Henry with all these things in mind is
early on the scene. He believes that a
good start is worth something. and he is
getting it. He has been in Washington for
several days, and for every day he has
been in washington he has taken the
occasion TO submit a few remarks con-
corning various and sundry matters, on
which he has a decided opinion, to the
right people to get them in the public
print, SO that the people may be enlight-
ened. Mr.. Henry is one of our most
charming little enlighteners. Right now
he is working at the job, holding right
on to it just like he held onto Wilson,
and just like a federal officeholder holds
onto his meal ticket.
Mr.. Henry wants to. do away with
March as Inauguration day, and if he
has his way, President Wilson will be the
last President to be inaugurated on that
day. Mr.. Henry wants the date changed
to the last Thursday in April, so that the
chances viii be for better weather than
usually prevails In March. He is also
welded to the one term of six years idea
for the President. He believes in this
very strongly and proposes to be among
those who insist upon early action toward
that end.
Also Close to Bryan
In some way ii has got out, too, that
Mr.. Henry is not only going to be very
close to the next President, but will also
be kind of mouthpieee for the gentle
man from Nebraska" The commoner was
very confidential with Mr. Henry when he
was here in Washington, and they were
together a great deal and had some real
earnest talks, the nature of which Mr..
Henry has not made public, despite the
fact he has been fairly busy making
things public about almost everything
else.
Mr.. Henry introduced the resolution d.
recting that an investigation be made
of the money trust. This committee is
headed by Mr.. Pujo of Louisiana, and was
to have resumed its investigation next
Monday, but will postpone the inquiry
until December 9. There Is story to the
effect that the committee and Mr.. Inter
meyer the famous New York lawyer, who
is the legal adviser of the committee, is
in a controversy OF some nature. This
story is vigorously denied, however, by
Representative Puio. and also Mr.. I'm
termeyer, but any way. Mr.. Henry has
said. IF the attempt on the part of some
persons to destroy the usefulness of the
money trust committee is successful, /
will introduce a resolution on the first
day of next session for the appointment
of a new committee" Mr.. Henry stands
with Mr.. Untermeyer that the committee
follow a radical line of investigation.
It is quite certain that beginning Inn
mediately after March the country will
begin to hear from Mr.. Henry of Texas
in large assignments, so the country
might as well prepare itself for such
event. Mr.. Henry is a progressive demo-
crat, an original Wilson man. Bryan en-
thusiast and chairman of the rules COM
mittee of the House of Representatives
and altogether a very capable person, so
in the language of J. Ham Lewis, while
acting as chairman in Baltimore, IF the
gentleman of Texas wants to make few
observations, why let us compose our
selves and have order and let him submit
them"

THE NEXT SESSION
Has Some Pet Projects That
He Intends to Get Out
of His System
CLOSE FRIEND TO
BRYAN AND WILSON
AS Chairman of Rules Committee He
Does Not Intend to Let Clark
and Underwood Have All
the Limelight

Washington, November 2s.-(opecial.)-
While Representative Robert L. Henry Of
Texas has very thoughtfully decided not
to oppose Champ Clark for the speaker
ship-for the sake of harmony-this does
not mean that Representative Henry pro-
poses to take any back seat in the great
est show on earth-our National Con-
gress. No. indeed, that is not SO as you
can tell it. Representative Henry has
several pet measures, very pet indeed,
which he proposes tosuse as vehicles to
shove him further out into the limelight
than he has ever yet ventured in his
whole career in Congress.
Representative Henry is chairman of the
rules committee of the House. And while
he has been in that capacity since the
democrats have been in power, still Oscar
Underwood and Champ Clark have been
so unusually stingy about giving up any
OF the calcium, running for President and
introducing tariff bill or two every
week, that Representative Henry has in
some way not received the attention, prob
ably that was due to so distinguished a
statesman.
Original Wilson Man
It's going to be different from now on.
Representative Henry was an original
Wilson man. He was for Wilson long be-
fore the Baltimore convention was staged
and that trying ordeal gone through with.
He remained for Wilson with a grim de-
termination and without the least devia-
ton from start to finish. When Represen-
tative Roddenberg of Illinois made his
speech attacking the democratic candi-
date on the floor of the House after his
nomination at Baltimore, it was Repre-
sentative Henry who came to bat in re-
ply, and delivered speech defending Mr..
Wilson. which albeit might not have been
so fine a speecil-from the point of elo-
quence--as Roddenberg's, but it was a
speech of facts-cold, hard facts. Mr.

The Useful Bird of Prey.

It Is the general belief of nat uralists that birds of prey are, on the whole, of great service To farmers; but this belief is direct ly opposed to that which has been commonly held by the farm CTS themselves.
 Tn Ornithologisis have, there fore, undertaken to ascertain who is right, the farmer OF the man of science. To this end some time ago about twenty-seven hundred stomachs uf newly kill ed hawks and owls were critical ly examined.
 Of the Srvenly-three kinds of
 Uniied StateS only six are, on the whole, held by the experts in be injurious. of these, three are so extremely rare as hardly to call for attention, and another--the fish hawk--iS only indirectly harmful, Su that of only iwu-- the sharp skinned hawk and
 Cooper's hawk--need any prarii-
 cal account be taken.

Young -Winkler worked for Ja- beg Beall, who deals in shoes and linseed meal. For years he was a valued clerk, and Jabez warm ly praised his work. And Wink ler's friends would often say he should be drawing better pay. He owes his splendid trade to you; oh, what would poor old Ja- beg do, if you'd decide to flee the coop? 'Twould surely leave him in the soup." Young Winkler's head began to swell, so many people stopped to tell him what a hOneybird he was, and clapped his back with fcrvent paws. So Wfnklcr then began to feel he was a bigger man than Beall, and he got grouchy, mean and sore, be- cause he wasn't drawing more. He thought if he resigned his job his boss would wall around and sob and beg him for a while to stay, and doubtless give him dou- biC pay.
