OF course, Cyrus Leland is the real
leader in the house, but he is not
speechmaker. Leland is more infiuen-
til by far than any other individual

carry more weight than from score
of other members. not because Of any
orarory which may accompany it but
because it comes from Cyrus Leland.
But not counting these two, there are
number of young fellows-and some
perhaps not quite so younR--who are
thinkers and appear TO be clean and
honorable above everything else. They
are the sort of men from whom one ex-
poets things. They are not afraid to ex-
press their opinions and to stand up for
them. In this class one thinks of Kinkel
of Reno. jerks of Franklin. Gale of
Mcpherson. Peck of Cloud. Stavely and
Pringle of Usage, Hale of Rush, Hutch
eson of Pratt, and others.
Then there are the other kind-len
perhaps just as honest, but from whom
one never hears an opinion: men whose
faces are not known to any except the
members who sit in their imme diaIe VI

bate. They vote when their names are

Metcalf as follows: LAS the several
times repeated but as yet unsubstantia-
ted story which charges General Wilder
S Metcalf with wantonly shooting a
Filipino prisoner is again boDbing up l
wish to tell a little story showing the
character of the man against whom
these charges are made In 1895 I was
engaged in business venture ar
Chandler, Ok wherein z. w. Metcalf
an uncle of Wilder s. had a financial
interest Wilder, as his uncles repre-
sentative, said me visit of several
days duration, during which time we
spent an afternoon driving over the sur
rounding country. Mr. Metcalf is an
enthusiastic sportsman and a crack
shot In the carriage with us was
Frank W. ROSh, an ex-member of the
Kansas legislature. who had similar
tastes and the CONVERSE ton naturally
drifted into hunting stories. When the
subject of pot shots was preached Met
calf expressed a strong disapproval OF
that method, saying that while he Went
hunting because he wanted quail, he be
lieved in giving the birds a chance.
Those who know General Metcah per-
sonalIy will readily agree with me that
the story and sentiment are characters
tic of the man and scout the idea that a
man who would not take an unsports-
mahlike advantage of game bird
would be guilty of the charges made
against him.
