District Attorney Soper Returns
From the Capital With Good
News.

United States- District Attorney
Pliny l.. Soper returned from
Washington at eleven O'Clock to-
day over the Frisco. Mr.. Soper
says the prospect for the enact
ment of the Curtis bill introduced
last Saturday is excellent. The
senate Indian committee unani-
mously agreed Saturday to report
the bill favorably and Mr. Curtis
promised that the house commit
tee would do likewise. The meas
ure, Mr.. Soper thinks will become
a law before adjournment of con-
gress. 1t has the Endorsement Of
Chief Burlington and Judge Benge
of the Cherokees and of Tams Blk
by of the Dawes Commission and
also Secretary Hitchcock. With
reference to the appointment of
Mellette and Darrough he is con-
fident that both will be appointed;
the appointment of Mr.. Melletta
has virtually been agreed to and
the indications for Darrough's ap-
pointment are exceedingly favor
able.

to report to the house favorably
the bill introduced Friday br Mr..

nation. Mr.. Curtis will make an
effort to get this bill through early
in the week. As it has been in.
troduced by representatives of the
Indians and also by the interior
department, it is likely that the
house will pass it without serious
opposition"

ROOSEVELT AND BURTON
The Kansas Senator viii Not Play In
White House Back Yard.


Senator Burton will receive no
further consideration from Presi-
dent Roosevelt. The. president
has taken an emphatic stand with
reference to Mr.. Burton's course in
the Cuban reciprocity controversy,
and in the future he will be re-
garded as an enemy of the admin
istration and will be treated as
such. Tnis can be stated posi-
lively.
H. Z. Richter, whom Mr.. Bur-
ton wants appointed marshal for
the northern district of the Indian
Territory, win not be appointed.
"Pete" Foley, who trains with
Mr.. Burton in politics and is
counting on the senator, will be
removed, and Wiegam. the candi-
date Of Representative Miller, sup
ported by Mr.. Burton for postmas
ter at Emporia. will bs turned
downforsome otberrepublican. Pol
iticians at the capital were amazed
when they read in the newspapers
OF Mr.. Burton's intemerate speech
at the republican senatorial con-
ference last week, and there was
not a little speculation as to what
effect his renmarks would have at
the White house.
That President Roosevelt would
take notice of the incident was
not donbted for moment, but the
politicians were hardly prepared
for the determined attitude as
sumed by the president. It is
now generally accepted as fact
that the senator will be disciplined
and that his course in the Cuban
controversy will be resented by
the most effective means at the
presidents command. Kansans
at the capital discussed the devel.
opments Of the Cuban controversy
affecting Mr.. Burton with much
interest. 1t mas been known here
that the senator was especially
anxious for the appointments of
Richter and Foley, and there
have been many expressions of
surprise over bis action on the re-.
ciprocity issue. That a break
would come between him and the
president was considered inevita-
BILE by some OF his closest friends,
and they advised him to go slow
and pursue careful course. The
speech OF last week, however,
brought Mr.. Roosevelt to reali-
cation OF the situation. In the
judgement of the president it was
the limit.

NOW THE MESSAGE.

More than ordinary interest will be
evinced in President Roosevelt's mes
sage to congress. The great Republi-
can victory of Tuesday was 60 closely
identified with the president as an
endorsement of his policy and public
sentiment in favor of certain recon-
mendatioDs he has heretofore made
cannot now be ignored. It is believed
that the president will recommend an
amendment to the Sherman antitrust
law.
The president is convinced that the
American people demand some new
legislation in regard to the trusts and
he will not only renew the recon-
mendations in his message last year,
but emphasize them and place such
recommendations first in his message.
1t is question of such vital impor
lance That he does not believe congress
should delay action beyond the point
of finding a safe method Of amending
the law and keeping within the
limits of its constitutional power.
Attorney General Knox is convinced
that COL gress can amend the Sherman
law 30 as to req ire publicity and
prevent the evil of over capitalization
He is also convinced that the law can
be SO amended as to reach the great
trusts which under their present or
ganization evade the law and at the
same time indirectly interfere with
interstate commerce and seek to mo-
Dopolize trade.
President Roosevelt will press his
Cuban reciprocity policy and other
important suggestions will be made.

and the board Of trade

wherein this city is at fault. 1t is
apparent that Msnkato is not suffi-
GENTLY equipped with 6rst-class hotel
accommodation even at times when
there are no extraordinary gatherings
here. When conventions are held here
or meetings of any nature the hotels are
overtaxed and the visitors find the

Press regrets that SO much must be
admitted, but it is better that the
people face the truth a. d set about at
once to remedy the fault, rather then
try to cover it up and make the mat
ter worse.
Mankato is growing city and more
! strangers come here daily than to any
other point in the state outside OF the
twin cities. In view of this fact ample
horel accommodations should be pro-
vided.
Regarding the other grievances set
forth in The Registers article The
Free Press is not aware that the peo-
pie here do not take interest in the
gatherings Mankato is pleased to
| have the teachers meet here and il
there has been any sighting of the
visitors it was not intended. and it il
,, regretted that the teachers should have
thought they were being sighted.
The local committee in charge Of
the meetings should have made known
to the proper commercial bodies the
complaints, if they were aware that
any existed, and the entertainment
committees would have been pleased
and would have exerted themselves te
meet the emergency.
But that is neither here nor there.
Mapkato should have another first
class hotel to meet a growing de-
maud.

GIVE VAN SAINT CREDIT.

Newspapers throughout the state
have had much to say of the recent
e'ection and several reasons are given
why Governor Van SAINT achieved
such a remarkable victory, Some
writers are inclined to take the credit
from the governor and place it in the
hands of President Roosevelt. whom
they aver is very popular in Mime
sofa, and because of this popularity a
great many men voted for Governor
Van SAINT in order to express their sp-
prevail of the policy of the president.
There is not the slightest question of
President Roosevelt's popularity in
Minnesota and in 1904 he will receive
the hearty and cordial support of Re-
publicans in this commonwealth for q
denomination but it is not just the
proper thing to take from Governor
Van SAINT the credit that is due him.
Governor Van SAINTS administration
has heen of such a successful charac-
ter that the people felt pleased with it
and his attitude on the merger PROPOSE
tion convinced the public that he was
sincere in his action to curb any move
on the part of railroad magnates tc
violate the law. The fact must not be
over looked, too, that Governor Van
SAINT is very popular man with the
masses Being man of the people,
one who delights to mingle freely
with them, there is every reason why
the governor should receive such a
magnificent plurality as was rendered
him.
