MESSAGE DAY.
The President Sends Three
Communications TO Congress.
One Is Devoted to tho Public
Land Laws.
NAVY PERSONNEL BILL
Is the Subject Of Another and
the Panama Canal
Furnished Subject Matter for
the Most Interesting One.

Washington, Dec 17.=Three mes
sages from the president were re-
ceived by congress today and their
reading took practically all the time of
the senate The reading was delayed
in the house by the fact that it was
suspension day. The messages were in
relation to the public land laws and
the navy personnel bill and a recount
ing of the presidents visit to inspect
the Panama canal. The latter mes
sage attracted great interest because
1t was elaborateiy illustrated, showing
the work on the great waterway in its
various stages. 1t was in the form of
q very entertaining story OF the presi-
DENTS visit. AS it was read the SEN
ators followed it closely from hand
Somely bound copies which had been
laid upon their desks.
At the request of Senator Hepburn
the message on public land laws was
ordered to be printed and to lie on the
table of the senate for the present.
The Idaho senator has conferred with
the president on the subject of the
recomme ndations contained therein
and intends to address the senate con-
corning them.
In tho Senate.
Washington, Dec 17.=Senators
Wryte and Rayner of Maryland each
presented resolutions in the senate to-
day touching the states right on the
question involved In the Japan Se
controversy The resolution of Mr..
Whyte resolves that there shall be no
increase in federal power by a strain
ed construction of the constitution at
the expense of the rights of the states.
Tho Rayner resolution provides that
the functions Of the executive shall be
limited to the performance of the du-
ties assigned to him by the constitution
and the legislation enacted Hereunder
and that there shall be no interfer-
ence by the executive in the legisla-
tive or judicial branches OF the gov
eminent or with the rights of the
states. 1t also resolves that the states
have no authority to surrender any or
their reserved rights under the const1-
tuition. Both resolutions were laid on
the table for future action.
In the House.
Washington, Dec. 1.-THE house
today began consideration Of the IN
dian appropriation in committee of the
whole.
The house also discussed a bill val
idating some 10000 certificates of nat
uralization which were issued by
courts, the clerks of which failed to in
quire whether the persons to- whom
the certificates were issued were an
archists or not

morning on a warrant sworn out by

It is claimed by the agent for the
railroad company that while the men
were loading their wagons with freight
at the depot for the patrons of the COM
pany, that they took the case of whisky
which was consigned to another firm.
1t is also claimed that the wet goods

were searched.
Both of the men have borne good rep

this is their first misstep and their
families will probably suffer for they

THEY WANT CHANGES.
Board of Control Would Have State
AsyIums Improved

The report proper of the board of
control is now being bound by the
state printer and will be ready for dis
tribution in a few days This is the
first annual and biennial report Of the
board which the law requires the
aboard to make to the governor and
legislature, and is a summary of the
law com ilation and the pamphlet de-
voted to the benevolent or charitable
work in Kansas and of the nine re-
ports of the state institutions under
charge of the board (which have al
ready been given out) and the recon-
mendations Of the board. One copy Of
this is now in the office of the board.
Under the topic, Saving to the
state" the board in part says:
1t can readily be seen from the dis
such a system will and does save
money to the taxpayers of the state,
but this is not and should not be the
primary object of purpose Each state
that has tried the board of control sys-
tenn has made a big saving, but the
other boards are laying more stress on
the care and treatment of the inmates
ana The scientific and clinical work
carried on in the institution.
We do not wish the fact of an eco
nomtcal administration of the financial
affairs to cut down the appropria lions
for these institutions, as the institu-
that they should cover. We want the
state hospitals put in shape so that
they can handle all of the insane and
so that they can be properly classified.
Persons who have been good citizens,
whose minds, by reason of brainsick-
ness, have become unsound, should not
be kept in jails or in the ordinary
county poor houses on account OF want
OF room in the state hospitals. Persons
who have been good citizens and who
are in the hospitals to be treated for
brairsickncss should not be compelled
to associate with insane criminals, or
with insane idiots or insane imbeciles.
We want to properly classify the pat
tents and to SO arrange it that tuber-
cular patients can be kept separate
from the other PATIENTS

Although the Kaiser Is thoroughly
imbued with the Importance OF his

himself infalllble, even though the
positiveness with which he sometimes
utters his opinions might lead one
sometimes to suppose so. AS soon.
however, as a different opinion pre-
scented in attractive form and based on
he Is always ready to modify his own
views. While placing value on little
things, the Kaiser has no inclina-
ton to be petty and. as Chancellor vsn
Buelow once said of him: He is no
Philistine." On the contrary, he Is a
thoroughly up-to-date monarch, and a
hustler. in the. best sense OF the
word. He rightfully has been called
a Yankee on a throne, and he himself
has expressed his appreciation. of the
energetic qualities of the American
by saying: Il can use only Americans
for my work. While fully in5ued
with the strength Of his own powers
the Kaiser at the same time realizes
that one can always learn new things.
In military and naval matters, how
ever, he likes to be considered an
authority. The Kaiser has an excel
lent knowledge OF men and a procer
appreciation Of the realities of life, but
combines with these qualities feelings
of deep sentiment. He is very atten-
tive to his friends and family. and IS
most kind to those who are otherwise
close to him, or in whome he Is greatly
interested. 1t will be remembered
how. when Queen Victoria died he
rushed to England and there, with his
own hands. assisted his royal relatives
in decorating his grandmother's cof-
