work without the general public be-
ing apprised of the conditions sur
rounding them, the President holds
that they are hurtful to the general
welfare. The President takes the
position that to show the difference
between sound business enterprises
and those more or less open to sus
picion, the Government ought to
have the right to inspect and ex-
anime the workings of the corpor-
alton engaged in interstate COM
merce. Publicity will reveal the
facts so that what further remedies
are needed may be determined.
Without these facts the trusts may
force legislation that will bring
trouble upon those not needing pun
ishment as vel! as those that do
need correction and supervision.
The coal strike will be discussed
in the message, but the President
will withhold his writing of that
portion until the last, in view of a
possible report early in December
by the commission that is gong to
take up the question. Should the
commission not be ready to report
by that time, the President will
reserve any pointed discussion Of
labor and capital ques tions until the
report has been received. He could
| then transmit this report to con
gress in a special message accom-
panied by his own recommendations.
CUBAN RECIPROCITY.
The President will push his ideas
on reciprocity with Cuba and will
insist that no further time be lost
in carrying out an understanding
with the little REPUBLIC. . .
Statehood for the territories will
be urged by the President. In fact,
the friends of statehood secured the
assistance of the President at the
close OF the last session and obtain
! ed from certain senators assurance
that the statehood bills would re-
ceive full consideration. ....
Conditions ii the Philippines.
Porto Rico and Hawaii will make a
chapter in the message, with notes
on the progress toward good gov
ernment and peace,
The President will! not make any
specific recommendation in relation
to the Panama canal, but will treat
of the proposed route and the prog
ress made toward securing a clear
title thereto. F..
The President will again discuss
the need of abundant protection to
the great forests of the country.
He will also renew his recommen-
dations for Legislation that will not
recognize the Indian as an individual
and not as a member of tribe.
The President holds that the tribal
relations should be broken up, and
funds be divided and the lands and
moneys of the Indians allotted to
them individually, so that they may
have an opportunity of proving
whether they are making any prog
ress as citizens: s.
TARIFF COMMISSION WON'T WORK.
Washington, Oot. 29. tine peo-
pie Of the country are demanding a
revision of the tariff, = remarked
! Congressman Brundidge of Arkan-
sas, who is in the city, 'and they'll
not accept any tariff commission
appointed by the president as an
4 answer to their demand. Accord
ling to the newspapers, the presi.
j dent will ask congress toilet a com
mission OF tariff experts settle the
I question, and it may be that the re-
I. publicans in the House and Senate
will be willing to shit the responsi-
|. bility and turn the subject over to a
commission.
But, added Judge Brundidge,
4 '.the scheme will not work. The
d people were fooled once by a sstarifi
j commission, ( and they will not be
I fooled second time. Congress
never paid the slightest attention
& to the commissions recomme ida:
tions. The discussion Of The tariff
Il cannot be delayed much longer, nc
1 matter how much the trusts and the
/ administration try to sidetrack it.
