60 TO CAPITOL
FOR UST TIME
WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.—(Special
:orrespondence.)—Seventeen members
jf the senate and 70-odd “lame-duck”
members of the house today began
their final legislative duties. When
the spotlight fades March 4 on the
Sixty-fourth congress, they will gath
er up their togas and start for home
ind private citizenship.
These “lame ducks” are those the
populace turned thumbs down upon in
the last election. Their services ranges
inywhere from a little less than a
year, in the case of Senator Tom Tag
jart of Indiana, to 22 years in the
:ases of Senator Clarence D. Clark of
Wyoming and Representative Spark
man of Florida, Clark ranking third in
point of service in the senate and
Sparkman fourth in continuous serv
ce in the house.
Perhaps the most conspicuous figure
n the line-up of the prospective has
tens is Senator John W. Kern, one
;ime candidate for vice-president and
senate democratic floor leader and
:hairman of the powerful committee
>n privileges. He went to make way
"or Harry S. New, senator-elect from
Indian with James E.—Jim—Watson,
former whip of a recently republican
louse, who brought to an qp timely
;nd the senatorial service of “Tom”
raggart.
W. F. Kirby, of Arkansas, will suc
ceed the late Senator Clarke, who died
luring the summer. Senator Chilton
>f West Virginia, well known here for
lis interest in blooded horses as well
is for his legislative activities, will
make way for Representative Howard
Sutherland, republican, who fought
his way from the house to the senate
in two sessions.
' Senator Johnson of Maine, carried
to the senate on the democratic tide of
1910, will be succeeded next congress
by Frederick Hale, son of the late
senator from Maine.
The defeat of Senator Blair Lee of
Maryland sealed two political fates
for the present. He was defeated in
the primaries by Representative David
J. Lewis—“Father” Lewis of the par
cel post. Lewis in turn was defeated
by a republican—Dr. Joseph I. France.
Another of the old-timers listed
among the missing at the next session
will be Senator du Pont of Delaware.
Du Pont is succeeded by J; 0. Wolcott,
democrat.
Four men among the new ones are
of particular interest. Philander C,
Knox, former secretary of state and
former senator, will replace Senator
Oliver, republican, also—in the lime
light last session when he was accused
of having big war bride holdings. He
was not a candidate for re-election,
Peter Goelet Gerry, of the upper
strata of Newport, and a democrat
will succeed Senator Lippitt of Rhode
Island, republican.
Political interest will center or
Frank B. Kellogg—trust busting Kel
logg of some years back—former gov
ernor and senator-elect from Minne
stota to succeed Senator Clapp, alsc
republican; and Senator-elect Hirair
Johnson of California — succeeding
Senator Works, likewise republican
not a candidate for re-election. O!
Kellogg and Johnson there is talk thal
they won’t line up with the hard
shelled republicans unless the lining
up is done on their side of the street
The other senators now in theii
last session, with their successors, are
Martine of New Jersey, democrat
succeeded by J. S. Frelinghuysen, re
publican; O’Gorman of New York
democrat, not a candidate, succeedet
by Calder, republican; Catron of Nev
Mexico, republican, not a candidate,
succeeded by Andreus A. Jones, dom
**~ra. ’ Present assistant secretary of
the interior, and Sutherland of Utah,
republican, defeated by William H.
King, democrat.
The house, by grace of the chang
ing favor of the country, lost its two
most picturesque members and gained
j an°ther who bids fair to surpass in
popular interest and on record.
“Cyclone" Davis, foe of rum and
preparedness and friend of prohibition
and flannel shirts, will make room for
another democrat from Texas—Daniel
E. Garrett. Davis, with flowing
whiskers and conversation, gained a
measure of fame when in the Congres
sional Record he stated he was not a
“collar” democrat and when in the
house proper he later confessed he had
fallen a victim to the gay and festive
necktie. He says “booze and boodle”
i defeated him.
j “Alfalfa Bill” Murray of Oklahoma,
who jumped lightly into the gallery of
immortals when at the Baltimore con
vention, asked how the Oklahoma del
egation stood, he replied: “We stand
as a unit: separately,” will be suc
! ceeded by T. D. McKeown, democrat.
But the house’s taste for the pic
turesque will be appeased with Miss
Jeanette Rankin of Montana, republi
can, who succeeds Lame Duck Tom
Stout, democrat.
Representative Buchanan of Illinois,
democrat, indicted in the Labor’s
Peace Council probe in New York dur
ing the hyphen activities last year,
will fade into the west in favor of
Niels Juul (correct), republican. Clyde
Tavenner, democrat, of the same state,
who exchanged insults with the Navy
league all last spring, is succeeded by
William J. Graham, republican.
Charles H. Randall of Los Angeles
will continue to represent the prohi
bitionist party in congress, despite—a
tendency “repeatedly to call him a
democrat and in some cases an inde
pendent.
The political history of the next ses
sion depends on how the members hav
ing the balance of power—a prohibi
tionist, a socialist, a couple of inde
pendents and several members—who
may vote any way at all—shape up
their party preferences.
When the call is sounded for elec
tion of a speaker, the country will
find whether the house really is demo
cratic or republican.
AMBASSADOR TAKES AMERI
CAN VIEWS TO GERMANY
NEW YORK, Dec. 5.—Amtassador
James W. Gerard today sailet on the
steamer Frederick VIII, to resume
his duties at Berlin,, leaving Presi
dent Wilson determined to pursue the
same course as in the past toward
Germany.
The ambassador carried with him a
clear summary of this government’s
attitude on all questions now pending
! between Germany and the United
States, gained in conference with the
President in the first talks he has had
with the president since the war be
gan.
While here the ambassador assur
ed those with whom he talked that
the danger of certain radical ele
ments in the empire overthrowing
the influence of the German govern
ment was trifling.
Before sailing Gerard expressed
the belief that many of the belliger
ent countries—Germany at least
will do all of their buying in their
own countries.
“If our peace and prosperity is to
continue,” he told a group of New
York business men, “we mtiat give
permission for business men to com
bine for foreign trade.”
The president embodies this same
idea in his message to congress today.

Have You Had This Letter?
If a business man wrote to you on a scrap of paper and
never used a letter head, you would conclude he wasn’t
much of a success—wouldn’t you? A man who does not
use modern business methods cannot possibly compete with
the man who does. A man who pays all his bills by cash
and never by check does not impress people with being a
successful man.
If you pay your bills by checks on your Bank Account here
you are writing upon the Letter Head of Success.
