COMING APP AREN'T


Washington, d. G. Feb. 25-Signs
of resuscitation ON the part Of the
Republican party are now clearly Wis
ible, Republicans. in Congress who
did, not, work, harmoniously in the
last campaign are. getting together.
The breach. between the factions is
closing, and there is promise of a
reunited party by next fall. Thsi is
not a forecast, but statement OF
a condition which Dis rapidly becoming
apparent The statements issued re-
Gently by Senator Root of New York,
and Senator Crane of Massachusetts
as suggested by Hadley, Borah, Gum
ms and other progressives, favoring
the calling of a national convention
later in the year, at. which certain
important causes OF past dissension
were to be considered and remedied,
lis the latest evidence of the devel-
opment OF the harmony movement.
Only four Senators scoffed at the
harmony plan, namely: Dixon, Mon
tana; Bristow, Kansas; Clapp, Min
nesota; and Poindexter, Washington
Dixon is chairman OF the Progress
sive national committee, but ceases
to be a senator ON March 4th. But
such progressive Republicans. as
Borah, LaFolette, Kenyon, and 9th
ers indorse the movement.
Senator Borah was especially pleas
ed. with the developments~of the har-
mony movement, and said that his
State would continue to stay HlepMbll
can. Borah favored the nomination
of Col. Roosevelt at Chicago, but re,
fused to follow him in his bolt.
For week. or ten days. now. the
Republicans, conservatives. and rad
icals, have been. working &. together. in
the Senate in most astonishing
state ofsgOod. nature and good will
The new steering committee of. the
Senate consists Of Senators Root
Smootl and Oliver, conservatives, and
Cummins and. LaFollette, radicals,
and these men have been. getting
along in. entire harmony The pro-
gram they adopted for the remainder
Of the session contained four progres'
sive measures, which LaFollette. has
been urging and, one Of, which CraW-
ford, Of North Dakota, another, radi-
cal, is the author. One. Of these
measures provides. for the. physical
valuation of railroads. which the, in
terstatel commerce. committee, has
fayorably. reported, and, which LaFol
lette has been advocating for many
years..
1t is, not the, purpose OF the men
who are working. for harmony to be
hasty. They expect to hear. from
the country and measure the sentl'

SPEAKS, HIGHLY. OF
ADDISON T.. SMITH.

Washington, d. c., Feb. 25-Con.
gresham French, i'm his memorial
address in the House of Represen-
tatives last Sunday, on the Life and
services of the late Senator Hey
burn, incorporated in his remarks
the following tribute from Congress
man-elect Smith, who was probably
more closely associated with Senator
Hepburn and knew him better than
any one else in Idaho. Mr.. Smith
enjoyed the late Senators confidence
and esteem in a marked degree:
mo man in public Life in recent
years has been so misunderstood and
misrepresented. He never received
proper credit for the splendid work
he has done fer the State and nation,
as he was always adverse to ex-
plotting his accomplishments through
the newspapers. The consciousness
of duty we'll performed was his re-
ward for his arduous labors. Those
who were not acquainted with him,
and many of those who only saw him
occasionally were of the opinion that
he was of austere and imperious dis
position. This was a natural assump-
ton because Of his, aggressiYepess, in
debate or when, contending, for his
views on public. questions. but. to
those who knew him best he appear
ed in his true. character. He. was
generous, to a, fault, kind, and con
siderate, true to, his friends and 10y
al and DEVOTED to his. family. In fact
|, never knew a, man who, was more
interested. in his relatives and the
friends, of. his early life, and those
who endured with him, the. hardships
incident to pioneer days in the Occur
d'Alenes- He was a. most congenial
and lovable companion, and while he
was. intensely devoted to his, work
he always found, time to, cultivate
the amenities, of, life. The, Senator
was most devoted, to his, state and
to what he believed. to be for, the
best interest, Of the, people
