Senator LaFo1lette's
Prophetic Words.

When Senator Robert LaFollette
.stook his seat in the United states
senate some four years ago. the most
a of his Republican colleagues treated
him with that marked Indifference
which is so characteristic OF the old
members of that body when they sur
veg n new man in their midst. IL was
customary then for new senator's 10

at least until some OF the older
heads had signified the usual permits
sion for them to be heard.
but when the doughty little senator
from Wisconsin entered that august
body he exhibited the same indiffer-
cnce toward his fellow senator's that
they had taken pains to make ap-
parent on their part toward him. IL
they were indifferent. he was more
$50. and what was even more repre-
hensib,e in him was his announced
intention OF making a speech without
even waiting for their permission to
90 so.
When Senator LaFollette arose to
make bis speech, many Of the Re
publican senators-true to that spirit
Of snobbery with which so many OF
them were permeated-arose. one by

Gentlemen of the jury: The best

reared with loving care may prove
ungrateful. Those who are nearest
and dearest to US, those whom we
trust with our happiness and our

A mans reputation may be sacrificed

The people who are prone to fall on

The one absolutely unself1sh friend
that man can have in this selfish
world, the one that never deserts
him. the one that never proves I'M
grateful or treacherous. is his dog.
A mans dog stands by him in pros
perfty and poverty, in health and in
sickness. He will sleep on the cold
ground, where the wintry winds
blow and the snow drives fiercely, if
only he may be near his masters
side. He will kiss the hand that has
no food to offer; he will lick the
wounds and sores that come in en-
counter with the roughpess OF the
world. He guards the sleep of his
pauper master as If he were a
prince.
when all other friends desert he
remains. When riches take wings
and reputation falls to pieces he is
as constant in his love as the sun IN
its journey through the heavens. If
fortune drives the master forth an
outcast in the world, friendless and
homeless, the faithful dog asks no
higher privilege than that of accom-
panying him, to guard against dan
ger, to fight against his enemies. And
when the last scene of all comes, AMI
death takes the master in its en-
brace, and his body is laid away in
the cold ground, no matter If all
other friends pursue their way, there

He made no reference to the evil

he finished the Judge and jury were

out, but soon returned with a YER

dog was shot; and it was said that
some of the jurors wanted to hang

Dogs on Exhibition.

Dog shows have been held recent

been a great success. In the east
they are the big society events and
are growing in popularity in that re-
spect in the west.
There are few people who, at some
time or another, have not possessed
or had in the family some sort of a
dog and formed an attachment for it
which, when severed, caused deep
grief. 1t made little difference wheth-
er the dog was a mastiff, Newfound-

BY EUGENE N. Foss, M. c.

INote-As democratic candidate for
congress in the recent Fourteenth Mas
sachusetts district election, Mr.. Foss
changed a republican majority of 1920
| in 1905 into a democratic majority OF
5,640.-Editor1
Boston, Mass, April 2.-The fight in
the Fourteenth district was made on
national issues and the verdict of the
people can only be regarded as a re-
volt against the administration in
Washington.
It is now asserted that the person
atty of the candidates played large
part in the result. The truth is there
from personalities.
1 did not win the fight. The
platform on which l stood; the
issues which were presented to
the people; a widespread determine
ton to express dissatisfaction with ex-
listing conditions, all contributed to
win the fight for me. 1t was not until
the polls were closed, the ballots count
ed and a remarkable and emphatic
vote Of lack Of confidence registered
that we heard the suggestion that my
own popularity and the unpopularity of
my opponent were responsible for the
result.
In order that I may effectively dis
pose OF the post norton assertions
that the contest was local to the Four
teenth district and could not in any
way have a bearing on congressional
elections in other sections of the coun-
try, let me outline the platform on
which 1 stood from the moment of my
nomination until the polls closed.
Briefly, it was as follows:
Free raw materials for our indus
tries.
Untaxed food supplies for our peo-
pie.
Lower duties on the necessarfes of
life
An income tax, that large part of
the burden of the cost of government
may fall on those best able to
bear it. =
Reciprocity with Canada and our
best customers.
Repeal of section Of the Aldrich
act that forces tariff wars and retalia-
ton.
Direct nominations.
Conservation of our natural re-
sources.
Anti-Cannonism.
This platform is in no manner local
to the Fourteenth Massachusetts dis
trtct. 1t involves issues which will be
presented to the voters in every sec
ton of the United States this fall.
The platform on which / made my
campaign is not new one with me.
1t is practically the same tliHt urged
years ago. 1t has broadsned some
what in the course Of events, but the
changes have not been important. 1t
would be better to say. perhaps. that

SCHOOLS ARE HIT
Supreme Court Decides They Are En-
gagged In Interstate Com
merce.

Washington, April 5.-Among 9TH
ed decisions by the United States SUI
preme court yesterday, that body
held that the business of a CORE
spondence school. with pupils in var
tous states, was interstate commerce,
and upheld an act of Arkansas pro-
hibiting the drumming up of business
by physicians and hotel keepers on
trains in that state.
The court was divided on the
question of whether the penalty for
violation of the 2S-hour law for the
shipment of live stock shall be as
sessed on the separate shipment, as
urged by the government, or on the
train load, as a unit, as contended
for by the Baltimore & Ohio South
western railroad and will hear new
arguments in the case next August.
The court decided the case of the
Southwestern Oil company against
the state of Texas in favor of the
state, thus upholding the constitu-
tionality of the Texas law, which
fixes tax of per cent on the gross
receipts from the sale of oil, nap
tina, etc.

Women's Effort to Elevate the
Drama.

Drama.
Women are rallying TO raise the dra-
ma in the United States by systematic
encouragement under the banners Of
the new Drama club which now has
members representing 165 women's
clubs of Chicago and vicinity 1t is the
hope that before long the organization
will be national in scope, with a large
central organization, with local chap
tiers in every city and town in the
country. The main work at first will
be the arrangement of study programs
for the local chapters and the sending
out of advice and information to all
Its members.
Mrs. A Starr Best, chairman of tho
organization meeting, says that the i'm
provement Of the stage is matter Of
educating the public. However much
we may dislike to admit it." she says,
''the stage at present is on a strictly
commercial basis, and seems likely to
continue so. We can improve condi-
tons only by educating the public de-
mand. The manager Of the theatre has
only the box Office by which to feel
the public pulse. The great public
accepts and tries to enjoy what is
given it. If all the women's clubs of
the country were pledged to support
good plays and to the reading of plays,
outside the theatre, studying them
carefully for their structure and their
literary value, there would be mark
ed difference in the character of plays
presented on the stage. Dramatic con-
ditions in America are far worse than
In other countries. 1t is time the wo-
men rallied to the relief of the coun-
try's stage. We should appreciate the
power for good which the drama pos
sesses, but we should also be keenly
alive to the danger inherent in the
powerful influence of the stage on the
public If that influence is not ennobling
and uplifting. Concerted effort through
the country will be great aid in elm
mating the objectionable from our
theatres"
