HON. {. S. GAMBLER. Ja.

this the First District of Miss
issippi. The circumstances un-
der which he has been nomlna-
ted and elected furnish indispu-
table evidence of his standing
with his people. Four times ne
was nominated without opposl'
ton and three times by such
overwhelming majorities that his
nominations were p~ractlcaliy
unanimous.
Mr.. Gambler is one of the
working members of congress
His daily talk is one of devotion
to the interest OF his constitu-
ents. No one has ever written to
him upon any subject during the
fourteen years that he has been
in congress that did not receive
a prompt and courteous reply.
Many unusual and impossible re-
quests are made of congressman,
vet Mr.. Gambler has met every
request with that same courteous
treatment which has character
lied him throughout his long SER
vice.
AS a member of the Temper
ance Committee. he took a lead
ing stand as a strong advocate
of temperance and did effective
work in behalf of the temper
ance from a national standpoint.
When the democrats went into
power the members of the House
were assigned to only one impor-
tant committee and Mr.. Gambler
chose to remain on the commit
tee of Agriculture. His district
was strictly an agricultural dis
trict and there he could do the
most effective service As a
member OF this committee he has
untireingly and increasingly la
bored to promote the best inter
est of the people engaged in ag-
riculture. Every measure look
ing to the advancement of the
cause Of the farming classes has
met with his hearty support.
His colleagues recognize in him
a loyal friend of the farmer and
he has been dubbed by members
of the House as Farmer Zeke."
When the European war be-
gan and placed the South at
such serious Disadvantage in dis
posing Of the cotton crop, con-
gress was appealed to to furnish
relief. Many plans were sug-
gested and numerous bills were
introduced with the hope OF evol-
ing something that would prove
~effectual. Conflicting interest:
and personal ambition stood ir
the way. Finally a caucas was
held among Southern Democrat
and a motion was carried t(
name a committee from the vari'
Gus committees to take all the
measures and work out of then
one particular measure upof
which all could agree. Mr.. Can
dler was named on this commit.
tee and with the aid of his col
leagues brought before the com
mittee the most practical meas
ure for government relief tina
was brought before the CONGRESS
Owing to the fact that a thm'
had already DeenSel Tor ADJOURN
ment, this measure failed 0
passage.
The last sittinf of congress
spent over a period of nineteel
months. The canvass for re
nomination was on in the mean
time, but Mr.. Gambler stuck t
his post. He felt that his dut,
lay in serving the people during
the term for which he had beel
elected and not in devoting hi
time to secure another term
Approaching his lofty conception
of duty his people returned hin

HIGHER R. R. RATES
IS BANKERS DEMAND
Unanimous Action by Leading Fl
nanciers in Session at
Richmond, Va.
Special TO The Tcleerdbh

Richmond, Va, Oct. 16.-Delegates
to the fortieth annual convention of
the American Banking Association be-
fore adjournment yesterday afternoon
adopted resolutions favoring higher
railroad rates. The resolution was
presented by Oliver ]. Sands, president
of the American National Bank of
Richmond, and was unanimously
adopted.
The preamble sets forth that the
shock to financial and business inter-
estS of this country and the derange-
ment of foreign exchanges, resulting
from the European war, are being
overcome and the most serious condi-
tions now confronting the financial,
business and investment interests of
this country arise from the fact that
there is no market for securities and
that until this is remedied the finan-
cial exchanges cannot be reopened
and business restored to normal con-
ditions
1t was pointed out that the railroad
companies constantly had been de-
creasing rates for year, and that the
cost of operation, maintenance and
Improvements constantly had in
creased.
The resolution in part says:
THE American Bankers Associa-
ton, assembled in Richmond, Va, on
October Is, 1914, does hereby declare
that in its opinion a prompt and lib
eral increase in railroad rates
throughout the United States Is essen
tial, to enable the railroads to finance
their maturing obligations and to pro-
vide the money with which to operate,
maintain and improve their proper
ties, and that such increase in rates
must be made before we can hope to
secure the confidence of the investing
public, both at home and abroad"
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion is respectfully, but earnestly, re-
quested to act promptly and favorably
upon pending applications for increase
OF railroad rates, and, in the exercise
of its broad powers and in the dis
charge of its obligations, to protect
the interests of the railroads under
it's control.
William A. Law, first vice-president
of the First National Bank of Phila-
delphia, had been elected president

dent.

KEY PUZZLE WINNER

Out of the great number of replies
to the Baldpate puzzle, which ap-
peared in the Harrisburg Telegraph
on Wednesday, there were but two
who used the correct procedure. One
was on the right track but did not
carry the work far enough. The gen.
eral tendency on the part of those
trying for the solution seems to be a
failure to grasp Just what was meant
by finding the missing key. Out of the
entire number of replies but two used
folding method, which gives the
correct solution. For the satisfaction
of those who are interested, the cor
rect solution and the winning solu-
ton are displayed in the window of
the Harrisburg Telegraph. The win
ner of the puzzle is Miss Anna Woltz,
sos North street. Five box seats for
the evening performance await Miss
