KNOW ALL PRIVATE AFFAIRS, Wallace Bassford Has Been a Politi- cal Associate of Speaker Clark For Eighteen Years, and He Signs Most of the Missourian’s Official and Per- sonal Letters. By ARTHUR W. DUNN. Washington, June 1.—[Special.]—Ev- { ery man in public life should have an understudy, or at least a man who can take hold of his political business and take care of it during his absence or illness. Many men owe their contin- ued success in public life to the fact that they have some efficient man looking after their interests. There are several United States sen- ators who would not know where to turn were it not for the men who have full and complete knowledge of their affairs and can answer every letter and attend to all business save only that which is performed in the senate chamber. Up to the time he left the senate Senator Hale of Maine had such a man in the late Pitman Pulsifer. The same is true of Senator Frye. for whom Woodbury Pulsifer attends to al) busi- ness and has made it possible for Maine to have the services of her venerable senior senator even when he has been confined to his home by illness. . Indispensable Assistants. Joseph’ A. Breckons has such a grasp of the official affairs of Senator War- ren that the latter can look after his vast business interests and still satis- factorily attend to his senatorial du- ties. John J. Hannan is almost indis- pensable to Senator La Follette. For eighteen years Wallace Bassford has been associated with Champ Clark, and so well does he know the political interests of the speaker that Mr. Clark plenty all the letters that are sent out from his room, nor does he ever read balf the mass of correspondence that is piled into the speaker’s room. There are many other men in public life who lean heavily upon some bright and intelligent assistant in caring for public and political affairs. Changed His Mind. Senator Sutherland of Utah tells a story to show how he changed his mind when he was quite a young man. It was the first Christmas after | be was married, and be went about | looking into different shops seeking a | present which he thought would suit Mrs. Sutherland. Finally he saw a sealskin coat in a window which he thought she ought to have. He went ! in and priced it. When the clerk said $500 the young benedict nearly col- lapsed. “] think 1 compromised on a plush album costing $2.50," said the Utah | senator in telling the story. H “I really think 1 have that album | yet,” remarked Mrs. Sutherland. Whiskers Take Time. Woile the war between whiskara end | sine. bald heads continues to rage. evidence on one side or the other is being gath- ,ered. A baldheaded scout, pursuing | Mr. Justice Hughes, who has brought more whiskers to the supreme bench than any man in a quarter of a cen- tury, traced him to a barber shop re- cently and really thought he obtained a big chunk of evidence for his side. If Hughes should sacrifice those whisk- jers it would mean much to the bald- j headed end of the game. And so he j asked an attendant at the door of the shop: “Is Mr. Justice Hughes in there?” “Yes, sir.” “What keeps him so long? Is he , having his whiskers shaved off?” These queries were made with much eagerness. “No, sir: just trimmed. Most clean shaven men don’t know it; but. you see, it is harder work and takes a much longer time to trim Judges Hughes’ | whiskers than it would to swipe ’em clean off with a nice sharp razor.” One on the Banker. tee, and Senator Stone of Missouri sought to show that there were more editors, officeholders, bankers and busi- ,hess men in the delegation than farm- ,ers. And he came pretty near doing it too. In reply to a question as to bankers the farmer advocate said: “Let me tell you, gentlemen, that the last gold brick sold in Minneapolis for $25,000 was sold to a country banker. You see, there are men who are both bankers and farmers, and sometimes it is hard to distinguish them.” Bob Bailey’s Method, The new assistant secretary of the ‘treasury, Robert O. Bailey, has intro- duced a little scheme in regard to men who make recommendations for the appointment of friends to office which is interesting. As soon as the con- gressman or other man gets through Bailey turns to a phonograph, gives the Gate and name of visitor and repeats as nearly as he can everything the vis- Itor has said. He files the phonograph roll away for future reference. Occa- sionally there are men who do not like the method and beg off after having made a recommendation. Deaf lowan Killed by Train. William Banks, Sr., was struck by a passenger train at Marshall and in- stantly killed. He came down on the Great Northern train from Lynd, where he has a son living, and trans- ferred to the Northwestern. When near the Marshall depot he was walking on the ends of the ties and being deaf be did not hear the approaching en- He was about seventy years old. His home is at Algona, Ia.

There is water to spare in the St. Louis river and its tributaries. UTILITY STRAIN, S. C. WHITE ORPHINGTONS Egg Producers and Prize Winners Mrs. H.{E. Abell, Stevenson, Minn.
