Yet when persons have
consumption they loathe all
fatty foods, yet fat is neces-

they cannot take plain cod

OF Roosevelt and his St. Louis
speech, Mr.. TOwne says: Neither
in matter nor in manner is il worthy
of its occasion. In respect OIL ar
gument. the speech is, with rare ex-

and assertion. In spirit, it is \
compound of scold and scullion. As
to facts, it abounds in inaccuracies,
which, If accidental, are lnexplica-
BILE as coming from 4 man who has
performed creditably in history and
biography. But the world is ac-
customed to Inconsistencies from
Mr.. Roosevelt. 1t has long looked

Already we have single men in COM
mand of railroad systems greater
than the whole mileage Of impor-
tant European countries. Half a
dozen men could get together about
a lunch table and dictate the policy
of all the roads in the United States.
The railroads of this country
employ a million men-one fifteenth
of all the voters of the Union-re.
presenting population nearly equal
to that of the State Of New York.
These men constitute a force too
formidable to be under any control
but that of the nation. We talk about
the dangers of militarism, from a
standing army of hundred thous
and men, but there is a standing
army Of a million men-the picked
men OF the country for vigor,
courage and endurance. BY the
side of such forces how petty were
the little bands Of men alarms with
which the Colonna and the Orsin
terrorized Rome in the Middle Ages
The railroads not only contro

workers IN the United States, bu
they control practically all the IN

alliance with the trusts they arr

monopoly of the Sugar Trust. They
uniformly use their power 10 build
up great combinations aud destroy
individual enterprise.
The railroad system has passed
beyond the competitive stage Of or
ganization. and therefore it ought
to belong to the public. Under
national control, with discriMina-
tons abolished and a fair field
opened To al, it would help to delay
the advance of socialism in other
directions.
Meanwhile il should ns,t be for
gotten that the only partv that can
logically oppose the general adop-
ton of State socialism in the De-
mocracy. II is the only guardian
of the competitive system. The
trusts have deprived their friends OF
every argument against socialism.
They have trampled on the pri,.-
cipie Of individual enterprise; they
have proved that the national or.
ganization of industry is practica.

REPORT OF CHARITY WORK
WHAT THE ASSOCIATED SOCIETIES
DID THE PAST QUARTER.

The regular quarterly meeting Of the
board of trustees of the Associated Char
tiles was held yesterday afternoon. Gen
eral Secretary Gutridge, in his report,
said:
The three months just closed have not
been eventfuI in big things. Order and
ways we have been extending the useful
ness of the office and advancing the IN
terests Of the constituent charities. Dur
ing the quarter only eighty-seven inves-
legations were made, but thirty-seven of
which were new. This is thirty-six per
cent better than the best previous rec

total number receiving aid during the
year from all the constituent charities.
The, figures will be ready for the an
nual report.
The department of friendly visiting is
In good condition. The four conferences
are in healthier state than they have ever
During the past two months visitors have
visited the workhouse, the a1mshouse,
the public baths, and the House of the
Good Shepherd, with profit to the visit
ors and the institutions visited. Agree
able to the order of your board, Mrs.
Parker closed her work on Saturday
evening until the first of September.
Success also attends the department
of prov!dent savings. The sales of
stamps for the quarter were $50, and the
withdrawals go. 1t is usual for the
Withdrawals in June to exceed the de-
posts The two withdrawal months each
year are June and December.
In my semi-annual report T drew at
tention to the highly creditable position
now occupied by the children in the st.
Paul schools in the estimation of all the
people of the country, as a consequence
of the lessons in thrift learned through
the St. Paul proyident fund. Since then
other evidence has been given as to the
usefulness Of the work The gentleman
who conducted the other investigation
at the request of our board OF school in
spectors prepared questions to be sub
mitted to the children of two schools
similarly situated, except that in one
the proVident fund had been in Success
full operation for over two years, while
no such work had ever been carried on
in the other. The purpose was to test
the value of the fund III teaching thrift.
The result was most satisfactory. Wise
children were about forty per cent more
numerous in the school where the fund
is at work.
Arrangements are being made to do
limited amount of fresh air work during
the next two months.
The increase in. our pledges is serving
to meet in part the increase in our ex-
penditure. Estimates show now a prob
able shortage of $3.50, but I have faith

WARM TALK OVER ROADS
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OBJECT
TO ROAD COMMITTEES
ACTION
WORK NOT LET REGULARL!
Bald Eagle Saloon Considered, and
Board Holds Conviction Must
Be Had Before Repeal
of License.

The board of county commissioners
net yesterday and the members enjoyed
themselves for a while throwing hot re-
marks at each other. The trouble all
came through a resolution introduced by
Commissioner Powers, Of tie road and
bridge committee for 81, 100 worth Of re-
pairs on certain roads and cycle paths
Commissioner Quehl objected to any ap-
preparation for a path to Lake Johanna,
on the ground that this path was seldom
used by wheelmen. This objection
aroused the ire of Commissioner Powers,
who lives in the Lake Johanna district
and he charged Commissioners Quehl and
Gray with having let the contract for the
path on Arcade street without any au-
thority. Commissioner Powers also
charged those commissioners with car
ryjng p!ds for contract work around in
their pockets and presenting them to the
board without having gone through the
auditors office. Further, these commits
sioners, after having let contract had
arbitrarily changed from one contractor
10 another, without the authority of the
board.
Commissioner Wright, the other coun-
try member, was surprised to learn that
any contract had been let for the path on
A. eade street. What authority had these
gentlemen for doing as they did? Two
members were not a majority of the
board.
Commissioner Quehl-No, but two mem
bers are a majority Of three.
Commissioner Wright said there was
no record that such a contract had been
let
Commissioners Wright and Quehl had
it out back and forth. In one Of his
statements, Commissioner Quehl intimat-
ed that if Commissioner Wright had JUS
tice melted out to him, another man
would be occupying his seat on the BOARD.
Commissioner Gray thought there We're
too many appropriations for work in the
western part of the city, while the east
was neglected.
Finally, after the board had been treat
ed to this kind of entertainment for a
short time, Commissioner Powers resOlu-
ton, as amended, was adopted. 1t calls
for an appropriation of $3.50 for work
on the following roads: Minneapolis av-
enue, Kettle River, 30 nWoOd, Center
Vile, Vadnais lake, Johanna cycle path
and Alidor avenue.
The board also passed a separate res
olution appropriating $500 for the repair
of the East Seventh street hill
A resolution was presented by Commits
SloIler overs lHdL hereafter no DIS IOE
work on county roads be approved unless
they had the sanction of the commits
sioner of the district in which the work
was done.

time explaining why his license should
