,_ began his public career, _ hesota; Thomas H. Carter, of Mon- ;. What sort ofa man is Senator Port- er J. McCumber, the new chairman ot the Senate committee on finance, and the man who will be responsible largely, so far as the Senate jis con- éerned, for the success or failure of the Fordney tariff bill, soon to be en- acted into law? Who is the successor of Senator Aldrich and Senator Pen- fose in the Senate? Picture to yourself a man of medi- um. size, florid complexion, thin au- purn hair, smooth face, aquiline pro- file, small piercing eyes ant a stern countenance when in repose, and you have a mental picture of Senator Mc- Cumber. 4 ‘His biographical sketch in the Con- gressional Directory is just eighteen words, less than two lines. This is a key to his character, a composite pit- ture of his innate modesty. The ablest men are modest. A Freckled Boy. Porter James McCumber comes of pure Scotch ancestry: His father was a stern and canny Scotchman, strong of character, industrious and thrifty. His mother, also of Scotch blood, was a woman of rare qualities. Porter's parents lived in Illinois; and in that state of historic and Republican poli- tics, Porter was born, February 3, 1853. When Porter was a mere lad, his parents moved to Rochester, Min- nesota, and “farmed it” on the very site now occupied by a pair of famous surgeons. Here Porter attended pub- lic schools, and obtained his first and youthful knowledge of the “three Rs.” He was a slightly built lad, a *freckled-youngster, strong-willed, in- dependent and. proud. fe learned early the all-pervading principle that the only way to get along with a pully is to lick him, and lick him hard; that the world is full of bluff- ers and the only thing to do with such individuals is to “take ’em down The Senate’s New Chairman of Finance A: Story of the Career and a Character Outline of Porter J. McCumber, United States Senator from North Dakota, Qhosen ito Succeed Senator Penrose-as the , Finance Committee’s Head. - was the introduction of a joint res- olution for the appointment of a commission to investigate the com- mercial conditions of China and Japan. ‘The Senator was placed on the committees on claims Indian Affairs and, later, ‘pensions. Early he took a deep interest in:Indian affairs and pensions, making many able speech- es, and reporting favorably many hun- dreds of pension cases. x A Dynamle. Force It.did not take the Senate long to discover that Senator ‘McCumber was a driving and dynamic force, destined to’ play an important and conspicuous part in large affairs, He was a hard workér, an omnivorous reader, a close student and a clear thinker. Not an orator, he spoke in slow deliberate manner; never spectacular, he drove home his points with powerful logic; never nebulous, he argued’ in a straight line and with convincing clarity. ‘In two years he was looked upon as one of the leaders on the Repub- lican side, and a coming man. His first real speech was on the armor plate provision of the naval appro- priationg bill of 1900. Hg demonstrat- ed his independence by questioning the figures of some of the “old hands” cn the naval committee, and by call- ing attention to the undue profits in the manufacture of armor plate. ‘Senator McCumber'’s’ tendency to- ward temperance and his long train- ing in prohibition fights in North ‘Dakota, revealed itself again, when in January, 1901, he discussed the can- teen proposition in the military es- tablishment bill. He said he “favored a trial of the canteen without ~ the sale of intoxicating drinks.” amendment proposed was to give per- mission to sell beer in the canteens. Perhaps one of the measures for by thrashin’ ’em.” It was not a peace- ful course to pursue, but it was ef- fective, and ‘has always been, in all periods ,ot history. ‘Young Porter em- bodied: the’ subsequent Roosevelt! theory, “speak softly and carry, a big stick.” Porter found himself and made progress when he adopted this prin- ciple as his own, and stood up for himself, with his fists, whenever ne- cessary. Thus the lad grew to early manhood, and developed the qualities of self-reliance, perseverance and in- dependence, which characterized his whole life. ‘Farming was a struggle in those days, ag it has been ever, when con- ducted on a small scale. Young Port- er boldly started for Ann Arbor Uni- versity and a legal career, when he felt himaelf prepared. He worked his way through the university, practical- ly, and graduated, with honors. “Not Much Law Business. Lawyer McCumber hung out his first shingle in a small country town called Lisbon, North Dakota, in’ the Red River Valley, then just opening. There was.little law business in that section, and what there was, was sup- plemented with collections and loan- ing of money. It was hard sledding, but the young attorney was frugal and saved a little money. With a view of improving his pros- pects, he moved to Wahpeton, Rich- Jand County, a more promising city, now a place of 3,500 people. Here he covering a period of about forty years, and mea- suring up to most of the successes of his time. , Very naturally he entered politics from the very start. He was a‘ strong Republican, and took part in all local and state political campaigns. ~ He went through the greenback and free silver periods, remaining steady and firm for the gold standard. In the try- ing times of the eighties, and in:the critical year 1896, Porter J. McCumber stood firm, in the. midst of wild tagraaian economic fallacies. ‘His activity and sanity on all pub- lic and political matters attracted the attention of the Republican leaders and in the course of time, he was nominated the ‘Republican candidate for county attorney, on the platform “enforce the law.” North Dakota was a prohibition’ state, and Richland County a prohibition county. McCum- ber was elected triumphantly, where- upon he proceeded to enforce ‘-the Jaw. This course of action,: highly moral:and proper though it was, re- sulted in his defeat for re-election by a sinall plurality, again demonstrat- ing the truth in the old saying that public men, who “do things’ and en- force the law, dig their own graves, as a rule. “Do-nothings in public life too often: reap’ the highest rewards. ‘They are not vulnerable. Victory in Defeat Yet how often the defeat of 3 rising politician becomes the ladder by which he climbs to fame. Lincolr’s defeat for the Senate by Douglas, was the step leading to the White House. So, Porter McCumber’s fearless and honest course as county attorney, albeit leading to defeat for re-elec- tion, proved to be his making. He was picked. by the Republican lead- ers, boomed for United States Sena- tor, and elected by the State Legis- Jature in January, 1899, taking his seat March 4, following. In that Senate wene many of the ieading public men whose — names were, and are today, familiar to all students of political history. There were: Joan T. Morgan, of Alabama; Henry ¥. Teller, of Colorado; Joseph R. Hawley, of Connecticut; Sheldon M. Cullom, of Illinois; Charles W. Fairbanks, of Indiana; William B. Allison, of’ Iowa; Wm. P. Frye and Eugene Hale, of Maine; George F. Hoar and Henry Cabot Lodge, of ‘Massachusetts, James McMilan, of Michigan; Cushman K. Davis, of Min- tana; John M. Thurston, of Nebraska; William E. Chandler and Joseph H. Gallinger, of New Hampshire; Chaun- cy M. Depew, of New York; Joseph B, Foraker and Mark Hanna, of Ohio; and Nelson’ W. Aldrich, of Rhode Island. ‘Senator McCumber entered Con- gress at a time when the questions of the hour were those resulting from the war with Spain. Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines were topics of public. discussion. The United which Senator McCumber will be re- membered longest, is the pure food law. He ig the father of the present national pure food laws, and began the fight in April, 1902, when he was chairman of the committee on manu-|troduced a resolution in the Senate} 95.44, factures. On the 25th of that month, he made his great opening speech on the question, in which he said: “Mr. President, this is not a question which | affects alone the health and purse of the people. It is a thousandfold great- er than this. It affects. the manhood) States and her associates in of the American people, their honesty, their truthfulness, their sincerity, their ideals. It affects all that makes or tends to make a nation great and powerfu!, and which blesses it. with longevity if not perpetuity.

Throughout the American partici- pation in the World War, Senator The|McCumber stood loyally by the Pre- sident. He was a one-hundred per cent’ American. He supported the war measures proposed by the ag ministration, and voted for the sifi- ews of war required to win the war. In October, 1918, when there was talk of “peace by compromise, and at any price,” Senator McCumber in- reciting that “there shall be no ces- sation of hostilities, and no armistice until the Imperial’ German govern- ment shall disband its armies and surrender its arms and ammunition, together with its navy, to the United this war.” The resolution laid down rigid conditions of surrender and: armis- tice, involving complete reparation by Germany. ‘Throughout this period, ‘Senator McCumber’s speeches were the embodiment of patriotism and Americanism..

The Senator made an exhaustive analysis~of fraud in the adulteration of food, of dishonest. practices, of the manufacture of “food” which proved poisorious. He made a practical, leg- al, and altogether powerful _argu- ment. ~The fight over the pure fopd ques- tion was long and bitter, extending over four years: It was re-introduced by Senator Heyburn, and became a law; yet it was the original McCum- ber bill, under another name. The North Dakota Senator assisted ma- terially in the enactment of the Hay-|'Republicans were with him, but he stood his ground and made a mag-| + burn pill. : Another national _ measure - for! which Senator McCumber will be re- membered long ig the law providing for. the fixing of a standard of classi- fication and grading of wheat, flax, corn, oats, barley, rye .and other grains. In an amended form, the McCumber bill became a Jaw, and is! law today. In March, 1904, Senator McCumber made a great speech on} this grain inspection bill “to check the disintegrating and deteriorating influence on the character of the peo- ple in- our great and densely popu- lated cities.” The Senator was prompted to get behind this legislation., ,because. of the unfair treatment which the farm- ers of the northwest claimed they re- ceived at the hands-of the grain buy- ers and the elevator. owners of the large shipping centers; The fight over this measure was long and bitter. The “grain” crowd,” as they were called, made a ‘terrific fight; but the farmers won meas- urably, and secured a law, which has! ‘been: beneficial, although not’ ‘all they desired. ee It is interesting to, note right..here that while Senator MeCumber has al-| ways sympathized with ths farmers! of the northwest in their long strug- gle’ for a “square deal,” he ‘has :al- ways made his fights; within the Re- publican party. He has never joined the, “Non-Partisan League.”’He is a Republican. i Fights For Re-election. :»: -« The Senator had ‘a hard fight for right. The defeat of Senator Hans- boro, of North Dakota, for re-electtén in 1909, made a vacancy -on the ‘fi- nance committee of the Senate, and for this vacancy Senator: McCumbér was selected. Here the North- Dakota Senator found an opportunity to dem- onstrate his fitness for’ work “along tariff lines. The Payne tariff bill was in process of preparation, and Sena- tor McCumber immediately took an active part in the work of the finance committee. Through -his-efforts, it is said, lumber was placed on the ‘free list. He argued that “‘sinee the; nation is’ willing to spend so: much. money to save. and preserve the’ American forests, it should- hot encourage the cutting of American trees by check- ing imports of lumber from Canada.” The Seriator favored Cuban reci- Procity, and opposed. Canadian - reci- procity. In this. .he ‘showed his deep interest in the welfare of the farmers | of the northwest, especially wheat growers, the Senate leaders. Whenever he spoke on an important subject, he had’ an attentive» audience. He said something, always. He .made notable erican shipping, cotton; currency, the trade commission, Panama Canal tolls, and the tariff: His wide - and accurate knowledge of the great questions of the hour, stamped him one of the big men of ‘his time.

Committee, and an -au- thority on the tariff’and finance. The veteran Senator Penrose was the only member to outrank him. Senator MoGumber's first battle of 1920-21 was over. the emergency tariff. _ In this debate he crossed swords with the leading Democrats in the Senate, such as Underwood, Simmons and Harrison. Not all .the nificent fight to protect the agricul-| tutists of the West and the North- west. He won, and the emergency tariff bill became a law. It served as a stop-gap and saved many farmers and producers from a faté far more disastrous than what actually Over- ‘took them. i ‘Senator McCumber ‘is a . sturdy friend of the American veterans of the World War.He stood tack of a veterans’ service bill which bears his name ‘and would have put it through higher authority advised to the con- trary. However, the Senator expects to see the principal of his soldiers’ bonus’ bill enacted into law this ses- sion’ of 'Congréss. ‘The death of Senator: Penrose au- tomatically promotes «Senator Mc- ‘Cumber to the position of: chairman of the most ‘powerful committee in the Senate, and makeg the North Da- kota: Senator the -Republican leader in.the Senate, in. all matters /pertain- ing to the tariff and finance.
