The house late this afternoon ad-
journed until Monday morning at Q
o'clock, after session marked by
what will probably be considered the
most contemplate of The series of
petty insults which the leaders of the
shattered Bursum machine have di-
rected against the men who have had
the courage to stand out against their
legislative campaign. But the ma
chine realizes its utter defeat. This
has been quite plain for several weeks
through the acts of petty personal re-
taliation which have been attempted
but the action taken today is the
painest evidence yet given of the Gu
rious state of mind to which the
Bulmus-Holt combination has been
reduced
The extreme pettiness of the move
made by the machine managers this
afternoon stands out more sharply be-
cause of the plain injustice Of it. and
because of the fact that this injustice
was shown clearly and forcibly ON the
floor of the house-and by a Demo-
crat The fact is that Holt and Beach,
the men who leyeled the insult, were
forced, not only to modify their state
ments but to retract statements
which to the certain knowledge of the
large number OF people who heard
