According to senatorial vaage tne
recommendation of a district attorney
lies between the senators without regard
to tne desires or tne congressmen or

that Bourne considered himself opposed

apiy snarea by Kooseveit.

Fulton and Kills are also interested
in securing land office bualnesa for
Bennett which haa been barred from

like incidents have been widening the
breach between the two aenatora, thus
making it improbable that Fulton will
submit meekly to the very decided snub

were known the reason for their un
ceremonious removal would probably be
- that their usefulness waa destroyed be
cause of some mental worry, bodily
ailment or general indisposition. These
. things, as we all know, are the most
fruitful causes of failure in all walks
; of life. The battle of Waterloo was
' lost 'because of a headsche. In this
quick age our minds must be clear,
rapid, active, and free from outside

OF OKLAHOMA PARTY:
(Catted rises Leases' Wire.)
Guthrie, Okla., Jan. 8. The Republi
can members of legislature In Joint cau
cus last night unanimously adopted a
resolution In favor of the nomination of
William H. Taft for president
The oaucua asked the state committee
to declare for an instructed. Taft dele

This will probably be the most re- ,
markable victory Taft has gained so far
in his campaign. It waa supposed that
he would have found few friends among
the legislators of tha new state because
of his speech last fall attacking the con
stitution framed at Guthrie.
