Il have known Bishop Satterlee since

When he was teacher OF a Bible class
in Calvary Chapel, New York. where

years I have had a strong personal
friendship with him.
Labor in Other Fields.
when Bishop Satterlee was ordained
he went from New York to WappIngers
Falls. on the Hudson. and IN that parish
did magnificent work. There were men
of wealth there, and many factory opera
tives. He had the sympathy OF both. and
had sympathy for them.
From Wappingers Falls. DR.. Satterlee
was called TO the parish of Calvary
Church, New York. While there he de-
yelOped a great deal of what might be
called institutional work He established
many Institutions for the benefit OF the
working people. and showed great talent
in that direction.
After years Of labor there he was
elected to be bishop OF this diocese. His
splendid zeal and success were manifested
in the great cathedral and its schools
But the glorious results Of his labor here
are well known to the people Of this city
Bishop Satterlee was a man OF Cody
life and peculiarly prayerful spirit. These
things I speak from an intimacy OF more
than thirty years. and they but poorly
express my feelings and affection for
him"
Bishop Walker is at the present time
one Of the most prominent figures in the

The board exists for the purpose Of for
mulating reports and suggesting legisla-
ton on Indians and matters pertaining

A recital OF cases coming under his

A picturesque fight for election to
the Senate, that will not be without IN
terest in Maine, because one of Names
sons is the central figure. will be
waged this autumn in California.
While many Maine men have come TO
the Senate from other states, few have
maintained themselves there for long
tenure. Sen. George Clement Perkins
of Oakland, native of Kennebunkport,
Maine, however, has been in the SEN
ate for Is years and has now declared
himself a candidate for reelection.
Ordinarily senators do not hold on very
long from California 1t comprises an
ambitious constituency, where there
are numerous conflicting interests and
where numerous candidates are spring
ing to the fore to get toga. A sena-
tor from California has generally had
very hard time holding on for more
than one term But Perkins has served
two terms and almost half of another.
1t is generally conceded that he is one
of the smoothest politicians on the
coast This Maine born senator is now
So years old, one Of the few aged men
left in the Senate, after the heavy NOR
IdhtS AItC lilOiIS uAc OlO IACA SAASA 2
during the last eight months. There
are no other Maine born men in the
Senate than Mr.. Perkins, saving only
the two, of course, that now represent
the State. Senator Stephenson of Wis
consin comes near it. but was born in
New Brunswick. Only two other New
England states. however, have native
sons in the Senate from other states.
New Hampshire furnishes Senators
Kittredge of South Dakota, who is
likely to be beaten for re-election; and
Frank o. Briggs of New Jersey; Mas
sachusetts has Senator Frank P. Flint
of California;; Jonathan Bourne of Ore
gon; and Francis E. Warren of Wy
oming. All the native Maine men in
the House from other states are likely
to have an easy time getting back for
another term the coming November.
Col. DIS. Alexander of Buffalo, now
one of the oldest men in the New York
congressional delegation in point of
service, has practically life tenure of
his seat. He has done SO many good
things for his district that the Repub-
licans have no idea of trying to get
another man as long as Col. AleXan-
der will keep the place. Rep. F. G.
Stevens of st. Paul is in like happy
position with reference to tenure. 1t
is altogether probable that Frank W.
Nye, from tie Minneapolis district will
be renominated and reelected. Rep.
Ernest W. Roberts of the seventh
Massachusetts district, another Maine
man, will probably be unopposed this
year. Adm B. Capron of Rhode Island,
who was educated in Maine, has be-
come one of the veteran members Of
the House and has every prospect Of
getting back for another term. He is
the great story teller Of Congress.
