C. Wiliams, Jr. 14th, who gained the floor at one of the night sessions to speak on n bill pending at the time. As he yielded the floor and re sumed his seat, veteran legislators were unanimous in their pr-'ise of him and his remarks, declaring them without a peer in all their leg islative experience. “I enjoyed the address of the senator from the 14th more than any I have ever heard,” declared Senator W.

TWO KINDS OF TAX REDUCTION BEING URGED WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.—The Democrats’ fight on the Republi cans’ tax reduction program next winter won’t be against reduction, but against the kind of reduction— Secretary of the Treasury Mellon’s kind—that it’s considered certain the Republicans will advocate. it wouldn’t do to oppose reduc beauty, as the girl whose mother tries to bring a title into the family by marrying her to a worthless duke.

It’s no cinch that they will be able to. They probably can manage it in the House of Representatives, but the Senate’s doubtful—more than doubtful.
