DEMOCRATS TO CAUCUS.

Elsewhere in this issue is a call from
Representative Tolton. of Beaver for a
meeting OF Democratic members OF the
legislature. Although they are in n
hopeless minority. the Democrats can
exercise coasideraO;e influence by act
ing together. and fl is important that
they should preserve the party organi-
zation and lay their plans for the most
effective action on party matters dur
Ing the session.
With an unwieldy majority i'm both
houses, and IN view Of the questions
coming up on which division is likely.
the Republicans are not going TO find
everything plain sailing throughout the
session. Nor is the Republican hold
on the people so entirely established
that they can hope TO continue IN pow
er Indefinitely. BY wise. conservative
action. a strong organization OF their
limited number and aggressive activity
and watchfulness in the proceedings.
the Democratic can exert an influence
cut Of all proportion to their numbers.
Moreover they can prepare the way for
future compaigns and help preserve
The party's state organization by acting
together now.
Mr.. lotions call is well advised and
should meet with a response from ev-
cry Democrat in the Legislature

:
With the election Of :. II. Love as
president of The senate and II. :. Jo-
scph a speaker Of the house. the Re
publican caucus has made q fairly good
start FOR the Legislative session. Mr.
Love has been stalwart party man
without being extensively partisan in
his attitude on public questions. ne has
al cnviable reputation for square deal
ing IN his relations with public affairs.
ne has had experience and his indie
pendcncc OF the Smoot machine is not

recognition OF the fact that even so
powerful an organization as Shoots
cannot afford TO ignore the discomfort
within the party lines.
Mr.. Joseph is rcd-headed-a fact
mentioned only as an index of his ag-
gressiveness and energy. he has 4

promises to contribute more or less TO
the gaieties Of the winter.

MAGAZINES FOR JANUARY

POPULAR" Strange Cases Of q Medi-
cal Free-Lance' is the title Of new Sc
ries of short stories in the January Pop
ular Magazine. There is something I'M
canny about the title. something mag
netic and YOU can't help dipping into the
story 10 see what happens Judging from
the first "Case'-"The Musical Jaclxal''-
this ought to be one of the most attractive
series that the Popular has ever published
and this is saying a great deal. for the
Popular manages to get the kind OF fic-
ton that is always interesting. Another
strong feature in the January issue is the
new serial by Arthur Paterson author Of
"A Man Of His Word. The Daughter of
the Nez PerceS." etc. 1t is called "A Son
Of the Plains" and, as the title suggests
deals with the life of a cowboy. The
opening inStalment, which appears this
month. indicates that Mr.. Paterson has
produced a remarkably good story. 1t is
the policy of the Popular TO present
complete novel with each issue of the
magazine. and III the January number
the novel is by George Bronson Howard
whose former stories have received much
flattering comnendatOn. His newest
work is called Adventures Extraordin-
ary.T and details the experiences of
