WASHINGTON POLITICAL SIDESHOW .
SEEKS 1896 G. @. P. CANDIDATE

Vandenberg was impressed and
had thought much and in one or
two instances even talked of the
desirability of rallying the party to
Borah and the Constitution for
1896.
1t does not signify immodesty
that the Michigander thought no
might we'll be Borah's running
mate and if elected preside for
four years over the United States
senate as vice-president. But that
fair prospect vanished when to his
defense of the Constitution, Borah
a fortnight later added a demand
for immediate cash payment of the
bonus and enactment of the Fra
2ier-Lemke bill to aid mortgage
burdened farmers. There is a little
matter of $3,000,000,000 of printing
press money involved in the Fra
zier-Lemke mill. Vandenberg is no
currency inflationist - wouldn't
vote for a dollars worth of print
ing press money.
McNary "Out"
IF" is the word that destroys
most Presidential candidates.. Sen.
Charles L. McNary might some
say most certainly would-be the
Republican nominee next year if
he were from Illinois or some other
populous state instead of Oregon
which casts a scanty five votes in
the electoral college.
Virginia's Senator, Harry F.
Byrd would be likely Democratic
nominee if Roosevelt forces lost
convention next year. Sen. Huey P.
Long might go further in national
politics If he had more self-control,
less ego. Hard-boilid New York re-
porters were shocked the other day
at Longs description of President
Roosevelt. You saw only an expur-
gated version in your family news
paper.
Here is proof that senatorial
courtesy is of the Alphonse and
CASTOR variety:
Senators voted the other day on
amendments to the Agricultural
Adjustment Act to keep the stream
of checks pouring into farmers
pockets. Iowa'S Republican sena-
tor, L. j. Dickinson, bitter critic
of all "new deal" ventures and, in
deed, a possible Republican nomi-
nee next year, did not vote. Nor
did any senator follow the usual
custom which is to announce that
an absentee is paired" with some
opposing senator but if present
would have voted one way or the
other.
Dickinson was paired with Illi-
nois' Democratic Dieterich.
Iowa got the biggest share Of
corn-hog checks from AAA's me-
chanical check writer's A vote
against that golden stream might
be political suicide for farm belt
politician. Dickinsons pair with
Dieterich had the practical effect
of keeping both senators off the
political spot. Asked how he would
have voted on AAA if he had not
been paired, Dickinson refused to
say. But he surprised reporters with
this remark:
"I do not want to embarrass
Senator Dieterich."
Seldom do senators of one politi-
cal faith so cherish and safeguard
the feelings of an opposition sem
ator.

UNCLE wIGGILYs FUNNY FISH

Nurse Jane Fuzzy WuzZy, the
muskrat lady housekeeper in Uncle
Wiggily's summer cottage, was run

fast. She had looped her long tail
over one paw so she wouldn't trip
on it and she was saying over and
over again:

Took what?" asked Uncle Wig
gily, who was getting ready to go
adventuring. What is gomez"
My new hat with red roses on
it." answered Nurse Jane. Il put
it on the bureau in my room and
now it's gone. I mean my hat IS
gone. My room is still there but my
new hat isn't. Oh, who could
have taken my lovely hat with red
roses on it?"
Just a second now, Miss Fuzzy
Wuzzy," said Uncle Wiggily kindly.
Let me ask you this: Were, the
windows Of your room open when
your new hat was on the bureau?"
Why, yes, of course" answered
the muskrat lady. This is summer

asked Nurse Jane. Il thought you
