A good many of the people of this

think that the government was going

have nothing to say In the way Of
criticism OF our present Congressman,
Atterson w. Rucker. He is taking
an active part in affairs at the capital
and is accomplishing far more than
might be expected of new member,
probably for the reason that he was
not total stranger when he arrived
