Op President Roosevelt's message
to the second session of the fifty
eighth Congress it can truly be said
that it is unique and scholarly, and
entirely of bis own production. 1t is
elegantly concise, free from superfiu-
Gus words, compact, and plain. The
President is emphatic on the question
of peace, with honor, and his language
is not to be misunderstood with ret
erence TO the South American Repub-
lies. There is note of warning to
foreign powers that the Monroe doc
trine is still of its original force and
effect. The Presidents intention on
the question of the great corpora
tious-usually called trusts-in so far
as power is invested in the Executive
by the Constitution, cannot be mis-
taken, and his recommendations on
the subject to Congress will commend
themselves to that body, as they will
to the people. He insists on due re-
gard being paid to the legal rights OF
corporations, but equally insists that
due regard must be paid the people
by the corporations. He says the
laws with reference to them now eX-
sting must be enforced and where
those laws fall short of the desired
object they should be amended. TAX
en- altogether the message will be
pronounced one of the most nota-
hle in the history of the United States
"a worthy and able production OF a
thoroughly, earnest, sincere and cour-
ageous man.

in partisan methods" If this means
anything and is regarded by the
Judge that sits in the next trial OF the
case, it means that such underhand
methods as have been practiced to Sc
cure bitter partisans as jurors to try
Caleb Powers will no longer be toler-
ated. If however the judge should
feel disposed to permit the jury to be
packed as heretofore he can override
this plain mandate of the higher
court and again convict the man by
the accustomed unfair and dishonor-

Washington Letter.

washington, -. y. Lee. u
The two great topics Gi conversa-
ton In this city are the opening OF
Congress and tn coming inauguration
which is but twelve weeks away and
promises TO be an unusually imposing
and stupendous affair. Congress will
be in session but % days, with II
weeks of actual work, or eliminating
the holidays, GO working days. I'm
der the circumstances much desirable
legislation must GO over until next
December.
1t Is gratifying to record the good
feeling which exists between Demo
cratic members of congress and the
President. Besides meeting him cor
daily they bring number or invita-
tons for him 10 visit the South next
spring. One OF these comes from the
Chamber OF Commerce In Louisville
Ky. Gen. Fitzhugh Lee says he
hopes to see the President in Virgin
la, and it is known that he intends to
meet the citizens of New Oflzars and
make a tour through Texas. That
the President does not forget the
South Is evidenced By the announce
ment that he intends TO appoint a
grandson of Stonwall Jackson, and
the son of the Macon, Ca, postma.-
ter, cadets at West Point. And he
hopes the grandson OF Jackson will
show the military genius of his
grandfather. His graceful action, al
SO, In providing a place tor tie ven-
cradle Confederate General, Senator
Cockrell, of Missouri, at salary OF
ST. 500, Is warmly appreciated by the
veterans in gray.
Congress will endeavor to devise
ways aud means for incre asing the
revenue OF the Government. The
imposition of heavy tonnage taxes
as proposed by the Merchant Marine
Commission, 1t Is thought will add
an annual revenue OF $4,000, 900.
The abolition OF the army transport
system Is likely to be considered
and, II accomplished, 1t will decrease
expenses and permit American owners
of private vessels to do the business.
1t Is proposed to tax grape brandy
used for the purpose of fortifyiug
wines. Last year no less than 3 473,-
446 gallons were admitted to this
free. A tax of 81 10 would
yield revenue of s. $4,000. 1t Is
also recommended that wood alcohol
should be taxed.
Among the bills which have been
at this session are Mr..
Overs treets for the protection of the
President of the U nited States. When
Congress adjourned, this bill was In
