CONGRESS ASSEMBLING AGAIN

In a few days there viii begin the same
old grind over in Washington city. A
new congress was elected last fall and
the new men begin to draw pay on
March 4, but they like to stay around
Washington and they are so much big
ger men there than at home that an ex-
ira session of congress was a happy ar
rangement for the most of them.
The tariff is the plea, or the excuse,
but 1 predict there will be an awful lot
of lodging when the new congress be-
gins to cut down prices and the great
syndicates fill the halls of legislation full
of lobbyists.
Wool, lumber, iron, cotton goods, and a
whole raft of other things, will be under
fire, and shall be much mistaken If
the longest pole does not knock down
the persimmon."
1t is asking a good deal of some of
those congressman to cut their own
throats, in reducing tariff rates, because
the men who have largely profited by
high tariffs are the men who have money
to spend on legislation, and, bless your
dear life! they will spend It'll However,
lit is votes that count, and perhaps the
people who do the voting will stand up
to the right, but doubt it,
The men who are thus forced to re-
duce prices on their stuff will set up
back fires" and the honest legislator
stands a mighty poor chance when these
interested people "go for him"
That's the reason so many sorry men
can keep the Office and so many good
men are voted out, or maybe counted
outl
! But we will see what we shall see
and I am afraid there Is going to be a
lot of talk and but little done in this
l extra session of congress-.
1 Today's paper tells us that Mr.. w. M
Howard was sworn in as a member of the
tariff board, and he will get as much
salary, maybe more, as his successor, Mr.
! Tribble gets. So President Taft Is taxi
| ing care of our defeated congressman
very nicely.
| Mr. Livingston deserves as much at
tention from the president as anybody
else on this line, and shall be glad to
see Mr. Taft do 1t up Brown" as Mr.
Livingston has as many claims to his
attention as Mr.. Howard, for the same
reasons.
/ When DR.. FELTON, was counted out, g
good many years ago, there would have
been enough outcry in Georgia to have
kexiled him IL he had been offered or ac-
cepted, or been rewarded by a Republican
president, but it seems nowadays that
both parties are so much alike or sc
near together that 1t is a general grab
as well as a general reward, for those
who follow politics. for what they make
out of it. in money.
Great things have been promised. We
can now sit still until the promises are
fulfilled or dissipated

NAME EAcH cow

lsach COW should have name, which
should always be spoken when approach
ing her. This one point counts for
much in the successful handling of a
herd. Suppose the cows are slowly

Rose is about to go into the wrong
stall, a quick call of ~Rosei' will at
tract her attention, an she will forget
that she was about to go to her neigh
bor's stall to steal mouthful Of her

about to hook another member of the
herd, and just at that moment hears her
name called, she VIII forget what she
was about to do. Again suppose the

the lead; and, as you see her turning
toward the open gate. a quick. sharp
call of "Rosei" will exert wonderful
influence in bringing her back into line.
1t is by such methods that herd can
be gradually taught to do the right
things, to save you many steps, and.
at the same time bring a larger return.

each horse one-half quart corn meal,
one quart wheat bran, three pints sug-

night ration is the same as the morn

fed results in a saving of from 20 to

ARNOLD.
IS IN FARMON1.
THAT WAS THE RUMoR ON THE
STREETS THIS MORNING WHICH
WAS STARTED by SEVERAL
Z YOUNG MEN A"To HAVE SOME
Fun" " ~. !. Z.

Is Dorothy, Arnold in Fairmont?
That was the rumor on the streets this
morning and one person was asking
the other II 1t were true that the miss.
ing daughter Of the New York million.
aire perfume manufacturer was really
"in our midst" The last authentic &c.
count, according to the press, the girl
was last seen in Baltimore. -
The rumor certainly had some speed
for 1t appeared that all had heard
the startling news In, a very. short
Willie but nothing definite could be as.
certained about where she was stay.
ing in Fairmont. III
T. The rumor was run downs and It
developed that several young men at
a Main street store got together and
started the report. Each Of the young
MEN told d friend that Dorothy had
arrived inlthis city on an early morn.
Ing train. This friend told i another
person, who in turn gave. out the In.
formation as authentic. The rumor
was in wide circulation;in a few hours,
and as 1t was repeated each added a
little trimmings to the story until It
was said with all truthfulness Just
how the young lady was dressed, how
she looked when seen on the streets.
But no one could tell where she was
stopping here. >ij2
The!e was nothing to the rumor and
1t is not at all likely that Dorothy
will ever come TO Fairmont. but sup
pose she would, wouldn't Fairmont get
in the limelight quickly? The hilly
city, Of the Mountain State would be
known far and wide all over the coun-
try and across the pond.
The above untruthrut rumor demon
strates how quickly news travels after
all the startling trimmings are added
to a story, making 1t plausible to the
ordinary person. AL
