interviewer, when he would in a few
minutes secure all the information in
possession of his visitor, but without
giving up any information himself. A
Chicago reporter once tried for half an
hour to get Mr.. Kittredge to express
an opinion on then important matter,
but finally gave up in despair.
SIS that all you want to known
asked Mr.. Kittredge, with his smooth
est smile, smile, by the way, which
ex-senator Pettigrew once referred to
as "Kittredge's Eastwood smile
when the reporter had thrown up his
hands. That question usually closed
an interview" and the interviewer
knew as much at the beginning as at
the end.
In the case of the Chicago reporter,
Mr.. Kittredge followed up the custom
airy question by asking:
What are you going to say about
me?,'
"Well," replied the reporter as he
ruefulIy gazed at the the meagre notes
in his notebook, I'm d if know. "
He had expected to secure material
enough to furnish the basis for a
column story. but had absolutely
failed to secure the slightest bit OF
information of Importance.
Memorable Campaign of 1900
Mr.. Kittredge accompanied the
special train of Senator Hanna through
the two Dakotas in 1900, during the
memorable compaign Of that year, and
one of the eastern newspaper men on
the train, aware of the interesting
contest then being waged for the
United States Senate in South Dakota,
thought he would ascertain the situa'
ton from Mr.. Kittredge. who some
thought at the time would capture the
plum. He approached Mr.. Kittredgs
with notebook in hand and started in te
secure the material for a half column
story on the South Dakota senatorial
fight
Mr.. Kittredge for some little time
invariably answered his questions with
the words eyes" mo-" or II don't
know" The newspaperman fnaiI,
realized the hopelessness Of his task

\ Tribute to Alfred b. Kittredge


The following was written by 4. w.
Caldwell, probably the best known of
newspaper men ever in South Dakota,
who was for years a leading political
spirit in the state and was known as
"Happy Cal, and who is now connected
with the Sioux City, Iowa, Journal:
There are few men in South Dakota
whose death would bring so many tears
to the eyes of men and women as the
taking off of Alfred b. Kittredge will
bring. Whatever may have been his
power in general business, or in his
profession as lawyer, or in politics,
he was still stronger in his personal
relations and in those qualities which
attract the cordial esteem and affec-
tionate regard of men. women and
children; and so it will be in the homes
of South Dakota, not only in Sioux
Falls but in many other localities, that

ment and of whatever station in life,
who have known him personally, as he
was so easy to be known: but it will be
by the fireside of so many homes in his
state, from Sioux Falls to Deadwood
and from Aberdeen to Yankton, in
which he has been so often a family
guest, that the most poignant sorrow
will be experienced.

While a member of the United
States senate he was on many import
ant committees and for his state accom-
plished many things. His first notable
achievement was that of writing the
report on the title to the property in
the Panama canal zone which the best
attorneys in the country could find no
fiaw in, and which has been read and
re-read by the diplomats of the world.

The delegates from this ward swung
the county convention against him,
and through the loss of Minnehaha he
lost at least two other counties which
would have given him majority in the
state convention, and an endorsement
by the state convention would have
resulted in his reelection. Apparently
beyond any question, if Mr.. Kittredge
had been at home during the campaign
that Sioux Falls ward would have not
been lost, and he would have triumphec
again. But he felt that his duties as
senator at Washington must not be
neglected at that particular juncture,
and he remained at his post.

w ashington Letter.

Washington, ID. g., Dec. IL.
1t begins to look as though the
law will be repealed which au-
thorized the establishment of the
Court Of Commerce, as a bill to
that effect has been introduced
in Congress.
Prior to the establishment of
this Court the Interstate Com
MERGE Commission had charge of
regulating common carriers,
such as railroads and other modes
of transportation and regulated
the business with very satisfying
results both to the shipper and to
the railroads. 1t was beginning
to appear, however, to the rail-
roads as if the Interstate COM
mission was sticking most too
close too exact justice, so they
had friends enough in Congress
to get a law through which es-
tablished the Court of Com
merce." A few months ago the
Interstate commerce commission
issued orders preventing the rail-
roads from raising passenger and
freight rates. And some of these
orders have been overruled by
the Court of Commerce which
has appellate power over the In
erstate commerce commission.
1t appears to the public that this
court of commerce is working
altogether in the interest Of the
corporations and for that reason
a large number of letters are
pouring in on Congress men from
all parts of the country, urging
the abolition of the Court of Com
meree as it appears to be work.
ing solely in the interest of the
corporations. In nearly every
state in the Union when a citizen
has suffered a loss of property
through a negligent act of a
corporation he brings suit in
court and he usually gets salts
factory damages awarded and
then Of course the corporations
appeal to the higher court and in
nine cases out of ten the higher
court sets the verdict aside.
1t is just such outrages as these
that have resulted in the popular
clamor for the power to remove
or recall judges and it is very
likely in the next few years that
nearly every state will incorpor-
ate provision to recall judges
when they show themselves the
willing tools of corporations.
What benefit is the right of trial
by juries, if the higher courts
invariably set their findings
aside.

 When rose the wind was stronger so l took a travelling alti- tude of about 500 feet.
 When l neared Tuckerton, the gasoline went dry again. l borrowed five gallons from the owner of an auto and made a good get away. It was during the fly from Tuckerton across to the outskirts of this city that had my hardest fight to keep in the air. It took me until neary 2 o'clock to make that last IF miles, but l must have made at least 50 miles. I encountered bumps and air. holes that made the going difficult. To make matters worse, my gasoline ran out again. came down, mar rowly missing disaster when pun of wind caught the plane about 100 feet from the ground. I was most thrown from my seat as the wind got under the wings again when I struck the ground. 1 felt the shock but found my machine under control and continued after taking on more gaso- line and made successful land ng here"
