GOSSIP AT
 THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
RY1ALRERr HALsTEAp.

Viee-President Roosevel is presiding in the Senate with grace and ability. The position of @ presiding officer being new to him. it is necessary for the clerk to protmpt him every now and then, but with a few days more of experience he will undoubtedly make an excellent pre- siding officer. The present work is a It, tie trying, but the Senators are courteous and not in the least inclined to take ad- vantage of the Vice-President's mex experience. Those who have expected that Colonel Roosevelt will be aggres- sive and meddlesome as Vice. President will be mistaken. He understands the traditions of the Senate and knows that the only way he can expect any influence will be indirectly. The President has al- ready shown by his courtesy to the Vice President desire to cultivate the closest relations with hira. He will unquestion- ably advise with MT. Roosevelt and 1t may be that the two will become as intimate as the President and MT. Hobart were MT. Hobart was practically a member of the Presidents cabinet, in that the Presi- dent discussed public questions with him. This was unusual and the same policy with MT. Roosevelt would be nat uraliy advantageous.

Candidates, stand Up and AnswerI

The following letter endorsed responsi- bly was left by the writer thereof in easy reach of this column, and it goes:
 Dear Candidate-for-the-Con
 What have you done to prepare your mind for the task you desire me to be- lieve you are ready to undertake?
 Have you fixed in your own appre- hension the dividing line between sov- ereign convention of the people, with the work to which such a body should limit itself, and the General Assembly which the convention may create? Do you know the fine difference between the provinces, respectively, of the creator in this high sphere and the thing created?
 q am impelled to put this categorical question to you specially, because the enabling act of the General Assembly, un- der which the sovereign convention is to meet if the people so oEder, Is badly muddled in its pretensions. For example, among other prescriptions and limita- tions the General Assembly seeks to in- struct the sovereign convention contem- plated upon several practical matters of detail. The sovereign is instructed In this case by the creature to sit in deliberation, not more than fifty days. Do you hold to the superiority of this command, Mir Candidate-for- Convention, or do you spurn it as an impertinent and childish display of nonsense? Do you not know that it is puerile and buncomb, fuss and fustian, signifying nothing. for the Gen eral Assembly to enact what sovereign convention shall do or refrain from doing not fin conflict with Article VI, Section of the federal constitution to which Ala bama assented in 1S19?
 Here we have an enabling act loaded down with various conflicting instructions to the people in convention assembled' So far from the General Assembly having power to limit the time of the session or the convention. the convention may, with propriety, if it secs fit, change the session of the G .neral Assembly from the present fifty-day limit tu forty-nlne as arbitrarily as our elothiers change the price ot pants from the higher to the reduced figure. See the absurdity of the enabling acti

A Governors Dream of Utopia.

Gov. A. H. Longino, the Chief MaglS- trate of Mississippi, spent the day in BIT mingham yesterday having arrived in the forenoon from Washington, whither he went to joint the Governors of many other States in the Presidential inaugural ceremonies. and having departed for Jackson last night, accompanied by ms private party, which included Mrs. Lon gino and Miss Elizabeth Thingefer
 Governor Longino is an excellent type of the man variously called dapper, tidy, smart, energetic, quick, good-looking- lie is rather above medium stature, is thick set and muscular, has remarkably alert face, short-cropped iron-gray mustache and hair, and is, possessed of dignity and the most pleasing courtesy and com radery; withal one of those taking" men whose popularity is easily accounted for. Clearly he is a man of strong intellectual force.
 The governor of Mississippi would like to annex the western mountain districts of his brother governor of North Caro- lima, and is determined to annex little farm at any rate He made the railway journey ITOIn Oduspuiy lo <ASiicNAiiS' eiiN he declares that he'd never dreamed ol scenery so grand and inspiring, and he doubts if in the world there is any mo- bier natural scenery.
 This son of Mississippi, the State with out high hill, has strong purpose to acquire a certain little spot on the North Carolina mountainside which he marked from his train, and make preparation for spending the month of August there With his household and his official family. Ills plan is to take his staff and their fami- lies to that spot to spend four weeks of camp life. all eating from a common table and every man paying his share of the expenses. The governor is convinced that all of the party would be supremely hap py. Certainly itis almost dream of Utopia in high official life.

The Cuban Situation.

While the Cubans are naturally slow
 in deciding to accept the conditions im- posed by Congress, 1t is the expectation in Washington that they will do so fin- ally. That there will be a few furries of opposition is it to be expected, but when
 it becomes plain to the Cubans that no other course can be taken unless they
 wish to remain indefinitely under Ameri- lean control, they will probably yield with sgood grace. In the meantime 1t is sthought that the real benefits to come to !Cuba from the semi-protectorate will be more generally understood. To the busi- ness interests, the assurance of a firm and stable government mean everything ard so soon as the Cubans themselves accept the conditions 1t is likely that there will be an increase in business pros- pecity and in industrial development.
