SENATOR KNOX REMAINs COOL.

Senator Knox one of the trio named by ex-
Senator Chandler having been criticised by
the president. refused to get excited over the
report as he said that the president knew him
too well and knew his desire to enact consti-
tutional legislation too well ever to have charged
him in private with having a purpose to
defeat the bill. Mr.. Knox is one of the weltried
friends of President Roosevelt who can talk
to the latter like Dutch uncle. and the pres
ident takes his lecture in good part. 1t is re-
membered that year or two ago fu!some
magazine article published by wall
known writer in which the present Secretary
Root Landed to the skies and President
Roosevelt quoted saying that Mr. Root could
fill any position in the cabinet and would make
a better secretary of state than Mr.. Hay or q
better attorney general than MIR. Knox

THE "GoLD-DUsT TWINS

Two members in the senate are getting
a large snare of credit for securing sane and
constitutional measure through that body. These
Senators Knox. of Pennsylvania, and Crane.
of Massachusetts Mr. Knox has taken high place
in the senate during his first term because of the
reputation he had when he entered that body.
His advice has been sought and his opinion re-
spected far beyond that which is accorded to new
members. He has made but one set speech. but
his Interruptions have been frequent and always
some vital point in the rate bill. Mr.. Crane
entered the same time that MIR. Knox did and
brought with him the reputation Of being a superb
organizer.
When it seemed imperative that an amend
ment should lie made to the rate bill to make 1t
constitutional in the judgment of the majority OF
lawyers in the senate, Mr.. Knox was given the
task of convincing his colleagues that the amend.

inevitable signs of approaching adjournment.
Passages steamships abroad have been en-

New Mexico are projected and many congress
men studying railway maps and steamship
itineraries much more closely than they are
