ROOSEVELT'S LETTER.
Heartily COmmendS The Last Congress Fol
lis Work and Thinks Change In
LeadershIps Not Advisable,

New York, Aug. 90 letter
written by President Roosevelt TO
Congressman Jas, IL. Watson, Rush
vile, Indiana, reviewing and APPROX
ing the work OF the present congress
and declaring that a change In lead
ership and organization OF tho house
at this time, means 20 bring confu-
sion upon those who have success
fully engaged In the steady working
out OF great and comprehensive
scheme for the betterment of our civil
and serial conditions, was made pub
lie today.
The president also said that he
hopes the present congress will en-
act laws prohibiting political contri-
buttons by corporations lowering du-
ties on imports from the Philippines
and limiting the number of hours for
railway employees. Mr.. Roosevelt
says; 1--WE stand unequiyocally for
protective tarin and we feel that the
phenomenal industrial prosperity
which we are now enjoying Is not
lightly TO he ieopardlzed II would
be in the last degree foolish to secure
hero and there as mall benefit at the
cost OF general business depression
The question Of revision of the taHg
stands wholly apart from the qucs-
ton OF dealing with so-Called trusts
that is with control Of monopoies
and with the supervision of great
wealth in business, especially in cor
norate form, The onl yway in which
it is possible to deal with those trusts
and monopolios and this great cor
norate wealth, is by action along the
line Of laws enacted by the present
congress and its immediate prcdeces-
sors.

THE DANCE
OF DEATH
Scores Of Tourists Have Travelled Hundreds
Of Miles 10 Witness Strange, Wierd
Ceremonies by NOuul indians.

Holbook Ariz,, Aug, ga hund.
red weary miles 20 the northward OF
this city, TO the Pueblo of Oraibi in
the heart OF the MoQui Indian reser-
walton, scores of tourists have travel
ed within the last few days TO sec one
of the strangest, wlerdest ceremonies
ever performed by human beings
snake dance OF the MoQui priests
the dance OF death.
For days the priests Of this strange
tribe, clad only In brechcloths and
daubs OF paint, have secured the
mesas for the vcnomous rattlesnakes
which abound in the reservation.
On the day Of the dance Just as the
sun sinks behind the western hills
the priests will appear, each with a
squirming, wriggling Kissing serpent
clenched tightly between his teeth.
From the roofs OF the stone houses
surrounding the plaza the spectator
looks down upon the strange scene
while the dance goes on TO the tune
of chanting priests and kissing SER
penis until the supply Of the latter
is exhausted
Another weird ceremony which
will be witnessed by tho visitors to
Oraibi is the prayer for rain, which
will probably he held this evening.
While not so spectacular as the
snake dance It is even more interest
ing to the student Of primitive rclig-
ious.
Tho Moquis arc a peaceful and
hospitablc tribe and arc very sim.

Mexico. The first accounts Of them
date from the expedition NJ Colora-
do in 1870 They gol,cd success

they reside arc built mainly Of stone
and adobe, and tho pucblos are
