LOGAN AND THE PRESIDENT.

WASHINGTON, May 7.-Respecting the reports of
dissatisfaction on the part of Senator Logan toward
the President, the Senator has recently taken occa-
sion, 1t Is said TO communi cate with the President
and say that all such reports are untrue In regard
to the executive order enlarging the boundaries Of
the Zuni Indian reservation so as to embrace the
lands and springs claimed by Senator Logan's SON.
in-law it is now declared upon trustworthy author
ity that the President did not know that Senator
Logan was directly or indirectly interested in
the disputed claims and, in fact, that the
Senator had expressly declared that he was
not so interested. But had he been one of the
claimants the Presidents action would still have
been the same.
There does not appear to be any good ground for
the complaint of some OF Senator Logans friends in
Washington that the Presidents order of Saturday
was "a direct blow" at him OF was so intended.
For Senator Logan It hardly necessary to say
that nothing in his long public career justlfes even
Suspicion that he would cOuntenanee any act Of
injustice, and least OF all one toward a defenceless
and weak Indian tribe like the Zunis.
