WASHINGTON, Dec. 8. ~ President
Roosevelts message to Congress follows
To the Senate and House of Representa-
tives
The Congress assemblies this year under
the shadow of a great calamity. On the
9Th Of September President Mckinley was
shot by an anarchist. while attending the
Pan-Amerlcan Exposition, at Buffalo, -and
died in that city on the l4th Of that month
Grief of the People.
The Shock, the grief Of the country are
bitter In the minds of all who saw the
dark days while the President yet how
cred between life and deatl
When we turn from the man to the Ma
tlon, the harm done Is so great as to ex-
cite our gravest apprehenslons and to de-
mand our wisest and most resoiute action.
This criminal was professed anarchist,
infamed by the teachings of professed
anarchists, and probably also by the reck-
less utterances OF those who, on tine stump
and in the pubic press, appea. to the
dark and evil spirits of malice and greed,
envy and su.len hatred
The Anarchist IL a M9IefnetOr.
The Federal Courts should be given
Jurisdiction over any man who kills or at
tempts to kill the President or any man
who, by the Constitution or by law, is In
line Of succession for the Presidency
while the punishment for an unsuccessful
attempt should be proportioned to the
enormity OF the offense against our insti-
tutions. Anarchy is a crime against the
whole human race; and all mankinf
should band against the anarchist.
His crime should be made an offense
against the law of nations, like piracy and
that form of man-stealing known as the
slave trade, for 1t Is of far blacker infamy
than either. II should be so declared by
treaties among all civilized powers. Such
treaties would give to the Federal Gov
ernment the power of dealing with the
crime.

NAVY DEPARTMENT.
Work of UpbuiIding Ii Must be
StenhIIY CnntInued.

The work of upbui.ding the Navy must
be steadily continued. No one point OF our
pohcy, foreign or domestic, is more I'M
portant than this to the honor and MAJ
teiial welfare and above all to the peace.
of our Nation in the future. Whether
we desire 1t or not, we must hencefortn
recognize that We have international du.
ties no less than International rights.
Even If our flag were hauled down in the
Philippines and Porto Rico, even II we
decided not to build the Isthmian canal,
We snou.a neeu mo. oughly framed Navy
OF adequate size, or else be prepared defn-
itely and for all time to abandon the
idea that our Nation Is among those
whose sons go down to the sea in ships.
Unless our commerce is always to be
carried in foreign bottoms, we must have
war craft to protect it.
Should BE No Cessation.
There should be no cessation in the
work of completing our Navy. So far
ingenuity has been wholly unable to de-
wise :, substitute for the great war
craft whose ha ammering guns beat out
the mastery of the high seas. 1t is unsafe
and unwise not to provide this year for
several additional battle-ships and heavy
lrmored cruisers, with auxiliary and
ghter craft in proportion; for the exact
numbers ana character refef you TO
the report of the Secretary of the Navy.
But there Is something we need even more
than additional ships, and this is addi-
tional officers and men. To provide bat
tle-ships and cruisers and then lay them
up. with the expectation of leaving them
unnamed until they are needed In actual
war, would be worse than folly; it would
be crime against the Nation.
The Naval Militia.
The naval militia forces are state organ
fzations, and are trained for coast service,
and, in event of war, they will constitute
the inner line of defense. They should re-
ceiVe hearty encouragement from the
General Government
But In addition We should at once pro-
vide for Il National naval reserve. organ
lied and trained under the direction of
the Navy Department, and subject to the
call OF the Chief Executive whenever war
becomes imminent. 1t should be a real
auxiliary to the naval seagoing peace es-
adjustment, and offer material to be
drawn on at once for manning our ships
in time of war. 1t should be composed
of graduates of the Naval Academy, grad
'uates of the naval militia, officers and
crews of coast-line steamers, longshore
schooners, fishing vessels and steam
yachts, together with the coast population
about such centers as life-saving stations
and lighthouses.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS.
Restoration of Confidence and Re-
turn of PrOspePtty,


During the last FIVE years business con-
fidence has been restored, and the Ma
tion is to be congratulated because Of its
present abounding prosperity. Such pros
perity can never be created by law alone
although 1t is easy enough to destroy II
by mischievous laws. Fundamentally, the
welfare of each citizen, and, therefore,
the welfare Of the aggregate of citizens
which makes the Nation, must rest upon
Individual thrift and energy, resolution
and intelligence Nothing can take the
place Of this Individual capacity; but wise
legislation and honest and intelligent ad-
ministration can give 1t the fullest scope,
the largest opportunity to work to good
effect.
Caution I'm Dealing With Trusts.
An additional reason for caution in
dealing with corporations is to be found
in the International commercial conditions
of today The same business conditions
which have produced the great aggrega-
tions of corporate and individual wealth
have made them very potent factors In
International commercial competition.
Business concerns which have the largest
means at their disposal and are managed
by the ablest men are naturally those
which take the lead in the strife for
commercial supremacy among the ma
tions of the world. America has only
Just begun to assume that commanding
position in the international business
world which we believe will more and
more be hers. 1t Is of the utmost impor-
tance that this position be not jeopar-
died especially at a time when the over
flowing abundance OF our own natural re-
sources and the SKILL business energy and
mechanical aptitude of. our people make
foreign markets essential. Under such
conditions 1t would be most unwise to
cramp or to fetter the youthful strength
of our nation.

No single great material work which

Its material effects upon our business

MisehievOus Legislation.

In dealing with business interests
for the Government to undertake, by
crude and ill-consilered legislation, to do
what may turn out to be bad, would be
to incur the risk Of such far-reachins
national disaster that 1t would be pref
erable to undertake nothing at all. The
men who demand the impossible or the
undesirable serve as the allies of the
forces with which they are nominally at
war, for they hamper those who would
endeavor to find out in rational fashion
what the wrongs really are and TO what
extent and in what manner 1t is practl-
cable to supply remedies.
All this is true; and yet 1t is also truc
that there are real and grave evils. on
of the chief being decentralization be
cause Of fits many baleful consequences
and resolute and practical effort mus
be made to correct these evils.

Department Of Agriculture.

The Department OF Agriculture, during
the past 16 years, has steadily broadened
its work on economic lines. and has ac-
complished results Of real value in up
building domestic and foreign trade. 1t
has gone into new fields until 1t is now in
touch with all sections Of our country and
with TWO of the island groups that have
lately come under our jurisdiction, whose
people must look to agriculture as live
lihood. 1t is searching the world for

Interstate Commerce. Law.

In iss7 a measure was enacted for the

were that railway rates should be just and
reasonable. and that all shippers. local
tiles and commodities should be accorded
equal treatment. A commission was ere

posed to be the necessary powers to exc

Regulation of Corporations.


There is a widespread conviction in the
Winds Of the American people that tn,
great corporations known as trusts ar,
In certain Of their features and tenden-
cles hurtful to the general welfare. This
springs from no spirit of envy or un-
char.tableness, nor lack Of pride in the
great Industrial achievements that have
placed this country at the head of the
nations struggling for commercial su.
premacy. 1t Is based upon sincere
conviction that combination and conccn-
tration should be, not prohibited. but su.
pervised and, within reasonable limits
controlled; and In my judgment this con.
vietion is right
Great corporations exist only be.
cause they are created and safeguardee
by our institutions, and II Is. therefore
our right and our duty to see that they
work in harmony with these institutions.
Necessity OF Publicity.
The first essential In determining how tc
deal with the great Industrial combina-
tions is knowledge OF facts-publicity.
Artificial bodies. such as corporations
and joint stock or other associations. de-
pending upon any statutory law for their
existence or privileges, should be subjec,
to proper governmental supervision. an6
full and accurate information as to theil
operations should be made public regular
ly at reasonable intervals.
The large corporations, commonly called
trusts, though organized in one state. al
ways do business In many states. otter
doing very little business In the state
where they are Incorporated. There Is
utter lack OF uniformity in the state laws
about them; and as no state has any ex-
elusive Interest In or power over their
acts. L has In practice proved impossible
TO get adequate regulation through state
action. Therefore, in the interest of the
whole people. the Nation should, without
interfering with the power of the states

INsULAR MATTERS.
what Must BE Done TO Develop
Hawaii.

Hawaii.
In Hawaii our aim must be to develop
the territory on the traditional Ameri-
can lines. We do not wish a region Of
large estates titled by cheap labor; we
wish a healthy American community OF
men who themselves till the farms they
own. All our legislation for the islands
should be shaped with this end in view;
the well-being of the average home-mak-
or must afford the true test OF the healthy
development of the Islands. The land
policy should as nearly as possible ne
modeied on our homestead system.

Clean HAY.

IN a year like this, when many farm
ers and :dairymen are obliged to. buy
hay, as Well as the market gardener
and stable keeper, it will be well that
before buying they should see to it
that they get clean hay. free from
weed seeds, says The American Cul
tivator..s We, often see baled hay that
contains half dozen kinds Of weeds.
not only the ragweed, that seems ever
ready to start wherever it can find a
vacant spot, but plaintain, dock and
even thistles. that, once well rooted,
are hard to exterminate. If we were
cutting hay to SELL we would have
none Of those in the field, or we would
take a sharp spade and cut them out
before the hay was cut They can be
easily found when the grass is two or
three inches high. and if cutting them
below the surface then does not kill
them it WILL SO check their growth that
they will not ripen many seeds before
the grass is ripe, enough to cut. And if
we were buying hay to feed out where
we expected to use the manure upon
our own land, we would goa long way,
and pay a big price. before we would
accept hay that had such foul stuff
among it: ~ - - ~ J. 2 Fl II:
