CONGRE SoMAN ROBSON HITS
HARD AT COURIER JOURNAL
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,

IS politically, he sought new fields of
conquest. He enlisted, but not in
the war. He did not rush the Ger
mans at Argonne Forest, Belleau
wood. or Chauteau-Thierry, but he
did make a rush for the hand and
fortune of the aged widow of Mr..
Tlagler, the oil magnate of New
York and Florida. (Laughter) Be-
ing much younger and much more
active, of course, he outstripped the
good woman. in the race and went
lover the top" (Laughter.) But how
did Mr.. Bingham become the owner
and publisher of the Courier-Jour-
nal and the Louisville Times?
A former law partner and good
friend of Mr.. Bingham prepared a
codicil for Mr.. Bingham's wife, by
which Mr.. Bingham was to receive
"a bonus" at her death of $4,000,
600.
His wife dying suddenly after this
codicil was made, Mr.. Bingham came
into possession of this bonus"
(Laughter.) He bought these two
newspapers. He did not possess the
energy, Drawn, or brains to acquire.
manage, or CONTROL and newspaper.
He could not have bought a small
part of either of them. 1t was a sad,
sad day for the Courier-Jonrnal
when the rich widows millions dis
placed that great editor and patriot,
Col. Henry Watterson, who was the
South's greatest editor and at one
time an honored member of this
House, and set up in his stead this
Mr.. Bingham. He is publisher and
editor of the Courier-Journal, solely
by grace of the bonus" he received
from the rich widow. CLaughter.)
In Kentucky today neither the Re-
publicans nor the Democrats have
any faith in the politics or political
policies of the Coureir-Journal as
managed by Mr.. Bingham. While
the Courier-Journal poses as a DEM
ocratic newspaper, the friends of
that party in Kentucky know that it
and Mr.. Bingham constantly stab the
party in the back They look out for
the bonus" Last fall they charged
a Democratic United States Senator
of Kentucky and the party large
sum to print speech of that Demo-
cratic Senator made in behalf of
and in the interest of the Democratic
ticket for governor and other State
officers.
We can see that the Courier-Jour-
nal and Mr. Bingham are not oppos-
ed to a bonus" on principle. They
are in favor of a "bouns" if it is
large enough and is going to one
of them. daughter and applause.)

Mr.. Robsion of Kentucky.

Mr.. Robson OF Kentucky.
Mr. Speaker and gentlemen OF the
House, l will say in the beginning
that am not seeking to criticize
anybody's vote or to defend my own
vote.
On May 81, 1920. there appeared
in the Courier Journal, of Louisville
KY, an editorial. in which was made
the charge in substance, tn a t
the American soldiers of the World
War were willing to sell themselves
for. this bonus legislation, and that
the Members Of Congress who voted
for II were willing to buy them, and
the deal was consumated by casting
our votes for it. The Speaker OF
this House is belittled and, ridiculed;
4his body as whole is held up to
scorn, and the Kentucky delegation
in the House were denounced as COW
ards. | deny all of these charges
and denounce them as vile ISLANDERS,
willful and malicious lies. Applause
know no man more faithful, hon
est, or honorable than our worthy
Speaker ever occupied this exalted
position. (Applause.) / never before
found a body of men more honorable
or courageous than the men who
make up the membership of this
House. 1t is true that we may not
see the irrigation question as those
who live in the West, the merchant
marine question as those who live
in the East, the commercial problems
as those who live in the North or
the agricultural problems as those
who live in the South, but must
those who differ from US be denounc-
ed as liars and crooks? l see men IL
this House who speak and vote for
measures in the interests of the well
fare of the whole Nation when they
know that 1t will lessen their chances
of reelection in their own districts.
(Applause.)
Mr.. Robert Worth Bingham, some
times called Mr.. Bangun, is the pub
Usher and editor of the Courier Jour
nal. Now, who is this Mr.. Bingham,
who sets himself up as the mentor
and critic of the membership Of this
House and the American soldier and
sailor? At one time he claimed to
be Democrat and was elected coup
~ attorney of Jefferson County, in
which is located the city of Louis
vile. He was reelected thru the in
timidation, fraud, and ballot-box
stuffing of the worst political ma
chine with which Louisville was ever
afflicted. His election was contested
The case was carried to the highest
court of the State, made up almost
exclusively of members of his own
party. This court, in a weel consid-
cred opinion, declared that the cleo
ton was so corrupt, unlawful. and
fraudulent as to defeat the will of the
people, and Mr.. Bingham was ousted.
(Applause.)
We next hear of Mr.. Bingham run
ming for office on the Republican
ticket, but he was again repudiated
at the polls. Kentuckians looked up
on him as neither bird nor mouse.
but rather aSpolitical bat. (Laughter

itical parties and haviag made more

The fielding on both sides was

from second and Gowdy received
Holke's throw to one side and
threw himself bIndly across the
plate to meet konc:chys spikes

Only twice did Brooklyn rum

score repeatedly, but Cadore's mate
came to his rescue.
