certain Statements in regard TO my

ficors and employs az the charitable
Institutions that does me a gre't in
justice, and l believe Senator Salmon

A very large majority CT the officials
and employs of these institutions are
Democrats, some of them appointed
by TIE present board, but most Of
them appointed under the former Dem
ocratc administration.
| have strictly adhered 20 the BIZ
partisan principal at all times-which
means the retention in office Of capable
officials, and when vacancies occurred
to insist that appointment be made
without regard to political affiliation
regarding only the publication of tho
person appointed.
AS soon as l can obtain a list of
the officials and employs of these In
stitutions, a true statement will be
furnished for publication.

/ Is taxing the diplomatic abilities OF the
German Ambassador and the State
Department to the utmost.
Representative Paul Rowland has
impressed upon the Rules committee
the necessity for immediate action
on his resolution ealing for an in
vestigation of the conditions which
are responsible for the increased cost
Of living. The committee was in a
receptive frame of mind and, although
no assurances were given TO Mr..
Rowland, it is known that Speaker
Cannon and his associates contem-
plate some action to determine The
cause of the present high prices
Mr.. Rowland pointed out that the IN
creased cost of living Is an evil
which affects. the entire country and
Is not a party question. He declared
that it Is the duty of a Republican
Congress to inquire into the facts
ard to alleviate the situation after
the facts have been established. He
also asserted that 1t would be seri-
GUS mistake for the party to go be-
fore the country in 1.-THE coming coon
gressional elections without having
done its utmost to reduce The OK
penses of the masses.
One OF the most indispensable men
connected with the House CT Rep
resentatives is Asher Kinds of Maine.
the Speakers parliamentary clerk. AS
soon as the House convenes' every
morning Mr. Kinds takes his place at
the Speakers desk and he never
leaves that post until tho Houso
has adjourned at night. His duty is
to prompt the Speaker whenever Mr..
Cannon is in doubt and 10 decide all
parliamentary questions which may
arise So important to the successful
transaction of business is Mr.. HinGs
considered that even though he Is a
candidate for Congress it is net like
ly that he will be able TO. leave his
post 10 make an active campaign. He
is an aspirant for the seat Of Rep
resentative Amos Allen of the First
Maine District. His opponent is Col
orel Frederick Hale, son of Senator
Hale. Mr.. Kinds friends may insist
that he return to his home some time
before the converting of the nominating
convention but they are at loss
to suggest some one to perform his
duties while he rs away as there
are but few ,pHen In the country who
would care 20 assume his response
