His Treatment in House.

:. His friends in the House say that Mr..
: Martin has received nothing but rebuffs
From the democrats since he has been
shere-that is. his republican friends
-,say so. ON the other hand the demo-
Gratis warm up and say that Mr.. Martin
as at heart democrat. that he comes
-from a democratic section and a little
thing like the sugar tariff will not
stand in the way of Mr.. Martin voting
for Champ Clark as Speaker of the
next House.
3 Nevertheless. MIR. Martin was opposed
by democrat i'll the recent election.
sHn which he was successful. Not only
That. but the democrat chosen to run
sagainst him bore the same name. his
Dpponent being Wade Martin, SO that
ss'vote for Martin could be thrown
about aimlessly.
y When Martin came to Congress he
.ltook his committee assignments from
1.-The republicans and has aligned him
Itself with the republicans to such an
stextent that the stronger democratic
.spapers in Louisiana took up cam
fspaign against him, it is charged by his
s.friends One of his bitter complaints
s.is that some of the bigger papers in
k.his state refused to mention his sugar
s.speech. which he himself looked on as
! "a masterpiece.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1916-12-01
Ran on Sugar Platform.

!. Mr.. Martin was elected as a ''protec-
ttionist progressive. a platform
(which demanded protection for sugar
on which his district thrives He was
!. detected as an angry retort to the DEM
socrats for refusing to listen to the plea
.of the third district of Louisiana for
protected sugar, and to all political
/, students since he has maintained a
, constant defense against the attacks of
democrats throughout the entire state
.of louisiana
: Now that the democrats claim the
next House by three, and the repub-
.licans claim that 21S votes will be cast
FOR republican Speaker when the next
congress opens in December. 1917. the
claims are so close that it begins to
.look like Representative Withheld r
Martin would hold a large section of
the balance of power. 1t looks very
much as if Martin might name the next
Speaker. and whether or not he holds
quite so much power. both parties must
sbe very. very good TO him. or he will
get sore and stay mad for keeps

HOUSEWIVES CURE OWN MEAT
German Invention That is Proving OF
Importance in the FstherIand
Just Now.

In the present time Of economic DIFF
ficulty In Germany many housewives
are confronted with the problem OF ne
cumulating such stores of preserved
meat as possible, for that article Of
food is scarce. A new housewife de-
vice has been invented, however
which serves admirably to this end
The apparatus consists of lac
quered cylinder, which Is provided
with an interior dividing wall separat-
ing both halves of the cylinder One
portion is designed to hold the meat
to be smoked, while the other is for
the passage of smoke.
Underneath is small Cylinder
which serves to admit the smoke. This
Is so constructed that the smoke must
first pass through the transmission
compartment and enter the smoking
compartment from above, in order TO
return finally to the fireplace. That
an even distribution Of the smoke may
be achieved there Is perforated plate
above the smoking compartment in
the large cylinder. This also serves
to prevent the entrance of particles of
SCOT and dirt. Two rings are pro-
vided on which to support the meat
