THE MACHINE.

How lucky is the great machine,
Set up with cunning art.
1t runs unwearied and serene
A hywheel is its heart;
It's stomach is the furnace great;
It's muscles are of steel
1t does not halt or hesitate;
II does not blink or feel.
It's veins are filed with fluid fire;
1t knows no bliss or pain;
No fierce, unsatisfied desire
Persuades it to complain.
When it is i'll no nostrums quench
The energy that thrills
a man comes with monkey wrench
And cures it up or kills.
And when it cannot do the tasks
1t has performed for years.
1t seeks the scrap pile and II asks
No sympathy or tears.

u. s. SENATE TO CON.
TAIN MANY new FACES
TWO HOUSES OF SIXTY.THIRD CON.
GRESS WILL HAVE 1874 STRANGE
MEMBERS.

w aShlngtOn, IAN. 25.- he spec
ial session which is expected to be-
gin soon after the Inauguration of
President Wilson will be an alto
gether new congress, the sixty
third, of whose members I84, 23
senator's and I6I representatives,
will be new to their places. The
unusually large number OF new
representatives is the result partly
Of the reapportionment which Gre
ated many new congressional dis
tricts. But the political overturn
is responsible almost wholly for the
great change in the personnel of
the senate.
The new senators will take the
place of others. many of them long
and widely known. Such, for ex
ample, are Senators Joseph w.
Bailey of Texas, Shelby M. Cullen
of Illinois. w. Murray Crane of
Massachusetts,, Joseph NJ. Dixon
of Montana, Frank O. Briggs of
New Jersey, Norris Brown of Ne
braska. Jonathan Bourne, Jr., of
Oregon, and Murphy ]. Foster of
Louisiana.

able comment in Washington just
now. A review of the list shows
that a majority of the new men
who will sit in the senate after
March 4 have already served as
representatives.
The toga of Senator Bailey. of
Texas. now worn temporarily by
Colonel R. NJ. Johnstone, an ap-
pointee of the governor, will after
March 4 fall upon the shoulders of
Morris Sheppard. who has been a
representative in congress for the
past ten years and has been looked
upon as one of the Bryanite lead
.ers in that body.
Edwin c. Burleigh, who has
been selected by the Maine legisla-
ture to succeed Senator Gardner,
has had much legislative expert
ence. though he is not now mem
ber of congress. After fifteen years
in the house he fell victim to the
democratic landslide in Maine two
years ago.
Ollie NJ. James, who is to suc-
ceed Senator Paynter of Kentucky
has had ten years experience in
the lower house. Mr.. James first
became acquainted with the bust
ness of lawmaking at a very early
age, when he served as page in
the Kentucky legislature.
Senator Norris Brown of Ne
braska, will be succeeded by Geo.
w. Norris. who for ten years has
the fifth Nebraska dis
trict in congress. The new senat-
or gained prominence as one of the
original republican insurgents in
the house.

LEGISLATURE RESUMES
GRIND AFTER RECESS
STATE SOLONS WILL NOW Be KEPT
BUSY UNTIL END OF PRESENT
SESSION.

Work was resumed by our law
makers Wednesday at Pierre after
1.-THE recess which was taken the
middle of last week. Most of the
members went home for the few
days, however, a number of those
who were on important commit
tees remained at the capital in or
der to shape up proposed legisla-
Hon and as a result considerable
activity may be noticed from now
Enntil the end of the session.
& Governor Byrne, who announced
some time ago that he would make
no appointments until after the
legislature had elected a u. S. SEN
kator, is now being flooded with
Recommendations and otherwise,
Iconcerning men who are anxiously
Hooking for jobs at the hands of the
texecutlve.
f~ The recent senatorial fight SEEM
Idgto ccmplicate the appropriation
lconditions to some extent, but the
Ichances are that the feelings arous-
led in the contest will be dissipated
Hby the usual offensive and defensive
8lliance of the institution towns.
During the tense stages of the SEN
6torial melee it was quite the usual
flling to hear such expressions as
lfhis: These fellows will see
Where they stand when they try to
I ala through with their .appropria
1tiors this session.
From this time forth, however,
every member who gets support
for a measure on which there is the
slightest chance for difference Of
opinion will find it necessary to
make terms to some extent with
the distinguished gentlemen from
the institution towns. Recruits
obtained in this way, in addition
to strong working combination
OF the affected interests, very evil
IDENTIFY will, result in the uSual lib
eral appropriations.
Although considerable clanor
has been raised in the state over
the qaestinn of boards and bureaus
it is admitted on all sides that act
ual prospects for economy and bet
terment are presented in two new
boards-the board of control for
state institutions and permanent
tax commission. TO affect this
suggested enlargement the admin
istration has suggested several con-
solicitations. 1t has been pointed
out that the work of the hotel and
oil inspectors could be thrown into
the food and drug department and
the inspection features made more
comprehensive. Hotel inspections
under the suggested arrangements.
would apply to sanitary conditions
as we'll as to safety appliances.
Interest continues to grow
among the members, in the inves
tigation which has been started as
to the alleged excessive cost Of the
state printing. in which the two
Pierre corporations are in the lime
light as the principal benifciaries.
The contractor for the last session
laws admits that the state paid
S. 900 more than it should have
paid for the last session laws.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 4-Within
the past few days it is said hat Pres
ident Wilson and Secretary Bryan
have been in formed unofficially that
European countries are beginning to
grow tired OF eNpositions and that
fact has figured very largely in the
refusal of some of the nations to par

1t is pointed out that even in this
country each time Congress has been
asked to finance a worlds fair re-
Spouse has been more and more re-
%luctantly given, although finally the
requisite millions have been doied
out. Beginning with 1876 the several
worlds eXpositiOns of America have

trlOtlC persons have argued that such
national expenditures is not justified
