It is understood that in view of the fact that the interior department has decided to oppose Simon Michelet’s re- appointment, Senator Clapp will join Steenerson in recom- mending Bennett’s appointment. There is no friction between Sen- ator Nelson and Mr, Steenerson, Having Bennett in mind for the place, Steenerson was careful to ascertain the sentiment of Sena- tor Leupp regarding Michelet, and with the commissjomer op- posed, he decided to press his man for the place.
