fiuous and irrelevant not to say
immaterial as far as an ordinary
person is concerned.
Equal right to ALL" cry the

The long lawmakers claim that
to be granted ten foot sheet gives
them but the equal right of the
shorts" that is, it gives them the
right of having sufficient covering
and at the same time safeguard
against possible infection from an
uncovered blanket.
To grant a ten foot sheet would be
giving a special privilege to the
longs which ordinary people would
neither demand nor enjoy, say the
Shorts"
In the senate, A. L. Freehafer,
feet high, and A. G. Kerns, 6 feet
and inches, are the lone represent
atives of the "long" faction, although
there are number of other grave
and reverends who hang around the
neighborhood of six-footerdom and
they will support the longs" in the
sheet fight.
The question of breadth has like
wise been raised by John P. Elmers,
who weighs $50 pounds and has the
distinction of being the house heavy
weight. He has the solid backing of
]. j. Wood Of Nez Perez, who makes
the Fairbanks scales groan at 235
avoidupois on warm days and has
been known to approach 245 when
the frost was on the pumpkin and
the fodder in the shock.
SOrensOn Not Interested
Here, true enough, the matter of
the dimensions of sheet settles
down to question as broad as it is.

able that in considering the longitude
Of the hotel sheets, the house will
give the heavyweights a little lati-
tude to boot.
The only man who is taking abso-
lutely no interest whatever in the
controversy is j. P. Sosenson of Nez
Perez county, five feet high, who is
the shortest man in the house. He
says that the question of limiting
or extending the length or width of
hotel sheets will not affect the class
he represents, because they can lie
either lengthwise or sidewise without
discomfort.
Meanwhile, Ravenal Macbeth of
Custer, playing the peacemaker, as
usual cries out from the praying
tower to all belligerents. ooh,
Nuts! Be reasonable!" and the
senate echoes his unavailing cry in
vain.

Monday evening. Each year the num-

to increase, and so, as it always has
been, the annual G. A. r. ball was well

Washington, ID. c., Jan. ALREADY
the campaign to be waged for the ma
tionaI presidency Of the Daughters of
the American Revolution, to be voted
on in April is under way. 1t will be
lively, say those interested. Mrs. Will
liam Cumming Story Of New York, who
lost the election last year by eight
votes, is again in the field in opposi-
ton to the incumbent, Mrs. Matthew
Scott Each has large followings and
the excitement is beginning to be in
tense
One of the first moves in the cam
paign was made the first of the week,
when a report from Washington stated
that Mrs. Story, being an ardent suf-
frage worker, would take the subject
Of "votes for women" into the fight.
Her candidacy received a decided set
back in consequence, it was said. This
caused connection in the ranks, for,
the report says, many oS the Daugh-
tiers who are in sympathy with the
movement fors women's political rights,
are opposed to having the society as
an organization go on record on mat
tiers which have no relation to the
aims of the founders"
1t was Furthermore stated that Mrs
Charles w. Fairbanks, herself a suf-
fragist, and formerly president general
had deserted her position beside Mrs
Story and had gone over to the aid OF
Mrs. Scott Mrs. Story has just sent
out a circular letter to her friends in
which she denies the possibility of hel
suffrage views interfering with hel
work among the Daughters, as, she
maintains, it has always been her ain
to exclude the subject from any or
ganization over which she presided
She also reaffirms Mrs. Fairbanks 10y.

THE CROUCH
A GENUS BORN, NOT MADE: AND
BOTH MALE AND FEMALE, AL
THOUGH MORE OF THE FOR.
MER, ALAS!

DON'T live with or have anything to
do with a crouch.
The crouch can never change. Poor
soul, it is born that way.
You see tiny baby grouches, and moth
ing on earth you can do will make
them stop wailing and yowling.
You can Feat the milk bottle until
your arm aches and sing ride a cock
horse" until your back breaks and
there is always the same sour little
face
AS the baby grows up every one keeps
on trying to brush away that grouchy
look. Perhaps this is why it stays.
An injured expression now is added
to 1t, and the crouch demands to be
left alone.
The only time the crouch lets up is
Just long enough to get married, be-
cause If 1t didn't it would stay single
all it's life.
The term "it' is used because
grouches are both male and female, bui

Act as If nothing were the matter

One thing is important to remember
You can never please a crouch, 81
