HOME FROM WASHINGTON.
Senator Mcmillan Says He Is a
Candidate for Re- Election.-M al.
Straits Views.


Senator s. j. z. Mcmillan and Congress-
man 81. B. Strait returned from Washington
yesterday to spend Christmas at home. Both
ook well after their brief stay at the capital.
Senator Mcmillan said to a GLOBE reporter
that he would not care to be quoted as to the
senatorial outlook. In answer to direct
luesti on he said he was in the field, but was
not given to worrying much. If he failed
to secure q reelection he would take it with
out pang. He expressed himself as conf
dent and said ne did not think Maj. Strait
was a candidate. Senate or Mcmillan says the
amendment TO the local mail delivery bill
simply extends the service so that smaller
cities than were included within the
limit can enjoy the benefits of
special delivery, This will apply
to number of cities of Minnesota
which heretofore have not enjoyed the serv-
ice. He explained the nature of the bill
granting J. j. Hill, of the Manitoba, the
right of way through the great Indian reser-
walton north of the Missouri, grom DEVILS
Lake. Oak, to the Great Falls of the Missouri.
A similar bill was passed at the last session
nv both houses That bill. however. aimed
at nothing more than allowing somebody, in
definitely. to acquire right of way, and the
president vetoed it, and the veto was now
pending before the present session when the
