IS THEPRES|DENT'S CHIEF ADVISER

, Oliver P. Morton. who at that time
was prominent figure at Washington
and the principal rival of James G.
Blaine Young Morton made frequent
trips TO Washington and generally
took young House with him.
He realized that the government Of
the United States did not entirely
comprise the president. the senate and
congress, but that a small group OF as
tute men were in reality the power
behind the throne. Right then and
there he made up his mind that the
life OF 4 statesman was not for him.
he wanted to win a place as the
balance Of power and set with that
end in view
Manages Big Interests Well.
He graduated from Cornell and was
recalled to Texas by the death Of his
father. who left him many thousand
acres and large business interests The
prospect OF taking control of such
large and scattered group OF holdings
would have frightened the average
youth Of his age, but not so with
young House.
In a few years he mastered the de-
tails In such excellent manner that
the House estates were running them
selves and their young master was
quietly taking life easy in Austin.
In 1892, when the campaign for the
election OF governor Hogg was on and
the old Texas forces composed OF ma
chine politicians felt that Hogg need
rot be considered very seriously. the
tide Of victory was swept to the Hogg
standard with a vim that was unknown
in previous campaigns.
Helped Elect HOgE.
The force that elected HOgE was
young Mouse In his quiet diplomatic
way ne had brought all the insurgeut
leaders into camI and with them their
henchmen- House theE proceeded to
ma ke CulbersOn governor for two
terms and then United States senator.
The eyes of all Texas BEGAN TO
TnNTg ha
lie OF the nation finally looked his
way He became famous over night |
and soon outErew Texas.
The unehallenged 20 votes from |
Texas in the Baltimore convention !
were the bulk of the Wilson delegates.
His nomination was conceded to be (
a luke. but whether or not il was a
fluke thought out in advance by House I
IS now n matter for much speculation |
Certainly House appeared the balance !
of power and he welded it in the di- l
rection OF Woodrow Wilson.
Always Mysterious.
Following the election. Col. House 4
kept in touch with almost every phase |
Of the political situation, and did so 4
without getting IN the limelight- He
was recognized as a forceful power at
Washington and yet as a power that
was liable to work in mysterious ways.
No one could put their finger on
the activities Of the Texan, yet all
knew he was busy No one succeeded
n figuring out just what the man OF
mystery was doing. yet every one
knew il was something Of grave i'm
DOrtance. He was Sizing up the per-
5onal value of prospective cabinet
members He was looking over the
list OF available diplomats. and he was
II the presidents elbow whenever that
jersonaCe needed him
No one has ever doubted that he
vas part OF the machinery which adj
'ised the president what to do and
What not to do. but at the present time !
I has become more evident than ever
hat he is even more than part OF the Z
great machine of state. He is the
lower behind the president.

In his last weekly Saturday night
letter Judge Robinson, of the North
Dakota Supreme Court. touched up
his two league brothers and the two
hold-over members of the board. He
says that when he took office he pro-
mulgated a set of A. B. c. rules for
the guidance of the court and that so
far the other four have failed to take
advantage Of the wonderful oppor-
tunity and to avail themselves of his
wisdom. He also pays his respects
to one of the attorneys appearing in
the Youmans case. just previously ur
before him, as follows: "The plaintiff
tYoumans) was represented by q
lawyer that knew more about social.
ism than he did about law" If moth.
ing else, those letters are highly en-.
tertaining reading and the Tribune
has certainly pulled scoop in put.

Governor Frazier has just COM
pleted pruning down the appropria-
tions to meet the available finances
OF the state for the next two years.
One OF the first things he did was
kill the Dickinson normal appropri-
alton, allowing them to operate their
school. however. in their own armory
during the next two years. The Dick
inson people feel that they have a
kick coming. They point to the fact
that the Republican platform pledged
the normal to Dickinson just the same
as the league program to the farmers,
and that Frazier in a prediction
speech at Dickinson promised all his
efforts to realize for Dickinson the
normal which they coveted. They say,
however. that things look different to
the governor since election. and so the
normal appropriation doesn't get by
him.

The supreme court has handed
down a decision in the noted Grant
Youmans case. For weeks last sum-
E'er the NOnpartisan Leader held up
to the sympathy of the public that
outraged martyr, Grant Youmans, of
Minot At that time Youmans was
touted as the savior OF the people and
the victim of the INSCRIPTIONS gang.
Hanna was fittingly panned in the
proceedings. The case was decided by
Judge kneeshaw in favor of the de-
fendants. and against Youmans.
The plaintiff appealed. and lost in
the supreme court. After the league
court took office, Youmans tried
something the same system as our
own Geo. Lynn. He again brought
the matter to the attention of the new
court. Birdsell and Grace. two league
members, refused to hear the case.
They called in Cole, district judge at
Fargo. and elected over Judge Pollock
ny the league, and Hnnley. OF Mandan,
who was the only one OF the district
judges who refused to stand fire in
the old Robinson mix-up in Decem-
Der. These two, with Bruce and Chris
tenson. re-affirmed the old court
Robinson, however. kicked up a rue
tion in dissenting opinion. He de-
clared that the case was travesty on
justice, that every page of the nine
hundred record pages abounded with
errors. that the case was another
Dreyfus affair. and that the case
ought to be brought up still again
and that by that time perhaps the
other justices would see the error OF
their ways.
