AT the shouts of the leader, the rest
OF the escort committee crowded
about.
"Who? What? What is it?" they
cried.

at that in a body the committee
rushed for Coleman.
He appeared just in the midst oil
the excited men.
"Is there anything can do for you,
gentlemen" He was the only cool
man in the lot. They pressed about
him. The cabin was loud with their
oaths, demands and denunciations.
Coleman was calm and as smiling as
the proverbial basket Of chips.
He was awful sorry, but he ran on
schedule time. and his boat could not
stop for anything.
Then the escort went crazy. They
drew their pistols and threatened the
captain.
"Do you know, sir" cried one ex.
citable man, shaking his pistol in the
face of the smiling officer, edo you
know, sir, what you are deingi You
are kidnapping the President OF the
United States"
"And do you know, sir" retorted
Coleman, that the President OF the
United States is eiding on my boat
without my invitation or my permis-
sion?"
The escort committee gssped.

The committee fell back. They
might kill the captain, but the boat
would not stop. Then they went for
Gen. Taylor.
The President came out looking
very solemn.

he shook his finger in Capt. Cole.

Then he turned to the angry. snlky

OLYMPIA WASHINGTON: FRIDAY EVENING" JAN II 1902

self to Secretary Long very freely on
the subject. And yet it is no more
than he should have expected from
the men who are in authority in that
Department.
The people of the United States will
learn with relief that there is little
chance for Senators Frye and Hanna's
ship subsidy bill. Had the Senator
from Ohio retained the influence he
had during the last administration
there is little doubt that the bill in its
present form would have become a
law, but the clever side-tracking OF the
Ohio dictator has robbed him of his
power to such an extent that, in spite
OF the fact that Senator Frye reorgan.
lied the Senate Commerce Committee
with the express purpose OF assuring
the favorable reporting of this meas.
ure, there 10 still majority of the
committee against it. Senators Nc.
MILAN and Nelson are frank in their
statements of disapproval OF the bill,
and it is known that Senator Elkins
is not we'll disposed towards it. 1t is
further believed that even if the bill
were to get through the Senate it
would be defeated in the House.
Speaker Henderson has himself noti-
fled Senator Hanna that, in case the
bill comes before his committee, he
will vote with the Democrats for its
defeat.
A number Of Senators have their
eye on a very attractive junket. They
desire to be sent as a committee of
Congress to represent the legislative
branch OF the government at the coro-
nation Of Edward VII. Senator Cul.
lOm will introduce in the Senate a
resolution providing for such q dele
CATION soon after Congress reassem-
bles, and it seems probable that it will
pass the Senate. Whether or not it
will pass the House is another ques-
tion. The delegation would, OF course,
include number of Representatives,
and with all expenses paid out Of the
Treasury there is every reason to be.
lieve that the trip would prove most
delightful one, but, as only a few
members of the House could be Sc
lected and all would probably be
called to account by their constitu-
ents for voting for such an expensive
junket, its fate in that body is dubi-
Gus.
The extent to which the sentiment
in favor of further consideration of
the merits Of the Panama canal route
is growing is quite remarkable and it
is by no means likely that either the
Morgan or the Hepburn bill will pass
the Senate without an extensive and
comprehensive discussion of the merits
Of the Panama route. There is no
partisan division on the subject and
opinions are being formed regardless
of party afiliation. While there is no
tendency TO underestimate the efforts
of the Walker Commission To arrive at
correct discussion, it is believed that
the price of $1,000 900. which the
French company placed on their
property, was sufficient in itself to
warrant the Commission in its ad.
verse recommendation, and now that
it seems probable that the plant can
be bought for $40, ,000, 900, many mem.
bers believe that it should receive fur
ther consideration. Dem.

The same thing, of course on an ex-
ceedingly small scale, is going on here.
The Wilson and the Ankeny forces
never lei an opportunity slip to get at
the throat of the other faction, and
the opposition never said meaner
things of the leaders of the respective
clans than each says of the other.
They do not have the diplomacy OF
their more exalted prototypes. They
hurl the bludgeon of bulldozer" and
/" liar" at each other, in the absence OF
argument to sustain their contentious.
If these malcontents were wise, they
whuld literally whet their razors in
oil, and lay clean cut to the bone,
rather than to use their jsgged-edge
jack-knives in tearing the flesh into
repulsive wounds. But it seems that
the odor OF the hesh-pot makes the
rabble wild when their noses are point
ed in q direction that seems to favor
their chances for reaching it in pro-
miscuous scramble. So we may ex.
pect the merry war to go on, though
they wallow in gore.

PARTY DISQUIETUDE.

Things are not going we'll in the
Cabinet nowadays, either officially or
socially. Whether Teddy is a bit too
strenuous for the Mckinley contingent
or there is well-laid plan to hinder
the smooth running of the Admins
trative machine, Or both, has not yet
fully developed. Naval Secretary Long,
who, it is expected, will 60 out OF the
Cabinet within few weeks, will, it is
said, leave on bad terms with the Pres
ident and several of his colleagues,
both personally and officially. During
his remaining brief tenure of office, he
will socially ignore the Roosevelts, due,
it is given out, to the fact that the
Long family is in mourning for the
death of a daughter. Grief has hith.
erto never justified Cabinet officer in
omitting each seasons formal dinner
to the President and other members
OF the Cabinet. But the Longs will
give no dinner and back OF that is the
story Of o remarkable correspondence
between the Secretary and Mrs. Root,
wife of the Secretary OF War. Some
time before Christmas, the ladies of
the Cabinet decided to club together
and buy a present for Mrs. Roosevelt.
As Mrs. Long does not live in WASH
ington, Mrs. Root wrote to Secretary
Long asking how much Mrs. Long
would give. The Secretary replied
perfunctorily that Mrs. Long did not
care to contribute. Not long after
ward, Mrs. Root asked Secretary Long
when he proposed to entertain the
President and Cabinet and was an
swered that inasmuch as the Long
family was in mourning, no such din
ner would be given. To this Mrs.
Root sent q caustic reply, in which
she said that she gathered from the
Secretary's note that, as he did not
care to entertain, he would probably
not accept invitations. To this Sec
retary Long made no answer. And
there the matter rests. Which only
goes to show that pair Of refined
Kilkenny cats isn't really in it with
the present Cabinet of the President
OF the United States.
