SIR MICHAEL PRESENTED
NEW BRITISH AMBASSADOR
MEETS ROOSEVELT
The Two Are Personal Friends of Ten
Years Standing, and After the
Formalities They Sit and Have
Chat at the Temporary White House.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 13.-Ac-
cordlng to appointment made Saturday
Slr Michael Herbert, the new British
ambassador, was presented to the pres
| ident today by Secretary Hay. The.
presentation took place at the .temno-
rary White house on Jackson Place
and this was probably the first occasion
since the White house has been occu-
pied as the presidential mansion that
the credentials of an ambassador or
minister have been received outside
of it's doors.
Instead of calling at the state depart
ment first, which is the usual course
the ambassador proceeded directly to
the temporary White house with the
full staff of the embassy, in their dip
lomatic uniforms. Secretary Hay,
meeting him at this point, presented
his to President Roosevelt in the par
Tor on the second floor of the house.
The presentation was made in the usuak
form, with the important exception
that the president, though rapidly pro-
crossing toward recovery, needed his
physicians warning, remaining seated.
The ceremony was brief, consisting in
the presentation of the new ambassa-
dor by Secretary Hay delivery by the
ambassador of his credentials and a
felicitious speech by the ambassador
expressive of the pleasure it gave him
to return to Washington and an appro-
pirate response by the president.
President and Ambassador Old Friends.
That was all of the ceremony, and
when it was over Sir Michael who is
longtime friend of the president,
their acquaintance dating back more.
than ten years, accepted Mr.. Roose-
veits invitation to be seated, and the
two had long personal chat
The new ambassador will take rank
next after Signor Mayor Des Planches.
the Italian ambassador. The foreign
embassies here now rank in this order:
Germany, Russia, Mexico, Italy and
Great Britain, with Austria Hungary
next, as Mr.. Hengelmuller probably will
present his credentials as ambassador
before the new representative from
France arrives and is presented. How
ever, there have been persistent ru-
mors that Mr.. Won Holleben, the Ger
man ambassador, who is now dean of
the corps, soon will relinquish his post
here for another one on the continent,
and there have also been intimations
that Comte Cassini, the Russian am
bassador, who has been at Washington
since June, 1898, will be transferred to
another post.
If these two prospective. changes ma
terialize Senior Aspiroz, the Mexican
ambassador, will become dean Of the
corps, with Signor Mayor Des Planches,
of Italy ranking next and Sir Michael
Herbert standing third in the list of
foreign ambassadors at Washington.

are something like telegraphic charac-
tiers and thai thsy are of high order
OF intelligence. Prof. Hoeckel believes
the Martians far surpass ordinary men
and women in Intelligence and that
they excel infstrength and gracefulness.
Prof. Chandler also thinks they are
heavier and, stronger than ourselves,
with much thicker skins and eyes and
ears quite different from those of the
men of earth. Flammarion is sure
there are men and women on Mars, but
he inclines to the belief that they are
formed like dragon flies. DIR. Joseph
Charles Street talks like a comedian,
but he is serious when he says the
Martians are of the same general shape
as man,but are fiery red and about eight
feet tall. He says they are hideous
and have no boards or eyebrows and no
hair on their heads.
All of this talk is entertaining, but
at the same time unsatisfying. In
reallty we are not in telescope, tele-
phonic or Geographic communication
with the Martians. We do not see
them, hear them or hear from them.
Whether they are there or not is large
ly question of atmosphere. If they
have air such as ours animal life could
exist there, but if there atmosphere
has no oxygen or nitrogen in it such
beings as we are would perish. Then,
again, they may be SO different from
the men of earth, their lungs so diff
ferently constructed that they could
not only live but thrive without oxy-
gen and nitrogen. The question broad
ems, but how little real light is thrown
upon it.

CONFLICT AMONG
CHOCTAWS AVERTED
Federal Troops Take Hand and Do
the Peacemaker
Act.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. ia
serious conflict between partisans of
rival candidates for the goYernorship
of the Choctaw Indian nation, Indian
Territory, has been averted by the
presence of federal troops, according
to dispatches received at the interior
department.
Gov. Dukes, the outgoing governor,
who is said to be a partisan of Hunter,
one of the candidates, took charge of
the capitol building, assisted by arm
ed horSemen, and, according to Indian
Agent Schoenfeld, arbitrarily permit
ted persons to enter and sit as men,
bers of the Choctaw council upon
commissions issued by himself, and
refused to admit members having GER
tificates from regularly constituted au-
thorities. Agent Schoenfeld appealed
to Washington for troops. On their ar
rival the Choctaw council was permit
ted to enter the building and resume
it's sessions. The official dispatches
received today show that the vote Of
the council for the Office of principal
chief (governor) was counted yester-
day. Green McCurtain had a major
ity of $50 and was duly sworn in.
Agent Schoenfeld wires that the pres
ence of the troops prevented, clash
between contending factions, and that
he now anticipated no further trouble.
All the armed men in the Choctaw
capital or capital grounds have been
disarmed or removed by the troops.
Gov. Dukes made a determined fight,
as shown by the following telegram
he sent to the secretary of the in
terror:
agent Sehoenfeld has considered
disarming my peace officers and di-
recting my procedure. l am proceed
ing strictly within our constitution
and laws, and the election will be set
tied by our legislature fairly and just
ly between the contending factions 1t
will be done peaceably If Agent
Schoenfeld does not go beyond keeping
the peace. My peace officers are di-
rected to not even resent insults, but
simply to stand at their post of duty
and not permit my government to be
overthrown. I wash my hands of the
fatal results that may occur IL Agent
Schoenfeld insists on usurping any
authority as chief executive"
McCurtain also wired that by in
structions of Dukes, the 1atter's armed
light horsemen posted in the capltaI
ordered many members and council
officers from the building

expiration of time fixed by law, ana

The Cavilier way Of disposing of {
thing is not always the true way.
WHAT ARE THE MEN OF MARS?

That men talk most about those
things of which they know the least
was never more fully shown than on
the question of whether or not Mars
is inhabited. Prof George w. Hough
had no sooner stated that the planet is
inhabited, but there was no probable
ity that anybody on earth would ever
know to a certainty, than the astro-
nornical bright lights of the world be-
gan to get garrulous to an astounding
degree.

BULLETIN VERSUS ORGAN.

Gov. Van SAINTS press bulletin, pub
lished in the editorial columns of the
faithful so, charged Leonard A Ros-
ing a week or so ago with spending
the time of the extra session in lobby.
ing against the tax code and with be-
ing responsible for its defeat.
Mr.. Rosing in his speeches admitted
the charge and claimed credit for it.
The Winona Republican and Herald,
the personal organ of Gov Van SAINT,
at his -Winona home, now comes out
with the criticism:
Mr.. Rosing Endorsed the action of
the Republican legislature in defeating
the tax CODE"
Now it is plain that Gov Van SAINT
should get his bulletin and his organ
together.
They are as badly mixed as the gov
ernor and his correspondent on the coal
strike question.
The good Lord and good devil policy
does not always make good politics.
If the Republican candidate for gov
ernor wants to take to himself credit
for the defeat of the tax code, the pas
sage of which he advocated in a special
message to the legislature, why has his
press bureau peddled all over the coun-
try districts of the state the campaign
document which begins:
TT remains for the people of Mime
sofa to say if they want as governor
a man who during the extra session of
the legislature made it his exclusive
business to lobby against the tax bill.
This is what Mr.. Rosing,
the Democratic candidate for governor,
did"
On the other hand, if Gov. Van SAINT
criticises Rosing for defeating the tax
code which he himself as governor ad-
vocated by special message, why does
he now boast through his organ of
the action of the Republican legis-
lature in defeating the tax CODE" which
Mr. Rosing indorsed?
Is it the Van SAINT programme to
claim for the Republicans the credit of
the tax codes defeat when speaking
to city audiences, and to charge Rosing
with it's defeat when talking to country
audiences?
Has he one howl for the country
and the opposite for the city?
Has he one song for the bulletin
which stands for editorial in the col
umns of the faithful so rural hand or
gans, and another for the city organ
which has exclusively a city circula-
ton?
The Van SAINT habit of blow-Ilot and
blow-cold is becoming tiresome
Voters and taxpayers now know full
well that, first, Gov. Van SAINT advo-
Gated the tax code in special message
to the legislature; second, that Leon
ard A. Rosing opposed it with all his
influence, advocating in it's stead con-
stitutional amendment providing for
franchise taxation and an income tax;
third. that the legislature would not
have the tax code, and that it did
submit a constitutional amendment
which, although not all one could wish,
does permit of progress in the direc-
ton Of the tax reforms advocated by
Mr.. Rosing, and that the latter in his
speeches advocates the passage of said
amendment
