The Insurgents were excited today
over tho' announcement that Senator

if the senator remained as a presiden

President In Seclusion.
Tho tho president Is In strict seclu
slon to complete his message, many
members of congress ore dolly attempt
ing to see him to point out the peril to
tho party that would result from any
recognition of tho regulars as the party
leaders. They are anxious over the
proposed reorganization and declare
that upon It depends the fate of the
party In 1913, as the Democrats are al
ready making preparations for that
battle.
Most of the congressmen assert that
steps should be taken at once to line up
the party for tho battle of 1912. They
are going to urge the president to have
a strong man placed at the helm as
chairman of tho Republican national
campaign committee. The Insurgents
want an Insurgent chairman, asserting
that only by such an appointment can
tho party be reunited, while the regu
lars are Insisting on one of their own
kind for the appointment arguing that
defeat In the last campaign was due
to the Insurgents.

It will take a stronger minded body
of men than the governors of tho

to Frankfort Wednesday night to assist
Governor Joseph M. Brown In securing
the convention for Atlanta next year.
The personnel of the committee has not

Faxon soys that It will bo one' of th*
strongest that has ever gone out of
Atlanta.
A telegram ho* been sent to Gov

arrives In Frankfort Thursday morning
he will have don* as much personal
canvassing as possible among the other
state executives In order to make the
ay smooth for the committee. This Is
probably the lost convention which At-

When E. Lee Worsham, elate ento

Issued a lengthy card In which he re
plied .to the card of Mr. Worsham.
In part, Mr. Hastings said:
"As chairman of tho committee on

of Commerce, I regret tho controversy
brought on, presumably by Entomolo
gist Worsham, as ha answers the cord
of the Chamber of Commerce published
In Sunday's papers. Mr. Worsham al
lude* to ‘plans’ adopted or suggested
In 'secret' conferences.
"In the first place there were no ee.
cret conferences held; In tha second
place no specific plans for fighting the
boll weevil were suggested or adopted.
“Mr. Worsham Is correct In stating
that the controversy It trivial. The
Chamber of Commerce did not start It,
but It does not fee! Justified In letting
go unanswered, statements absolutely
Incorrect and which had not the least
foundation of fact.”

suit in the District supreme court for a
writ of mandamus to compel Secretory
Bollinger, of the Interior department,
to issue to him s patent for lands In
tho Glenwood Springs district, Colo

made applications to congress and of
the remaining 17 all but two have ex
pressed their sympathy with the move
ment by directly nominating senators
under tho direct primaries law. Tho
only two states that have not expressed
themselves In nny form on tho subject
or* Delaware and West Virginia. This
reform can not bo affected In any other
way than by a constitutional amend
ment
hold down the house to Its present stse.
It would be necessary to Increase the
ratio. The unit of population would
have to be made 223,000 and this would
result In loss of representative* to prob
ably a dozen states. Including Maine,
Vermont, Iowa, Indiana. Nebraska and
Kansas, because the Increase In popu
lation In those states would be too
small to stand tbs Increased unit.
The following states would gain con-
sreaiiucn: New York. Mnsaachuaetta,
Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Il
linois. Michigan, Texas and some of the
coast states.
The etatee that are threatened with a
loss will undoubtedly stand together to
oppose the proposed increase in the
unit So all In alt tha apportionment
