A FAITHFUL CON GRESHAM.

Tenn, Commercial Appeal con.
tanned lengthy and very strong
editorial Of endorsement Of Hon.
Jos. 7. johnson, member Of
Congress from the Spartanburg
district OF South Carolina. That
paper spoke Of the magnificent
work Mr.. johnson Is doing to
protect the people against ex-
travagant expenditures and TO
bring about true reforms in public
affairs.
Among The bills introduced by
MI. Johnson was one for mem
bers ID DO paid actual travelling
expenses, and not 20 cents per
mile, az is now the law. Mr..
Johnson argued that the 20 cent
mileage was adopted before the
days of railways and cheap and
rapid transit, when members had
to travel back and forth from
Washington BY stage coach or
on horseback, Bat now that
they can travel on railways for
not exceeding three cents, it is
unjust Lo the Taxpayers for
members 10 receive some five or |
six times their actual outlay, /
besides their salaries and other
perquisites. Members from our
insular possessions, or even the
Far West or Pacific slope, thus
take from the treasury a sum
almost equal TO tho salary of a
Congressman.
MIR. johnson succeeded in
having this bill pass the House
be il said TO the credit of the
members, but it hangs fire in the
Senate.
And this is only one OF the
highly commendable bills this
faithful and vigilant South
Carolina Congressman has in
trodueed lie has ever since bis
election TO Congress fought un-
necessary extravagance, and Is
indeed and in truth guardian
of the public treasury, He has
waged an unending war against
the policy ot pensioning public I
and in fact, every fin |
anoial measure introduced is
carefully studied by Congress- i
man Johnson and he never fails /
nor hesitates to show the injus- I
tice OF needless expenditures. {
This yigiland members has saw Y
ed The people vast sum Of i
and we heartily endorse /
all the praise given him by the S
Memphis paper. q
The Editor of this paper sup l
ported MIR. johnson when he first |
made his race for Congress, and /
Ne have watched with pride and /
qualification his splendid career. s
lie is the soul Of honor, truth !
and sincerity and his constituents /
always know that their every ,
right and interest 10 aafe-guard- I
ed by Joe Johnson.
TO show Tie kind Of man he ,
is, we heard him confess to {
casting a certain unpopular vote.
when Senator Irby, his bitteres {
political enemy, asserted that he (
(Irby) was al the polls in Laurens |
all day, and that Johnson did 4
not vote. But instead Of seek t
ing to advance his political sue t
cess by condoing an error, Joe |
Johnson stated that Senator Irby \
was mistaken; that he did vote, '
while the Senator was taking y
. lunch, but the speaker con- i
lessed that he made a mistake in I
hat ballot, Joe johnson then
vent on to state that he knew 6
his confession would injure his I
chances for election to Congress, a
out he had rather go down in 0
iereat than secure office by con- y
niving at an honest mistake or v
under false colors. .
Instead OF that confession /
harming Mr.. Johnson, it showed

MOTHER-IN-LAW LYALL
Charges She Encouraged His Girl
Wife to Seek Society of Richard
S. Darling.

New York, Nov. 23-Robert Marsden
Shaw. banker and broker of No. 20
Broad street, today sued his mother

to seek the society of Richard 5. Oar
ling.
Darling is the young corporation pro-
moter who was sued last spring by
Shaw for $4,000 damages and later
Jailed at White Plains on a charge OF
stealing" Mrs. Shaw's affections. Shaw
charged Darling with alternating his
brides affections.
The new alienation suit against his
wife's mother was filed in the Supreme

his marriage on May Is, 1913. to the
seyenteen-year-old Katherine +. Lyall.

her daughter TO sue him for annulment
OF the marriage. The case came TO trial
before Judge BLUR last April, and the
complaint was dismissed. At that time
Mrs. shaw admitted writing a Dick,
dear letter TO Darling. but denied en-
phaticaHy that she allowed him to visit

sational Publicity Is
Decried.

Scranton. Pa. Nov 23-Protesting
vigorously against confusing sensational
ism with good publicity work. Mrs. Frank
NJ. ROsseng, convention president, made
an eloquent appeal to suffragists to avoid
in their endeavor to bring the cause be-
fore the people. any action which might
result in loss OF dignity to the cam
paign in Pennsylvania.
A bomb was exploded when Miss
Mary L. Bakewell, of Pittsburgh, suE-
gested that a Statewide parade be held
in Harrisburg in April.
Declaring that such a demonstration
would crystalline the sentiment in favor
of suffrage and would reach a larger
audience than by any other means, Miss
Bakewells motion raised a storm of
protest from the conservative wing
here. The motion was voted down after
a heated argument.
The platform was given over to four
speakers from the Mems League for
Woman Suffrage, James Lee LaidlRw,
Rev. J. ]. Curran. Rabbi ]. Leonard
Levy, and Julian Kennedy.
