the very time the -isthmian revolution
was brewing, President Roosevelt was
engaged in formulating his canal pol
icy, and the secession of Panama was
not in any way a part of it.
President Roosevelt not only re-
solved that he would not lend the
slightest encouragement to- the 18TH
mians who We're talking Of revolt, a.
resolution which he faithfully and
scrupulously adhered to. turnout, but
that he would take no action what
ever on his own resp possibility, and
that he would appeal to congress to
formulate a policy and authorize the
executive to proceed.
President Roosevelt returned to
Washington Sept. 80. Soon thereafter
| he began work on his message. Pc
lrusal of this first rough draft affords
proof positive that the president had
| no thought or plan of encouraging a
lrevolution at Panama.
Hinted at Force.
| The Recommendation which the
I president was preparing to make to
| congress was that the. United States,
/ thru its law making power, should de-
clare to the world and to Colombia
THAT it intended to go ahead and dig
the canal, preferably by Colombia ac-
cepting the just and generous treat
ment which the United States was
lWilling to accord it, but if these prof
/ fers we're refused, then by force If
necessary.
| The greater part of the first draft
of the message relating to the canal
| was written during the last week of
October and the independence of Pa
mama, it will be remembered, was de-
clared Nov. 8.
President Roosevelt had written
that the powers granted the United
] States under the treaty of 1886 were
/ SO large that sit is q, matter of grave
4 question whether it is now necessary
/ to obtain a treaty for the purpose OF
/ building this canal. High authorities
ION international law hold that the
i canal can be dug as an incident to
4 exercising the power to prevent the
obstruction of traffic across the 18TH
/ mus.
! The president then pointed out that
THE canal cannot be built by a private
/ company and that the United States
i will not permit It, to be built by a for
i eign power. Therefore, he said. the
work must be done by the United
States.
4 Tn the next paragraph the president
4 said that in his judgment the time had
4 arrived when congress should declare
1.-The beginning of the canal must mot
g be much longer delayed, but pointed
i out that whatever was done must be
{ with, due regard for governments OF
Il the isthmus. But he added "the
i United States cannot afford to forge,
that it, too, has vital interests at stake

serving as trustees of all the civilized

Ann Arbor Mich, Nov. 14.-Fine
football weather, cold and snappy, is

Maddock's multiple duties are pos

AGAINST ILLINOIS
Only Question Before Game at Champaign Was,
What Would the Score Be?
Prophets Put It at About 80 Attempt Gphe

From a STAFF Correspondent.

Champaign, ILL.,, Nov. 14.-Minne-
sofa and Illinois line up this after
noon on Illinois field in the fifth an
snual game between the two institu-
tons. The gOphers are confident of
victory. Illinois is hoping against
hope. DR.. Williams this morning re-
iterated his assertion that the game
would be close. His opinion, how
ever, is not shared by members OF
the team, who evidently expect to see
a big score. The students and towns
men concede victory to the gophers
over. Bets of even money that Min
nesota would score four touchdowns
were steadfastly refused last night
and this morning.
There are only a handful Of Mime
sofa rooters in town. Major I. Kauf-
mann and dozen other dyed-in-tlle
wool fanatics arrived this morning.
The team reached Champaign last
night at $3.50, having left Chicago
at 6:33. The men We're tired after
their trip, but were in good spirits this
morning.
An apparent attempt to inj,ire the
Minnesota teams chances was frus-
trated this morning. An unknown man
representing himself as one of the
members of the squad left orders last
night with the clerk of the BeardsIey
house, where the team is stopping, to
wake all the members Of the squad
at IS O'Clock this morning. Fortunate
" the bell boy to whom was assigned
the task of rousing the gophers,
knocked first at the door of DR.. Will
liams room and the Minnesota coach
countermanded the order to wake
the rest of his men.
! A heavy snow fell here last night,
and to-day, tho the snow is gone. the
Illinois field is heavy and slippery.
This initiates against fast play.
The general impression is that DR..
! Williams instructed his men to try
end runs If the condition Of the field
| permitted. There is no enthusiasm
over the game among the citizens
!; here, most of whom are knocking the
! ten ,Tn.dau.ss line ".

Advertising is an investment.
Dealers in articles where the
profits is less than IS per cent

the proper proportion to be de-
voted to advertising.
There are lines where the pro-

These lines demand much high.
