PROTECTION OF THE BALLOT.
The Enactment of Law Against
Bribery Recommended.

The Enactment of n Law Against
Bribery RecOmme nded.
The power of the government to pro-
tect the integrity of the elections of its
own officials is inherent and has been
recognized and affirmed by repeated
declarations of the Supreme Court.
There is no enemy of free government
more dangerous and none so insidious
as the corruption of the electorate. No
one defends or excuses corruption, and
1t would seem to follow that none
would oppose vigorous measures to
eradicate it. recommend the enact
ment of a law directed against bribery
and corruption in federal elections. The
details of such law may be safely
left to the wise discretion of the Con-
gress, but it should go as far as under
the constitution it is possible TO 60
and should include severe penalties
against him who gives or receives a
bride intended to influence his act OF
opinion as an elector; and provisions
for the publication not only of the ex-
penditures for nominations and cleo
tions of all candidates but also OF
all contributions received and ex-
penditures made by political commit
tees.

established as a national gallery of
art; and the Smithsonian Institution
should be authorized to accept any adj
d1tions TO said collection that may be
received by gift, bequest. or devise.
A National Quarantine Law.
1t is desirable to enact a proper ma
tional quarantine law. 1t is most I'M
desirable that a state should on its
own initiative enforce quarantine reg
ulations which are in effect a restric-
ton upon interstate and international
commerce. The question should prop
erly be assumed by the government
alone. The surgeon general of the
National Public Health and Marine
Hospital Service has repeatedly and
convincingly set forth the need for
such legislat ton.
/ call your attention to the great ex-
tranvagance in printing and binding
government publications. and especial
~ to the fact that altogether too
many of these publications are print
ed There is a constant tendency to
increase their number and their vol
ume. 1t is an understatement to say
that no appreciate harm would be
caused by and substantial benefit
would accure from, decreasing the
amount of printing now done by at
least one-half. Probably the great
majority OF the government reports
and the like now printed are never
read at all, and Furthermore the print
ing of much of the material contain
ed in many of the remaining ones
serves no useful purpose whatever.
The Currency.
The attention of the Congress
should be especially given to the cur
rency question, and that the standing
committees on the matter in the two
houses charged with the duty. take up
the matter of our currency and see
whether it is not possible to secure an
agreement in the business world for
lettering the system the committees
should consider the question of the
retirement of the greenbacks and the
problem of securing in our currency
such elasticity as is consistent with
safety. Every silver dollar should be
made by law redeemable in gold at the
option of the holder.
l especially commend to your imme-
date attention the encouragement of
our merchant marine by appropriate
legislation.

ing. TO give object lessons to our peo-
pie in methods by which worthless
lands may be made productive.
The insect friends and enemies OF
the farmer are getting attention. The
enemy of the San Jose scale was found
near the Great Wall of China, and is
now cleaning up all our orchards. The
hg-fertilizing insect imported from
Turkey has helped to establish an in
dustry in California that amounts TO
from fifty to one hundred tons of dried
figs annually. and is extending over
the Pacific coast. A parasitic fly from
South Africa is keeping in subsection
the black scale, the worst pest of the
orange and lemon industry in Cali
fornia.
Silk Culture.
Careful preliminary work is being
done towards producing our own silk.
The mulberry is being distributed in
large numbers, eggs are being import
ed and distributed. improved reels
were imported from Europe last year
and two expert reelers were brought
to Washington to reel the crop of CO.
coons and teach the art to our own
people.
The crop-reporting system of the
Department of Agriculture is being
brought closer to accuracy every
year. 1t has 250,000 reporters select
ed from people in eight vacations in
life. 1t has arrangements with most
European countries for interchange
of estimates, so that our people may
know as nearly as possible with what
they must compete.
Irrigation.
During the two and a half years
that have elapsed since the passage
of the reclamation act rapid progress
has been made in the surveys and ex-
aminations of the opportunities for
reclamation in the thirteen states and
three territories of the arid West
Construction has already been begun
on the largest and most important of
the irrigation works, and plans are be-
ing completed for works which will
utilize the funds now available The
operations are being carried on by the
reclamation service, a corps of engin-
GERS selected through competitive civil
service examinations. This corps in
cludes experienced consulting and
constructing engineers as well as va
rious experts in mechanical and le-
gal matters and is composed largely
of men who have spent most of their
lives in practical affairs connected
with irrigation.
To Carry Out n Great Work.
The larger problems have been solv-
ed and it now remains to execute with
care. economy. and thoroughness the
work which has been laid out. All
important details are being carefully
considered by boards of consulting en-
gineers, selected for their thorough
knowledge and practical experience.
Each project is taken up on the ground
by competent men and viewed from
the standpoint of the creation of pros
porous homes, and of promptly re-
funding TO the treasury the cost of
construction. The reclamation act has
been found to be remarkably complete
and effective, and so broad in it's
provisions that a wide range of un-
dertakngs has been possible under it.
At the same time, economy is guar
anteed by the fact that the funds must
ultimately be returned to be used over
again.

The bill providing for a service
pension Is before congress. II is
backed by the Grand Army Of the
Republic. II enacted It will give
a pension OF si2 a month to every
soldier who served ninety days In
the union army during the civil
war, was honorably discharged
and has attained the age Of %
years. A like pension will be
given the widows Of such soldiers
In all cases where the marriage
took place prior to June "a, 1890.
The bill, It Is explained, Is not
designed to interfere with existing
pension legislation. 1t provideD
that no soldier or widow receiving
n pension under its provisions
shall be entitled to a pension under
any other law. The Grand Army
committee had a long conference
with president Roosevelt about
the N and also talked with
Pension Commissioner Ware,
about their work, and both have
declared themselves In sympathy
with the undertaking.
