CANNON GIVEN THE GLAD HAND Bemarkable Ovation for Vet | eran Speaker. CHAMP CLARK APPLAUDED Democrats Hail Missouri Member as the Presiding Officer of the Next House—Early Adjournment of Con- gress Taken Out of Respect for Mem- bers Who Have Passed Away Dur- Ing Past Recess. ‘Washingion, Dec. 6.—Speaker Can- non received a remarkable ovation when he took up the gavel to announce the opening of the session of the house. The applause lasted several minutes and the Democrats joined with the Republicans in acclaiming the veteran legislator. Representative ~ Champ Clark also was given a similar ova- tion when he entered immediately on the conclusion of the prayer, the Demo- erats hailing him as the speaker of the next house. Both houses adjourned almost im- mediately after the formal assembling calls of the rolls and the adoption of resolutions on the passing of those members who have died since the ad- Journment of the last session. On the house side Representatives Tirrell of Massachusetts, Gilmore of Louisiana and Foulkrod of Pennsylva- nia are dead. Successors of most of the late members of the.two branches | elready have been chosen. Several vacancies also will be re- corded in the present house by reason of political preferment, Mr. Foss of Massachusetts retiring to become gov- ernor of Massacliusetts and Mr. Tener and Mr. Reynolds, both ot Pennsylva- nia, retiring to become governor and lieutenant governor, respectively, of that commonwealth. Big Crowd at Capitol. An impelling curiosity to see how men, long in the public eye as states- ~men of commanding influence, would Dear Up i {he crumpiing of their political fortunes drew to the Capitol at an early hour a crowd of unusual proportions. 2 Early work -on appropriation bills has cleared the way for prompt con- sideration of those measures on the floors of the two houses. The bills ap- propriating many millions of dollars for the Indian service, for the legisla- tive, executive and judicial depart- ments of the government generally and for the District of Columbia, | whose expenses are borne jointly by the federai and municipal govern- | ments, are well advanced, and one or more of them may be reported to the | house this week. The avowed inten- i tion is to hurry these bills along as fast as possible to avoid any hitch in providing for the expenditures of the government and strenuous efforts have been made by President Taft and oth- er administration leaders to keep the budget down to the lowest point pos- sible. The greatest danger from influenza is of its resulting in pneumonia This can be obviated by using Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, as it not only cures influenza, but coun- teracts any tendency of the disease toward pneumonia.

T0 LET COURTS DECIDE Members of Minneapolis Delegation, Interested in Liquor Situ’ation in In- dian Country, Prefer to Let Problem Work Itself Out Through Regular Channels—Order to- Be Over Entire Territory. Enforced Washingion, Dec. 6.—According to statements made by members of the Minnesota delegation there is no in- tention on the part of any of them to offer bills bearing on the ligquor sit- uation in the Indian country of the state. Senator Clapp, chairman of the committee on Indian a said he has given little thought to the matter and that at present he hkad no inten- tion of offering a measure bearing on the questicn. The disposition of the Minnesotans is to keep hands off and let the problem work itself out, prefer- ably through the courts. Representative Steenerson, a part of whose district lies in the region af- fected, said: . “T would like to see this questicn go to the courts.” Another member of the dofegation expressed the belief that the treaties do not place a ban on b sioner Valentine appear: before the house committee on Indian affairs tell the committee about'the a ties of “‘Pussyfoot” Joh sota during the past year. The comuiittee is not disposed to act on the case unless requested to do so by Representative Miller of Duluth who is a member of the committee, or other members of the Minneapolis dele- gation. The indications are that the Ballin- ger order will be enforced over all of the territory to which it applies, pend- ing a determination of the question in the courts. The government will soon file test cases .in the federal courts. The peculiar properties of Cham- berlain’s Cough Remedy have been thoroughly tested during epideniics of influenza, and when it wastaken in time we have not heard of a single case of pneumonia.

Marshalltown, Ia., Dee. 6.—Within the next ninety days the forces of temperance and of the saloon will be entered in what gives promise of be- ing one of the most stubborn. fights over the trafic ever waged in the state. On July 1, 1911, all the mulct peti- tions in the various cities and towns of the state that are wet expire and under them the saloons in those places can no longer operate. Before that date it will be necessary for the saloons in all of these places to cir- culate new petitions of consent, which must have a majority of the names of all the voters who voted at the last preceding election. ! The saloon forces, backed by the brewery interests, are aligning their strength in preparation for the circu- lation of these petitions. The law gives the saloonists omly thirty days in which to.get signatures on peti- tions and, if they fail, other petitions cannot be circulated until the next calendar year.

Robber Kills Woman in McLeod Coun- ty, Minn. Hutchinson, Minn., Dec. 6.—Mrs Frank Simon, sixty years old, wife of a farmer living at Swan Lake, two miles from Silver Lake, in McLeod county, was murdered by a robber, who en- tered her home and demanded money of her and her husband. Mr. Simon said that the robber came to the door, demanded admittance, pushed by Simon, who advanced to meet him, and immediately went up- stairs.

The battle of the herrings was the comical name given to a fight between an English force and a French detach-’ ment not far from Orleans in 1429. The English were conveying a large quantity of supplies, mainly herrings, for it was Lent, to the army that was besieging Orleans. The English had 1,600 men, the French 6,000. The for- mer repulsed the assailants and saved the herrings, so the battle was named in honor of the supplies. o Willing to Take Them Back.
