At one point he created a diversion by presenting the credentials of Senator-elect Vare of Pennsylvania, starting a long argument. At another he swung into a discussion of the alien | property bill, bearing down on con- troversial points so t his fili- buster was prolonged by frequent | interruptions, many of them from | those Senators who stand solldly hehind his opponent, Reed of Mis- sourd.
