FRED G. STEVENS.
Stevens non-Partisan.
Regardless of whether the admin
istration was Republican or Demo-
crat, Mr.. Stevens has always voted
for measures which he believed to be
for the public interest, and against
those which he believed to be detri-
mental. His legislative record
proves his breadth of mind and inde-
pendence. During this administra-
tion he has voted for most of the
administration measures as the fol-
lowing extracts from the Democratic
Campaign Text Book show.
II do not wish members to forget
the great service in connection with
this bill rendered by the Minority
Member. that great committee''-the
Committee on Interstate and Foreign
Commerce. The Gentleman from
Minnesota (Mr. Stevens) who en-
joys the confidence, respect and af-
fection of every member of this house
has great influence in the final devel-
opement of this bill.''-the Trade
Commission Bill.
The Federal Reserve Act: Which
puts an end to Wall Streets central

panics. Mr.. Stevens voted for this
bill.

Bill, one of the administration s
most important Antitrust measures.
Mr.. Stevens voted for this bill.
The Rayborn Bill which gives the
Interstate Commerce Commission
power to regulate the issue of rail-
way securities. Mr.. Stevens voted
for this bill.
The Panama Canal Toll Bill-Mr.

but made in its support a speech
which many of the leading newspa-
pers of the country recognized edi-
torially as the most powerful de-
livered in the debate.
The administration takes credit for
creating six agencies of direct value
and interest to labor. Mr.. Stevens
voted for every one of them.
The administration takes credit
for thirteen other bills in the inter-
est of labor. Mr.. Stevens voted for
twelve of these.
Furthermore The Democratic
Text Book on page 308 specifically
mentions the support given by Mr..
Stevens to the Trade Commission
Bill and the Rayburn Bill to prevent

Rank thee less than eels or frogs,
And shall I, thy worth forsaking,
Cast thee out to hungry dogs?

Toothsomeness for princes fit;
Savors rare to skill revealest,
Succulence if sauced by wit.

CHAPTER XXI.

The morning after the election, Clio
ria called for the Banner as soon as
she wakened. The headlines told her
at once that her father had been de-
feated. She searched carefully
through the paper for some reference
to Joe Wright, but no mention was
made of him. Naturally enough, the
Banner was not in jubilant mood.
1t predicted dire things in store for
Belmont, but Gloria, remembering
what she had learned at so bitter q
cost, felt that any change must be for
the better
The girl had now recovered from
the first severity of the shock, and was
anxious to know for a certainty what
had become Of Wright She knew that
he lived and was not seriously injured,
else there would have been some men
ton of him in the paper. The day pre-
vious she had thought much of him,
but there had been much else for her
to think of. Now with a return to
what was to be for her the normal,
she wanted to know how he Jared.

suited in His Losing Fourteen
Chickens.

Arthur j. Holmes, a Beresford
(Cal) farmer, whose establishment is
near the summer home of Antoine
Borel, was not cut out for bee fan
cier. Some time ago while pruning
some trees on his farm, Arthur was
overjoyed to discover a colony of bees
ensconced in hollow limb, busily en-
gagged In, making honey.
Recently he decided that the time
was ripe to sample this unexpected
luxury, so he proceeded to the tree
and began operations by poking IN the
hole with large stick. Then things
happened.
The bees, alarmed and anscTed at
this treatment, came forth to do bat.

next to the end or back walls, six to
ten inches above the dropping boards,
While the latter are from two to two
and one-half feet above the floor. They

either the wide or narrow surface up.
Allow seven to ten inches of roost
space per fowl, according to the size
of the birds. Roosts should be placed
about fifteen inches apart, but the out
side ones may be within ten inches of

lumber which is available for that pur-

DR.. Hayes stared at him in amaze

word, yet he readily believed, as did
the others, that both Wright and she
were the only ones who could tell the
story The woman in whose room they
had been found was still in delirious
condition at the city hospital and
nothing could be learned from her.
Although Kerr had ordered the police
to bring in Ryan and Kelly, the search
had been unsuccessful

Wright smiled grimly, the thought
that good luck would perch upon his
standard was sorry hope. He refused
to bind himself to the truth with any
fleeting consolation such as that.

Nothing of a personal nature had
been allowed to help contribute to this
success. No mention had been made
in the News of the assault on it's edi-
tor in Mike Noonan's lodging house
because to Wright it had appeared as
a personal matter The day previous
Gloria had denounced him and cried
aloud for vengeance He recognized
that had Gloria not been mixed up In
the affair the result might have been
the same. but the personal element
was what made him hold his peace.
The news that the day had been car
ried for good government was only a
temporary intoxicant. There were a
few moments of exhilaration when his
real feelings were submerged In the
general rejoicing that David Kerr had
been given a more severe setback
than he had ever before received.
Then came the ebb of the tide, leav-
ing him on the desolate shore of dis
heartening uncertainty. The past was
a nightmare and the future a blank.
