Mason City Dec. l9.--There seems to
be little hull in the congressional pro-
ceedings friends of d. d. Murphy ex-
poets to make against Congressman
Gilbert n. Haugen. However, your
correspondent has it direct from Chair
man F.. A. O'Connor that the contest is
now going on and the procedure will
soon be made public The legal phases
have confused lawyers, newspaper men
and many others. There is not to be
a recount Of the ballots at the present
| time possibly may never be. Mr..
Mr.. Haugen is congressman until next
March. anyway The term to which
Mr.. Murphy's friends claim his election
does not begin until December. 1911 1t
| is then when the contest will come up.
Congress Is the sole judge of who
| shall constitute its membership. People
are generally aware that the complexion
| of the next house is decidedly demo-
cratic. When the house gets together
a committee will undoubtedly be chos-
1 en- to Investigate the claims OF Con-
} gresham Haugen and the claims OF his
, democratic opponent, d. ID. Murphy.
They may count the ballots, look into
the influence one or the other of the
ca ndidates exerted in securing his cleo
ton. examine witnesses. etc When
| they get thru with this examination
and investigation they will make re-
port to congress with their recon-
mendations and then this body of men
will act upon this report. Whatever
that vote Is it is final and there is no
way of going behind it or no way OF
contesting 1t.
The next congress being SO decidedly
democratic it may not be bad guess
when 1t is stated that ID. d. Murphy
has more than a fighting chance TO win.
What Chairman O'Connor is now doing
and what the county chairmen are sup
posed to be doing. is to be digging up
evidence that viii be fit and proper and
| in shape for this committee on investi-
cation.

Council Bluffs Dec. l9-Council
Bluffs men have invented and are now
placing on the market one of the most
useful devices ever worked out in con-
nection with automobiles. 1t is an
auto warmer" In this case. as in
that Of most inventions, necessity was
the inspiration. The expression among
those who use the auto in winter is
that lit is the coolest thing on earth"
This simple device provides that the
heat of the engine. instead OF being
obliged to waste its frangrance on the
desert air" shall be utilized to warm
and make the car comfortable for
driver and passengers alike. The idea
appeals strongly to auto men every
where. 1t fills long felt want" 1t is
practical conservation of necessary and
heretofore unused energy and will
make the auto an all year utility in
stead of mere summer pastime
The device is so simple that i. Is
really remarkable that no one though.
Of 1t sooner. Registers are put into
the foot boards Of the cars and the
heat from the engine is conducted to
these In such way that as soon as
the engine is started it passes a current
Of hot air to the registers and i'm.
mediately diffuses a heat which makes
the auto comfortable even in extreme
cold weather.

Lawrence, Kan, Nov 21.-The re-

of Kansas Medical school appears to

lor Frank Strong has stated that there

ton of the new location has not been
decided, nor has any city been given
to understand it will be given the pref
erence."
When the board of regents at a
recent meeting determined to enlarge
the school and add to the courses Of

of locating the school in Kansas City,
further stated that the first definite
plans in this direction would come

CUT DOWN LIST OF PASSES.
Western Railroads Cut OF Employees
of Lower Rank.

Commencing January 1, 1911, the is
suance by the western railroads of an
nual complimentary passes direct TO
representatives of other roads below the
rank of either assistant general passen-
agent is to cease. This action has been
made possible by the decision Of ex-
ecutiVe officers of the railroads that
freight departments be brought under
the same restrictions in this respect as
passenger departments.
Several weeks ago the western lines
took up for consideration recommen-
dation that complimentary ANIMALS be
cut off for all officials of other lines be-
low the rank of assistant general pas
senger agent. This was referred to the
executive officers, however, with the
suggestion that unless similar resolu-
ton was adopted by the freight organ
izations to cover those below the rank
of assistant general freight agent it
would be impracticable to make it ef-
fective for the passenger departments,
inasmuch as many agents represent
both departments of their railroad.
To this the freight organization con-
scented, but attention was called to the
fact that the recommendation in ques-
ton did not make mention of compli-
mentary transportation for members of
the families of the officials excluded.
Consequently the present decision has
been broadened to exclude also the fam
lilies Of those below the ranks referred
to in the passenger and freight depart
mentS.

Captain McCaIron of the Washburn
Team, Who Is Playing u Great Game
This Year.

The provisions of the Kansas confer
ence rules under which the game will
be played allow the Aggies the use of
all their six year men and their team
is composed Of players who have chas-
ed the pigskin for K. S. A. c. from,s
six years down. They are heavy bruis-
ers and will outweigh the Blue depend
ers about IL pounds per man.
The Aggie game is a great line
smashing one, primarily, though they
use the forward pass frequently and
Bates, the Topeka quarter, is a great
drop kicker. Coach Stewart has been
drilling his line men for stopping the
Farmers line attack. If they can hold
the tackle swings and the tandem bucks,
then they are quite safe.
On the offensive, Washburn ought to
show well themselves. Hardy and Tom
Iinson and Burkhart are the halves who
will work in pairs against the Aggies.
Whitcomb will run at full and McCar-
roll will direct the attack ends. Cow
gill and McIntire ought to play star
game if they continue to develop as
they did in the last three games. There
will be plenty of substitutes and there
will be no conservation of power by the
men sent in. That the Farmers did not
beat Baker worse than they did week
ago is taken to indicate that they are
losing form as the season progresses.
Coach Mike Ahearn, however, is a sly
old scout and it is scarcely probable
that his bunch will be caught off guard.
