to Washington to confer about a par

The Jteporter of the Associated Press
evidently mistook thin to mean that he
was against the Immigr ** t ion Kill. Mr
Stevenson's roma rk.s in this instance

about the most lonely man in the Sen- j
ate. He is the nolo representative of
the great and numerous Smith fam
ily. His name api?ears on tlie roll

up with a puzzled expression when
ever the clerk shouts his name and
does not specify "South Carolina." It
is the first time In many years that ,
hut one Smith has held down a seat
in the Senate. For a long period there
were four <>i' that name answering to
