KENNEDY FAvORS
KENRY'S PLAN
IOWA CONGRESSMAN WOULD
CHANGE TIME WHEN MEM.
BEERS TAKE SEATS
IBY e. H. HANSON.1

Washington, D. c., Aug. "a The
past few weeks of congress have so
Disguised members, senator's and the
public alike, that many are now urg.
ing that immediate consideration be
given Representative Henry's pro-
posed amendment to the constitution
changing the dates when senators and
representative shall start work from
the first of December year following
their election to the first of January
Immediately after their election.
Representative Charles A. Kennedy
of the first Iowa district is strongly
in favor of changing the present sys-
TEN.
The lack of attendance here during
the past few weeks" said Mr.. Ken
nedy, has not only hindered congress
in its work, but it has actually proven
the present system all wrong.
"A man when he is elected to con-
gress doesn't really get to work for
fourteen months after his election I'M
less the president calls a special ses-
sion. Then almost ssoon as he
reaches here he has to go back and
fight for a denomination In some sort
of a primary. If he loses in that he
takes no further interest in his work
and all he does is to draw his salary
Also a man who is beaten in Novem-
Der still has three months to serve, the
shortest and busiest session OF his en-
tire term. What interest has he after
he has been beaten? Many of the de-
feated never even return to Washing
ton.
I'm order to get the business done
right, the meeting in December should
be done away with. The man who is
elected in November should take his
seat in January, when he is fresh from
the people and imbued with the ideals
he carried in his campaign. His first
and busiest session would then be alb
solutely free from any contests for re-
election or denomination and he could
give his whole attention to his work.
Also he could give better attention to
the second year Of his service II he
started right off.
"As matters now are he has to wait
fourteen months before he gets
chance to do anything unless special
session Is called right after March 4.
If congress met in January it would
do away with special sessions. There
would be need for only two sessions
term then except in most extraordi-
navy circumstances
Mr.. Kennedy is not the only one
who is tired out and to fair extent
with the proceedings OF late.
Had congress done business as the
men who created congress thought it
would, everything would have been
cleaned up by June Is and the mem
bers could have been away for rest
before entering upon their arduous
campaigning. AS 1t Is now they will

SLIPPED ONE
over ON PAPA
FOURTEEN.YEAR- GIRL COMES
HERE TO VISIT, SHE SAYS;
GETS MARRIED

Miss Ethel E. White slipped one
over on Papa White last Thursday
and today the parental ire Is seeking
vent for relief. The girl is only four
teen years old. For the past year she
has been going with Charles r. Burt
low, now of age. When Burtlow first
popped the question, Papa White
raised particular cain He watched his
daughter carefully, but when the in
nocent request came that she be per-
mitted to visit in Ottumwa for two
weeks, the father had no suspicion
whatever. He therefor gladly gave his
consent.
The Whites live in Harvey, Marion
county, Iowa. Thursday, the then Miss
White, aged fourteen, came to Ottum.
wa. She was met by her lover and it
was just short walk from the depot
to the court house. There, Joseph w.
Wilmoth made the necessary affi-
davit. The license was issued. but
when then were married is not known
as the marrying parson has not as yet
made the return to the clerk.
The only trouble with the issuance
of the license is that Mr.. Wilmoth
swore the age Of the girl was eighteen.
She Is but fourteen Yesterday, Papa
White received letter stating that
his daughter was now Mrs. Burtlow.
This morning, he and his wife. the
girls step-mother, hurried to Ottum-
wa and cornered Clerk Phillips at 2
O'Clock this afternoon. Papa was unable
to believe that his daughter would slip
one over on him like that. But when
Clerk Phillips pointed out the evidence
his ire mounted and he threatened dire
penalty to Mr. Wilmoth for swearing
wrongly to his daughters age.
II have been fighting this thing for
a year now and then they beat me to
IT," declared the wrathy father. II am
going to make it warm for this fellow
who made this affidavit. guess they
are married. but this fellow don't get
off. Well, she followed the tracks Of
her father. guess, for married girl
fifteen years OF age"
Mr.. and Mrs. White left the court
house with the intention Of looking up
Mr.. Wilmoth. Where their daughter
and her husband are they do not know.
They are aware of the fact, however,
that "she came to visit friends in Of
tumwa"

hustle right back home-those who
want to return to Washington for an
other turn-take their coats off and go
to it. Then they will return here in
December for the short session, abso-
lutely played out.
Many Of the members are not even
going to seek reelection. This is
particularly true on the republican
side of the house. Besides Representa-
tive Kendall Of Iowa, who quit several
weeks ago, Representative Mccall,
the old Massachusetts stand-pat lead
er, Representative Dwight Of New
York, Joe Cannon's whip during his
reign, Representative vreeland OF New
York, who assisted Nelson w. Aldrich
sentative Norris of Nebraska, who is
a candidate for senator, Representa-
tive Nye of Minnesota, Representative
Kopp OF Wisconsin, Representative
Littleton Of New York, Representative
Kindred of New York and Representa-
tive Martin OF Colorado have all an
nounced their withdrawal All of them
are through for all time.
Besides these a number have been
beaten They include Representative
Macon of Arkansas, Representative
Heald of Delaware, Representative
Lamb of Virginia, Representative Dali
zell Of Pennsylvania, Representative
Daugherty of Missouri, and Repre-
sentative Stack Of Illinois.
Among those who drew out Of the
race long ago was Representative Nc
Kinney of Illinois. also Representative
Butler Ames of Massachusetts and
Representative Brantley Of Georgia.
It is estimated that there will be at
least $50 changes in the sixty-third
congress and betting man can get
even money in Washington that there
will be less than one hundred republf-
cans in that congress.
Although Senator Kenyon's amend
ment for $250,00O for the manufacture
Of field artillery at Rock Island arsenal
this year was stricken out Of the
sundry civil bill In conference, Colonel
Thompson, assistant chief OF ordnance.
has promised Representative Pepper
that it will be included in the regular
arsenal estimates next year Repre-
sentative Pepper also has assurances
from the members of the house appro-
priations committee that 1t will be
placed in the sundry civil BILL prob
ably in the approaching short session.
The amendment providing an increase
Of 100000 for small arms was left In
largely because of the work done by
Mr. Pepper with the appropriations
committee conferences.
Among the Iowans visiting Washing
ton during this week were Frank r.

York on fall purchasing trip: and
