OREOOXIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Nov. 9. Cabinet building will
be In order from now until March 4.
when the new Administration cornea
into power, and the new President will
announce his own selections. This is
always the case when there Is to be
a change of Administration, and no
President In recent years has ever
lacked for suggestions as to the proper
men to place at the head of the various
Government departments. For between
politicians and the newspapers, sugges
tions are always made in profusion and
innumerable Cabinets are built up by
all save the one man entrusted with
that power. The selection of a Cabinet
by the President-elect always comes
after the volunteera have completed
their work.
There Is one Cabinet appointment to
be made on March 4 In which the West
is vitally Interested the selection of
a Secretary of the Interior. The Demo
cratic National platform contained a
plank that seemed to foreshadow a
practical administration of public land
affairs, but It remains to be seen
whether that party pledge was made
merely as a vote-getter or Is a plank
to be followed out by the new Adminis
tration. Htm Committee la Flacfcetla.
It is evident that a Secretary of the
Interior appointed to carry out the con
servation and public land planka of the
Democratic platform would come at
once into conflict with the Democratic
members of the public lands committee
of the House of Representatives, for
the Democratic legislative record on
conservation, made by the present
House of Representatives, is not In ac
cord with the Baltimore platform, but
rather is diametrically opposed to that
platform. For the public lands com
mittee of the House, as has been dem
onstrated many times in the past two
years, believes in the Pinchot brand of
conservation, and has been particularly
hostile to most of the legislation by the
West- It Is true the committee re
ported the three-year homestead bill,
but It did so only after great pressure
was brought to bear by Speaker Clark
and by several Democratic Senators,
for the committee left to Itself would
have adopted the Fisher Idea and re
ported out a substitute bill requiring
five years' cultivation Instead of three.
There have been many measures be
fore the present public lands committee
of benefit to the West, especially bills
intended to make available the public
resources now tied up by withdrawals.
None of these bills has ever been al
lowed to com out of committee, and
whenever an effort was made to get
them out such conservationists as Gtf
ford Pinchot. Secretary Fisher and
Louis Brandels have been called upon
for an expression of opinion, and the
view of those men, against the West
ern view, has been accepted and acted
upon.
South Has Swamp Laad Plaaa.
So it is said that if Mr. Wilson ap
points as Secretary of the Interior a
man who believes in the conservation
plank of the Baltimore platform, that
man will find a hostile Congress on his
hands, unless the strength of the Ad
ministration is brought to bear on Con
gress to get out some practical and
sensible land legislation that will aid
and not longer retard the development
of the West. With an Administration
favoring practical land legislation. Con
gress may change its tune, but many
of the leading Democrats have taken
a Arm stand against the West, and they
would have to change their position
completely to uphold the Baltimore
platform.
In this connection, it is important
to remember that the South dominates
the Democracy, and the South Is not
deeply interested in the reclamation of
arid lands, but Is interested directly in
the reclamation of swamp lands. There
is a 'probability that the Democratic
majority in Congress, at last having
the power, may make some provision
for reclaiming the swamp lands of the
South, and the suggestion has been
made that a part of the reclamation
funds may be diverted for this purpose,
inasmuch as there is no public land
fund In the South, and there would be
great opposition to making a direct
appropriation from the Treasury for
this purpose.
It Is needless to say that any diver
sion of money from the reclamation
fund to a swamp-land reclamation fund
will retard greatly the completion of
Government projects in the West, and
will shut off for years to come the
adoption of any new arid land reclama
tion projects. The temptation to use
the reclamation fund for swamp land
reclamation will be great and the de
mand will be strong. Much will de
pend upotl the attitude of the Admin
istration, or rather, the attitude of the
President and his Secretary of the In
terior. If a Western man is made Sec
retary of the Interior, any diversion
of money from the reclamation fund
will be resisted, but If a Southerner Is
named, the West may as well shut its
eyes and prepare for a long period of
almost stagnation.
The reclamation work has proceeded
slowly with the funds available; with
half the fund diverted to the South. It
will be almost impossible to note any
progress.

The nlans which the President has
discussed with Republican leaders for
keeping alive the principles of the re
publican parly contemplate the organi
zation of business men's clubs and agi
tation In favor ot-constitutional gov
ernment.
"The party of the constitution" Is the
motto that the President and his fol
lowers urge upon the Republican party
in Its fight for life.
The President called several Senators
and members of Congress who were in
town to the White House this afternoon
and talked with them in regard to the
ultuatlon. One of these visitors was
Senator Burton, of Ohio. After his talk
with the President Senator Burton
said: "We have sustained a crushing
defeat, but the Republican party will
revive. The result or the election was
discounted in advance and the blow Is
not as severe, on that .account. The
Ronnhiiran nartv must maintain Its
organization and its members must not
lose hope. We were beaten Before in
1892, but immediately thereafter there
a'aorles of Republican victories
almost unprecedented. With some pol
iticians it Is a superstition that an
overwhelming victory Is sure to be
followed by a sharp and early reac
tion. This was the case after the
iArtlnn of Franklin Pierce in 1S52. It
was repeated In a measure after the
overwhelming victory of Grant in 1872.
It was also true after the notable vie
tory of Cleveland in 1892."
Third Party OH-M11 Party.
msr RAnublican callers at the
White House were Senator Sutherland,
of Utah: Representative Payne, of New
York, and ex-Representative Olcott, ot
New York. Senator Sutherland saia:
"The third party is founded wholly
upon the personality of one man. and
has no future of its own except through
that man.
"The Republican party Is founded
upon principles and the adherence to
x. onnutltutlon and laws, and it will
live long after its leaders are dead and
gone."
Charles D. Hilles, chairman of the
Republican National committee, prob
ably will return to his former position
as secretary to the President within
the next few weeks. Carmi A. Thomp
son, who has been the President's sec
retary since Mr. Hilles took charge of
the President's political interests, will
probably be transferred to some other
post. He may be appointed a member
of the Industrial Commission, which
was created at the last session of Con

Jail Inmates Rebel.
CHICAGO, Nov. 9. Attorneys for
Jack Johnson, who Is held in the
county Jail In default of a 130,000 bond
on a charge of violating the Mann act,
will go to the United States Supreme
Court in an effort to obtain the release
of the negro champion, they announced
tonight. The contention will be set up
that the Mann act is unconstitutional
In that it deals with a crime over
which states alone have jurisdiction.
Meantime Tohnso"n probably will re
main in his cell. Late today he was
placed In a cage with James Brown, a
negro cook charged with murder. The
fighter's incarceration? followed his vain
effort to obtain place In the hospital
ward by feigning illness. A physician
examined Johnson and thus diagnosed
his case:
"Cold Feet," Sy Doctor.
"His only trouble is cold feet."
Immediately Johnson was ordered to
vacate a comfortable chair in which he
had been lolling. Handcuffs were placed
on his wrists and he was transferred
to a cell in the negro section of the
Jail.
Because Johnson was not placed in
the negro section of cells, white prison
ers at the county jail today caused diSi
order that only the steel bars prevented
from becoming mutiny and forced the
jailer to remove the pugilist from the
white department.
Johnson was much annoyed by the
epithets shouted at him by other mem
bers of his race, In tne segregated sec
tion of cells.
Cell Mate Alleged Murderer. .
Johnson then was placed in the same
cell with James Brown, a negro steam
ship cook, accused of stabbing a man
to death.
United States District Judge Carpen
ter refused to issue a habeas corpus
writ sued for by Johnson's attorneys.-
Johnson's first night in the Cook
County Jail netted him six hours' sleep.
A request by the pugilist that he be
moved to a larger cell was denied.
Judge Landls left the city today to
be gone -until Monday, which practi
cally removed Johnson's chances of
gaining his freedom until next week.
It was declared by the Federal Dis
trict Attorney's office that only the
provision of a bond satisfactory to
Judge Landis Monday or an appeal di
rectly to the United States Supreme
Court could effect Johnson's release
until the courts passed on his case.
