"Parsons' idea of party harmony is
to throw bricks at my friends. There
was no talk of Odell or anti-Odell in
the county committee. The trouble
was all due to Mr.. Fassett. He changes

POSTAL FRANKS

Stevens Would Extend Mailing
Privilege to Officers-Down-
fall of Campsite Plan.
By w. w. Jermane.

Washington, Dec. 21.-Representa
i've Stevens of Minnesota has intro
mced a bill to provide for the extern
ion of the free mailing privilege to all
ffcers of the national guard OF the
.everal states composing the organized
Exchange and transmission OF all oth-
ial mail matter relating exclusively to
he military service. Should this bill
;ecome a law it will facilitate the dis
examination of military information
mong the several state militia organ,
ations, something which the National
tuard association has asked Tor at
very annual meeting held for the past
everal years.
Mr.. Stevens has also introduced a
ill increasing the appropriation Tor
he militia from $1,OOO,0O0 to $4,000
90. Further provisions in the bill look
o the amendment of the national mill
ia act so as to permit the payment
expenses Of state militia teams par
icipating in the annual shooting con,
ests at Sea Girt or other places, and
or the construction Of shooting gal
cries and target ranges for local use

&c and promote rife PRACTICE among

Ton Of $1,2O9,S00 to pay the expenses

um is to be used for "paying the ex-
enses of the organized militia in any
tate OF territory participating in joint

truction of the regular army and mill
ia, as provided in the militia act.'
No Camp Site Purchase.
No mention is made, either in the re-
ort Of the secretary of war or the
resident IS message regarding the .pur-
base of camp sites for holding joint
laneuvers. Both have expressed them
slves as favorable to the participation
the militia in Joint camps, however,
nd that is the extent of their urging.
1t is believed that this lack OF inter-
at in the matter of camp sites means
nat no legislation looking to the pur..
he country will be enacted in this con-
ress.
The downfall Of the camp-site move
lent is attributed to the extravaganza
tanner in which the M anassas maneu,,
ers were conducted. AS planned and
arried out, the spectacle at the F1r-
mia battlefield rivaled the kingly ma
euvers Of Germany, at which the en-
srtainment is on a lavish scale This
aused officials of the government to
old up their hands in horror and de-
srmine that there should be no repeti-
ion of such waste of public money.
It is probable that Secretary Taft $
equest for an appropriation to meet
ne expenses of joint maneuvers and
amps at places already in possession

ill be granted, but there won't be
ny appropriation for buying perma
emit camp sites.

ROOSEVELT'S ATTITUDE

with whom he has talked that his de-
sire is that that shall be done which
will best promote not only the interests
Of the republican party of New York
but of the whole people of the. state.
A day .or two ago the candidacy of
J. W. Wadsworth, Jr., for the speaker
ship was announced, and an impression
was conveyed that Mr.. Wadsworth was
the presidents candidate. This i'm
preston was doubtless due partly to the
fact that Mr.. Wadsworth was guest
of the president at luncheon last Sat-
urday.
On the authority Of men who have
since discussed the New York situa-
ton with President Roosevelt, it can be
said with knowledge Of the absolute
accuracy of the statements that the
president was as much surprised as any
body could have been when he saw in
| the newspapers the announcement of
Mr.. Wadsworth's candidacy.

was made yesterday when, after a con.
ference which included some of those
opposed to the candidacy Of j. W. Wads,

call a conference of all republican mem.

city on Friday. Tho Mr.: Wadsworth
was not consulted, friends Of E. A
Merritt, Jr., also candidate for the
speakership, said that the call would
include the adherents of both camps
and that it was intended to get the
members together for an expression OF
their views on the action of Governor
Higgins in supporting Mr.. Wadsworth

And keen at work the busy clerk with
