(Prom the Washington Correspondent of The Jeffersonian.)
With becoming dignity and in temperate language which, nevertheless, forcefully expressed just indignation, Senator Glass (Dem., Va.) voiced the resentment of himself and his Democratic colleagues at President Coolidge's amazing message charging the Senate with having instituted 'a government of lawlessness" in connection with Senatorial investigations of official wrongdoing and downright corruption.
After declaring that the President's message was not a discussion of an episode nor a protest against an irregularity of method, as it might with propriety have been, Senator Glass said: "There is nothing so sure in letter (Mellon's) or 1 message (President Coolidge's) asj the clearly revealed impatience of| the Executive and his Secretary with the entire business of the investigation."
Concerning the investigations, Senator Glass said:
"It seems to me, Mr. President, that Senate investigations, far from creating the condition graphically described by the President as "lawless government," have been fairly 3ffective/, and when the President angrily presents a contrary view he s enmeshed in his own criticism. It was a Senate investigation that sent Albert B. Fall to Three Rivers a disgraced man and a self-confessed felon. It was a Senate investigation :hat revealed the utter incapacity an dindifference to public obligation of Mr. Denby, compelled by force of public opinion to retire from the Cabinet, despite his repeated defiances and oft-avowed determination to remain in office. It was a Senate investigation that confirmed the popular convictio of Mr. Daugh-erty's ufitness for high distinction by revealing an official situation and personal contacts which literally shocked the nation and compelled his dismissal frim the Cabinet. It was a Senate investigation that revealed the appaling condition of the Veterans' Bureau, with its frauds upon the Government, its immoral orgies, its wicked neglect of sick and disabled soldiers of the World War. The culprits, now headed for jail, will doubtless agree that Senate investigations are dusturbing to the usual order of things. It was a Senate investigation that disclosed the criminal and fraudulent and sordid, nature of the oil leases transactions which caused the Congress by sanction of the President himself, to direct recovery of public domain and the prosecution of the criminals. It is by reason of a Senate investigation that attorneys chosen by the President and confirmed by the Senate are this moment engaged in the prosecutio nof civil suits and criminal actions to restore the Government's proprietary rights, and to punish the men who acquired them by means of bribery and corruption and the betrayal of public trusts.
"Rather should the Senate be commended by the President and the country for exposing a condition of lawlessness in Government which has disgraced one former Cabinet minister, discredited another and confirmed the public detestation of a third. Rather should the Senate be thankful for its swift and earnest action to recover the nation's stolen
wealth and visit upon the thieves the severest reprisals. And unless the President of the United States desires to be regarded as a reluctant, rather than an eager, participant in this joint legislative and executive aggression, he must moderate the harsh condemnation contained in his message to the Senate and withdraw from a position which is not untenable, but positively distressing to his fellow citizens."
Senator Glass pre-eminently is qualified by high character as a pri vate citizen and an experienced pub lie official to effectively administer1 such a rebuke to President Coolidge. As co-author of the Federal Reserve Act, as a former Secretary of the Treasury he commanded the confidence of the financial and business world. He is not given to impulsive utterances or snap judgments.
Throughout his speech he treated Secretary Mellon with great fairness and consideration, and his criticisms of President Coolidge was reluctantly spoken and in the most respectful language that such an occasion would admit. If the President possesses in any degree the "Puritan conscience" with which he is accredited, Senator Glass' speech must have left a deep impression upon it, as it has upon the public conscience, however it may smart from the just rebuke administered.

Two sons of Henry Miller, of near Sweet Air, while dragging logs to the mill came upon two huge snakes, each measuring five and a-half feet in length.

The other was very desperate and put up a fight, but when the boys got too hot for him he climbed a twenty-foot tree and was about to make a leap when one of the boys hurled a club at him, knocking him to the ground.
