ership ne neld this position unn his death.
 Senator Raines was big framed. tall and wide shouldered. with cold blue eyes and stern expression. Few new members could stand up against the violence of his eyes. He stared them into their seats without uttering a word. Although reticent and usually stern. he was genial and kind hearted with his most intimate friends. One of his forms of humor was shown when he was pursued by short leg ged office seeker. Raines' long legs would travel at lightning speed. with the little man panting by his side. only to fall back at last Raines would finally stop suddenly. the little fellow would bump into him. his hat would fall over his eyes. and he would pull up confused and incoherent. Then Raiucs would laugh
