SUGGESTION To ROOSEVELT.
Chicago Paper Tells Him How to Con.
dense His Coming MESSAGE


dense His Coming Message.
Already the Washington correspond
ents are writing President R~ooseveit's
message for him-albeit he is still in
possession of his voice and can com
mand the services of a typewriter.
III, however. Mr.. Roosevelt intends
to cover one-half of the ground laid
out for him by the correspondents our
advice to him is to issue his message
In serial form, says the Chicago Rec
ord-Herald. He las the pen of a ready
writer and an exhaustless fund of
IDEAS of his own to draw on. and yet
he is said to contemplate the incor-
poration of the reports = his cabinet
ofncers in his own reviews of the
state of the Union and recommended
o of those things he judges "neces-
sary and expedient" for the considera-
ton of congress.
II President Roosevelt will consult
the sound sense of the American
people he will make his message
unique in the history of modern
presidential messages by its brevity.
He can say all that is necessary to be
said at this time in a message of 5000
words, and by using the reports of the
departments as appendices in less
space.
The constitutional idea of the presi-
dents message was that 1t was for
the Information" of congress and the
people. But hat was before the daily
press had come to keep the public bet
ter Informed as to the state of the
union than 1t could be II presidential
messages were issued weekly.
The president capnot do better be-
tween now and the first week In De-
cember than to devote his spare time
of which he will not have too much
to the strenuous task of condensing
what is necessary and eliminating
what. is unnecessary to be said in his
first message to congress. He should
be familiar with the superiority in
range and accuracy of a rifle e a
blunderbuss.
Every unnecessary word in a presi-
dents message increases the oppor-
tunity for error.

SUBJECT TONIGHT
BUSINESS MEN WILL DISCUS:
RAILROAD QUESTION.
REPORTS ON MINING CONGRESS
Important Discussions Are Expected at
the Meeting This Evening
Gov. Van SAINTS Position
to Be Considered. il

At a meeting of the Business Mems
association to be held this evening, it
is expected that reports will be made
on the progress that mas been made in
securing subscriptions for the mining
congress and the question OF moving
against the consolidation of the tail
roads will come up for discussion.
Everything Is satisfactory with REF
erence to the mining congress fund
said a member of the Business Mems
association this morning. p.
1.-The amount we had to raise to guar
antee the coming of the congress has
been subscribed and the remainder of
the money necessary for .le expenses
of the meeting is forthcoming.
Only Action Necessary.
II felt all the time that it was only
necessary to get the business men OF the
city aroused to the Importance of keep
ing the pledge that had been made when
the congress was invited to come here
to insure the financial success OF the
project.
committees are now at work secur
ing the remainder of the money and
the congress is an assured thing"
The matter of fighting the consolida-
ton of the railroads in accordance with
the plan of Governor Van SAINT of Min
nesOta was made special order for
the meeting of the business men last
Monday evening, but owing to other mat
tiers which came up it was postponed
until this evening.
Agitation Is General.
Since the question was first proposed
to the association by Judge Speer, it
has been agitated to a great extent in
Montana, Minnesota and other states.
This fact makes it probable that THE
business men this evening will take deep
interest in the proposition and some in
teresting talks on the subject are lex
pected.

state Boiler inspector makes Report
on His Office.
Up to and including the year 1896 the
Office of state boiler inspector was an
average. expense of $500 a year, says the
Helena Record.
For the past five years the office has
turned in surplus of $11O0 a year.
These figures We're shown in the annual
report of State Boiler Inspector j. H.
Daley, which was filed Saturday with
the governor.
During the fiscal year 1901 it has re-
turned to the state treasury a net in
come of $1,747.90.
Mr.. Dailey's report shows that during
the II years of its existence, the office
has had an increasing revenue. In 1891
it was only $4515; in 1901 it reached
$9,179.50. The total expenses have only
increased from $6,997.44 to $7,431.eO.
In 1891 there was deficiency Of ST.
4S2.44; in 1896 that was decreased to
$293.60; the next year it disappeared and
in its place was a surplus of $76,.31. The
surplus has increased from year to year,
only excepting 1900, when 1t lost little.
This year there was $500 appropriated
for salaries and travelling expenses.
Other receipts We're: Fifty first-class,
1872 second class and 1853 third class IL
censes, 1929; of the above classes of IL
censes, 25, SO and 1O4, respectively, re-
issued, $764.50; cuts and reflections, SAB;
1888 renewals, $138S; 1888 boiler inspec-
tions, salts.
The boilers Of the state, under inspec-
ton, were found to have 1884 defects, of
which 2034 were dangerous. He con-
demned five boilers and seventeen mud
drums and examined $40 applicants for
licenses. He Travelled 1880 miles and
r,ade 7S5 visits. HA. says:
/ am exceedingly glad to report that
during the year there has not occurred
an explosion among the boilers or their
steam connections, which come under the
operation Of the boiler inspection law.
Mr.. Daley acknowledges the faithful
and efficient services of ]. D. OBrien. his
assistant. and the cordial cooperation
OF the owners and users Of steam plants
and OF the engineers in charge.

POOR REMEMBERED
COUNTY INDIGENTS TO BE PRO-
VIDED WITH XMAS DINNER.
EVERY FAMILY TO GET TURKEY
County Commissioners Take Action at
Suggestion of County Auditor
Crossman - Will Distribute
/, About $50 Turkeys.

The INDECENT poor of the county are
oil to have turkey dinner on Christ
mas, so the county commissioners have
declared.
The matter was brought before them
on Saturday by County Auditor and Su-
perintendent of the Poor Crossman,
and the order was then made.
Mr.. Crossman suggested to the COM
missioners that all of the poor people
who are aided by the county to live be
given orders for turkeys for their
Christmas dinners, and the commission
ers readily adopted and acted upon the
suggestion.
Turkeys for the Poor.
When the rich, the well-to-do and the
self-supporting people of all kinds are
drawing up to the Christmas board
laden with the viands of their own
providing, the county poor will sit down
to turkey dinners furnished at the order
Of the commissioners.
There is not much cheer of any kind
in the lives of those whose old age,
sickness and other misfortunes render
them dependent upon official charity,
and it will be a satisfaction to the public
to know that they are to be provided
with a good dinner ON Christmas day.
There are about $50 cases Of indigency
cared for by the county every month,
divided among families and individuals.
A turkey will be given to every family.
and to individuals who are alone. 1t
will take about $50 turkeys to go around.
Securing Their Orders.
This was the regular monthly poor
day, when the charges of the county
visit County Auditor Cheeseman's office
and secure their orders on merchants
for food and other necessaries.
When the customary visitors arrived
today their addresses were taken at the
office. and or Christmas they will receive
their turkeys. The receipt of the
turkeys then will prove pleasant and
agreeable reminder to them Of the an
cient and sacred customs Of Christmas,
no doubt.
They will have something to look for
ward to in the meantime and to prepare
for, and they will feel when the turkeys
arrive that their Christmas has the
same characteristic features as that Of
their more fortunate fellows.

would depend largely upon the kind of
foundation used. "A gravel founda ion
is much cheaper than a crushed stone
foundation. 1t was their opinion that
it would be most feasible here to use
the gravel foundation.
