Congressman Frank Lawler of Illinois,
was reelected by a greatly increased ma
jority. The newspapers poked a good deal
of fun at Mr.. Lawler, but he appears to be
able to get there, while smarter and more
polished men fail. He is said to have a very
persuasive way of talking to voters, and if
the following is true, he knows how to
manage congressman: On one occasion last
session he asked unanimous consent to call
up bill to pay small sum to a working
man, who had boon disabled while working
on a government building. Several obiec-
tons were made, and Mr.. LAWYER, walking
down the aisle TO the front of the speakers
position, faced the House, and demanded
to know who had objected to a small but
meritorious measure he said here was an
opportunity for members to do something
practical for the worbingmen, and he pro-
posed by roll-call to see who were the
workingmen's true friends. The roll-call
developed no opposition to considering the
bill. Probably this little incident had
something to do in increasing MIR. LAWYERS

farmer. is supposed to have been murdered and
his house robbed. on Sunday afternoon, say
that the coroner's jury to-day returned verdict
of suicide. While this verdict is not generally
accepted final. it based upon the fact
that some clothes of Gnthrie's which were miss
ing were found in clubhouse. and the money
of which it was thought he was robbed was dis
covered in a safe in the bedroom wnere the deed
was committed. This, and the fact that he was

lieve that he committed suicide as that he
murdered. The case will be further investi-
gated.
