expected, that
AniWtnn tnrakpr nf the lower house
at the last session, also will endeavor
to ascertain how much the voters
think- of hiin outside of Lancaster
county.
The Bryan-Hitchcock row is the
only bit of democratic politics dis
cussed in Lincoln now. The Hitch
cock faction is watching every move
that Charles W. Bryan makes in the
spectacular political row in Lincoln
city politics here.
The possibility of Bryan winning
here and maybe becoming a candi
date for governor two years hertce
and William Jennings Bryan going
into a-contest for United States sen
ator does more to disturb the com
placency of the Hitchcock followers
than any other political proposition
in the state.

Senate Military Affairs Com
mittee Votes to Report Bill
Carrying $333,000,000.
Washington, May 18. The senate
military affairs committee voted
unanimously to report the army bill
carrying $335,000,000 and providing
for an army of a minimum strength
of 170,000 men. The full commit
tee, in passing on the bill, cut 5,000
from, the strength advocated by its
sub-committee. The bill, as passed
by the house, would provide for ai:
average strength of 150,000, ' which,
it was said, would mean a reduc
tion to 126,000 some time in the next
fiscal year. The present strength is
230,000.
Secretary Weeks had asked the
committee to provide for an army of
at least 175,000 and for an appropri
ation equal to that provided in the
bill passed by the last congress,
but vetoed by President Wilson.
That bill carried $346,000,000.
Outside of increases in pay and
subsistence in the house bill, the
principal increase vetoed by the sen
ate committee was an addition of
$300,000 in the sum available for vo
cational training, making the total
to be recommended to the scnae for
that purpose $1,500,000.

You have at this time an excellent opportunity to secure two awards
