pears q letter from Mr.. John Refer
son, president OF the Scandinavian Re-
publican League OF Dawson county. to
Senator Knute Nelson OF Minnesota,
and the senator's reploy. The follow
ing Is the English rendering OF Sena-
tor Nelson's letter:
Washington. ID. c., April 2, 1908.
Hon. John Reierson. President Sean
dinOvian Republican League, Davi-
o County, Mitchell. S. d.
Dear Sir:-Your favor of March
28th. asking my views as to the stand
ing. services, and qualifications OF
Senator Kittredge as a senator n as
to whether he has worked In harmony
with the president, is at hand.
In reply | desire to say that so far
as | know he has supported all he
prominent recommended by
the administration. He was particu-
larly active in helping to secure pas
sage of the railway rate bill, and on
that subject was entirely in harmony
with the president, and so far as |
know he has the full confidence OF
both the president and Secretary Taft.
I may say that on all great public
questions he has always been on the
side of what I term reform and on
the side of the people. He sits quite
near me in the senate chamber and
usually cOnfers with me about public
questions when they come up for con-
alteration. and ! hardly know OF an in
stance where he has not assumed the
same attitude n taken the same
curse on public matters that have.
In fact, / have always felt that /
could rely upon him for help to secure
the passage Of any meaRREa that~a@g
3SoSle. Senafor Kittredge IL one u
the most energetic and industrious
members of the senate. have serv-
ed with him for several years on the
judiciary committee, which deals with
important legal and constitutional
questions, and / have always found
his judgment clear and sound and
have found him eve ready to take q
broad and liberal view of all questions
that appertain to the rights Of the
people. His standing in the senate
Is excellent: in fact, none OF the
younger senators are held in better
repute or have more friends in this
body. While Senator Kittredge does
not pretend to be q great orator. yet
in all the hard work that goes to for
mulate and prepare legislation and
get in shape for final action. he is
Is active, efficient. and energetic as
any member of this body. / think
your young state is very fortunate,
indeed, in having such an able repre-
sentative In the senate as Senator
Kittredge. Yours truly.
-knute Nelson.
