JAMES DOOMED FOR HIGH HONOR

Washington, Nov. 2S-The Washing
ton Times. an afternoon paper owned
by Frank A. Munsey, published the fol-
lowing story:
Senator Ollie M. James, of Ken
tucl1y, the biggest man and one of the
youngest in the upper branch of Con-
gress, is being powerfully supported
for president pro tempore of that body
There is no doubt about the Demo-
Gratis controlling the next Senate; but
the death of Senator Clarke of Arkan-
sas. makes it necessary that new
president pro tenn, shall be chosen. This
position will be unusually important,
partly because the Progressive Repub-
lican element will frequently be needed
to Offset defections of conservative
Democrats and finally because it will
be of supreme Importance that the Sen
ate be under direction that will keep 1t
from failing utterly and of working
harmony with the House that may be
Republican, and 1t is certain to be very
close.
