Master of the House Instead
of Its Servant.

Washington, May 4.-The house spent
another day in consideration of the ma
val appropriation bill the speeches in
large measure being in support of the
bill and the naval programme therein
outlined.
Mr.. Burton of Ohio delivered d schoI-
arly address against what he termed
the needless enlargement of the navy,
cOntending that the American nation
could we'll afford to serve notice upon
the other nations that il stood for in
terna tional arbitration and the peace
Of the world.
Mr. Butler of Pennsylvania and Mr.
Calder of New York supported the bill
both agreeing that the measure had
less TO criticise in it than any bill re
ported from the naval affairs commit

Shot at Roosevelt.

''One does not care to handy words
with the president of the United States.
It IS not easy to 1ifferentiate between
Mr.. Roosevelt, the president, and Mr..
Roosevelt the individual. He has
given of his advice most generously
on every subject from the size of our
families TO the mistakes of federal
judges, and some error is inevitable
now and then TO the most conservative
man under such circumstances.

has or ms now knowingly engaged in
practices which are unlawful.
The commissioners report, upon
which the presidents message is based
opens with the statement that the man

about rs, O0O, coo barrels annually. 1t is
uuimpOrtant. but il would nevertheless
have been fair for him to have stated
that over fifteen millions of barrels Of

He next calls attention to the fact
that the Standard Oil refineries are 10
Gated at centers of distribution. while
the independent refineries are usually

Paid Close Attention.

A feature of today's session was the
close attention paid by the house to
the reading of the presidents message
on oil transportation and the generous
applause which was accorded it on it's
conclusion. The house will continue
the consideration of the naval bill to-
morrow.
The rulings of Speaker Cannon again
were the subject of a speech by Mr..
Shackleford OF Missouri
In defiance of the constitution and
the rules" he said. the speaker eXer-
cises an absolute veto power over all
legislation proposed here; instead of
being as the constitution cOntemplates,
the servant of the house, the speaker
has constituted himself its master"
At 4:3O the bill was laid aside and
at ABS the house adjourned until to-
morrow noon.

views to certain pending amendments
to the Hepburn bill The meeting lasted
more than an hour. While the president
made it clear at the outset that he de-

views he might express. he said that he
was perfectly willing that his views
should be known and stated in the Ian

were present.

Not Worth a Contest.

He made it clear that the judgment of
the friends of the measure was so even
" balanced on the question of the Long
amendment that il was scarcely worth
while to make a contest for it, as a wear
or two of the laws operation would dem
onstrate clearly whether It would be nee
esSary further to amend the act in the
way proposed by Senator Long.
The president assured his hearers that
he and every advocate of the pending
measure would be satisfied perfectly with
the Hepburn bill with the amendment
proposed by Senator Allison

Court Review Proposition.

The discussion dealt chiefly with the
various propositions for a court review,
from the broad amendment proposed by
Senator Bailey Of Texas to the restricted
amendment offered by Senator Long of
Kansas. The president in beginning in
Dictated clearly and positively that he
would be satisfied with the enactment of
the Hepburn bill as it was reported TO
the senate from the committee on inter

ever that some advocates of railroad

legislation as he himself was-believed it
would be wise so to amend the measure
as to provide specifically for "A review of

Protest Against Methods Used.

In the presidents effort to secure
the passage of a bill charging the pow
ers of the interstate commerce commits
sion and just and equitable railway
rates we have precisely the same in
terest that any good citizen has. No
more and no less. Regarding his criti-
cisms upon the management of the
railways, or his structures upon any
acts of the interstate commerce COM
mission we have neither responsibility
nor concern. When, however, he or
Commissioner Garfield attacks the
Standard Oil company and uses its
methods Of doing business as an object
lesson for the purpose Of promoting his
views we protest. 1t may be frankly
stated a the outset that the Standard
Oil company has at all times within
the limits of fairness and with due re-
Sard TO the law, sought to secure the
most advanta geous freight rates and
routes possible. There will be no de-
NAL of this fact on our part. The ques-
ton is whether we have at any point
violated the law or the proprieties-

We welcomed the investigation When
Commissioner Garfield in the discharge
of his duty visited our offices he and

business was conducted Frank dis
closures of all our methods were made,

so conscious were We of our recti-

proposed ourselves TO answer some of
the unfair criticism upon the subject
