e { announced % ¥ course, but in each % THE BEE OMAHA, MONDAY SHOOT COMING TO FRONT After Desperate Fight Utah Semator is on Selid Ground. mn-morooon‘maom Sonth Dakots Semmtor Seek he | Sealp of Amditor Perwon, Lons n Fixtare in e Interfor Department. / From a Staff Correspondent.) IYABHINGTON, April %.—(Special.)—Or- dinarfly when a new man is sworn in as A new member of the United States senate it is expected thet he will not be con- 0ué for at least two years and some- 'times four years must elapse before it is (#xpected that he will make his appear- ance as a debater. Of course, there are {exceptions to this general rule, Joe Cannon, for instance, should be chosen 10 succeed Mr. Hopkins as a senator from the state of liilnois everybody would ex- {pect (o hear from him in short order. And a man like Secretary Root can arise in his seat to debats Any quetion, ewpe- clally u question involving the foreign palicy of the United Bt without ex- ©iting comment. But ‘the ordinary citizen who s chosen by the legislature of his state to oocupy & seat in the senate Is expected to. remain quiescent for at least two yests—and he will: suit. the powers that be better if he does not say a word for four years—because It {s an unwritten law that new men should, like children, be. seen and not heard. When Reed Bmoot first took hiy seat as A senator fgom Utah six years ago he ob- #erved the rule rigldly, but still he was in the public eye most emphatically from the time that he took the oath of office. He was attacked oh account of his re- liglon and his right to continue to' repre- sent the state of Vtah was denied from the outset. This was because of the fact that Mr, Smoot s an Apostle of the Mor- mon church, 1t used to be sald that when a preacher assigned to a Methodist church to his congregation that he would deliver -hls first sermon in an- lagonism to the brewing interest he was alivised not to do o because there were meveral brewers who were shining lights in the congregation, He welected various other “industries” as subjects for his dis- Instance the deacon, whom he consulted, pointed out to him the reasons why this should not be done. In desperation the minister asked, “‘Whom can I attack?’ “Oh, jump on the Mor- mons,” was his reply, “they have no friends here,” and there were mighty few friends of the Mormon church to stand by Reed Smoot He was subjected ‘to 'a most rigid in- quisition and nearly four years expired be- fore his right to occupy a seat to which everybody admitted he had been legally elected was confirmed by a majority of the senate. Always a Hard Worker. During all that time Mr. Smoot had remained passive so far as active par- ticipation In the work of the senate was eoncerned, but everyone noticed that not- Withslanding the strain under which he labored for all those years that he at- tended to his committee work assiduously. No more persistent worker was found in any committee of the senate than Reed Smoot. He attended every meeting of overy committee to which he had been assigned, religlously, and in those sub- bodles of the senate, which, had' active contro! of the legislation in which his state was most deeply interested, he dem- onstrated that he was, to use a_slang expression, “onto his job." 1t was not suprprising, therefors, when the new committes on finance chosen, after Mr. 8moot had by the legislature of Utah for a second term, th he should be assigned to a place on the important committee on fl- nance, In the old days a finance committee of the senate was composed of “grave and reve erend selgniors” who had long years of seryice behind them. and western men par- ticularly had very. little chance of obtain- ing & seat in that particular committee room. But a new regime has dawned and the west Is coming to the front as a power atlon. Western men are now on the steering committee and western men have something to say to the forma tlon ‘of sl the committées, so it Is not at all surprising Jhat four western men are now on the committee on finance, nor is it surprising to those who know something of the personnel of the sepate that Reed Smoot of Utah s onw of the four. Those that wis been re-elected | who have watched the career of the sen- | ator from Utah are by no means surprised At the.metivity which he has displayed as & member of the committce on finance. But others are, There has not been a meet- ing of the committee since it was organ- Jzed which Mr. Smoot has not attended. He % shown a remarkable knowledge of riff affairs und has demonstrated clearly at the business sense which .has made im successful in Utah is avatlable in the mittee on fikance. Withal, he has ex- ssed a boldness of views which not only ounds to the interest of his state, but akes for much In tho common interests of the country at Jarge. There Is scarcely sehedule of the terriff bill which he has | ot studied carefully and consclentlousy e divect intercsts of his people are in (hose schedules which affect hides, wool, lead and sugar, and yet he hi de- oted just as much study to silk and hemicals manufactures of cotton and all 'the others as he has to those which bear dipectly upon the Industries of his own atat It s not to be wopdered at, therefore. that Ssnator Reed Smoot of Utah has been ia the pubile eye during the last few weeks 1o an egually great extent as any other member of the finance committee, mot excepting Senater Aldrich. He has been spoken of With more or less commen- 4ation by practically every one of the met- ropolitan dailies, and his activity has been noticed, In fael, throughout the country fenator Smoof would not be regarded as n orator, but he Is a busine: man of sard, common sense. whose senatorlal ca- seer will, in all probability, not reach its 1t Uncle | | discoverea that if there is one climax until he has placed his name indel- foly upon the statutes of the country Senntors After Person's Sealp. Congress first provided an “suditor of the treasury for the interior departmeut” fifty years ago. The office bas been held for half that time by two men.. The present {ncumbent has served for twelve years and he has made a record for him-« self unpqualled by that of any other audifor. But he is slated to go Heo is Robert H. Person and he wus born in the litile hamlet In Erle county, New York, locaily known as ‘“Wales Holler.” It is today one of the most dllapidated “hollers” in the entire state of New York. Probably if “Rob" Person had remained there he would be dfla- pidated too. But when he was about severi years of age his mother purchased for him a pair of copper-toed cow hide boots with red tops. On these tops was embossed this verse: It is not wealth, Nor rank, nor state It's it up and git That makes boys great When about sixteen, Person began his career as @ newspaper man. He was the assistant correspondent at “Wales Iiol- ler” for the Brle County Advert'ser. From an old file of that Journal are culled a few “pleces” which Bob wrote or assisted in writing: “Ed Leigh put a new board floor of his porch last week. “Peleg Havens drove to Buffalo with aiload of hand threshed rye ‘straw n Friday.” *“John Mindle killed his hogs last week. The old white Chester sow dressed 562 pounds.” “Road. Commissioner Keem plugged up the hole in the roof of the covered bridge with about fifty shingles on Tuesday.” “There will be a revival at the Free Methodlst church next Sabbath.” These were samples of his work. They don’t amount to much thirty odd years later, but (hey show that R. Person was an observing youth He decided to “git up and git” and he struck out for Dakota when, in a few years he had made a name for him- self as a journalist. He owned and pub- lished one of the most influential new papers in the territory, When = the territory was divided and two ctates formed he became a factor in polklic Twelve years ago he was appointed auditor of the Treasury for the Interior. About all the auditing he ever did was the payroll of the printer and the devil employed in the office. But that motto on the old red-top boots stuck by bim. He continued to “git up and git” He got up early In the morn- Ing -and he carefully examined every paper which was brought to him for signature. Inside of six months he knew every detall of his office. He knew the capacity and ability of every one of the army of clerks under him He has always been a rigld discipiinarian. He cut red tape right and left, lopped off useless repetitions and insisted upon the prompt dispatch of business in every di- vision of his office. He Introduced = tem where before haphazard governed and as a result his office is the model for all the others. About the last official letter written by Secretary Garfield was addressed to Person and was a poem of praise for the manner in’ which the auditor had stralghtened out the existing tangles in the pathway of business betwecen the In- terior and the Treasury department. But Person had sided with the Kittredge forces in the Kittredge-Gamble senatorial fight. Now Gamble and his colicague, Crawford, want the alp ¢f the native of Wales Holler. They are senators from| South Dakota. Martin and Burke, who are the repre- sentatives from the state in the lower house! are his warm friends, and Becretary MacVelgh Is satistied to keep him in“office. As to Person, he doern't care. He has made his record. He has learned a lot. He is willing to leave whenever he is asked | to do so by the secretary, and it is prob-| able that the senators will eventually suc-| ceed in calling attention once more to that| motto on those little,cld boots and that once more Robert Person will “git up and sit.” in the Aldrich Holds the Key. No one but Senator Aldrich knows what | the taritf bill will: look like when it finally| emerges from the senate, and fs sent back to the house, and he probably has only a| vague idef. That there will be many amendments 1s a foregone conclusion and| many of the schedules in the next print| will begr little resemblance to those which were orlginally reported from the ways and means committee. It was thought a week ago that the question as to a tariff on petreleum had been definitely settied beyond & doubt and that that produet would surely stay on the free list. This was supposed to be & body blow at the Standard Ol company and everyone, from Judge Landls down, is against that monopoly. But it has been concern in the world that favors free petroleum’it is that self same octopus. The Standard is sald to own or control at least 90 per cent of the Mexican ofl fields and those fields promise to become as productive as wers the Pennsylvania fields thirty years ago.

When the new board takes hold July 1 it will be up against the problem of what to do in the matter of continuing. the bullding opera- tions, what new blildings to erect and get- ting the plans ready.
