Roosevelt Vars on Special Privileges

President Rooseveit's annual mes
sage was read to the two houses of
Congress on Tuesday of this week.
Those who have read it pronounce it
the greatest state document which
has come from the pen of Mr.. Roose-
Welt. In speaking Of the document,
Walter Wellmau, one of the leading
and most authentic Washington cor
respondents of the present time, says
at is fraught with the greatest
possible interest to those who are
studying the political currents of
this country and who are looking for
an answer 10 the question so often
propounded, namely, Is it possible
for the Republican party to free it
self Of eutauglemeats and to throw
its tremendous weight in opposition
to special privileges, or is it so Sc
curely bound in the meshes OF the
great commercial and financial pow
ers that it must leave all such work
to other parties.
"The distinguishing feature Of the
message Is a ringing declaration
that the time has come to put stop
to special privileges in railway
transportation The president says
pointedly that all other questions
are comparatively unimportant be-
side the problem of maintaining free
and equal opportunity on the great
highways Of interstate commerce

MYSTERIES OF SAP.
Now the Circulation From Roots tn
Leaves II Maintained.

LeANc8
To illustrate the modern view of sap
circulation, which is not thoroughly I'M
derstood, it is necessary to explain
that the chief food of the plants, con-
sistng Of inorganic salts dissolved In
water, is absorbed from the soil by the
roots The root consists OF q hollow
tube or cylinder lined with several
cells, the outer layer Of which contains
certain hairlike processes.
The water In the soil. containing the
salts in solution, is absorbed by these
root hairs and passes by filtration into
the cells and capillary vessels. The
activity of these root hairs and tho
concentration of fluid in the adjacent
cells create what is called root pres
sure" and this forces the sap into the
general vascular system of the plant
and up to it's furthest extremities, or
leaves.
This root pressure" is further sup
plemented by Transportation" or loss OF
vapor from the leaves under the influ-
ence of heat and light. Plants may be
said to breathe or respitn by their
leaves, and this abstraction of water
by Transportation creates n fresh de-
mand for the vital fluid supplied by the
roots. In this way the circulation, or
'rising of the sap" from root to leaves.
Is maintained PcarSon'S

The enormous immigration the

distress is so severe in other coun-

WOman's Rights In Colorado.

The Democrats ont in Denver are

Christmas money, so it is said, and
do not like the way they are used by
the horrid men at the polls. One
Republican woman testified that the
Democrats at the polls where she
was acting as challenger didn't treat
her with courtesy, pulled her hair
took her challenge book away from
her and tore it up. told the voters
that she did not know anything
about what she was talking, threw
her son out of the polling place ana

CAUSES ARREST
OF LOCAL AGENT
French Wine Company Says.
Joseph Campbell Has Not
Accounted for His Sales

Joseph Campbell Jr., local agent for
a French champagne company, was
arrested yesterday on warrant issued
at the instigation of Thomas Dentze of
Thompson & Dentze, New York repre-
sentatives of the same concern. charg-
ing him with felony embezzlement
The charge grows out of Campbells
experiences on this coast in booming a
comparatively new wine in a field long
monopolized by the wines of rival
companies. Campbell came here
about eighteen months ago. He soon
realized that he had a difficult busi-
ness undertaking before him and be-
gan spending money with a rather Law
ish hand in order to force his wine on
the local market and succeeded to
some extent in accomplishing his OBJ
ject. Three days ago, however,
Dentze arrived here from New York
and yesterday caused Campbell's ar
rest, alleging that the local agent had
appropriated certain proceeds derived
from the sale of the wine. which
should have been forwarded to the
main agency in New York.
Dentze, for a basis of his complaint,
cites one instance where he claims
Campbell sold to the firm of Rathjen
& Co. $3.50 worth of wine, for which
he made no accounting to the Eastern
agents, and it is further alleged by
Dentze that Campbell is guilty of
other cases of a similar character. In
fact he declares that nearly $4,000 has
not been accounted for by the COM
pany's representative in this city.
When arrested yesterday Campbell
made a statement to the effect that he
is prepared to account for every bottle
of the company's wine that has passed
through his hands. In pushing the
sale of his wine on the market here
Campbell declares that it was neces-
sary to distribute many bottles and
oftentimes cases of the beverage free
to consumers in order to create pop
ular demand for it. which, he says, will
readily explain away the discrepancy
in the stock forwarded to him. His
friends went to his rescue last evening
and furnished bonds for his release
from the City Prison.
