CANDIDATE KNOX
IN WAITING MOOD

Washington. May 1.-(Special. |
Senator p. c. Knox OF Pennsylva-
mia Yves a highly complimented man
by being invited TO repeat at Carne-
gle hail, New York. on April 90,
the speech that he delivered at Kali |
amazoo, Mich, on February IL. The
title of this speech was "The Peo-
pie, the Railroads and the National
Authority" and was a comprehen-
sive and able resume Of the assump-
tion of control over the railroads by
the federal government.
At the time this speech was first
delivered II attracted wide attention
and the Civic Forum OF New York
was so impressed with 1t that its
members requested Senator Knox to
come TO New York and repeat the
address, which he did. II Is seldom
that an address by public man Is
thu' honored. Usually speech.
even though II be an able discussion
of a living topic. soon passes into
history. In this case Mr.. Knox en-
bodied in an hours talk so much
valuable material of such an en-
tightening character, that the prom
lnent and intellectual men who COM
pose the Civic Forum considered It
worthy of repetition.
Senator Knox has been beseigeJ
with invitations to make addresses
in all parts OF the country but with
a few exceptions he has been Obliged
to decline them. Mr.. Knox has an
old-fashioned notion to the effect
that senator Is under obligations
to stay in Washington during the
sessions OF congress and attend to
the duties Of his office and he does
not consider himself free TO absent
himself frequently. The days that
he has missed at the capital when
the senate was in session have been
very few and his absence then was
only due to important business that
required his attention.
on Decoration Day Senator Knox
has promised TO make the grafton at
the Gettysburg battlefield and ar
rang aments are now In progress for
this event. Two years ago the ora.
tor for Memorial Day on that his
toric ground was President Roose
welt and some OF the greatest mer
OF the nation have been honorej
with invitations TO speak there. The
subject OF Senator Knox's speech
has not been announced but II will
be OF historical and patriotic char
acter rather than an economic dis
cussion.
Upon the Adjournment % con
gress. probably about the middle o
MAY. Senator Knox will go 10 hi
farm al Valley Forge for the sum
liner. He will preserve the same at
titude towards the presidential nom
ination that he has from the start
and will make no canvass In an AT
temnt 10 get delegates He viii no

Lost in the Hills

Duke Harris returned to town from his trip to Knik, and brought in the report that Mir. Hunter, a man of about 70 or 75 years of age, and well known in Seward, had been lost in his attempt to make the Crow Creek Pass. Harris met Hunter on the trail and tried to persuade him to return to camp with him, but the sturdy musher persisted in going on, thinking he could make the pass and reach camp. A blinding snow storm came on which made it almost impossible for one to find either trail or camp. When it was discovered that Hunter had not reached camp a search was instituted which lasted for couple of days with out results. It is probable that the man lost the trail, fell over precipice into crevice in the ice and was bur- jed out of sight by the snow.
 Mir. Hunter had relatives in eastern Oregon from whom he last fall receiv- ed letters urging him to quit the Northland and return to his former home, but the old man would not yield to their importunities.
