WASHINGTON, D. C, April 19.
An Insurgent movo similar to tho
light ngnlnst Sppnlter Cannon In tho
houso ot reproaentntlvoa was launch
ed horo with tho opening scs
Blon of tho Daughters ot tho American
Revolution. Tho "insurgents" de
clare that President General Mrs. M.
T. Scott, named all tho committees
from personal followers. They de
mand that tho rules In connection
with tho appointment ot tho various
committees bo changed In such man
ner as to curtail the power ot tho
chair.
Mrs. Scott docs not seem at all
alarmed by tho uprising. She placid
ly declared that there will not ho
any trouble with tho Insurgents. Sho
eeld that she expects that the session
will bo harmonious, and tho "Insurg
Ing Insurgents" will quiet down after
things aro In full swine.
"I assure you," sho said while talk
ing to a number ot newspaper men,
"that this session will bo harmoni
ous." Despite the reassuring romarks ot
Mrs. Scott, Indications are that there
will be much friction developed as
the session progresses.
The political opponents of tho chair
are bitter In their denunciation of
what they term hor "favoritism,"
and It is believed that a determined
effort to change the rules in regard
to commltteo appointments will be
made. ,
President Dogdcs.
President Taft has dodged an
other attempt to raise the woman's
suffrage question.
men Mrs. M. T. Scott, president
of tho Daughters of the American
Revolution, which has opened its ses
sion here, Introduced tho president
to the assemblage she said:
"It has been rumored that the pres
ident does net favor woman suffrage.
If this Is true he Is not consulting his
own interests, for millions ot Amer
ican women admire him and would
Toto for him If they had tho opportu
nity." TBe president hesitated a moment,
and plainly showed by his manner
that ho had expected no references
to be made to the late Incident before
the suffrage convention when he was
hissed for expressing his opinions as
to votes for women. He then replied:
"I confess when I came to this hall
that I did not expect to have present
ed to mo matter for controversy. I
thought what brought us together
was something which wo had all
agreed upon. I am going to contin
ue this assumption without the power
er or the place of women."
No -further attempts to bring up
the subject, which was plainly dis
tasteful to Taft, was tried.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.. April 1'.
"It Jack Johnson wants to pick
i Jack Welsh for his retoreo that's his
nrlvlleKO." said Tex Rlckard In
discussing tho report trom Chicago
that Johnson would Insist on Welsh.
"I can't see why Jettrle3 should
object to iho selection ot Welsh, but
Jeffries may navo another man In
mind. If tho fighters fall out over
the choosing of a referee that will not
causo us any lost sleep.
"The articles say that If they fall
to agree on a referee within CO days
of tho fight, tho promoters shall mako
tho selection."
COOK
DEFENDER
Admiral Says He Still Behoves That
Doctor Reached the Pole Says
Peary Is Cook's Best Witness
Believes in Both.
Rlckard said that "genial Jack"
would arrlvo hero from Chicago Wed
nesday morning and that he had a
wire from Gleason that all arrange
ments had been completed In the east.
Glcanson Is not bringing Mlstah
Johnson with him, but Rlckard Is
certain that "Lll Artha" will bo on
his way to his training station at Seal
Rock houso soon.
"Johnson was due to leave Chicago
lnst Saturday." said RIskard. "but
I supposo something has held him
back. We have no fear about his
physical condition, but we would like
to see htm out hero, where wo can
hold him down."
WASHINGTON, D. C, April 10.
Admiral Wintleld Scott Schley be
lieves that Dr. Frederick A. Cook
reached tho ncrth pole. After care
ful and painstaking study Admiral
Schley declares he has found no rea
son for believing that Cook did not
reach the polo and tho evidence fur
nished by Peary In support of his
clatm substantiated the claims of
LCook.
"I believe that both Cool: ana
Peary reached tho pole, "declared
Schley. "I think Peary Is tho best
witness In Cook's behalf. I cannot
see how any partial man can com-
paro tho accounts ot the two explor
ers without concluding ono might
have wrltton because of tho other,
and that both men saw what they des
cribed. There Is glory and money
enough for both. They trouble with
Cook Is precisely tho samo that has
confronted many before him. The
first explorer Is alwnys discredited."

of His Literary Composition.
STILLWATER, Minn., April 19.
The pates of the state penitentiary
swung wide Monday and John Car
ter, prison poet and musician,
walked forth a free man after hav
ing spent fivo years behind the bars
After considering his case, the stute
pardon board decided on Saturday to
pardon Carter because of the merit
of his writings. It was his poems
in literary periodicals like the Cen
tnry Magazine that attracted the at
tention of literary men to his case
and brought influence to bear to se
euro his pardon.
Carter, an Englishman, whose real
name ho has declined to give, was
ejected from a freight train at Karl
stad, Minn., while beating bis way to
Minneapolis. Desperate from hun
ger, he broke into the railroad sta
tion and stole $24 belonging to the
telegraph operator. He was tried
and sentenced to ten years at Still

PASTOR LEAVES MINISTRY
TO ENTER FIELD OF POLITICS
SPOKANE, Wash., April 19. "I
have come to feel that while the min
istry continues to preach and ideal
ize, politics continue to live and to
do and that tho gap between them
continues to widen," said Charles H.
Braden, formerly pastor of the Grace
Baptist church of Spokane, who
recently resigned the ministry to
enter politics national politics, if
possible.
"Politics, to some extent, expresses
life as it is really lived," added Bra
den. "Tho preachers' world of ideals
is coming to be regarded by the prac
tical world as an embodiment of fan
ciful theories, excellent to be written
about, sung about, theorized about,
and, to some extent, to be cried
about, but not to bo carried into pol
itics and government and made uni
versally operative.
"I have no word of criticism tn
pass upon the calling of the minis
try. It is the higbeal among men."
