REASON By Ff IAsbIs

TT was sad day for this senatorial investigation
l. when Senator CaraWay of Arkansas charged Grun-
dy of Pennsylvania with being yellow then rushed to
his SIDE casped his hand and with palpitating heart
assured that ancient lobbyist of his undyng regard
Whether this outburst of fraternalism was just a
mighty surge of Arkansas hospitality whether Cara
way saw cyclone gathering in the Grundy eye as its
proprietor pushed back his chair we do not know but
do know that he who would investigate the sup
posed enemies of his country must preserve the iu-
sion of being unrelenting.
The moment such an iuquistor goes too far and
is compelled to back up, that moment he is so
when Caraway dashed forth too hard against Grumpy
and ended by gathering daisies for him. he became
total loss and if this investigation amounts to any
thing Caraway should resign from it and make way
for some one whois carnivorous, but cautious.
WYE believe Caraway should resign for the further
w reason that his method of attack makes friends
for the whom he would hold up for our disap-
proval.
The natural sympathy one has for person being
roughly cross-examined by lawyer has made Grumpy
a sort of hero with many who started out wishing
they might nail his hide to the barn door.
You know how it is in law suit. If lawyer tears
into witness making him feel uncomfortable and
bombardng him with epithets and viciousness, you
see the jury set its jaws, not only because it
SympathizeS with the oppressed but because many OF
its members have been cross examned themselves
Then again this committee has lost many friends
who started with it because it has wasted hours in
silly chatter with Grundy and other witnesses about
matters which by the widest stretch of imagination
could not be regarded as of public Importance.
TAKE the hours that its members discussed with
Il Grundy his statement that some states were
backward and should not be given equal voice with
their forward neighbors.
To discuss that foolish if the senators
should have discussed with Grundy the wisdom of
ones cutting out meat and vegetables and living
tirely on nuts.
There are many things which the committee
might with profit to the country, investigate such
the vicious method Of passing laws which distribute
advantages to various sections of the country though
be 1t known such methods not the peculiar nfamy
of this congress- but have been in existence ever since
the government organized
In all our national life have not had one river
and harbor bill; public building bill or general

has not been matter of nationwide bribery, enough

Little Egypt"

Down in the southern pocket of Illinois, where the
Ohio river joins its pellucid waters to those of the
mighty Mississippi there is group of counties that
comprise what the rest of calls Little Egypt
The name is taken from the rich alluvia soil that
makes this section of finest farming regions.
These counties comprise also the twenty-fifth
Illinois congressional district represented for many
year by Congressman Edward Everett Denson.
Congressman Denison yesterday indicted by a
federal grand jury the charge Of possessing liquor
specifically one trunk full and suitcase full of
liquor shipped from New York to his Office in Wash
ington.
Now we propose to remain open-minded on the
question of Congressman Denson's guilt until the
matter is decided in court. But doubt if our
commendabe restraint will shared in all its ethical
beauty by the people in the Illinois delta district.
It's like this down there in the delta. In the sum-
mer time the sun beats down little harder than most
anywhere In the winter the cold winds sweep across
a little cruelty OF a summer evening when the
last chore done and the honest husbandman tudges
homeward there's nothing that appeals to his imag-
nation much cool glass of beer.
And when the chill winter evenings on he
likes the idea of short shot of whisky to ward off
the effects of fatigue and exposure. The people of
Little Egypt are said to be like that. In 1926 they
voted wet in the statewide liquor referendum.
buG UIley have "lI1ohy dlu GlIcy Coll Y
have their beer.
Congressman Denison has said they can't They
couldn't get it by mail after 1917; Congressman Den
son voted for the law that forbade shipping liquor
across state lines They couldn't get it during the
war; Congressman Denison voted for wartime prohi
bition. They lost all hope after 1919; Congressman
Denison voted for the eighteenth amendment; he
voted for the Volstead act voted to override Pres
ident Wilson's veto.
Congressman Denison believed liquor was bad for
his people and he voted dry-dry-dryI Not only that
but when booteggers began to spring up in city
alley and behind every county fence, Congressman
Denson bent himself ercely to the task of saving his
constituents all again He voted for everything
the Anti-Saloon League could devise to keep rum from
running freely the parched fields of his dis
trict.
Finally he voted last winter for the exalted Jones
f1ve-andte law, imposing fearful penalties for sale
and transportation of the alcoholic ev-although not
for possession of same
Well, Congressman Denison has been indicted for
Observation-Disclosures of trunk full and suitcase
full of whisky and GIN
We hope the thirsty constituents of the congress-
man as they gather about the cracker barrels tonight
will endeavor to remain calm; that they will remem-
Der that an indictment is not conviction. And if
congressman they will not condemn him too bitterly.
They should remember that while he himself may
have fallen he has kept them pure and undeiled.
