not interfere with his interest in the game.

Senator Doliver of Iowa, though ono of
the youngest members of the upper house.
is likely TO be much in the public eye this
session because of his position as active
representative Of the Administrations rate
regulation policy on the senate floor" says
the Boston Transcript correspondent. by
reason Of il-health Senator Cullom of Illl-
nois is likely to take a minor part in the
strenuous work of handling the rate bill.
Among those OF the Interstate Commerce
committee favoring the measure. Mr.. Dolli-
yer comes next. and a position of active
lea dership is conceded to him. He has in
troduced a bill which received the approval
of many who have been prominent in urging
legislation. These indorsers include the In
terstate Commerce commission. whose
members go so far as to indicate that the
Dolliver bill is, IL anything, preferable to
the one they prepared. Judge S. III. Cowan
OF Texas. who represents the law commit
tee of the Interstate Commerce Law con-
vention, spent fortnight here assisting
Mr.. Dolliver in drafting the bill. 1t is now
probable that the Doliver measure will in
| substance at least become the house COM
! mittee measure, being introduced there by
Chairman Hepburn and other Iowa men
Senator Dolliver has for year or more
| made a study OF the problem of government
| relations to transportation interests and OF
the various solutions or attempts at solu-
| tons that have been adopted all over the
world. He has made himself thoroughly
conversant with the subject and with the
| legal and constitutional problems involved
! in 1t. It is known that he Is now engaged
! in preparing a speech on the subject. which
, is expected to rank one of the most not
| able oratorical feats the senate has known
/ in recent years. During experience OF
seven terms in the house Mr. Dolliver
earned place in the front rank OF con-
| gressional debaters. Since his admission to
| the senate he has observed the proprieties
| that senatorial courtesy imposes on new
| members by refraning from much exercise
| of the oratorical talents. Having now by
| reason Of several years service reached the
point where he can with good grace assume
| to occupy the floor when the spirit moves
| him, ii is expected that he will discontinue
the policy of silence which is imposed dur
ing the period of senatorial adolescence and
assume an active part in the legislation to
which he has been giving his time.
