SESSION TO BE
BUSIEST IN YEARS
Congressman Tavenner says Most Ar;-
bilious Legislative Proram Since
Civil War Being Laid Out.

most in Importance-Will Aid
Farmers By Credit System. /

By Congressman Clyde H. Tavenner.
Washington, November 1S.-An
signs now indicate that the coming
regular session of Congress, which
begins December 1, will not only be
the busiest, but probably the most
important session since the Civil War.
A most ambitious legislative pro-
gram is being laid out, with the
chances that some of the most inn
portant measures of recent decades
will become law before adjournment.
The same celebrity which passed the
drastic tariff law and made a long
start in the new banking bill in the:
single special session, will be con-.
tinued by the President and Congress
in carrying out other promises of the
Baltimore platform. For years the
people have been demanding these
reforms which the present govern
ment is giving them. A glance over
the prospects shows that the DEM
ocratic party expects to go before the
people next fall not to renew pro-
misses but with record of promises
kept
First and foremost in importance
will be the trust legislation. What
form this measure will finally take
no man can now predict. The
Committees of Congress will hold ex-
haustive hearings and listen to the
testimony of hundreds of experts be-
fore drafting bill. But it seems
certain that the Sherman law will
be strongly reinforced There is a
tremendous sentiment in Congress
for compulsory prison sentences for
those found guilty of violating the
Sherman law. Congress will proba-
bly, try to put back into the law the
strength of which it was robbed by
/ the Standard Oil and Tobacco deci-
sions. It is possible that the bill will
follow the proposal of Louis D
zBrand,eis, of Boston, for regulated
compition by means Of a great FEEDER.

sion stands to railroads. There vii
be a movement, too, to abolish thu
holding company, the financial devic,
which made trusts possible.
Related to the trust Legislation
will be other legislation controllin,
the Money Trust. It seems certain
that a bill will be passed prohibit

Another candidate for County
Judge, in the person of Mr.. ]. W.
Tupman, is announced in to-day's
paper. He is subject to the &C
ton of the Democrats of Adair,
expressed at the August primary.
Mr.. Tupman was born and rear
ed in few miles of Columbia,
and he comes from an old Demo-
crat family, his father being Mr..
Joel Tuoman, who never failed
to work for aud vote the Demo-
cratic ticket in every election.

party man, but he has not
been an officer seeker, but he
feels that he could fill the posi-
ton of County Judge with cred
it to himself and to the perfect
satisfaction to the people of the

favorbly known in many sections
of the county, and he proposes to

News whose speculations. have
reached this office as to our posi-
ton in the Senatorial contest, we
have no hesitancy in stating that
it isour hope and desire that FIX
Governor Beckham will receive
the Democratic nomination.
While we have no quarrel with
those who favor Congressman
Stanley yet we feel that Mr.. Beck
ham is not only entitled to it
from party pride, but eminently
qualified and fitted to render the
most effective service that could
be given by a representative in
the Senate. He has the ability
and the determination to success
fully champion the cause of the
people. His administration of
State government Was impartial
and exceedingly healthy for
this commonwealth and we be-
lieve him as we'll fitted by eX-
perience and ability, as any man
that has filled this important po-
sition from this State for years.
He is in thorough accord with
the trend of Democracy and pos
sesses the good will and esteem
of leading Democrats in every
part of the country. The bril-
liancy and capabilities of Mr..
Stanley are needed where he is
and for the time being we believe
he can render more service to the
State and nation as Congressman
than as Senator. We need STAN
lev in the Lower House and Beck
ham in the Upper and if the best
of reports don't fail thus it will
be. Kentucky is coming back TO
her old time standing in National
affairs and as certain as certain
can be historic records, in a few
fleeting years, will point back to
the days of James and Beckham
in the Senate. Stanley, Helm,
Shirley, johnson and others in
the House as those to be desired.
Mr.. Beckham was robbed of his
just deserts, four years ago, by
treachery of a few so-called Dem
ocrats who voted for Mr.. Brad
ley, and if we mistake not the
temper of the rank and file of
Democrats, no compromise will
now be made. Just put us down
for Gov. Beckham and you will
not miss the mark.

Pure water
FOR PEOPLE
OF LEWISTON

The citizens OF Lewiston are rejoic-
ing this year as they have never done
before. On Friday last the new water
system was given its official test and
the pressure was sufficient to throw
the water over the buildings with a
two inch hose with no effort at all.
The question Of how to get pure water
to drink in Lewiston has been prob
lem which has been wrestled with for
years past. This now accomplished.
the community will work unitedly for
bigger and better Lewiston. There
Is no better agricultural section In the
whole valley than at this beet growing
center where one of the largest fac
tories of the west is located and sN-
nually the wealth brought to this Sec
ton from beet culture is enormous.
This season has been no exception to
the past.
