lowed their leader and voted to ad-
that day.
Then Mr. Murdoch formally intro
duced his resolution. Such matters
usually go to the committee on print
ing, but for some reason this one
was referred to the committee on ac-
counts, where it is still slumbering
rms was the status of the matter
when, at the opening of the session
on April II. the speaker laid before
the house the report of the clerk for
the purpose of having it printed.
Mr. Murdoch promptly asked Mr..
Clark If the report included these
statements of contributions and ex-
penditures. The speaker replied that
it did not. and explained that he
did not think he had authority to di-
rect the clerk to include them, but
he would entertain a motion to have
that done. Immediately Mr.. Murdoch
made that motion, and then the fun
began
Hardwick of Georgia, democrat of
the old school, promptly raised a point
of order against the motion. He
said that if Mr.. Murdoch would ask
unanimous consent to have the state
ments printed he would not object.
Mr.. Murdoch knew plenty of other
democrats who would object. how
ever, so he did not fall into that trap.
Sherley- of Kentucky, one of the
most adrot members of the demo-
cratic machine, jumped to HardWick' S
support. He declared that the duty
laid on the clerk by the law was
to file the statements. not to print
them, and that if it was desired to
have the statements printed the
proper procedure would be to change
the law. Mr.. Sherley is a firm be
lever in the literal observation of the
law.
Mr.. Murdoch replied that the house
has complete power over the clerk.
and could direct him to print the
statements if it desired
Mr.. Lloyd of Missouri. another old
school democrat, who. from having
been chairman of the democratic con
Gressional committee, knew pretty
well what sort of disclosures will
ne llldut' IL tntSe statements OF con-
Gressional campaign funds are ever
printed, got into the rracas then with
the assertion that publicity had been
given already.
Mr. Murdoch at once exploded that
by showing how little publicity there
really had been. He added that the
statements should be put into docu
ment form so that the constituents
of members and the people generally
could gain easy access to them and
so that they could be permanently
preserved.
All this time the republicans had
sat silent. But now Mr. Mann, their
astute floor leader. jumped in with
cogent argument to show that the
Murdoch motion was in order Hav-
ing done that. he went on to compl
cate the situation by injecting a new
technicality as reason why the
statements should not be printed
The controversy finally brought the
democratic leaders, Underwood and
Fitzgerald. to the floor. Fitzgerald is

serted his party to help Uncle Joe

We employ a method of concrete
construction which does away with

them, by using a fitting table or

wall of the building is constructed,
with window frames in place; and
the finish, or ornamentation all done

When the concrete is set, the wall

This method is new, only in the

was the subject of MUCH comment here
today The general opinion prevails that
Hohson must be in desperate straights to
resort to such tactics.
Mr.. Underwoods record in Washington
has been so clear and above board that
his bitterest political enemies have been
unable to find the least excuse for
making an attack on his integrity
and even the republican leaders who do
agree with him on the tariff, have never
questioned his honesty of purpose

1T is also strange that If Captain
Hobson knew all these dark and evil

Underwood for the presidency-unless
perhaps he thought it was the popular
thing for him to do with all Alabamians .
1t is also regarded here as inconceivable
that Captain Hobson can be making
much progress with the people of Ala
bama when his two principal rivals for
the Senate are held in Washington in
order that quorum may be obtained to
pass the urgent deficiency bill. Mr.. I'm
derwood worn out with long. hard fight
on the tariff tried to snatch few day 8
rest, but was compelled to return to the
city in order that he might aid in col
lecting quorum to pass this measure.
In the meantime, Captain Hobson, as
in the past. is "out of town endeavorins,
to promote his own political interests,
while his rivals are here attending to
the duties for which they were elected.
