Two democratic leaders, DeArmond
of Missouri and Williams, got so inter
ested in politics at the national capital
last week, that soou after adjournment
of the House, unable to settle an ar
gument in which they were forcefully
engaged, the word "iiar" passed, blows
followed and DeArmond's nose was pnt
out of commission, while Williams
face WAS covered with the red corpus
Gle just as if he were in Mississippi
shouting for liberty.
Commenting on this fracas the Brook
lyn Eagle says
When in the course of human events
it becomes necessary for a Congress
man from Mississippi to collide with
. Congressman from Missouri, de-
ceut respect for the susceptibilities of
Missouri requires that all born Missouri
ians should wish that the man from that
state should come out at the top. We
regret TO be unable to announce that re-
suit as fact.
Mr.. Williams landed some, two, three"
on Mr.. DeArmond. Mr.. DeArmond
Agriculturally used his finger nails as a
plow Oh the fertile and mobile counte-
nance OF Mr.. Williams, and claims "to
have won by scratch" No umpire or
referee has made decision, but there
issgeneral impression that Mr.. Williams
won whatever honors are to be credited
to the collision.
Mr.. DeArmond inflicted the first af
front when he called Mr.. Williams a liar.
Mr.. Williams resented that with three
right-arm straights. Mr.. DeArmond
retaliated with tactics in which cat is
his equal aud chisken-hawk his su-
perior.
What both congressman need is con-
troll Of their tempers. What Mr.. DE
Armoud needs is submission to the arts
Of a manicure. The House of Repre-
sentatives is to be congratulated that it
adjourned before this collision occurred.
1t escaped spectacle, but it avoided a
scandal. Both the fighters should "make
up" Each should declare that, if he
did or said anything he is sorry for he
is glad Of it,
