We would likes to stick around here until the congress adjourns, for to an outlander from the unnhaved wilderness, it is fascinating to be a keyhole peeker at the federal " merry-go-round. " But it can't be done. We haven't had time even to look in at the house, but have spent most all of three days in the senate srallery watching the animals perform. And tomorrow we must go on to New York to keep rather an important engagement with the other (and younger) members of the family. It's odd about hunches. We had no inside information at all, and there was no reason to believe there would be anything of particular interest when the senate convened yesterday noon. But we had a distinct feeling, from the outset, there was some thing stirring. It was just a hunch. When we took our seats in the gallery, however, we were sure of it. There were more senators on the floor than usual a quarter of an hour before the opening; and even more unusual, the press gallery started to fill up at that early hour. There was a distinct air of excite ment and expectancy abroad. s That acidulous and weather-beaten old cockatoo from Texas, Vice-President Garner, took his seat, and rapped for order. The senators found their places more quickly than usual, and the buzz of conversation died down almost immediately. Then the big gun was fired "a message from the president," An envelope was handed the senate reading clerk, he sliced it open and started to rend "I nomiuato Hugo L. Black," and then the fireworks stnrted. On objection from the floor, the chair stopped further reading, but the cat was out of the bag of course. The long awaited appointment to the Supreme Court, by the president had been made, and one of his strongest parti sans, the head of the Black investigating committee, had been given the coveted honor, trom all we have been able to learn the choice was a complete surprise, to everyone but to the president himself. Another precedent smashed, and another punching bag erected for the Roosevelt hater's to expend their excess energy upon. Senator Ashnrst of Arizona was an honored and unbroken precedent, that the senate never refused confirmation of one of its own members to the Supreme Bench. Being a member well known to all, Senator Black's acceptability would be granted as a matter of course. Such action however would require unanimous consent. And Senator Hiram .Johnson, refused to give it. Hiram like many other of the elder statesmen is showing his age. Tn a voice that quavered and words that faltered, he opined that the regular course of procedure best be followed. Another senator was of the same opinion. It was decided to hold over senate action, nntil today, and proceed with the anti-lynching talkfest. That, we grant, is a very inadequate description of the event. For it wasn't a matter of words or action, as much as feeling. For several minutes there was a tension in the atmosphere that could literally be felt. Everything was hushed, the quaver in Hiram Johnson's voice was not due entirely to his years. We happened to notice Senator McNary's youthful and school girl complexion. He looked the picture of perfect health when we bade him good-bye the night before. In a few seconds there on the floor he was drawn and old, every trace of color had left, his face. He said nothing. Only three senators did. But what, a chapter in political history could be written', if some machine had been handy that could have recorded all the assembled THOUGHTS I This is written before the senate couvenes at noon. The general idea is the nomination will be opposed on technical not personal grounds, Borah as usual will call in the Constitu tion, and something will be said about the regulation that no senator can benefit, financially from a law, passed by the cou gress of which he is or was a member. Some will contend no vacancy exists, that Sutherland did not resign, but merely retired on full pay, and is therefore still a member of the court. However we have been able to find n" one, who thinks Black will be turned down by the senate frvi the practical stand point opposition will be merely a matter of going through the motions. The real objection to Senator Black will probably not be mentioned in the senate. After all the upper house, is first, Inst nnd all the time an exclusive club, and has its traditions to be maintained. One is that dirt should be thrown at, no member in good standing. If that IS done, the house will have to do it., Only praise for Black, as a citizen and lawyer, can be heard. He has been popular in the senate. But on the other hand, in the press gallery or nowhere else have we heard ANYONE suggest that he is of judicial temperament, or really BIG enough for a job of that sort. lira. Black and her small son happened to sit directly in front of us in the gallery. An attractive woman, in her middle thirties, well dressed, highly elated of course, Senntor LsFollette sent her a note of congratulation from the floor, which she rend and then turned over to the young boy to decipher. Men and women kept coming up to shake her hand. She carried it off very well. Obviously tickled pink and yet quite dignified about it. It, occurred to us however that the congratulations tniitht have becu reserved until the appointment had been confirmed. . . Speaking of judicial confirmations there is still some hitch regarding the federal judgeship for Oregon. Claude MeCollocb of Klamath Falls got the appointment, but has been called to Washington for investigation by the senate committee headed by Borah. Don't know who! her Bill intends to call id the constitution concerning Claude be some stiff cross examining according to report. Another report on the highest authority, declares President Roosevelt is pretty well fed up on the inability of Oregon Democrats to agree on ANYTHING .and thinks the members of his party in the W'cbfoot. stnte, should snap out of it. (Wait, until the guber natorial free-for-all he ain't seen nothin' yet I) However with McColloch as with Senator Black, in the end there will be nothing but talk, both appointments will be confirmed all right. Have lo hand it to the Uxicahs of this place. Haven't ben able to figure nut how they can stay in business. From the capital to this hotel must be two or three miles at the very least, and the charge is ;t0 cents 1 ..... Met Our Walter (Pierce) jogging laboriously in the tunnel corridor from the house to the senate. He had his coat on his arm suspender cn rampant and a look of such sadness and fatigue on his aging face, Hint we hadn't the heart to make him feel worse by greeting hint and making him stop. They say he had just been to a meeting regarding the McColloch mailer, which perhaps accounts for it. The outstanding feature of the Anti-Lynching bill debate, hs been the heat and passion of the southern senators who oppose it. There is no fake shout it, not for a minute, the boys from south of the Mason and Dixon line are going to fight this measure to the death, and put everything they have in it. It's quite an eye opener and a shock to a northerner, like the present writer who has never visited in the south, merelv passed through it and therefore doesn't know it. The idea thnt ANY self respeetinj eitiren of this country, could seriously uphold Judge Lynch, it incredible to u. And proceeded to explain that there or not. But there is going to yet while these southern senators all deny thst this is what thev do, boil down their attitude to the essentials, and they do NOTHING ELSE! They talk a lot about states rights, the eivil war and the Sacred Constitution CBorah assisting them of course) but what thev REALLY sav is this: "DON'T TAKE THE RIGHT OR THE THREAT OF LYNCHING FROM US, WE MUST HAVE THAT TO KEEP THE NIGGER IN HIS PLACE I" And they MEAN it every word of it. Even such a fine old statesman as Carter Glass of Virginia, got so enraged and aroused yesterday that we feared he would end his admirable caree right there with a stroke. And Smith of South Carolina likewise, it wasn't play acting, there were tears in his voice real ones. We admit we were stirred by it, while disagreeing with EVERY portion of his argument. Perhaps if we really knew the south, we could understand it. Not having this knowledge we CAN'T! R. W. R.

On the other hand, the attempt of the victim of "Indiges tion" or stomach or Intestinal trou ble of any kind to adhere to such a diet without persons! medical sup ervision, Is more likely to aggravate the trouble than to give any relief, for the smooth diet usually excludes the Items that are the principal sources of minerals and vitamins In our modern victuals, which at best are hardly adequate In these vital factors to maintain optimal health In any cae. The smooth diet, I think, Is a reaction from the fad or vogue of the rough diet of a decade ago when apostles of b,ran and roughage held their sway.

When the southern agriculture commissioner arrived in Washington a week ago. Mr. Westbrook took them in charge. There were at least 13 dif ferent proposals, aimed at providing our for the sick cotton prices, brought to town. The colonel steppe pd up. mentioned tha necessity for speed and proceeded to give an example of it. In no time, he had boiled down the proposals to three, and had the commissioners agreeing on them. This settled, Mr. Westbrook waved hla wand and the delegation found lt Vlf at the White House. The first meeting with the presi dent waa very friendly, but appar ently futile. "I'm a cotton farmer myself," or words to that effect, the president told the commissioners. But he didn't change his verdict of no fi nancial aid without crop control leg islation. Secretary Wallace was no lesa firm. The house committee on agriculture was somewhat friendlier. But when It came to meeting with "Cotton Ed" Smlth'a senatorial group, the situa tion waa quite different "Your voice to me is as sweet as the voice of a baying hound," said the senator when the spokesman had concluded his statement. Then followed the second White House conference, which apparently gave King Cotton what he was after. Meanwhile report were circulated that the president was still adamant but one more wave of the magic wand and Mr. Westbrook'a petitioners were back with the president. This time, they left satisfied.

William Neblett, who Is actively working for Mr. Mc Adoo'a relectlon, or both. It Is relia bly reported, therefore, to have been In line with Mr. McAdoo's wishes that the name of a auccessor to Mr Hall waa sent to the senate the other day.
