| ening seemed to come by force from
without.
Eat Armour's, at my suggestion /
made no preteDse Of making an m
vestigation but frankly announced
my desire to see things for myself
and to get fresh impression of con-
! ditions as I had not seen the plants
since before the strike. On every
hand there was indications of an al
most humorous haste to clean up, re-
pave and even to plan for future
changes. New toilet rooms, new
dressing rooms, new towels, etc. etc.
Swift's and Armour's were both so
cleaned up that | was compelled, to
cheer them on their way by express
ing my pleasure at the changes The
sausage girls were moved upstairs
| where they could get sun and light,
they too have dressing rooms, etc.
| asked for showers and lockers for
the casing workers at Armours and
got promise that they would put
them in. The canning and stuffing
room chip beef and beef extract at
Armour's seemed really quite good.
In all of these rooms the girls work.
At Libby's the girls are to be put in
to q blue calico uniform which they
will buy at half price. They are
putting in toilet rooms which they say
are temporary and that when the
building is remodeled they will have
these put in a better place. The haste
towards reform would have been
amusing If it were not so nearly
tragic
"They tried to win my help on the
ground that loss of foreign trade
would mean hardship for the workers
in my neighborhood and | must say
| do share this fear but | cannot see
the wisdom of my coming out public
ly and saying that I saw indications
of an awakening, for want the
changes to be radical and permanent
even though we all have to suffer for
the present"
| wish to repeat that my investl-
cations are not yet through. am not
prepared to make final statement
either as to so much of the complaints
as concern the management of the
bureau of animal industry or as to
certain of the graver charges in con-
nection with the adulteration of meat
products as well as other matters.
But enough has been developed in my
Judgment to call for immediate
thoroughgoing and radical enlarge
ment of the powers of the govern
ment in inspecting all meats which
enter into interstate and foreign COM
merce. Unfortunately the misdeeds
of those who are responsible for the
abuses we design to cure will bring
discredit and damage not only upon
them but upon the innocent stock
growers, the ranchmen and farmers
of the country. The only way perma-
nently to protect and benefit these in
nocent stock growers, the farmers and
ranchmen, is to secure by law the
thorough and adequate inspection for
which | have asked. Sincerely yours,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

spectively qualified to vote at such

aforesaid convention shall consist of
10 delegates, sixty-six of which del
egates shall be elected to said conven-
ton by the people of the territory OF

majority of the electors in each OF
the territories voted in favor of union
then, and not otherwise. the inhabi-
tants of Arizona and New Mexico, as
at present described, may become the
state of Arizona, but If in either of the
territories a majority Of the electors
shall have voted against the union
then provisions Of the bill for the as
sembling of the constitutional con-
vention shall become null and void
excepting that the appropriation made
shall be available for defraying all and
every kind and character of expense
incurred on account OF the election OF
delegates to the convention and the
submission of the question of state
hood.
Each territory will elect a delegate
to congress and vote for regular terri
torial officers at the same election, so

sition is rejected the affairs of the ter
rites will continue as heretofore"

COBURN DECLINES
He Will Not Accept the Appoint
ment Of United States Senator
from Kansas.
GOV. HoCH NAMES BENSON
The Judge Announces His Intention
to Take the Onlce-ReasOns Civ
en- by Mr.. C0burn for
Refusing.

Topeka, Kan, June 12.--F. D. Co.
burn has declined the United States
senatorship rendered him by Cover
nor Hoch, and the place has been
offered A. w. Benson, of Ottawa. Mr..
Coburn's declination was as much Of
a surprise to the politicians as was
the tender of the place by him when
Senator Burton resigned. 1t was gen
orally believed that he would accept,
but Gov. Hoch had been prepared in
case of declination to offer it to
another candidate. Consequently,
when Mr.. Coburn informed the COVER
nor that he could not accept, the gov
ernor telephoned to Mr. Benson and
offered it to him. Mr. Benson asked
to be allowed to consider the offer
until Monday, and promised to be
here on that day and give his an
swer Mr. Coburn's letter to Gov.
Hoch declining the place follows:
"My dear governor: is ac-
acknowledgement of the honor you have
proffered me in the form of an ap-
pointment to the United States senate
to fill the existing vacancy, Consider
ing all the circumstances of its maxi
ing, and it was unsought and unexpect-
ed, it is a compliment such as comes to
few, and therefore, extraordinary, graft
ifying-of which you scarcely need be
assured. Such generous expression
of your confidence given, urquali-
fedly, will always be to me source
of profound pleasure.
CAS- was my duty, | have carefully
deliberated upon every aspect of the
situation and, acting upon my knowl-
edge of it and of myself rather than the
urgency of yourself and many friends,
mutual and otherwise, | can reach TO
conclusion except the one indicated
from the first. Namely, that | must
not accept.
Il am extremely fond of the work
and the position with which the people
of Kansas have entrusted me for so
many years, and if continued in their
service at all, no other can be so ac-
ceptable.
There are many reasons, entirely
clear to me, but needless to enumer-
ate, why | should not accept the sena-
torship. and one all sufficient, is that
doing so must inevitably involve me in
political activity and combinations, If
not fractional strife, directly on account
of myself, or indirectly on account OF
others, for which am without inclina-
.tion, aptitude or strength.
81 shall be deeply panied If my de-
-cision shall seem ungracious or in any
wise cause you inconvenience or em-
barrassment.
with sentiments Of esteem and
gratitude am,as for so many years,
your friend.
