COUZENS NOT
ONE TO LIKE
SPANKING
Senator From Michigan Very
Much Offended by Senator
From Utah
BY CHARLES p. STEWART
(CnAcial Cnrrnsrron dontN


Washington, Feb. 23.--No man as
big as Senator James Couxens Of
Michigan likes being spanked, partic-
ularly in public. 4
True, it was parliamentary. not a
physical. spanking.
Nevertheless, Senator Couzens is
thoroughly sore about it, and, believe
you him, he won't get over it until
he gets good and even.
1t all began with speech COuzcns
wanted to make in the Senate in
favor Of continued income tax pub
licity.
Senator Sm0Ot of Utah wanted in
come tax publicity abolished.
Smoot was in a hurry, too. He was
anxious for vote, without waiting
for any of Couzens' oratory.
Speech Not Given
Couzcns isn't, and doesn't pretend
to be, much of q parliamentarian. The
Utah senator's shark at it.
Somehow or other. as result Of
some parliamentary hokus.pokus that
Couzens didn't get onto until too
late. vote actually was forced be-
fore he'd had chance to express
himself, and income tax publicity was
knocked out. leaving his speech secth-
ing inside him.
Whether or not Smoot really meant
to flim-flam him is question. He
says he didn't. Couzens, however,
doesn't believe it.
Couzens is q plain, blunt man, and
the way he voiced his dissatisfaction
left nothing to the Imagination.
II consider that ! was tricked by
the senator from Utah." he pro-
claimed, and then he proceeded to
serve notice that that was the last
time he'd fall into any trap set by
that particular fellow legislator, for
in q parliamentary sense, he wasn.t
going to have any more to do with
him.
Here was where he let himself in
for his spanking.
Dawes Scores
Vice President Dawes, as all the
world knows, isn't q bit friendly ia
speech making. except his own, and
probably he was very we'll pleased
that Couzens had been euchred out
of his chance to indulge in some:
Senator Reed of Missouri gave him
n chance to rub it in. Reeds q stick
Ter for the upper house rules, which
don't permit one senator to roast an.
other one in anything but the most
Diplomatic language. Scandalizcd al
the boldness with which Couzens was
breaking them. he made the point OF
order that the latter must quit it.
Dawes joyfully agreed and told
Couzens to subside Immediately.
How mad Couzens was may be
Judged from his answer. little lat
er. when Dawes offered to let him &c
ahead again, if he'd behave. 81.
"In the contcmptuous mood I'm in
at present, couldn't do it. ne re,
Joined, and that was the last word
out of him in that number OF the
Congressional Record: -, 80.
There won't be any duel, but neither
will there be any Damon and Pyth'as
business for some time, between sen
tor Smoot of Utah.
Also, score one for Vice President
Dawes, as a presiding officer.

DEATH TAKES
FIFTH VICTIM
AT DICKINSON
DR.. Banks, Of North Dakota
University, Is Preparing
His Report

Dickinson. N. d., Feb. 23--tP)-
Funeral services we're conducted here
today for Sister Secundia, the fifth
nun at st. Joseph's hospital here to
die from an unexplained cause in two
weeks.
Sister Thcocara. the fourth victim.
was bGricd Monday in the Hillside
plot, where the three sisters VINO
preceded her in death were buried.
Dr.. II. VI. Banks, dean Of the school
of medicine at the University OF
North Dakota, was preparing his re-
port today for the coroner after
post norton examination of the body
or Sister Iheocara.
Report Ready in a Week
DR.. Banks said that he's report
would be ready for the coroner's jury
j about week. He declined to
mcnt on the cause of the deaths
until his report was in the hands of
the jury.
The coroner's jury will meet as
soon as the doctors report is ready
FOR consideration. An inquest was
started Sunday but discontinued Mon.
day while the medical men conducted
their investigation.
One theory, advanced by local ply
sicians prior to the arrival OF Dr.:
Banks, was that the five sisters had
inhaled fumes from wood stain used
in the decorating of new wing on
Tho hospital This stain paraiyzed
the respiratory organs Of the nurses
the physicians thought.
Wood Stain Theory Improbable
DR.. William T. Pearce. head OF the
school Of chemistry at North Dakota
Agricultural college, Fargo, expressed
The belief Monday night that this
theory was improbable. While Or.
Pearcc did not say that the deaths
could not have been caused BY FUMES
from wood stain, he Said that such
a happening would be without pre-
cedent.
The five sisters inspected the new
wing of the hospital together. Iney
were taken i'll and the deaths followed
within two weeks after the first IN
spection. ~ =.
A peculiar phase Of the case is tnat
none Of the employees at the hosp'tal'
or the workmen who appiled 'he
stain, were affected.

IS MECCA OF
POLITICIANS
Democrats, Republicans and
Independents All Gather
ing There Today

Devils Lake, N. D., Feb. 23.--tP)-
Political leaders Of the Independent
and Republican faith were gathered
in Devils Lake today for their state
conventions, beginning tomorrow.
Democrats today considered the
question of carrying on the fusion
arrangement with Republicans, a pro-
tracted session of the state commit
tee, being held during which the
issue was covered at length with
several, opposed to the fusion, in
sisting the Democrats should 60 their
own wav.
The Republican committee meets
this afternoon and the Independent
Voters association committee also
meets today to care for pre- conven-
ton matters. No change in the sit
uation has developed today.
Candidates Not Yet Arrived
Neither l.. b. Hanna nor r. A.
Ncstos, regarded as the leading cam
didates for the senatorial endorse
ment, are on the ground as yet. Mes
tos is expected in late today, while
Mr.. Hanna may not come here be-
cause of severe cold with which he
has suffered for several days.
For the governorship the name OF
John Stcen, state auditor, is being
promoted, with Frank E. Ployhar, J.
NJ. Hanley and J. F.. Davis as other
prospective candidates.
There = some sentiment for A.. NJ
Christianson, chief justice Of the
supreme court, for senator, although
this sentiment is not shared by the
Nestos delegates, who are regarded
as more likely to take Hanna as their
second choice than Christianson.

IN FAVOR OF
DEFENDANT

clared Solvent - Is a
Bona Eide Farmer

R. c. Oliver of McClusky is not
insolvent and he is a bona fide
farmer, according to decisions re-
turned by jury in federal court
here late last night on the two
points given to the jury for con-
sideration.
Creditors of Mr.. Oliver were en-
deavoring to force him into invol-
untary bankruptcy and their action
was being contested in the case
brought before, the court. The de-
PENDANT contended that he was a
farmer and therefore. under the
law, could not be forced into bank
ruptcy.
The court this morning began
trial of the case Of f. D. Fogle Of
Linton VS.. Lakeside Bridge 4
Steel company Of Milwaukee. The
plaintiff claims damages because
of the failure of the defendant to
carry cut its contract in the con-
struction Of bridge, and the de-
PENDANT has entered several coun-
ter claims. Trial of the case, ac-
cording to counsel for both sides,
will require four or five days.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY q, 1926

In his letter of resignation, the
commissioner said he felt he could
properly end his service now, as
three months had elapsed since con-
gress convened and Mr.. Coolidge had
stated that he would not be reap
pointed.
The letter declared that since the
shipping board had "reasserted its
power" over the government mer-
chant fleet after the dismissal Of
President Palmer by majority vote
of the shipping board, conditions had
improved to the point that American
shippers today are being furnished a
substantially better service, and for
eign shipping is no longer gaining
ground at the expense of the gov
eminent owned fleet"
