during its session today listened To :;
criticism of the President on the part
of Mr.. Fitzgerald. n. y. for the fail
ure of the Chief Executive To properly
advise the House as To the objections
he had To the bill opening 505, ,U6O acres
of land for grazing purposes i'll Okla =
homa Territory, instead Of advising
the members of the Indian affairs com
mittee as to the weakness Of the meas
ure 50 that it might be amended tn
meet the wishes of the commissioner
of Indian affairs
Mr.. Fitzgerald in the course of his
structures of the President said:
This is not Russia. The President
is not like the Car, who originates
and enacts Legislation. The President
may recommend but he can neither
originate or enact legislation.
Somebody may say this is trivial.
The history Of all governments which
have parliamentary institutions shows
that the failure to resist trivial en-
roachmentS OH the part of the Chief
Executive has led to vast enruach-
ments until the Legislative branch of
the government existed in namt. only"

ton had no political significance what
ever. Hepburn objected and the bill
went over.
stephens. Texas. called up the bill
opening to settlement sos 600 acres Of
Apache Indian reservations in Okla
homa Territory. He stated that this
bill had PASSED the House early in the
session, but some objection was made
to it by the commissioner Of Indian at
fairs and it was therefore recalled
from the President and his objections
to the bill met by Incorporating into
the bill the features desired by the
commissioner.
Fitzgerald said that the manner in
which the bill was recalled from the
President was most unusual. That he
objected To the back door" way in
which the bill was returned to Con-
gress and thought the Chief Executive
should have either signed or vetoed
the bill.
PAYNE, n. ". called attention to the
fact that the President had not COM
municated his objections to the bill to
the House. but had informed the COM
mittee on Indian affairs where the bill
was weak and the committee rightly
had considered the measure in the light
of the objections ana had corrected
them.
The bill was passed without division

of the House bill, he did not consider il
an adequate measure. Instead of frig-

cOmprehensive measure that would

NeWlands cOntended that the bill
should fix a maximum percentage of
profit to be allowed To the roads and in
addition he would have a national in
CORPORATION act which would be the
most effective safeguard against oyer

MANsFIELD's GOOD FIGHT.
Heroic Ventures and Sacrifices Of thu
Actors Career.

Not only as an actor but as producing
manager did he make the good fight None
other has presented so many fine pro-
auctions in the face of failure He look
ed upon the public as child. When it
refused to recognize his efforts to educate
1t, he spanked 1t with intense verbal vigor
and went on toward his goal, certain that
he knew what the public should have.
This wasn't audacity. but the finest kind
of courage.
He was not afraid of losing money;
even the bugaboo of starvation could not
frighten him. He has known what 1t
Is. I have told in this department how
he tainted from hunger when he made
his first public appearance as an enter
tainer in London, whittier he had gone to
study painting. From the time he played
Koko in 1.-THE Mikado"-and l doubt If
there was ever an actor who played it
so well-through the period when he
was with Minnie Madden, now Mrs. Fiske
In Caprice" and I'm Spite of ALL" he
has worked harder than any other man on
the stage. His first great success was
him a star. His DIR Jekyll and Mr..
Hyde created sensation and he added
prince Karl to his repertoire to prove
that he could play a leading juvenile
role. In those days he wanted to DEM
onstrate his versatility, in which he is
equaled by no living star.
