SAYS FACTS ARE
NOT CONSIDERED.

Washington, July - Senator
Porter J. McCumber of North Dako-
ia spoke vehemently in defense of
Lorimer in the senate today, claim
ing that injustice had resulted in the
retrial of the Illinois senator. He
said: 1T would be political MUIR
der if the senate should expel the
statesman from Illinois" Senator
McCumber resents the testimony of
Charles A. White of the Illinois leg
islature, who confessed to having
received money to vote for Lorimer.
This movement against Mr.. Lor-
imer," declared McCumber, "is dom
mated by public sentiment, and a
trial on the law and facts is impossi-
BILE. There could not be an unbi-
ased verdict by the members Of the
senate" he said. Members of that
body have already gone on record
with votes to the effect that Lorimer
had been elected through the use Of
corrupt methods and practices

GRAND FORKS AvIAT0R0
MIRACULOUSLY ESCAPED
Air Man Fell On Campers Tent,
Which Saved Him From Death.
1s Now in Hospital. :

Grand Forks, Nd, July Fred
Harlem, aviator Of Grand Forks who
had a narrow escape from death at
Plentywood, Mont, is now. in St.
Michael's hospital in this city recu-
perating from fifty-foot fall in the
Montana town., Harlem had made
an ascent of about a mile in the af-
ternoon, and when landing on the
ground, smashed several parts of the
aeroplane. The machine was not
repaired until after o'clock in the
evening, and then the Grand Forks
airman scared away in the semi
gloom.
On this flight Harlem flew about
ten miles and was making a wide
circle to return to the starting point
and make his landing.
Across the town from the aviation
field is a network of phone wires
stretching to the nearby hills and,
coming at the rate of sixty miles an
hour, Harlem's aeroplane struck
these wires, swapping them off clean
and overturning the machine.
The jar and overturning of the
aeroplane threw Harlem fully fifty
feet from the machine, and for a
few seconds it looked as though an
other would be added to the list OF
air fatalities, but Harlem fell square
ly upon campers tent, missing the
main pole by few inches. He re-
bounded from the canvas, turned
over several times and was knocked
unconscious when he hit the ground.
