THE CONGRESSIONAL
PROGRAM.
Senators and Representatives Trying To
Get Together on Q Policy for tine Win.
ter

There will be many . Republican
powwow between House members, be-
tween Senate members, and between
Senators and Representatives during
the next two or three weeks. Possibly
something of general legislative pol
icy for the short session will be formu-
lated. Certainly there will be much
sounding of sentiment among the leg
islators. regarding measures that Presi-
dent Roosevelt wants and that Mr..
Taft as President is likely to want.
Mr.. Roosevelt is showing portions of
his message to the older Senators and
Representatives as they come to see
him.
The membership of Senate and House
remains unchanged for the approach
ing session. With an exception or two
no new men will come into either
branch after March who can be
counted upon to become forceful fac
tors for liberaliZing the law-making
power. The older men who hold posi-
tions of leadership or of influence in
the House are arguing that an analysis
Of the November elections discloses
little or nothing that can be Interpreted
as a rebuke to the policies adopted on
the Hill for the last four years. Sem
ate leaders are a little less serene in
their attitude, because the Western elec-
tions will bring a few progressive Re-
publicans into that body. as well as an
additional Democrat or TWO.
Representative Burton, of Ohio, will
loom large in the preliminary parleys,
because, according to all the prospects,
he will be looked upon as a personal
spokesman of the President-elect. He
assumed that role at least the ether
day, when he gave out formal state
ment at Hot Springs about Mr. Taft's
attitude toward the revision of the
tariff and toward the organization of
the next House. His committee room
at the Capitol will become a mecca for
Representatives who wish to be on espe-
cially good terms with the new Admin
istration. He has never been particu-
larly chummy with Mr. Cannon. As
the two foremost Republicans in the
House they have frequently differed.
An opinion prevails here that before
the coming session of Congress has
adjourned Mr.. Burton will stand forth
as prospective member of Mr.. Taft's
Cabinet Ohio men say he is not likely
to win the Senatorship from that State,
but that Mr.. c. p. Taft will. When
once that is decided it would be entirely
logical for Mr.. Burton to be invited
into the Cabinet. His ability and his
familiarity with Government affairs
qualify him to hold any one of three or
four Cabinet portfolios the new Presi-
dent might wish to assign to him.

of the States are still under their ma
tive rulers and enjoying very large
measure of local self-government. Many
of these States are larger than our own
States, and have a population exceeding
that of our most populous Common
wcalths For example, Hyderabad is as
large as Kansas or either of the Dako-
tas, and has a population of 11.141,1 142
or more by several millions than the
great State of New York. The ruler is
called a Nizam. He has native army
of 5000 men, and is very loyal to the
British Government Mysore is about
as large as Virginia, and has a popula-
ton of 5,44S,923. 1t is ruled by Ma
haraja, and has an army of 1000 men.
1t is hardly likely, as said before, that
there can be any trouble approaching
that of the Sepoy rebellion in 1857, but
the British are taking efficient steps to
insure against such a calamity.

by the men. The Union soldiers were
scattered by the charge, but they gath
cred in little groups and loaded and
fired. 1t was a shot from one of these
groups that hit Johnston. Gov. Harris
asked Johnston If he was wounded, and
the General replied: Yes, fatally, be-
lieve." Broome helped lift Johnston
from his horse and laid him on the
ground, but he never spoke again, dying
two minutes afterward.

 Nov, I'm not opposed to Cupid in any way, but I don't think he has any right to be doing business around a hospital
 Police Captain Cooney was of the same opinion, and he has promised Dr. Fisher that the spooners would be kept away in the future.
