Higgins of a deliberate attempt to wreck the republican party of this state in order to further personal am- bitions.
 ASsemblyman Wadsworth said to- night: 1T believe Governor Higgins statement that President Roosevelt did not dictate my candidacy, and I think Governor Higgins is abundantly able to take care of himself" MT. Wads- worth said he would not attend the conference of republican assemblymen called in this city tomorrow, although he had received an invitation tonight.
 MT. Wadsworth said that he recog- nized that the conference originated with his opponents and added: T was never more confident than l am this minute that l will be elected. I have received assurances that make 1t ab- Solutely certain"
 Assemblyman Merritt tonight gave out a statement in which he said "Governor Higgins is quoted today as still of the opinion that the president will not interfere in the selection of a speaker for the assembly. At the same time he seeks to convey the impres- sion that the election of his nominee MT. Wadsworth, will be especially pleasing to the president, seeking, l suppose to get the benefit of the pres ident's great personality for his candi- date by indirect means.
 "In a previous interview he has ad- mitted that he told me that he did not include me in the list of men, whose election was for any reason inn Droper or not for the best interests of the people of the state. In our in- terview he reserved the right to oppose the nomination of such persons, discus- sing the question generally, but he stated explicitly that this would not occur in my case. Every experienced member of the assembly resents this and has right to resent the naming of MT. Wadsworth for the speaker ship.
 ''The situa tion is unheard of in the history of the political parties of the state. MT. Wadsworth, it is claimed, did not know that he was a candidate Tntil Governor Higgins told him so At that time he was under obliga- tion to Assemblyman Hooker to SUD- port him to the end of the canvass. At this opportune moment, when the fact of his preference was announced to Mir Wadsworth, MT. Hooker by singular coincidence was on the scene. He thereupon conveniently withdrew"

The House Too Far Gone to Continue With
 the Cotton Report Controversy
What the Contestants Would Have Said May be Found the Congressional Record-The President Signs the Canal Emergency Relief Bill.

Washington, Dec 21.-There was but
 tcn-minute session of the house to- day when the holiday adjournment un- til January 4 was taken. Two speech esS one attacking and the oti1er defend ing the cotton crop estimates of the government, were to have been made, but permission was granted to print these speeches in the Record.
 MT. Payne announced: Our oratory seems to have been exhausted" and without extending further invitation to any member for a speech, the ad- journment was declared by the speak CT.
 The cotton crop controversy in the house, which was transferred from the floor with "leave to print" to the Con- gressional Record today, consists of statements by MT. Lowering, of Mas sachusetts, and MT. Burleson. of Tex as. Mir. Lowering attacks accuracy of the estimates of the crop by the de- partment of agriculture in several ways. He alleges that the ginners' report issued by the census bureau yesterday shows that there had been ginned to December 13, in Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Oklahoma 13S,411 bales more of cot ton than the department estimated as the entire crop in this territory and there is from six to eight weeks more of the ginning season. MT. Lover ing makes no criticism of the secre- tary of agriculture personally, nor of the officials under him.
 The reply which MT. Burleson has filed maintains that the difference be- tween the figures of MT. Lowering and those of the department vary simply because of the variation in the weight of bales. He says the department an nounced its estimate of the crop on December 4 in bales of 500 pounds gross weight; that the census bureau makes it's special preliminary reports in running bales" Running bales are those actually turned out by ginners and according to MT. Burleson they have different weight in different states.
 MT. Burleson in his statement all leges that Mr. Lowering has candidly confessed that he has a personal in terest in endeavoring to reduce the price of cotton; that in the beginning of the present cotton season he went on the floor of the New York cotton exchange and predicted that the crop this year would reach 100000 bales. MT. Lowering, MT. Burleson declares, is one of the largest cotton ginners in the south and believed the crop would be large, but he evidently failed to provide himself with sufficient stock for his mills, thence these tears"

We should also thank God for our
city homes in a broad sense. What
the gold setting is to the precious
stone, the halls, the walls, the fire
places, the bedrooms, the sitting and
dining rooms and the parlors are to
the family jewels we call our wives,
our husbands, our fathers and mothers
and children and brothers and sisters.
There is an old motto which we often
hear upon the street. "What is home
without a mother?" We sometimes
hear it fiippantly spoken But l not
only ask this question in reverential
sense. but l ask the same kind of a
question in a broader sense. l ask,
