Inside. The manager of the team
states positively that President Nc
klniey will be frequent specta-
tor at the games from the present
indications Of Ids democracy, the
prediction is not far out of the way
Not or mauy years have The re-
latio between the executive aud
legislative branches Of the govern
ment been so close as it is at pres
ent. All era of good will was In
augurated by the president when
he sent his kindly ano cordial
greetings to congress III his first
message. The fact that he was III
congress himself and that senators
and representatives are cordially
welcomed at the White House, instead
of being treated as intruders and med
oilers as was the case duringth Cleye-
land administration, carries the con
yiction that the feeling is sincere and
will probably last
Another circumstance that is culcu-
lated to cement this good feeling is
the habit that the cabinet officers
have of appearing at the capitol and
mingling with the senators and repre-
sentatives. Attorney General Nc
Kenna and Secretary Sherman have
inaugurated this custom and it prom
ises to be potent factor in shaping
the relations of the two branches
OF the government. Secretary Sher-
man walked into the senate chamber
the other day as if he had not given
up his seat in that body and was
warmly greeted by all hands. He,
boy fashion, threw his arms around |
Senator Nelson, who, on looking up
smiled with evident surprise and |
pleasure to see bending over him the
tall form and the grizzled face of the
secretary. During Cleveland's adj
ministration none of the cabinet offic-
ers visited the capitol Voluntarily.
Secretary Olney would have created a
ten day talk by friendly visit to the
capitol.
The political world at the capitol is
talking over the defeat in the house
of representatives of the Bryan divis-
ion of the Democratic party. Mr..
Mcmillan and Mr.. Bailey we're candi-
dates for the Democratic caucus nom
nation for speaker, Mr.. Mcmillan be
ing endorsed by Bryan. Mr.. Bailey
is anything but an admirer Of Bryan.
He does not consider him a good
Democrat and all but bolted his nom
ination for president During the
campaign Mr.. Bailey did not endorse
Bryan although he did stump for his
party. While both men are free silver
Mr.. Bailey is opposed to the leader
