These changes and that Of the retirement of Commissioner Rich- ards of the general land office on March 4' were announced in the following state ment from the White House today:
 The Secretary of the Interior, Mr. Hitchcock, has informed the President that he will be unable to stay after March i. MT. Hitchcock has for some tune felt that the very exhausting work he has been engaged in for over eight years in the interior department, was wearing on him so as to make it inn possible for him much longer to remain. At the Presidents earnest request he consented to accept the reappointment on March f. 1905, at the time of the Presidents inauguration, but he then stated that he could not say how long he could stay, and he feels now he must insist on being relieved after March l. The President urged him to accept the ambassadorship to France, but Mr Hitchcock feels that he is entitled to absolute rest and must refuse the offer"
 The President went carefully over with MT. Hitchcock the choice of a successor who could be depended upon to carry on with absolute equality the present policies of the department. and agreed with MT. Hitchcock that the best man to carry on the exceedingly onerous difficult and responsible work of the de- partment was MT. James R. Garfield, at present commissioner of corporations
 MT. Garfield has accordingly been noti- fled that he will be appointed on March f. when MT. Hitchcock retires
 Richards to Resign.
 Commissioner Richards has informed the President that, in accordance with his intention expressed to Secretary Hitch cock last May he will resign. his resigna- tion to be effective March 1. This will complete eight years of service in the land office, four years as assistant com missioner and four years as commits sioner. His successor has not yet been determined upon. The assistant commis- sioner of corporations, Mr. Herbert Knox Smith, will succeed MT. Garfield as com missioner of corporations. MT. Smith has filled the position of assistant corporation commissioner since August b, 1903. He was appointed from Connecticut.

Among other things there appeared in the Chicago Tribune and in some of the New York pspers on the morning of the election a statement to the effect that you proposed to elect four new directors entirely of vour own choice and not to re-elect the three outgoing directors.
 .,pefore the meeting Mir. Harahan, one of the outgoing directors, called upon you and asked you whether that statement was correct and you replied you would nominate him as a director if he would promise in advance to refuse the nomina- ion. which was itself an attempt to commit a breach of the agreement. He naturally declined to become party to such an attempt You appear finally to have reconsidered your intention as to the outgoing directors.

GEN. MANAGER HAPKE
 WILL REMAIN IN CHARGE
His Enthusiasm Over the Future of
 the Glendale Factory.

There has been more or less misln- formation regarding the connection of General Manager Theodore Hapke with the Eastern Sugar cOmpany's factory a Glendale. In some manner a rumor has gained circulation that his relation to the factory is merely that of a con- tractor and that at the end of the sea- sons run the factory will be taken off his hands and he will have nothing more to do with it.
 MT. Hapke was seen yesterday. in company with Secretary W. J. Doug lass of the Eastern Sugar company MT. Hapke said that it was true that he was the contractor who built the Glendale sugar factory. and that nat urally when the contract was fulfilled he would cease to be the contractor but that he would continue to be the general manager of the factory. as he is one of the largest stockholders in the Eastern Sugar company.
 MT. Hapke has been engaged in the erection of sugar factories for his com- pany in different parts of the country. On account of the remOteness of this one he was unable to give it so much of his personal supervision as he did the others but he sent Assistant Gen. eral Manager Lafayette Meyers and others of his ablest men to have charge of the operations.
 The Glendale factory. though erected in a hurry and under difficulties, he believes will be one of the best owned by the company, and there was not, he said, cloud on the horizon in this val ley so far as the making of beet sugar is concerned. This view was cOncurred in by MT. Douglass. who said that the company had ample funds to make this one of its best factories.
 The output of the factory, MT Hapke said. would Increase from year to year. Next year all the sugar would be made that they could get beets for and he said that greater care would be exer- cised in the planting and gathering of the beets. The seed would all be in ground before February. so that they might be harvested early, before the hot weather should set in.
 There will be an ample water sup ply, though MT. Hapke said it had not yet been determined in precisely what manner it would be secured. That, however. he said. was a by no means serious question.

ANOTHER CASE OF FANTODS.

Last week the Denver Demo-
crat had another fit over the tact
that we mildly expressed the
opinion that defeat this fall was
better than victory acquired by
corporation allegiance. They find
fault with this paper because they
say it is little, entirely overlook
ing the fact that it contains twice
the amount of home matter that
their own does. They think this
editor. ought to be drawn and
quartered for voting to throw the
Speer delegation out OF the con-
vention, and overlook the fact
that a majority of 400 favored the
act. They also see something
awful in the fact that we saw fit to
call this publication The News
PAPER instead of calling it the
Democrat or some other hack
neyed name that has come to
mean nothing. THE NEWSPAPER
means what it's name implies and
if you would take a lay off from
your Speer job of milk inspector,
and come over and see US you
would find that the people regard
it as THE NEWSPAPER too. When
you cut out your Patent Cuts"
and your unpattented and wholly
disreputable corporation politics
people may consider the Democrat
as not disgracing its name.

GENEROUS JESSE JAMES.

The donations offered by John
y. Rockefeller call forth a story
from Congressman Scott, OF Kan
sas, which, in brief, is as follow S !:
Years ago when Jesse lanes
was riding through Missouri on
horseback he stopped tor dinner
with a widow. She gave him the
best she had, but seemed very
sad, and Jesse inquired the cause.
After some weeping she informed
him that an old skinhint had a
mortgage on her place for $4,000;
1t was due and he would be alter
it that day, but she had not the
money to pay it. She was sure
he would dispo s5,s, her. After
some further questioning Jesse
went down into his pocket, and
from a roll counted out $1,000
and gave it to the woman to meet
her debt. He waived aside the
woman's thanks, and after asking
which way the rich man would
likely come, and the way he would
return, Jesse James rode away.
The creditor came in due time
and was surprised to receive the
money. but took it and rode
away through the woods. Some
distance from the house he met
Jesse James, who in his charac-
teristic way, not only collected
back the $1,000 he had given the
widow but got $1,000 in addition.
For some reason or other" says
Mr.. Scott, whenever | hear of
John d. Rockefeller giving money
to missions or colleges, l am re-
minded of that story; / don't
know why, but perhaps you can
figure It out"

BRYAN finds all kinds of fault
with President Roosevelt's mes
sage to congress; says it is demo
cratic and that some of the sug-

Bryan is rather presumptuous
individual anyway. Wherein has
he ever done or said anything
that elevated him to the position
of critic to the president7-Ex.
Inasmuch as he has originated
most of the ideas of government
so strenuously advocated by the
