Politically Speaking.

Ii is reported here That Senator
Long will return to Washington on
New Years day and that he will press
the appointment of certain Kansans
for positions in Indian Territory.
Long held a conference with politi-
clans in that state and 1t Is believed
that an agreement will be reached
whereby Allen will withdraw for the
attornevsnip in favor of Topeka
man. Allen. however, will be rewarded
in case the slate goes through. II Is
reported that Mr.. Allen cant win, the
Interior department having protested
against his selection. This being the
case, he will gladly withdraw and give
Long the opportunity of naming
man for the place.
According to the report, II 1t is
true, if the president will listen to
Judge Clayton of the Central district
Col. Humphrey will be appointed. 1t
Is now generally understood that the
action of the various aspirants for
appointments, first in their struggle for
endorsement. and later by their
charges against each other before the
departments, inn He'd the president
to call in Judge Clayton in order that
he could get direct information and
conservative advice in connection
with territory affairs. The president
evidently listened to Clayton in the
atham appointment. 1t is said that
Clayton is backing Humphrey, bat
that the peculiar situation makes the
outcome a matter of doubt.
1t is now certain that Soper will
have nothing to say concerning ap-
pointments. 1t is understood that he
has no standing at Wash lSton with
he departments. and therefore his rec
ommendation will count for nothing.
If reports are true Jrls1 clayton
will be supreme in the mlt'er 0f ap-
pointments in the future, an1 tha5 the
