The Taitana Teller takes ex cep- j
lions to the roasts of Senator Nel-]
soil that are going the rounds of
some of the papers, for his connec- j
tion with the Wickersham case. It
states that the Tatiana Miner As-i
sociation wired Nelson to oppose j
the confirmation of the judge,]
stating that they were afraid of]
Him and as t he senator is only do-j
ing as requested to do by one of
the largest organizations in the
Tnnana country, he should not.
be subjected to such severe criti-i
eism. The Teller says: “Senator
kelson, it lias been suggested to'
the people, is to he considered a ]
dirty blackguard because he lias
done what we requested him to do.
Judge Wickersham is to he our
hero because 1 c ’.van!- to he our;
judge when we, the people, do not
want him to be anything of the;
kind.”
From the press dispatches it ftp-]
pears that Dejtew of New \<>rk.
Spooner of Wisconsin, .Dillingham
of Vermont, Kittredge of South
Dakota, Pettus of Alabama and
Blackburn of Kentucky were the
senators who voted for confirma
tion of Judge Wickershain in the
Committee on judiciary. Those op
jiosing him are not mentioned, but
it is probable that the four were;
Velson, Patterson, Foraker and]
tin ox. This would leave Clark of
Vyoming, Culberson of Texas and
dacon of Georgia not voting.
At last the fight over Wicker-'
sham’s appointment is drawing to
a close, and should be definitely
settled soon. The people of this ,
district will he very glad to see it
settled,, for the absence of a court
this winter lias worked a great
hardship on many citizens and in
some cases has caused considerable;
pecuniary loss. If the Senate fol
lows the recommendations of the
jiuliciary committee it remains to
be seen if the judge will do as has
been prophesied by his friends-:e-j
sign after being confirmed, rather!
than sit on the bench in a district ^
T here so many jicoj/.c have been
actively working against him.
House Favors Direct Vote
Washington—A resolution pro-;
-.Mdi’.tg fi>r the election of senators;
b* vote of the people has
rl^'ii favorably acted- upon by the
House committee on election of
president, vice-president and rep
resentatives in Congress: The res
olution, Which was introduced by I
Mr. Morris of Nebraska, makes the
term of members of the House four)
years instead of two. Hot!) propo
sitions are to be accomplished by
amendments to the constitution.
Relentless In Guarding Wires.
Washington—Action is contem
plated hy the war department!
which will make more stringent |
the old regulation regarding inter j
fi‘re nee with military telegraph }
Hues.
On account of the carelessness of
travelers on Alaska trails in fel
ling trfcesinsuch way as to break
down telegraph wires, it is pro
posed to prosecute in eases of mere
carelessness in the same as in in- I
stances of malicious destruction of
property.
