Indi0n0 Politics.

WASHINGTON. D. c., Dec. -
The Indiana republican repre-
sentatives are much disturbed
over the appointment of Judge
Francis E. Baker of that state as
United States circuit court Judge
of the seventh judicial district,
which includes the states of Indi-
and, Illinois, and Wisconsin.
This appointment stands as a
complete victory for Senator
Beverage, and the friends of
Senator Fairbanks fear that it
means that Beyeridge is to hold
the same close and confidential
relations to President Roosevelt
that Fairbanks held to President
Mckinley. Beverage bears his
honors modestly and does not
say that the appointment of
Baker was due to his (Bever-
;dge's) influence at the white
house.
Senator Z everidge indorsed
Baker soon after the death of
Judge Woods and he stood by
him. Senator Fairbanks indors-
ed no one, but would not agree
to Bakers appointments He en-
couraged the republican repre-
sentatives to propose candidates,
any one of whom he said
would be satisfactory to him.
This plan of proposing half a
dozen candidates to defeat one
did not appeal to the president.
He had Attorney General Knox
examine the papers and the
records of the candidates, and
that official reported in favor OF
Judge Baker. The situation
was peculiar. One senator in
dorsed Judge Baker, the other
presented no candidate, but
each of the republican repre-.
sentatives Lad candidate. Fhe
opposition could not get togethel

fore appointed.
The Indiana men want Senator
Fairbanks to object to the con-
firmation, and last night he talk
ed to several senators to learn
what help he could obtain. To
day there is little indication of
delay in confirmation. Senator
Fairbanks realizes that he has
no good cause for opposing the
confirmation of Baker because
he refused to present a candidate
of his own.
The political effect in Indiana
is feared by the senior senator.
1t will place Beveridge in front
as the most influential Indiana
man at the white house, though
the president had no intention of
of creating such an impression.
Some of Fairbanks friends think
that he should make a hight
against confirmation to restore
his prestige as the Indiana lead
er in Washington, and show that
he still has great influence in the
senator. The older republican
senators have advised against
this plan, as it would be simply
another mistake.
The senate cannot afford to
encourage dog-in-t he-manger
tactics. If Fairbanks had pro-
posed a candidate and been ignor-
ed, he would have grounds for
complaint. But as the situation
stands republican senators can
see no cause for taking offense,
whatever humiliation the victory
of Beverage may be to him.
