is ABLE TO WALK FROM ONE
BUILDING TO THE OTHER
AND DOES so.
Saws Autos Are Useless Expense and
That Senators Should Be in Their
Seats During Session.

WASHINGTON, May T. Senator
Bailey. of Texas, besides having won
a reputation as a great orator and ex-
FOUNDER of constitutional law, once at
tracted attention to himself by an
nouncing that he never, never would
wear a dress suit.
After nearly 20 years service in
Washington as a member of the house
and as senator, he has got over that
and occasionally attends evening en-
tertainments in conventional attire.
Now, however, he is becoming con-
spicuous in another and character
istic direction. He is the only SEN
ator WnO insists upon walking from
the capitol to his rooms in the new sem
ate office building. He absolutely re-
fuses to ride in the automobiles which
have been provided and which whisk
passengers through the 300yard SUBJ
way connecting the two buildings in
less than a minute.
In a recent speech on the floor of the
senate, Mr. Bailey announced his con-
tempt for the automobile and his re-
spect for and faith IN that noble ami
NAL, the horse. But it is not on that
ground that he refuses to make use of
the senatorial electric cSnveyances. He
does not want to substitute horses and
carriages for the automobiles.
Il never use those machines" said
Mr. Bailey the other day, waving his

weather l have got wet by rain three
and four times a day in making that
journey.
But now the government has gone
to the expense of putting up one of
the finest Office buildings in the coun-
try and has constructed this fine. bril-
liantly lighted subway or tunnel,
through which we can walk protected
from the elements. This subway alone
cost $4,000 and | can see no good
reason for spending more of the public
money on these automobiles, which
cost nearly $4,000 apiece besides the
hire of the men to run them, for us to
ride in now that I'VE have a covered
way. So l walk.
LAS for the office building itself"
continued the senator, L don't begrudge
the money 1t is an expensive struc-
ture, it is true, but it is there for all
time and serves a useful purpose"
1t should be said in defense of the
automobiles, so sighted by Senator
Bailey, that there are two of the21
and that the object of installing them
was to enable senators who happen to
be in their offices at the moment when
an unexpected vote is being taken in
the senate to get quickly over to the
capitol before the rOll-call is cOnclud-
ed. But Mr.. Bailey thinks that SEN
atOrs ought to be in their seats when
legislation isl in progress
All of which goes to show that Mr..
Bailey has ideas on other things be-
sides the constitution.

ten what is pronounced by eminent
authorities the strongest drama ever
given the public.
This powerful play, "The Mills OF

prove the dramatic event of unusual
Importance.
A large company composed of thirty
five people, headed by Mr.. Ralph Rus

n lon OF o l.,
life of fence posts has found cheap
and simple methods of preserving
them in a sound condition for an in
definite time, even though they are
the poorest and naturally least dur
able woods
Decay is not a simple process like
the crumblng Of stone or the rusting
of iron. 1t is caused by low forms of
plant life which thoroughly perme-
ate the wood, discolor it and cause
it to become disconnected and rot
ten To preserve the timber in a
thoroughly sound condition, it is
only necessary to render the wood
unfit for the growth of these organ
isms. This is done by injecting into
il substances poisonous to plant life.
One of the most widely used pre-
servatives is crcOSOte, one of the by
products of coal tar. When it is in
jected into the wood, decay will be
retarded Indefinitely and an old-fiCld
pine or cottonwood fence post
when properly treated will easily
give a life of twenty years or lon
ger Such a preServative treatment
costs about ten cents per post. The
creosote can be applied by painting
the wood with brush or dipping it
into the liquid, but much better re-
suits will be obtained if it is actually
injected into the wood instead of
merely coating the outside If the
brush" method, or painting, is used,
the creosotC should be applied at a
temperature of about 1870 degrees f.
Two coats should be given at least
twenty-four hours apart. If the posts
are dipped directly into the preserva-
tive, the crcosote should be heated
TO about the same temperature. The
best results of all can be obtained
by first heating the posts in a bath
transferring them quickly to a bath
of creosote at a lower temperature,
or else shutting off the heat and al

WHAT Is DEMOCRATIC.

The democrats who have voted
against free lumber have:
Voted to repudiate the national
platform of the democratic party;
Voted TO encourage the destruc-
ton of our forests;
Voted to raise the price of one of
the chief necessaries of life
Voted to tax a material that en-
ters into a multitude of industries.
and thus to place an unnecessary
burden upon these industries:
Voted to tax the people of the
whole country for the benefit of a
comparatively few owners of timber
lands, and
Voted to tax a majority of their
own constituents for the benefit of
a minority of those constituents.
To cast such a vote a democrat
must have arguments that have not
yet been given to the public and
must be prepared to present these
arguments to his constituents.
The Commoner will give space up
to two thousand Words to any dem
ocratic senator or member of con-
gress who desires to present an ar
gument in favor of a duty on lumber,
provided ne will in his article ans
wer the following questions;
First, Is a platform binding?
Second, Is it wise to encourage
the devastation of our forests?
Third, VIII the country as a whole
be benefited by a tariff on lumber,
and if so, how?
Fourth, How many of his constit-
uents produce lumber as compared
with the number of his constituents
who use lumber?
Fifth, VIII he give the names of
the men who have by letter or in
person urged him to vote for the
