Congressional Tipperary,

1t will yet Be quiet
In the Capitol up there;
Then the wordy riot
Will not agitate the air;
Then the hlibuster
Will be silent and serene;
Well find no blare and bluster
In the legislative scene
CHORUS!
It's long way to an adjournment,
It's long way to talk;
It's a long way to an adjournment
And you can't get out and walk.
Goodbye, broken fences,
You will miss our care.
It's long way to an adjournment,
But my hearts right therei
Clear to California
People wait to shake our hands;
Letters say, 1--WE warn you
Not to slight our just demands;
There's Bud Merriwether
Who we thought would make hi,
He talked fur weeks together
And he amt said nothin' yit"

OF this opposition is too obvious to

pone the operation of the bill until
1917, the purport OF which is also
plainly obvious
There is a law prohibiting sherirs
from making contracts with banks for
the deposit Of county and State funds,
and penalizing banks for entering into
such contracts with banks. The at.
tempt to have the operation OF the
act postponed until 1917 clearly re.

exist between sheriffs and the banks.
II should be the duty OF the proper Of.
ficials to ascertain where these con.
tracts exist in violation OF law, and
the offending parties punished under
the provisions Of the act. II is to
correct this very injustice that calls
for the passage Of the depository bill

for fairness end just dealing A. pres
cnt the miners are paid by the car.
and Mr.. Montgomery has prepared an
array OF facts obtained from personal
investigation showing that these cars
vary in capacity in all the mines OF
the state. As the coal H. sold by
weight, the injustice to the miner can
readily be seen. Il Is also claimed
that coal varies in weight entry coal
