DEMOCRATS WAIT
TO cool TEMFERs
POSTPONE Caucus Until After 4fh

HIGH Roberts in The State.

hugh ROOeTtS III 1He OIose'
Washington, Jan. 31.-Ihe Demo
cratic caucus, which promised to be
highly Interestingly may, because Ct
Dcstponement, be a ve2y tame affair.
The indications are that it will not
sc held until the night before the
convening CT the congress in extra
ordinary session.
REPRESENTATIVE Kitchin, minority
leader. declares that postponement IS
necessary in order that animosity de-
vclopca because Of .he split over the
emergency tariff bill might be dis
sipated. At the same times by the
late Of the caucus, all Of the North
crn Democrats. who stood for the
protective tariff, or "peanI.." tar;fi,
will have retired. Southern Demo
Gratis as rule voted against the bill,
and in the caucus, they will be in a
majority.
AS previously reported, Mr.. kitchln
created a storm when he declared that
noae Of the Democrats who supported
The tariff measure should be made new
members of,the ways and means COM
nitsee. He threatened 70 carry fight
to the aoor, if that exigency be prov
ed necessary, TO prevent the election
to the committee Of either Represen-
tative Jones of Virginia, or Repre-
sentative Steagall of Alabama. This
challenge greatly disturbed Represen-
tative Garner Of Texas, who, on &C
count of the illness Of NJ. Kitchln,
sspired to minority leadership. Mt
Garner ardently supported the tariff
bill and induced many other Demo-
cras to fellow suit.
1t was reported that Mr.. Garner:
aware that the majority of the mem
bcrs of the party supported the tarltf
bill. saw an opportunity to put HIM
self at the head Of this majority, and
thus oust Mr. Kitchin from leader
ship. The report proved a sensation.
There were head to head conferences
al over the capitol, and speculation
prediction ard even threats electri-
ied the air.
And then it developed that there
would be no caucus prior to the ad-
iournment of this session of congress.
In consequence, everybody seems
reconciled to the fact that Mr.. Kitchin
will win out, and that no one he op-
poses as members Of the ways and
means committee will be elected.

The Purse Strings

The purse strings of the hon

There are hundreds OF "hoaic

WHAT MEN NEED MOST :.
Is a place to put their money M.
where 1t will earn more and o.
courage them to save.
PUTTING MONEY IN
THE BANK
is too easy because men will draw
It out the very first time the,
think they need a dollar. and yer,
often when they don't need 1t.
TO SAVE MONEY
and take real pleasure in saving
1t one must have some definite OBJ
ject or purpose in view. Some
thing really important must be a;
stake.
IF THE PRIZE
Mt the "other end" Is something
that has to do with ones future
comfort then the prize is big
enough to encourage man to plan
and to save with an enthusiastic
effort.
EVERY MAN

THEREIN LIES THE WHOLE
SECRET OF SUCCESS.
There's too much running after
