Extra Session Feared.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-How to
dodge an extra session after March 4
was the problem looming up tonight
for leaders of congress after only one
weeks work. Speed was the watch
word, but whether there could be
enough velocity to close up the rath-
er extensive program by March 4 was
very doubtful. Night sessions at
least once week for the considera-
ton of bills behind which there is
no administration pressure and such
further meetings as may be deemed
advisable by the steering committee
were agreed upon by the caucus of
democratic senators this afternoon.
More than thirty democrats attended.
No particular bills, it was asserted,
were approved by the caucus. 1t was
agreed that appropriation bills will

be given the right Of way over every
thing. The democratic senators also
decided to cut the Christmas recess
this year down to a few days, it be-
ing the opinion that the recess should
be taken on the % and expire the
Monday following Christmas. while
just one day will be allowed for New
Years. Similar agreement was
made today by the house steering
committee. An under current of re-
volt over the government ship pur-
chase bill was evident in both sides
of the capitol. open revolt in the
house under powerful leadership was
threatened. Administration leaders,
however, were confidently ready for
the test. This fight, coupled with
lengthy wrangling over army and
navy bills and extremely heavy work
on appropriation bills will make pros
pect of an extra session more immi-
nent than leaders cared to contem-
plate.

Plans for the community Christmas
tree and the exercises attending it
were reported at the meeting held
Friday afternoon in the Y. w. G.. A.
reception room. The meeting was
very well attended and was presided
over by Mrs. c. M. Rich. Miss Alton
reported that Manager Holmes of
Hotel Iowa has again loaned one OF
the Main street rooms on the first
floor of the hotel for Christmas head
quarters. The room will be opened on
Monday. December 81, to receive con-
tributions for the Christmas giving. It
will be open every day until Thurs
day, December "a, when the distribu-
ton of baskets and toys will be made.
Keokuk was liberal in its gifts
to the Christmas ship and she should
be no less mindful Of the empty
stockings at home. Many people are
out of work and this increases the
possibility Of Santa's sleigh passing
some homes where he has heretofore
been accustomed to stop. To meet
the increased needs, the headquarters
at Hotel Iowa will need generous gifts.
Mrs. D. A. Collier reported that
the outdoor Christmas tree had been
donated by the committee Of the
school board having supervision OF
the Washington school grounds. The
tree will be taken down under the
personal supervision of Messrs. Dol
lery and Woolley and will be moved
from the Reps property to the gov
eminent lawn and set up by James
Cameron's Sons Co. The necessary
permission was secured from the gov
eminent by Postmaster McManus and
the mayor and city commissioners as
sumed the responsibility to the gov
eminent for the provision by which
consent was given for the use OF the
postoffice lawn. All of which has prev
iously been reported in The Gate City

A state program has been ar
ranged by the Baptist leaders, for the
purpose of enthusing not only the
Baptist Young Peoples Union, but
also to inspire the Sunday schools to
greater and more efficient activity.
To do this, conventions are being
held at the centers all over the
state, and it falls to Keokuks good
lot to be one of these central points
where a convention will be held. AL
ready number Of these conventions
have been held and they have proven
a great source Of benefit to those at
tending. This local rally and con-
vention has already begun and there
are many delegates from various
towns and cities surrounding Keokuk.
Burlington, Mt. Pleasant, Farming
ton and Des Moines have sent rep
resentatives to attend.

and Prof. J. A. Lapham speaking.
Last nights meeting was addressed
by Professor Lapham of Des Moines.
Sunday afternoon at 2:3o and Sun
day evening from $50 on will be the
larger meetings and it is expected
that great interest will center about
these services. Not only will the
members be present, but also great
many friends of the Union.
This local convention anticipates
the general Baptist convention which
will be held at Cedar Rapids next
year, and it Is the desire of the lead
ers of the movement to enthuse the
local churches to be >present at this
great convention.
