SOME REAL, LIVE
WASHINGTON GOSSIP
by Tav.)

Washington, Feb. 19.-Imagine the
next house of representatives Demo
cratic by substantial majority.
Champ Clark is speaker, and Under
wood of Alabama is the Democratic
door leader.
An insurgent meets G. o. P. stand
patter In the corridor of the capitol.
Says the insurgent:
well, 1t happened! And it was just
as told you standpatters it would be.
You have been wiped off the political
map. Tawney of Minnesota is gone,
Smith of Iowa is gone, and the few
members of the old stand-pat bunch
that did get back can count their ma
lorities on one hand. But it serves
you fellows right. You had ample
warning. You allowed Cannon and
Aldrich to throttle every piece Of pro-
gressive legislation that came up, and
the public was on to you at every
Jump in the road. You revised the
tariff upward when you promised to
do just the opposite. But even then
you were not satisfied with the pre-
1icament you found yourself in. You
capped the climax by having Presi-
dent Taft declare the Aldrich-Payne-
Smoot bill to be the best tariff meas
ure ever enacted into law, when as q
matter of fact even the American
school children knew the bill was flied
with iokers conceived to rob the peo-
pie for the thieving sugar trust and
other tariff beneficiaries. 1t was abso.
Iutely certain that the public would
whack you over your political heads
at the very first opportunity. And
they did"
Then the regular gives his version
Of 1t, as follows:
ct fear, my friend of the west, that
you do not apply the law of cause
and effect to the situation. The de
feat Of the regular organization was
due to few reformers and traitors
who called themselves Republicans
but were really Democrats. Pretend
Ing to be Republicans, they learned all
Of the organization secrets and then
ytarted in on a campaign OF blabbine
instead Of fighting the thing out in
caucus as they should have done AND
as they would have done had they
been Republicans with the good of the
party at heart. You fellows acted like
Democrats from the start, and Uncle
joe called the right term on you wheI
he called you Democrats. You men
ton the sugar joker. Do you know
how much money the sugar people con
tributed to the Republican campaign
fund? II you don't, you hadn't ougn
TO say a word. The sugar joker. my
friend, and every other piece Of legis
lation about which you complained
was absolutely necessary to bring il
campaign funds. BY making such ;
howl over these particular features o
the tariff bill, you only directed atten
ton to the organization business
methods. with the result that Repub
lican voters deserted us by regiments
The result of your wretched politics il

ABOUT THE DUNkARDS.
Sect Was Founded In Germany In the
Eighteenth Century.

The German-American Baptists who are
holding their annual meeting at the
church near North Manchester Wabash
county. attract good deal of curious
attention. This annual meeting cores
ponds to the yearly meeting of the
Friends, the general conference Of the
Methodists or. the general assembly Of
the Presbyterians. The proceedings are
of no interest to the general public. but
the delegates excite curiosity by their
old-fashioned dress, the long hair and
boards of the men. the queer shaped bon--
nets of the women and their general
primitive appearance. Some of their
ceremonials also are curious as for in
stance their washing of one another's
feet, though some other denominations att s
Baptists. are sometimes called Dunkards.
Dunkers' or Thinkers. This name comes
from the German tunken. to dip. and re-

it was founded early in the eighteenth
century. Driven from Germany by per-
