AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER SON WELL FITTED TO CONTINUE HIS FATHER’S WORK Election of “Young Bob” La- Follette to the Senate is Be , Lieved Certain By CHARLES P. STEWART WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.—G. O. P. regulars are having a hard time finding a bright side to young Bob La Follette’s sweeping victory at the Republican senatorial primar ies in Wisconsin. They had hardly expected him to lose but they, did hope the La i Follette forces in the Badger state would prove to haye been weakened by the death of the present Senate (candidate’s father. Instead of that they seem to be ;as formidable under the junior I Bob a severy they were under the 'senior. I It isn’t to disputed that Bob (owes his nomination and will owe ;his expected election, at so young | an age to so high an office, to the ■ fact that he’s his father’s son. Still this will not be altogether I a handicap to him in the Senate. It may mean some slurs, but it will mean a great deal in the way of prestige also. If the young senator makes good on his individual merits the slurs will soon cease and the prestige of of his father’s name will remain, clear velvet, to add to the credit of his own accomplishments. Nor have those who know Bob junior best any doubts concerning his ability to fill his father’s sho»s creditably. The youngest man. Henry Clay alone excepted, ever to run for the Senate, he nevertheless is an x perienced politician. The atmos phere of politics and his system is saturated with it. For a decade before his death his father depended on him increasing ly daily and he is as well prepared to go on with the late senator’s work as he was to assume, automati cally, the direction of his political 'organization in Wisconsin. I If young Bob were a near repro duction of his father, comparisons 'might be drawn between them, per jhaps to the former’s disadvantage ,but he isn’t. j He is more like his mother than his father—less dramatic in his ! makeup and probably' not the sena j tor’s equal as an orator, but ex ceedingly wise in counsel, diplo [matic, thoroughly posted on all pub lic questions and an indefatigable porker. All in all, he promises to be as big a nuisance to Republican regu larity when the Senate meets next as his father was in the last one and at many preceding sessions. glad to learn that she is getting along nicely. Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Loving mo tored to Atlanta to spend several days.

Sept. 25.—What is believed to be the mots unique of fer ever presented to a recruiting officer of the United States Army, I was made to Colonel James T. ( Dean, U. S. Army, recruiting officer at No. 39 Whitehall street, here through a letter received today from | four young men in County Kildare Ireland. j The letter, couched in scholarly language, expresses their desire to ‘become American citizens through first proving their worth by service ■in the United States army. i The question of pay the letter iproceeds, matters very little. They jwish to become doughboys in the j American Army, if necessary with out pay. They also waive the right | of which the ordinary recruit is us . ually very jealous, to select the or ganization and station in which they i will serve. “So long as it is in the ! United States,” is the phrase used, it will make them happy. TOURISTS VISIT LARGE CATHEDRALS ROME. Sept. 25.—But few American tourists visit Rome and go away without seeing St. Peter’s cathedral.

Its length is 718 feet, and its dome rises to a height of 448 feet, 85 feet higher than the cross of St. Paul’s, London.
