' Control of Senate Death of Senator Ralston of Indiana following that of Senator Ladd of North Dakota strengthens the administra tion in the senate, for whle only two votes are changed they spell the difference between victory and defeat in the coming congressional session. Though the republicans had 55 votes in the upper house, not more than 47 could be depended upon as eight frequently drifted to the opposition as insurgents, and four more, Hiram Johnson, Norbeck and McMaster of ' South Dakota, and Schall of Minnesota, successor to Magnus Johnson, were more or less uncertain quantities. The administration, with the loss of the eight progres sives, was in a minority when the latter voted with the forty Democrats and one Farmer-Laborite, making 49 votes as against 47. Death has therefore played into the adminis tration's hands by replacing a democrat with a republcan while no successor to Ladd will be named until the people choose one next June. The senate will therefore stand 48 republicans, 39 democrats, 1 farmer-laborite, and 7 insurgents and one vacancy, so that the administration will have a majority of one, in case of coalition against it of democrats, insurgents and the farmer-laborite. The Wilson Anathema Postmaster General New has refused to authorize the Issue of stamps bearing Woodrow Wilson's portrait in con nection with the Wilson Foundation and Memorial, although Wilson'3 successor's face appears upon stamps authorized for the Harding Memorial movement. ' Mr. New's explanation of his actions, is that Harding died in office, while Wilson died a private citizen and that the time elapsed since his death is too shqrt for his memory to be given the honor it may eventually receive. Yet Theodore Roosevelt also died a private citizen and within a few months of his death, his likeness adorned Btamps. AH of which shows the bitterness of the political partisanship which pursues Wilson into his grave. There was another instance of this malignity exhibted when the Income Tax Division of the Treasury Department decided that donations to the Wilson Foundation were sub ject to tax, while those to the Roosevelt and Harding memorials were exempt. Evidently the anathema on every thing pertaining to Woodrow Wilson is a party heritage and does not lose its strength with time. Killing the Farmer's Friend A Canby rural mail carrier shot a hawk on the road, the other day and. when he went to pick it up, the supposed dead bird took a peck.that put out his eye for which no one can blame the hawk. This federal employe broke several laws and regulations. It is against rules to carry a gun on duty, while delivering mail. It is a violation of the state law to shoot on a public highway. A hawk is one of the most beneficial of birds and one of the farmers best friends, daily destroying its weight in varmint, and as it is useless as food, there is no justifica tion in its slaughter. As a result of similar wanton slaughter of eagles, hawks and owls, all birds that justify their existence, the balance of nature has been destroyed and a great increase jn rabbits, diggers, gophers and mice is causing an economic loss to . every farmer in the land. All of these birds should be pro tected by law to prevent their extermination, which is now threatened. CECOND WIVEC fcJP By VIOLET DARE WllKN JKAIiOUSY I1IUYHS It was a n pw senwntlon for Jillly Ijanc, the Jealousy that swept over him nn he saw his wife- ride off with Dob ltnmlall In attendance. Billy had never before seen Marie on horseback. Ho know that as n child she had ilwnys had her own horsoa, but after her marriage to him their poverty had stripped her lite of all luxuries, and she hud never ridden, And rifrw here alio wim, nrnnx InRly pretty in the smart habit she was wenrhiR, with n handsome man at her Hide, riding nwuy from him! For a moment ltilly forgot that Mario had left him because of hln own devotion to another woman, forgot that he htl In rcallly driv en her from him v?hen his 'own uccpss made It possible for them to mingle, with the people of the world she had belonged in before her mnrrlage to him. Ho forgot - everything but the fact that Marie Was his wife; a mere matter of n divorce could not do nway with that feellnc He could not havo re aentej her solnfr nway with ltan dall any more deeply had he and Mario never separated, 'What' the matter, Billy?" Car Ollne Phillips nskcrt tauntingly. You look o If you'd lost some thing." "Oh, Caroline, I I didn't see you," ho said lamely, turning to fnco her. "I Just came over to talk with Marie about some mat ters of business thnt weren't atrnlghtened up before si e wont t Paris to net her our divorce." "You'll have to make an appoint ment way ahead of time if you ex pect to got a chance to talk with Marie," Caroline replied. "She's awfully popular, you know. I never real lied before what a lovely poruon Mario Is, nnd how Irresisti bly fiho attracts men without any thought of doing no. Why, Bob Itaiubill haa been dodging matri mony for yeara, and ho wna lost tho mlnuto he saw Marie, llc'n perfectly devoted to nor. I'm hop ing she'll many him. He haa money and position and all that, and ho'd make her such a good husband." Hilly wiacpd as If she had stuck a sharp pin Into him. The thought of Marie married to another mnn was unbearable. Somehow he had never considered that possibility, In the days when ho was yielding to Jnnny's fascination. He hadn't thought much about Marie to tell the truth. And she had told him no frankly that she still loved him, that there never could be anyone else for het well, she'd been wrong! Gointi off this way with Randall, tho minute she was free! He tried hard to bo angry, but couldn't. Instead ho could only remember how devoted Marie had been dur ing the years when they were strug gling along on next to nothing, how happy nnd cheerful fiho had been when they had almost noth ing to eat, how she urged him to take what money they hSd nnd spend It on the materials ho need ed for working on his patents, pay ing thnt they'd got along somehow. Rhe had been such a good com panion, never complaining, never minding how hard she had to work She had never seemed to mind that she was giving up nil her youth, all the wonderful times that she would havo had If she hadn't mar ried him, to struggling with him for Suddenly Billy I,nne. sitting there In the brilliant sunshine nnd star ing out over the gardens that sur rounded the Wiilllppa country home taw himself as he really waj, saw what. a mistake he had made. Marie was wonderful, and he had lost her had lost her companion hip, her love. Instead he had Janny. At the thought of her he smiled, Janny was such a child, such a fascinat ing, spoiled, delightful little thing. Oh well everybody makes mis takes, and with Janny he'd build up a new life. Resolutely he re fused to think of Marie any long er, telling himself that when he and Janny were married he'd find life with his second wife quite as wonderful aa it could possibly be with his first one. Caroline Phillips, watching him as ho got into his roadster and drove away, shook her head re gretfully. "Billy's a dear, but he's an ut tor fool," she told herself. "Run ning off after that nddlepated lit tle Janny, attracted by her blonde hair and her cute ways, and not seeing how empty-headed and empty hearted she is! Ho's ruined his life by losing Marie and he could havo held her forever, if he'd Just kept his head after he made his money, oh well I only hope Marie's not still In lovo with him, nnd bent on ruining her life, by finishing It alone, just because she can't havo Billy." At that moment Mario was rid ing swiftly along a country lane, with Bob Randall's horse close be hind hers. Randall had been nic er than over thnt morning, but her mind kept going back to Billy, re calling the expression on his face. She knew that she hnd done right in riding away with Randall and keeping her engagement with him, even though Billy had appeared. And yet somehow, she wished that she had stayed. "I must remember that he does n't care for me any more, that It's Janny he loves," she herself. ''I've got to go my way, just as he's go ing to go his. It'll be easier after Gloria's Marquis Under Fire , , , i z& The attractive young man to whom Gloria Swanson, film actress, was married in Paris, is not Marquis De La Falaise, but plain Mr. De La Falaise, according to the official birth and marriage records of France. he and Janny are married; then I'll realize that It's hopeless to want him, and maybe I can stop loving him." And with that bitter consolation she rode on through the beauty of the woods, while the man whose horse oped so swiftly after hers watch e'd he,r, adoring her from her beautiful little head to her smartly shod heels, wondering what her answer would be when he told her that he loved hor. Monday Billy Agnlfi. Tall Men Organize To Demand Rights With 33 Members Thirty-three men, measuring six feet or more In height, residents In and near Salem, met with Ben jamin Ostllnd of Marshfield and a delegation of Long fellows from Marshfield and Portland, at a ban quet which saw the Salem Long follows club launched last night. Ostlind Is now president of the or der, which is now national In scope, is becoming "international, lntor planetory, or Interstellar, if we can get Into touch with them." Actual organisations exist, however. In Bio De Jancro, the Hawaiian Islands, Australia, New Zealand, England, Italy, Prance and Canada, Ostllnd atated. The international move ment was started by Ostllnd last summer at the international Ro tary convention, to which he was a delegate. "Out of the 6000 or more there, there were about 500 who were 6 feet or more tall," he said. The Longfellowa, who say that for years they have suffered la silence while everything In the world has been made In consldor atlon of the short fellow only, are going to demand, among other things, the following. Pullman berths that are not sev oral Inches shorter than the occu pant. "Hundreds and hundreds of times I've slept In a berth In which I had to shape myself like the let ter S," said I. L. Patterson, of Eola who was present. Clothing that doesn't let the hands, ankles and toenails protrude out too far. Certain clothing com panies have already agreed to car ry specially constructed shoes and ajckfi, Ostllnd said. Hotel rooms with chairs pot constructed for men who are Just ns tall when they stand up' as when they alt down, beds In which the tall man doe-tn't have to lie corncrwlso. and mirrors in front of which lie doesn't have to sli down to comb his hair. The Longfellows really want to catch sight of their own fnces once in a while, like oth er people do, they say. Bathtubs in which they can get their "knees and stomach wet at the same time." Theater seats with room for a mnn's kuoes behind the row in front of him. Thirty-six Inches, back to back, should be the mini mum for tho Longfellow section of a theater, Ostllnd stated. Awnings a tall man does not have to crawl under, tree brandies the same. Whon they get their rights, tho LongfolowA declared In song, "Low Awnings no longer Will bump lofty brows, Tall oaths will no longer Distress kindly frnus." . The Longfellows charter Is to be left open for another month, al lowing anyono who Is eligible to become a charter member. At last night's meeting the SS men prcs ont were from every walk in life, according to what they told about themselves, including the doctor, the lawyer, tho merchant, the boot loggor, and the man with "no vis ible means of support." Salemltes present wore as follows: j William Shlprell, Wlnfteld Clark, i T. M. Bruute, Brusa, Kills Yon Kschon, Keith Brown, Percy Eakin. John W. Orr, Jack Leach, William Walsh. Lew Lunaford, R. C.
