Question of Mileage
One of the very serious problems and
also a very annoying one, confronting
many members of Congress now is that II
the bill is delayed SO long that this ses-
sion runs over into the next, what will
be done about mileage? This question
of mileage is no small matter. To the
congressman who lives out on the Pa
cfic coast 1t means something like $500
or 5000, and they hate to lose this money,
especially as many of them have been
forced to make several trips to and from
their homes recently and unless there is
an adjournment. any attempt to collect
mileage will be designated by the repub-
licans as graft and grab" and will
subject everyone involved to serious crit

He Knew the Fish

FROM the Argonaut.
An Irishman was fishing in a river
when it began to rain heavily. Pat, not
desiring to get soaked through sought
shelter under railway bridge spanning
the river, and here he piled his rod with
Waltonic ZEAL utterly regardless of the
trains that necessarily thundered to and
fro overhead. Presently another indi-
vidual appeared on the scene and politely
asked Pat what he was doing. Fishing .
was the laconic retort. The stranger
laughed. Pray what is the use of fish
ing under the bridge while such an infer
nal noise continues?' ooh, shut up, man.
replied Pat indignantly. Sure, We dom
know these fish. They'll come under here
