Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1911-02-15

In discussing the Lorimer case,
Senator Brown of Nebraska served
notice on the Senate that vote must
be. taken this session on four propo-
sitions-the validity of the Lorimer
election; the resolution to amend
the Constitution for direct election
of Senator'S; the tariff commission;
and the Sulloway bill to increase
pensions. Senator Brown told the
Senate plainly that if these propo-
sitions did not receive attention at
this session, then some of the appro-
priation bills would have to go over.
If this warning is not needed by the
Senate it will mean that an extra
session will have to be called to pro-
vide, the necessary legislation for
the conduct of the government dur
ing the next fiscal year.

With the Senate tie and the
Vice President casting the deciding
ballot, that body a week ago pass
ed the ocean mail subsidy bill by
vote of 40 to 80. Previous to the
final vote the Vice President was
required to exercise his constitu-
tional privilege in order to adopt
the Gallinger substitute in commit
tee of the whole. After the subsidy
bill had been passed, Senator Borah
attempted to make the constitutions
al amendment for election of sem
ators by direct vote the unfinished
business of the Senate. Upon yea
and nay vote the Senate was again
tied, and for the third time the Vice
President was called upon to exer-
else his prerogative. This is the
first time in fifty years that a Vice
President has been called upon three
times to cast deciding ballot.

ANOTHER GREAT PRODUCTION.
1.-THE Third Degree" One of the
Most Popular Plays on the Road,
Coming to. Decorah.

Sitting in dingy steamship wait
ing room, with gendarmes, peasants
and naughty Partisan danes pass
ing, or lounging about, Charles
Klein, with his wife, had just COM
and France and was bound for
Cairo, Egypt. Upon their arrival,
as is Mr.. Klein's custom, he visited
the offices of the American Consul
at Marseilles, and requested him to
forward such mail as arrived to
Cairo, and with his pretty little wife
boarded the steamer "Sergipe" at
the Lloyd Brazileiro'' quay.
AS the gang plank was being
hoisted, a messenger came running
down the pier shouting for Mons.
Klein" Mr.. Klein, perfect lin
guist, answered the call, and the
messenger, from the Consul's Office,
tossed him parcel of mail and sew
eral newly arrived American papers
just in from Cherbourg.
The steamer was we'll out to sea
when Mr.. Klein spread the papers
out in the smoking salon and began
reading the telegraphic matter.
Wrong Man Executed For Crime" +"
read one headline, Guilty Man Con-
fesses on His Death Bed," 1t con-
tinued, and this particularly attract
ed Mr.. Klein's attention. Calling
his wife, he outlined drama to
her, with the plot hinging about a
young man wrongfully accused,
forced to confess through extortion,
or sweating, as one of the severe
processes of the taird degree is
termed. Mrs. Klein, who is always
the censor of Mr.. Klein's aspira-
tions, approved the idea and when
the famous dramatist reached his
hotel, THE Sheppard" at Cairo, his
mental notes had been transferred
into the scenario of what has since
proven to be the most interesting
dramatic documents yet contributed.
The first act was written while the
Kleins were en- route to Germany,
the second act during the long trip
from Southampton to Rio de jan
eric. Brazil, where they spent a
month. 1t was at the beautiful
hotel, "Amenida" opposite the
Monroe Peace Palace" in Gov
ernador Praca," at Rio that the
third act was completed. and during
the trip from Rio to New York on
the steamer "Tennyson" that the
play reached finality. Thus, writ
ten In. half a dozen countries, on
several seas and many rivers, the
play is termed by Mr. Klein may
polygloticaI play, and as It is about
to be produced in French and Ger
man, Mr.. Klein seems to have given
it its proper title.
This great play, one of the most
intense ever produced, comes to the
Grand in short time.

The Democrats of the House, as
sisted by few Republicans who re-
fused to be bound by their party
caucus, last Thursday won their
fight for an increased representation
under the 1910 census. They voted
down the Republican caucus bill to
maintain the membership at the
present 391 and then passed the
Crumpacker bill fixing the member
ship at 433 on and after March 3,
1913. Under this reapportionment
plan, Iowa will retain its present
representation, while under the plan
proposed by the Republican caucus
it would have lost one member.

The tariff commission bill has

House amendment to Senator Gull
Ions bill providing for the erection
in Washington Of an appropriate
monument to the memory of Abra-

passage of this bill would seem to
