WASHINGTON, March 26.-While

McCumber cited these deaths of ben

Continuing his fight on the omnibus

asked that action on them be further

that request Senator :McCumber, chair.

". Many Veterans Have Died
TN the time the senator from
Georgia has had to examine the bill

He pointed out that a bill appropriat.
ing more than $4,00O,o00 had just
been passed in about twenty minutes
referring to the Notifications ap-
preparation bill-without considering
each item separately, and he added
that 1t hardly seems fair to demand
the consideration of each item in the
pension bill then pending, involving
only a few hundred thousand dollars.
"Of course, realize the fact that

Thelismer Thornton. locally known
as Duke Of Canibas." for fifty years
boss of his district, plans to retire and
send his grandson. Harlan, to the leg
islature as his successor. The reform
ers In his district. who are called
"Ramrodders," endeavor to defeat
Harlan for the nomination. They are
led by Ivus Niles, Evangelist Dudley
and others. Harlan is unwilling to be
a candidate. but his grandfather in
sists. Harlan and Miss Clare Kava-
nagh are very much interested in each
other, and Thornton and Clare's ia
ther try to break up this intimacy.
The reformers are In control of the
caucus, but Thornton's followers STAN
pede them by starting a forest fire and
during their absence nominate Harlan
for the Legislature. Harlan helps sub
due the fire, learns of his nomination
and tells his grandfather that he will
decline 1t because it was dishonesty
procured.
However. the duke gets him to run
for the Office, settles with farmers who
lost by the forest fire and practically
assumes management of the whole
state campaign. Harlan meets Clare,
who, gowned and gloved, looks more
mature. Thornton and Harlan pay a
secret visit to Ex-Governor Weymouth
and get him to accept the nomination
for governor in order to beat Arba
Spinney. Harlan meets pretty Made
leine Presson. Weymouth startles
Thornton and other leaders by insist
Ing upon writing his own platform
and upon a rigid enforcement of the
prohibitory law. They refuse to NOM
mate him. Harlan deserts his grand
father and supports Weymouth, who
learns that Spinney has been bribed to
retire by Thornton, Presson and 9TH
ers. Weymouth compels them to NOM
mate him, and Harlan shares In his
victory. Weymouth declares he will
enforce the ~prohibitory law, but he
rebuffs the "Ramrodders." He makes
Harlan his chief Of stan for the cam
paign. Clare reveals her love for Har-
Ian. then goes away to be educated.
Weymouth compels his party leaders
to more actively support him, and
Madeleine Presson tells Harlan he's
foolish to have such high political
ideals. Weymouth Is elected. Harlan
proposes marriage to Madeleine, but
gets no reply. Governor Weymouth
makes Harlan sponsor for a drastic
prohibition law. Linton, one of Made
leine's s~uitors, insists that Harlan cease
being her escort because Spinney has
circulated a scandalous story about
Harlan and Glare. Harlan thrashes
Linton in Clare's presence and declares
that he will marry Clare. Madeleine
does not love him. Glare disappears.
Harlan introduces the drastic prohibit
ton bill.

the old mess hall, back on
IMSziSI their former footing. Word
- by word it came out of the
duke-his admiration for this boy who
had made his own way. Every blow
he had dealt his grandfather's personal
pride had brought the reactionary glow
of appreciation of this scion who could
hit SO hard and so surely.
He watched him saddle his horse
after supper. He did not ask where
he was going.
Harlan did not know. His longing
drew him down the long street and
across the big bridge, his horse walk
ing slowly.
The dusk was cool and soft. Below

piers with sounds as though the rivers

murmurings.
When he came out under the stars
he saw the red eyes Of Dennis Kava-

the peace of the sky and fields out of
his heart. He spurred his horse and
galloped up the hill.
Even as Thelismer Thornton found
true haven OF his porch in the summer
evening, so Dennis Kavanagh had his
solace in his own domain, smoking his
pipe. He sat there when Harlan
swung close to the steps.
