Attbe same time the Mis sourian is tactful and has avoided the odium that comes from too per sistent objections. Then Mr. Dock- ery has a number of supporters io the house who aid him iu carrying on his fights “Representative Maddox has some of the qualifications to succeed Mr Dockery’s role in the next congress He has been a member of the house for six years and has the habit of following the proceedings closely His utterances are not as forceful as those of the Missourian He has the same plain, everyday notions about the honesty and unpretentious economy as Representative Dockery and enjoys the substantial esteem of members on both sides of the house Judge Maddox has not beld as high committee positions as Representa- tive Dockery, which in a way bandi caps him. The Missourian’s services on the appropriations committee has given him an unusual advantage for seeing the inside of legislation.” men on SHOT ON STAND, Terre Hante Fireman In His Own Behalf, stifyiog Terre Haute, Ind., Feb. 9.—A meeting of the fire committee of the city council late yesterday after- noon at fire headquarters broke up which two was shot. in a shooting affray. in men, one @ councilman, The committees met to try a colored fireman, Fred Scott, on charges pre- ferred by George Clark, also colored.
