BIG JOB FOR SHORT CONGRESS

Webb Bill, Food Embargo, Election CaAvasa and Corrupt Practices Bill Are to Be Considered • - The short session of congress, which opened Monday, will be full of action as is indicated by the series of important problems that must be handled during the next three quite probable that the Christmas holidays will be eliminated as suggested by Speaker Clark, 1 of the house. This indicates that the president does not propose that any legislation shall be left for the next congress, the control of which is still in doubt. He proposes to make hay while the democratic sun shines and "in this will have the support of majority leaders in both houses. Among other important items of business sure to oome before the session is the canvass of the electoral vote by the senate prior to the 1 second Monday in January. In the house the canvass will occur on Feb. 14 and the result will be declared with both houses in joint session. The president has made it plain that legislation begun by congress when it approved the Adamson law shall be completed at this session. If the Adamson, eight-hour bill is found to be unconstitutional by the supreme court, another will be introduced in its place. Two members may be added to the interstate commerce commission to study the subject of rate increase due to the eight-hour laiw. Then, too, there are the conajJttlsory arbitration laws, to prevent future strike troubles. The Webb bill, which provides that corporations in thia country who operate abroad may form joint selling agencies, will be fought out. The president is anxious that the bill shall pass, though some claim it is in violation of the Sherman anti-trust law'. The corrupt practices bill, the vocational education bill, the ratification of the Columbian treaty and the treaty with Denmark, regarding the purchase of the Danish West Indies also must be considered. Food embargo bills are sure to occupy the attention of the house, where several measures already have been introduced. A bill granting citizenship to Porto Ricans, which has been before congress for some time, may come up for final action. In addition there are scores of measures which are to be considered but administration bills, it is understood, will be given preference in both houses.

Vernon Noweis was able to call upon the Republican today.

John Kiersma, who lives on the Otis ranch near Thayer, was a pleasant caller at the Republican office today. They are milking thirty-five cows on this ranch now and the revenue derived therefrom is a mighty fine sum. Ms. Kiersmd will read The Republican twice a week for a year, having had his name placed in this long list of people who enjoy a first class home paper.

A POME.

You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink; surround a fool with wisdom, but you cannot make him think. You show an ingrate kindness and get injured for your pains. You can dress a dude in fashion but you cannot give him brainy. You can bring the ridh to justice, but it takes a lot of time. While the poor man goes to prison, the rich one pays the fine. If you study human nature you'll find freaks of every strain. Some you see excel in stature; others great with nerve and brain. You’ll find lots of faults to criticize —perhaps some traits to praise; but it’s just as Nature made us guys, that explains our funny ways. Don’t get too close to the buzz saw or tackle a mule that’s tame. Don’t give advice to those in love or bet op another man’s game.—Ex.

HERE’S PROOF.

A Rensselaer Citizen Tells of His Experience. I You have a right to doubt statements of people living far away but can you doubt Rensselaer endorsement? Read it: Zack Gampbell, retired fanner, Harrison St., Rensselaer, says: “I was hardly ever free from a steady, aching in my back. My back was laipe and sore and my work was torture, because every, effort to move caused piercing pains in4t7 ' My kid--< jieys acted- too often. Nights, I was kept by the too frequent passages of the kidney secretions and they were scanty and burned. J I never felt fresh and rested, but was always worn-out. I used several boxes of Doan’s. Kidney. Pills and became well and strong and free from all that trouble.” 1 Price 50c, at all dealers. Dont simply ask for a kidney remedy—-get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Campbell had.

Indiana Boy to Take Moving Picture In Mexico.

Clifford Harrod, of Altoona, Pa., formerly of Indianapolis, was the guest over night of his aunt, Mr*. L. B. Fate. Mr. Harrod has been working for the Pennsylvania railroad for some time, holding the office of inspector, his duties being to take moving pictures of work pertahting to the railroad, in the shops and on the tracks. These have been used to instruct the employes in their work. Mr. Harrod’s work attracted the attention of the government and they requested the railroad company to give him a furlough and let him work for a time for the government. Mr. Harrod was a.cadet at Purdue and is familiar with army work. £fe has now been made First Lieutenant' of Engineers and the first of the year will be sent to Mexico and assigned to the First Regiment of Engineers. His duties will be similar to those on the Pennsylvania. He will take moving pictures of bridge building and Work of this kind which is done in the army. His pictures will be used by the government in instruction work. expects to be kept in Mexico two months, when he will be released and returned to his work with the Pennsylvania. The government has purchased an expensive moving picture outfit, with telescope attachments, by which he can take pictures at a distance of four miles. Hi* duties will also be to instruct the engineers in the moving picture business, 30 that they can carry on the work when he leaves. He will also take along the outfit he used on the Pennsylvania, and hopes to get some good pictures of exciting war scenes in Mexico. Pictures of this kind bring a big price, if the operator is so fortunate as to be on the ground and get a picture of some big event.

Evanston Not a Twin City, But a City of. Twins.

The Chicago Record Herald of December 11th contained the pictures of twin girls recently bom to Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Rossall, of Evanston, 111. Mrs. Rossall was formerly Miss Gladys Brown and is a niece of Mrs. E. L. Clark, of this city. Mr. and Mrs. Rossall were at a loss what to name the twins and asked the Herald to aid ' them in selecting names for them' and the Herald in turn is asking its .readers to supply the youngsters with names. So many twins have put in their appearance of late in tlie Chicago suburb that the supply of names is becoming exhausted. Evanston is fairly swarming with twins and the task of naming them is becoming a serious proposition. The Herald article follows:

“So many twins are making their appearance in Evanston that parents are having difficulty in finding suitable names for them. “Any fond father or mother will admit it is hard to find a name good enough for baby when it comes alone. ,It must be much harder when they come in crowds. I “Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Rossall, 1705 Boomer place, have five children whom--they had named successfully, but bn Dec. 2 twin girls were added to the list. Two more names to agree upon! - • ' f “After thinking about it for a week without reaching a decision, Mrs. Rossall said She would be willing to accept suggestions from the Herald family. She is a member of the Herald family and has confidence in the judgment of the others. J‘ln the meantime, on Thursday, Dec. 7, twins were bom to Mr. and Mrs. John Hilles-Heim, 624 Central, street, Evanston, and that means another pair of suitable names to be selected. Some interest has been awakened in the speculation as to whether the Rossall or the HillesHeim twins will be the first to be named.

“There is plenty of evidence right in Evanston that it is no easy matter to name twins and have a variety. Now there are Elizabeth and Harriet Ling and Elizabeth and Harriet Powell, all in the fifth grade in the Crandon school. With them are Agnes and Florence Barber. Npr is that all. ’ There is Myrtle and Marguerite Neikrenz, ' Mildred and Myrtle Bent and Margaret and Mildred Jarvis. Still going we find Jane Frances and Kathryn Stewart, and Katharine md Juanita Burlingham, Grace and Gertrude Johnson, and Gertrude and Margaret Gesler. One pair without luplicatejJ is Doris and Duul Hanson. Richard and Ralph Phalen are in high school, but Douglas and Donald Murray, red-haired youngsters who are among the l attractions of the town, are in the grades. Fifty-fifty on thfe sexes are Dorothy and Alfred McMurray, who had a grandfather a twin and a grandmother . a twin. All of these live in the horthwesterh section of Evanston, and the census taker is panting trying to catch 'up with the stork. .I. " 4

Uncle Benjamin Harris has started something. We have a large number of citizens who are able to follow his lead. The Monnett Home, a good park, additional support to the hospital, a Y, M. C. A. building and public play grounds are a few of the needs of the city. . A phone' call received from Attorney Halleck, Advises us that there would be little doing in the Stockton trial at Monticello .today.
