Robert Johns Buckley, the Democrat
who carried the old Senator Burton dis
trct in Cleveland last year, has arrived
in Washington for the session. He is the
most youthful looking member of the
House. and looks even younger thas his
years. Buckley was one month over
thirty years old on the day of his cleo
ton, and is the youngest member of the
House. He graduated from Harvard
nine years ago, and was never a candi-
date for Office until named for Congress
against James Cassidy last year. While
his district is normally Republican,
young Buckley has hopes that the gov
ernor of Ohio will have courage enough
to call the legislature in special session

City proper in an actual Democratic d.
vision. II not, the young man will make
the campaign anyhow, and is encouraged
by the recent Democratic victory in
Cleveland, which gave control of the city
to the old Tom johnson organization.

In days of old, though knights were
bold and FASTENED to the fray,
Az like as not the blows they got were
all they had for pay.

When peace would come they'd wander
home with little else but scars.
In current times, some welcome dimes

knights strive for fame, but just the
same, they want their royalties.
A man to-day gets better pay; he takes
his place and fights,
Some good blows gives and later lives
upon the picture rights.
