EX-SENATOR UNDER CLOUD

Marion Butler, former United States senator
from North Carolina, who is accused by Con
gresham Lilley of being hired by the Electric
Boat Company to influence legislation, has had a
somewhat checkered career. He was studying
law at the University of North Carolina when
his father died and he had to return home to
run the farm and attend to the bringing up of his
younger brothers and sisters. For three years
he also taught in neighboring academy. Then
he became a politician and a newspaperman by
joining the Farmers Alliance and starting two
papers, the Clinton Caucasian and the Raleigh
Caucasian. This proved stepping stone to
the state senate which he reached in 1890. The
following year he became president of the Farm
ers' Alliance and in 1894 elected president

Mr. Sulzer of New York offered a

It IS easily twelve years since

department Of labor with place In

that in a wild burst OF devotion to
the interests Of labor the republican
party created The Department OF
