THE WAR ON Mr.. SM00I
The Senate Will Give Him His Seat

ing, Washington.
Washington, Jan. 19.-The president,
now that the Utah legislature has ex-
pressed an intention to elect Reed Smoot
to the senate, will not interpose any OBJ
lection, but will favor his reception in
that body without any further question.
It may also be said that republican SEN
timent in the senate does not incline
toward any opposition to the acceptance
OF the Smoot credentials. The committee
on privileges and elections has been can
vassed and it's members agree that no
reason exists for raising any question as
to Shoots right to sit in the senate.
At the same time, the senate leaders
have been advised that it is the intention
Of the w. c. T. U. and similar bodies all
over the country, reinforced by ministers
associations and the churches generally,
to begin a campaign against Smoot SINH
lar to that waged so successfully against
Roberts in the last house. Petitions will
come into the senate by the wagon load,
and the religious people Of the country
will do their utmost to cause Smoot
trouble. But while advised of the i'm
pending storm, it remains true that the
senate thinks Smoot should be seated
The good people will find the senate q
much more difficult body to move thar

he became convinced that his silence

such story as this. Indeed l
doubt whether any finite number
Of mere human witnesses could ever
make me believe it. Half a dozen of
the most credible people whom | know
are agreed as to the facts, and l myself
was present when the affair came to its
close. yet cannot make up my mind
ip regard to it.
The incidents as they are alleged to
have taken place are exceedingly SIM
pie Stanley Winthrop was man who
had been much given to athletic sports
in his early life. When he was in col
lege and l was little. snub nOsed, free
kled schoolboy l used to look up to him
and envy his fame He was the son OF
the richest man in our town.
Shortly after the close of his college
life Winthrop inherited nearly all his
fathers property. He travelled for
few years and then settled down to
quiet and monotOnOus life in our town.

not very much in the summer. to be

When he was nearly forty years old
he made most unromantic match. He
married girl who had been born and
bred in the town and was content to
live there all her days with her hus-
band BY that time had sought wider
fields, and my knowledge of Winthrop
was derived from home letters and
lr;of 1S IF
summer vacations.
Mrs. Winthrop lived about two years
in a placid state of bcatitude, as | am
Informed. and then she died of Dneu-
monia.
Some one wrote to me that Winthrop
was taking his bereavement very hard;
that his condition gave alarm to his sis
ter and other near relatives who lived
with him in tie big house in Maynard.
which is the name of our town. He
seemed to show no power of recovery.
no interest whatever in life. 1t was
necessary. indeed, to take some pains
with him in order that he might not
neglect the proper nOurshment of his
body for such an engine as that re-
quires fuel.
Some weeks after receiving this &C.
count received letter from my
mother I will quote few lines Of II
here:
STANLEY Winthrop does not improve
in health. but he has made up his minC
to travel for a few months. and they
hope that that will benefit him. There
is strange story about this intention
of his. and l am going to tell 1T to you

you will think it mere nonsense. l hat
