He left Washington this morning with a severe cold, which threatened bron- chial complications. His physiclan, Dr. G. N J. Richardson of Wasnington, accom- panied him. President Taft returned to Washington today. Situation in Congress. The president said: “You have been doubtless advised by your newspapers that there is certain legis tion pending in congress in which the ad- ministration has & very intense interest, growing out of the fact that it was promised by the platform of the republican party and has been recommendéd by the president to congress and I feel as if it might not be without some use for mé& to say what the condition of the legislation is and what the prospect is of its passage.

Touching upon the question of the pro- posed Injtiative and referendum plank for the democratic forces of the state, Mr. Webster declared the liquor question was not a political one. “The liquor subject is properly of no con- cern to the president, the party, to con- gress nor to state government.

There is some difference, too, between the houses as to the provisions made in respect to the public lands and the payments of the debts of the territories. “There is a hesitation on the part of the republicans in the senate to pass a bill which is so likely to add four democrats to the senate, or it not democrats, republi- cans of that radical type that are entirely out of sympathy with the more conserva- tive notions of the east. Still there s a promise in the platform, distinct and clear, that this bill shall pass ‘and I am very anxious (hat the party shall meet its ob- ligations in this regard, and enact the nec- essary legislation. 1 do not shail be disappointed. Spirit of Victory. Victor Rowewater, in a brief address mentioned the successes of republican ad- i ministrations in Omaha. He jocularly in- fortaed the guest of honor that though the latter had seen a democratic mayor in office on his previous visit here twenty vears ago and was seated near another one on this occasion, the intervening twenty years had been terms of republican officials, The speaker then remarked that the spirit of victory was present in the | iranks of the state urganization and that democratic votes would be needed at the next election, | No Rifts in Ranks Charles 0. Whedon outlined an argument for parly solidarity, contending that what- ever differences of opinfon might be enter- tained by individuals, the tarift law and other undertakings of the party were es- | sertially right. “The party should work | hand in hand,” he declared. “There should | be no rifts In the ranks at times of action. |1 belleve in the right to criticize. 1 also believe with all its apparent grounds for | scrutiny and criticism the tariff law is the best that could be evolved.

It ratifies all the withdrawals of public land heretofore made, amounting to up- wards of 60,000 acres, and it specifically em- powers the president to make other with- drawals when he desires to ask congres to pass laws varying the existing laws for the disposition in class of public lands. no from the very grave doubt whether the reservation of 60,000,000 acres if subjected to the test of legality in the courts could stand it “It I8 a very grave question whether the tions thus, merely to avold the disposition of the land under existing congressional enactment, and there are those in the west, who, taking the advantage of doubt in the question and assum.ng that the withdrawals are without authority, are standing out claims with a view of testing their validity in the courts. “8hould the courts hold that the execu- tive authority has been abused in this re- gard, then It will leave the public domain in a mess.
