not prove a dangerous factor in
the legislative program during the
short period remaining OF the pres
ent congress.
After the senate had proceeded
with the Alaskan bin for short
time, Mr., Nelson gave way to Senator
Warren to make a motion that the
senate adjourn until Monday Mr..
Borah here jumped into the fray
again. He said he. would object and
that he did so because it had become
apparent that senators opposed to his
resolution would not give consider
alton to it if they cou.d help it. He
demanded a roll call on the motion
to adjourn until Monday and this
time he won by a small margin.
Idaho Man Bobs Up Again.
Thus encouraged Mr.. Borah asked
that his resolution be made the un.
finished business of the senate.
From the previous roll call it ap-
peared that This resolution might be
given preference and Senator Pen
rose hurriedly moved an executive
session. Such motion, under the
rules of the senate, may be made
vt any tine, and therefore Mr. Bor1tl
again found hiself elbowed out of the
way. AS the executive motion was
ing put to the senate Mr.. Borah
made a demand for a roll call, Sc
cured a sufficient number of seconds
and the call was ordered.
On what was regarded as the most
significant vote of the day, the ex-
ecutive session was denied, 80 to
40. All of those who voted in the
affirmative are regarded as lined up
and those who voted in the negative
are known to be in favor OF this
policy.
All OF the affirmative votes were
cast by republicans but several re-
publican senators voted with the
democrats against the closed session
as follows:
The Honor Roll.
Beveridge, Borah, Bourne, Bristow,
Brown, Burkett, Clapp, Crawford,
Cummins, Dixon. Gronna, Jones. La
Toilette, Nixon and Perkins.
Recognizing that Mr.. Borah had tho
votes, no further objection was made
by the opponents and the resolution
became the unfinished business of
the senate without a roll call Sen
ator Hale even aided the supporters
of the resolution in accomplishing
the parliamentary proceedings neces-
sary to that end.
Good feeling was restored and Sen.
ator Hale announced that he had
no disposition to prevent any senat r
from taking the time required to
prepare speeches on the question.
He withdrew also his objection to
an adjournment until Monday.

CITIZENS DEMAND
PEACEFUL CITY.

Vicksburg, Miss, Dec 9.-The
strained situation which has existed
in Vicksburg since lawless characters
repeatedly have attacked citizens, de-
stroyed railroad property and have
been thought to be committing such
acts with the sympathy, if not the
knowledge of the police department,
reached a climax last night, at the
called meeting of the City Council
when a number of prominent citizens
gathered and wholesale denunciation
of lawlessness was heard.
The meeting had been called as an
executive session, but when the citi-
zens were found to be present, the
Council granted them the right to the
floor, and nearly two hours of speech
making was had. Mayor Hayes ex-
pressed the view that the city had
done pretty well considering all

sen was among those who had been
threatened by strikers Of the Nazoo
and mississippi Valley Railroad, de
nounced the conditions as outrageous,
and appealed to the City Council to
bring about a change.
Alderman Stein stated that lhe mat
ter, when sifted down, seemed to he
to a great extent a case of police de-
partment being on trial, and he
thought that Chief of Police GroOme
should be asked to make an eXplana-
ton. Chief Groome spoke to the
meeting for twenty minutes. He said
that it was true the police de
partment had deserved some of the
blame which had been cast upon
them. but with only eleven men on
duty he did not think any reasonable
man would expect them to accomplish
very much. At the conclusion of the
open meeting, the Council again went
into executive session and it was in
that meeting put up to Mayor Hayes
to take charge of the situation, and
he will be expected to get results.
