REPUBLICANS TO SUPPORT CLARK
 FOR SPEAKERSHIP
Johnson Makes Up His Mind Following the QuarreIing Among
 Republicans.
CLARK SURE ELECTED

WASHINGTON, March 3O,-"If the Republicans continue their determin- ation to quarrel among themselves over the organization of the House, I propose to vote for Champ Clark for Speaker, as will many other Re. publicans. This was the emphatic and plain statement made here this afternoon by Albert Johnson, Repre-. sentative from the State of Wash. ington who arrived and was immed. ittely buttonholed by representatives of both Republican factions here who are split over House organization and the speakership.
 ouarreIs Aid Democrats
 Continued quarrcllng among the Republican factions in the United States House of Representatives in dicate that Speaker Champ Clark is almost sure of reelection and that the Democrats are likely to have 8 majority on the committee on com. mittees.
 The fight of Representative A. P, Gardner of Massachusetts against Re- publican Leader James R. Mann on account of the latter's supposed friendship for Germany and the Op- position to Mann from Western pro- gressive Republicans continues. Card ner is working with the progressive element of the Republicans in his fight against Mann. Their candidate for the Spcakership. which would carry with it the floor leadership of the minority in case the Republicans should prove to be in the minority is Representative Irvine l.. Lenroot. But there is a marked division among the anti.Mann element over domestic matters. and that further compli. cates matters.
 Miss Rankin May Aid Democrats
 Tremendous pressure is being brought to bear on Miss Jeanette Rankin. the only woman member of Congress. from her State of Montana to support President Wilson by aid. ing the Democrats to organize the House. It is known that she is an admirer of President Wilson and that knowledge of that admiration aided her in securing majority in her Congressional race at an elec- ton when the State gave President Wilson 35,OOO plurality and elected every other Democratic candidate.
 GalIavan May 5alk
 Representative J. A. Gallayan, of Boston. Mass, Democrat, is threat ening to bolt the Democratic organi- zation unless he receives assuranc- es that the prohibition tendencies of the Democratic party are curbed. He will vote for Speaker Clark and sup. port the remainder of the Democrats for position in the House, but says he will not go further if the party in- sists on giving the prohibitionists a majority of the committee on com mittees.

 The marshars office has had ab. solutely no information and received orders to hold the two men from Mir. Smiser, who acted on the tele gram which was signed by F, r Lischke, federal special officer wh, has been Investigating the robbery

CREDIT NOTICE

An examination of our books dur ing the past few months discloses where we have extended credit over the 30 day period the old accounts remain on our books. Accounts which grow so large that no busi- ness based upon fair dealing and reasonable profit can carry the bur den. Therefore, it has been deeid- ed on and after May 1, 1917, all patrons of this frm-without exeep- tion-wiII not be extended credit when an old account extending be- yong 30 days remains on our books. We desire to impress upon our customers that the constantly in- creasing cost of living is further ad- vanced by careless credits adding to the dealers yearly overhead, and tt is with view of keeping prices to the lowest limit, promoting honesty and fair dealing that this action is taken.
