WASHINGTON, ID. c., July 30
Though Indifferent as to the outcome of
the nominating convention, Mr.. Atkin-
son continues to look after the interests
of his constituents and TO make recon-
mcndations for Office. He speaks with
earnest emphasis in saying he does not
care to remain in congress and that it is
not congenial. The trouble is that he
cannot satisfy the clam0r of Oflicc-Seek-
ers. For every Office there are twenty
or thirty applicants and as all of them
cannot be accommodated there is wild
kicking. More than two months ago
the REGISTER quoted Representative
Smith rs saying that he did not care TO
come back to congress. This declara-
tion of indifference was not generally
credited. Mr.. Smith is back
here after some days spent at
home, and he still assumes an air of in
difference, but the same time there is
no doubt that he would very gladly ac-
cept a denomination. The fact is that
there is so much greedy SeldshncsS
among the West Virginia Republicans
that no member of the party can safely
trust another. 1t is cuthrOat bust
ness throughout.
