The rapid advance of Indian terri

EXPOSES DEFECTS
IN INSPECTION Bill
PRESIDENT SAYS COMMITTEE
SUBSTITUTE DOES NOT PRO-
TECT PEOPLE.
Almost Every Change in Measure Is
for the Worse, It Being So Framed
as to Minimize Chance of Roofing
Out Evils.

Washington, June 16. Chairman
Wadsworth OF the house committee OF
Agriculture Friday night made publ,
the correspondence between Presiden
Roosevelt and himself regarding thu
meat inspection bill prepared by thu
committee.
The president in his letter says tha
almost every change in the house
amendment was for the worse as com
pared with the senate amendment, and
in his Judgment, so framed as to mini.
mize the chance of roofing out the
evils OF the packing business.
In his reply, Mr.. Wadsworth declares
the president is very, very wrong" in
his estimate of the committees bill
calls attention to provisions in the bill
and concludes with an expression OF
regret that the president should feel
Justified by innuendo at least, in i'm
pugning the sincerity and the compel
ency OF a committee of the house OF
represeI tatives. You have no warrant
for it," says Mr.. Wadsworth, in clos
ing.
The presidents letter to Mr.. Wads-
worth follows:
Analyses Changes.
II have gone over your bill very
carefully. l am sorry to say the more
closely l Investigate your proposed
substitute the worse l find it. Almost
every change is one for the worse.
tn no ;,, ~;
it is possible that the amendment is
even worse than the original amend
ment if, as seems likely, there is no
provision for making plants accessible
at all hours to the inspectors. In any
event, I am sorry to have to say that
this strikes me as an amendment
which, no matter how Internationally,
is framed so as to minimize the chance
of roofing out the evil in the packing
business
Hampers Work of officials.
Doubtless it suits the packers, who
object to a thOroughgoing inspection,
much better than the senate amend
ment, and | have no doubt that not
only the packers, but their allies in
business and those stock-growers who
are influenced by them, would prefer
it. But am convinced it would in the
long rim be a heavy blow to the hon.
est slock-raiser and the honest packer
to adopt these provisions rather than
the tar better ones contained in the
senate amendment; for, as Compared
with the senate amendment this pro-
posed amendment would hamper in the
most grossly improper fashion the Sec
rotary of agriculture in doing the work
which You have appointed him to do.
Would Point Out Defects.
If the bill should go through in the
form that the majority of your COM
mittee proposes, it might be that 1
should sign it as working certain
slight improvement over the present
law; but, if so, should accompany it
by memorandum explicitly stating
how grave the defects were, and I can
not even promise to sign it, because
the provisions (about the courts, as
well rs about other matters) are so bad
that, in my opinion, if they had been
deliberately designed to prevent the
remedying of the evils complained of
they could not have been worse

SAYS THE AUTO
CAUSED DEATH

A suit for $4,000 damages has
been filed with the clerk of the fed
eral court by Jacob Christensen,
who alleges that on July 4, 1905,
while he was driving along the
road near Occur d'Alene City with
his sick son lying on a bed in
the wagon an automobile carrying
Mr.. and Mrs Joseph G.. Spear and
their son Lawrence frightened his
team and tne wagon was jerked so
suddenly his son was thrown out
and had his neck dislocated, re-
sulting in death the following day.
Christensen says the Spears were
driving their auto at tremendous
speed and such a dust was raised
he could not see them in time to
drive to one side OF the road. They
stopped within 80 feet of him and
remained there instead of backing
away while the working of the ma
chinery and the guady coloring Of
the auto caused his team to break
restraint and runaway.

other aids to the public health;
they feel that they should still have
charge Of the general sanitary sit
uation in San Francisco.
The fact that this responsibility
has been transferred to civilian
physicians has occasioned some
little occasion for complaint, and,
on the contrary, the work of the
army medical corps in San Fran
cisco from the day of the earth
quake has ELECTED the warmest
praise on every side. The heartiest
commentator has come from San
Francisco physicians, who appreci-
ated the value of the gratuitous
work of the army medical officers.
Under the circumstances, General
Greely's action is regarded by the
army officers as unfortunate in
that It may create the impression
that the army medical department
failed to do its full duty.
