PRESIDENT DECIDES FOR MILLER
Government Cannot Accept Dictntiou
from Any ORGANIZATIONS

from Any Organization.
President Roosevelt refuses TO dismiss
Foreman w. A. Miller from the govern
meRt printing office because of the OBJ
jeetions of labor unions His decision,
which he said was final, was formally
announced Tuesday nigh At the White
House AZ a conference with officials of
the American Federation of Labor. At
the close of the conference statement
was given out to the press quoting the
President as saying to the labor leaders:
As regards the Miller case. | have
little to add TO what | have already said.
In dealing with it l ask you to remem-
Der that | am dealing purely with the
relation of the government TO its en-
ployes. | must govern my action by the
laws of the land, which / am sworn TO
administer and which differeatiate any
case III which the government of the
United States is a party from all other
cases whatsoever.
"These laws are enacted for the hene-
fit Of the whole people, and cannot and
must not be construed us permitting dis
elimination against some of the people.
l am President Of all the people Of ,hc
United States without regard to creed,
color, birthplace, occupation or social
conditions My aim is TO do equal and
justice as among them all.
In the employment and dismissal VI
MN in the government service | can no
more recognize the fact that man does
or does not belong to union SIS being
for or against him than l can recognize
the fact that he is a Protestant or a
Catholic, a jew or a Gentle, as being for
or against him.
In the communications sent me by
various labor organizations protesting
against the retention of " Her in the
government printing office, the grounds
alleged are twO-fold: a. That he Is
no 2-union man; % that be is not person
ally lit.
The question Of his personal fitness
is one to he r4ttled in the routine of adj
ministratiye detail. and canno; be al
lowed to conflict with or TO complicate
the larger question of governmental dis
elimination for or against him or any
other man because he Is or is not a
member of a union
This is the only question now before
me for decision, and as TO this my decis-
Ion is final"

GOOD YEAR FOR FARMERS.
Proven by the Way They Are BayinG
Machinery.

Proven by the Way They Are BayinE
Machinery.
That the farmers generally are in a
prosperous condition is evidenced by the
good, healthy demand for farm maehin-
cry this year" said a representative Of
one of the leading agricultural im2le-
ment concerns. Taking it all around
this has been an average year for crops,
but il is hard to strike an average for
the crops in this country, the extent Of
the farming districts is so great, ard so
many and such varied local conditions
govern qnatters In the Eastern States
this year, for instance, some crops are
almost failure, the early rainfall hav-
ing been very light, and the standing
crops were almost burned up fer lack of
moisture. In the Southwest. though in
Kansas, in the Oklahoma and Indian ter
ritorie>, and north central Texas the
wheat yield is the largest in years, and
the corn crop is almost ms promising;
the next month will tell the Story Of the
corn: in the central States. Ohio. In
diana. Illinois. Michigan and Wisconsin,
tie crops are only fair In these States
the corn crop ought 10 be the best, hut
there has MOI been enough good hot
weather for cOru. AS things are now
two or three weeks of hot weather are
needed TO put the corn in good shape
There Is large crop Of oats in the cen.
trail States, but il all runs to straw
and the grain yield is not good. There
is only fair yield Of winter wheat Of
fair quality in Ohio, Indiana and south
ern Illinois.
About the worst thing the farmers
have had 10 contend with this year has
been the scarcity of help. This famine
in farm hands is due TO the general pros
peritr Of the country. In prosperous
times the men flock to the big cities and
to manufacturing ccutors, where they can
readily secure employment AT better
wages than they can earn at farming
Consequently the farmers are obliged to
find some other way Of handling their
crops, ard there is y heavy demand for
labor-saying agricultural machinery
