terminated the Leland controversy in
Kansas by nominating Senator Bur-
toms candidate, Metcalf, for the Tope-

is a distinct and unqualified recognition
of Senator Burton's influence. The
only reason that the nomination was
not made several days ago is that
Messrs. Long and Calderhead asked for
delay of several DAYS.
