narrow margin and needed few votes

be justified in throwing out member
if elected, who has failed to comply
with the Federal campaign corrupt
practices act. 1t would not do to clam,
that the State law had been complied

Judge of the legality of the election

Speaking in the House March y, 1910,
Speaker Champ Clark urged that all

have proved their worth.
Speaker Ciark's Advice.
"No man." he said, should be elect
ed to the House simply to crafty his
ambition. All members should be
elected for the COOL of the country.
The best rule, it seems to me, IS for a
district to select man young enough
to learn and grow, with at least far
industrious, honest, enerrget-
&c, sober and courageous, and keep
him here so long as lie discharges his
duties faithfully and well.
Such a man will gradually rise to
the high positions and influence IL
the House His wide acquaintance
with members helps him amazingly in
doing things. We live in parlous
times. Abraham Lincoln's favorlte

M'ADOO TRIMMING EXPENSES.
Drops From PayroIIs of Railroads Al
Lobbyists and Supernumerary
Lawyers.

ashington.-William G. McAdoo,
director general of railroads, on Janu-
ary 27 issued peremptory orders to all
railroad officers and directors to cut
off Immediately from the payrolls all
legislative railroad lobbyists, super
numerary lawyers, useless railroad lit
erary associations, political payments
and all passes, intrastate as well as
interstate.
Director General McAdoo would not
discuss his sweeping order. But from
other sources the broad hint was OBJ
tanned that the possibility is very
strong that topheavy boards of direc-
tors also may be struck by the govern
ment cowcatcher.
Several million dollars will be saved
within the first year by this drastic
step, it is estimated.

man To Encourage Production and
Use of Meat Substitute.
