The Subject Illuminated.

Some beated copies of the New York Sun shed
Illuminating effulgence the previously dark mys-
terry of the Denial of Senator Hepburn" 1t
Senator Hepburn who said the senatorial delegation
from Idaho had nothing to do with the disturbance in
the Idaho branch office of the department of justice,
excepting that the junior senator instrumental
in causing the removal of the federal attorney and
marshal
The appointment of their successors he charged
up to the president exclusively although there
listed a suspicion based on remarks made by the
Junior senator that he was an accessory before the
fact
The Washington correspondent of the New York
Sun explains the situation
The differences between President Roosevelt and
Attorney General Bonapare, which have had their
latest manifestations in the removal of federal mar
shall and district attorney in Idaho against the
wishes of Mr. Bonaparte, supposed not to be
lessened today by the appointment of successors to
those officials, nasmuch as the appointments were
made on the recommendation of Senator Borah who
caused the removal of the others despite Attorney
General Bonaparte's protest c. H. Llngenfelter is
appointed to succeed District Attorney Norman M.
Ruick and Shadrack L. Higgins is appointed marshal
to succeed Rue Rounds. Senator Hepburn, senior
senator from Idaho, opposed to the appointments
just made and he linked with Attorney Gen
eral Bonaparte in opposition to the removal of their
predecessors.
It is an additional triumph for Senator Borah
against whom District Attorney Ruck and Marshal
Rounds are said to have plotted to have him con-
victed of land frauds in Idaho. While the appoint
ments are taken further mark of confidence on
the part of the president in the Junior senator from
Idaho they also regarded further disre-
gard of the wishes of Attorney General Bonaparte
who, it is presumed, like Senator Hepburn was not
consulted
1t is thus succinctly stated that Senator Hepburn
along with the attorney general opposed the removal
of the two federal prosecuting officers and opposed
the selections made for the succession bv Senator
Borah and the president There was, according to
