TO some detail of some one of these

The railroad rebate ill, rapidly

for the settled determination OF the
American people to require square

must pass. Its enactment and the
passage OF the other bills on the Re-
publican programme are all thus rem

purpose and action displayed, with In

has been extremely distasteful to many
congressman whose ideas Of statesman
ship seldom go beyond the matter OF
patronage. Men who, like Senator
Scott, of West Virginia, play politics
regarding public measure is what
will its effect be upon the party, do not
like Roosevelt.
The presidents enemies are making
q great deal of noise just now and his
friends are keeping comparatively
quiet, knowing that the noise will do
no harm and all the criticism Of the
president will be fully answered by the
latter's actions. When the time comes
the presidents champions in both
house and senate will see to 1t that he
gets all the defense that is needed. The
president, however, has way of meet
ing criticism himself that leaves very
little fcr his friends to supply.
But this policy Of meeting criticism
of the president has followed very eff
fectively in the case OF the Panama
canal. He has sent to congress every
scrap of information and every line of
record Of the transactions Of the Pan
anna commission and has told congress
that the reports he has transmitted
meet every criticism and attack that
has been made upon the commission
and upon the work done by the gov
eminent in Panama. He has followed
his policy Of publicity and has taken
the whole American people into his
confidence in his discussion and ex-
PLANTATION of what has been done to-
ward the construction of the Panama
canal. The verdict Of the people on
this report is what will affect the

dividuals, men with pockets stuffed
with 500 and $1,000 bills and beauti-
full, engaging women, filing the corri-
doris of the house and senate and reach
ing the members in their committee
rooms, there to effect arrangements,
financial or otherwise, for the men,
bers' support or opposition to certain
legislation. There are fairy tales about
gorgeous banquets being given, where
costly wines are served and the be-
fuddled congressman seduced into
pledges of support for questionable
bills. There Is little or no foundation
for these romances.
Lobbying Is being carried on, but 1t
Is on more dignited and extensive
scale than common reports suggest.
There will be any amount Of wire pull
ing, log rolling and lobbying in con-
nection with the railway rate legisla-
ton this congress is considering, but
anyone who expects to detect money
passing from lobbyist to congressman
or checks for goodly amounts thus ex-
changed will be disappointed.
Just now the greatest lobby that is
being discussed is that operating
against the statehood of Arizona. The
report is that the big mine owners in
that territory are too well content with
existing conditions to want statehood.
The assessments OF mines and railroads
are ridiculously low. One mining prop
erty, capitalized at $15,000,000, is as
sessed at $4,000. To keep this haly-
con condition Of affairs It is said the
big mine owners will spend money
away up in the seven figures, but there
will be no vulgar display of the ''long
green" II such campaign is entered
Upon. 1t Is much more likely that
members OF the senate and house Will
be given an opportunity to get in on
