Adams Votes For Benson

Representative S. d. Adams, of
this district cast. the vote of this dis
trict for Senator A. w. Benson for
the short term of U. S. Senator
which expires March 4th next. This
is the expiration of the term of Ex
Senator Burton, who is now in Jail
at Ironton, Mo. There were Io
Democratic representatives who
voted for Benson for the short term.
We hope that anyone who may
have thought that Mr.. Acams would
not not have supported Republi-
for Senator, will please disabuse
your mind at once Adams would
have supported any Republican for
U. S. Senator who was free from
corporate influence. He is not a
"yellar dog" Democrat, would have
voted for Bristow or any other
s'square deal" Republican. Any
Republicans who supported Mr..
Adams at the recent election need
never regret having done so.
Bale Waggoner voted for w. R.
Stubbs for Senator. Bale is a rail-
road attorney and we were some
what surprised that he did not vote
for Curtis.
