SAYS Washington correspondent: People
with curious memories may recall that Repre-
sentative William Henry Harrison Cowles of
North Carolina acquired a reputation for one
day only as the solitary democrat who refused
TO vote for ex-Speaker Carlisle for speaker at
the opening of congress. 1t is interesting to
learn that Cowles has been in a congressional
coventry ever since. Democratic members
seated near him by the operation of the lottery
OF places have gradually got away from him by
taking the seats of other democrats who have
been sick or have been turned out, while their
places have been taken by the new republican
representatives, so that now Cowles, away off
in the southeastern corner of the democratic
side, is surrounded by republicans"
