thought the head Of great executive
department should have little horse
sense; it would not impair his useful

helpful in mining decisions.
In turn the secretary intimated to
the superheated senator that he was
weary of scolding and denunciation.
He conveyed the impression that the
senator might find number of suit

Senator and Cabinet Minister in a Word Duel

A STORMY verbal encounter be-
IA tween a cabinet minister and
senator of the United States furnished
a morsel of gossip here the other day
First reports from the field of carnage
were that the cabinet minister bodily
threw the senator out Of his otf1ce.
This was later modified to a duel OF
hot words.
Senator Ashurst of Arizona thinks
the mining laws are something afro.
cious, even when properly enforced
When decisions are rendered under
this act he can find no expressions to
cope with the situation. One of these
obnoxious opinions was handed down
and Mr. Ashurst cleared his decks
for action and sailed down to the In
terror department. This was not his
first set-to with Secretary Fisher and
he did not quote poetry or tender a
holiday greeting.
It is admitted on both sides that
Senator Ashurst was polite though
angry. The secretary was suffering
from an ingrowing crouch. Neither
used his Sunday voice.
The senator told the secretary that
in his humble Judgment the decision
rendered against his constituent was
the most unjust, unsalted, unripe and
swaybacked distortion Of law and com
mon sense into which he had ever
bumped.
The secretary informed the senator
that the opinion was twenty karat
