By direction of the President. Score
tary Wilson today issued the following
statement:
American live stock are the healthiest
In the world. The great ranges of the
West produce herds of cattle in which
thespercentage of disease is remarkably
small, and the Federal Government is
steadily reducing, by approved scientific
methods, this small percentage.
The legislation which has just become
effective provides the Department of
Agriculture with an adequate inspection
law and with ample money to carry it
into effect. Supervision and inspection
will be extended from the pasture to
the package. The Federal stamp upon
the can will be guarantee not only of
the healthfulness Of the animal, but also
that the product was prepared in sani-
tary surroundings and with the addition
of nc deleterious chemical or preserva-
tive. Any meat-food product bearing
the Government stamp will be fit for
food.

CHEERFULNESS.

1t is fine attribute of true manhood
to be hopeful and cheerful no matter
how much reason one has to be gloomy
and downcast The man who stands
erect and presents to the outside world
a calm and unruffied exterior while his
very soul is suffering indescribable an
guish is more truly hero than the
man who charges in battle cheered on
by the shouts of the multitude and mar
tial music. Anybody can be cheerful
while things are going their way and
success and prosperity attend every
move, but times of stress test the stuff
a man is made of. 1t is then we see his
real greatness or smallness of soul.
And what an inspiration it is to us all
to come under the beams of sunshine
that radiates its life-giving warmth
from those hopeful cheerful souls!
Amid storm and tempest standing like
the ancient oaks of the forest-serene,
immovable. uncOnquerable! A tramp
one day was asked how he got along
during the cold winter months sleeping
Out-of-doors. He replied: II amt
died nary winter yet" Cheerfulness
as well as gloominess is contagious.
Some people walk around carrying long
faces and cast shadows everywhere
they go, but the cheerful, smiling,
hopeful man or woman cheers up droop-
ing hearts and Escatters sunshine and
gladness all about them. It is one of
the most blessed Of all the graces that
adorns humankind.

HOW WORK OF CONGRESS-
is VIEWED BY PRESS
tFrom the New York HeraId.1

tFfon the New ORR Heraid.)
The session of Congress just ended
has been one of the most notable ever
held. Under the stimulus of an arous-
ed public sentiment and spurred on by
the President, it has enacted measures
to correct evils in railway management,
in preparation of packing house pro-
ducts and in the adulteration of foods.
These are but few of the important
bills passed, but these alone would con-
stitute commenable record, and one of
the remarkable features Of the session
is the manner in which partisan lines
were ignored in working and voting for
these popular reforms The reproach
of "a do-nothing Congress" can never
be applied to the Fifty-ninth. In its
first session it has been emphatically
a "do-some-thing Congress. "

(From the Philadelphia Public Leader
Many people who read history and be-
come deeply absorbed and highly excit-
ed by the change Of Ministries or the
shifting Of the scenes in past ages never
awake to the fact that history is being
made under their own eyes, and, that
they are taking part in the great drama.
Such are the people who do not per-
ceive the mighty changes that are GO
ing on in the United States Of America
today. The visible signs in legislation
of this era Of radicalism are the rail
road-rate bill, the meat-inspection bill,
the pure-food bill-which concentrate
more and more in the hands of the Fed
eral Government ampler, wider, greater
power over the business and the activi-
ties of American citizens. The bills
in.themselvos are good bills and the leg
islation was necessary, unavoidable.

tionists at from 1000 to 1900. There
is considerable discussion as to wheth-

Government Business, Requires Duplex
r System and Branch South.
Washington, Aug. 20.-Commercia
receipts from the Alaska cable and tel
ecraph lines amounted to $4,000 II
Julyy, which ID 81, in excess Of
the amount collected by the Unit d
States in any previous month. The
ocffiial dispatches sent during the
month would have cost $4,000 had
they been paid for at the commercial
rates. The rapid increase in the de-
mands upon the Alaskan cable and tel
eoraph lines will be met by the gov
eminent by the duplexing OF the ca
bles.
The cableship Burnside, which Is to
install the duplexing apparatus at tho
Alaskan end Of the cable, will proba-
bly, leave Seattle about September 10.
It will carry 200 miles Of new cable,
which has just been shipped from Now
York for the extension OF the cable
service south Of Ketchikan. This ex-
tension will be effected by tapping the
line from Sitka to juneau at Cape Fam
shaw. From that point branch line
will be extended down to Wrangell,
then to Hadley, on Prince of Wales
island, and then to Ketchikan, which
Is only 60 miles from Port Simpson,
the English tonwn which is to be the
terminus Of the Grand Trunk Pacific
railway.
It is believed that this additional
900 miles of cable will result in q great
INCREASE in cable receipts, as the fed
eral system taps a country which is
rich in mines and fisheries and already
has many large canning factories,
which stand greatly in need of daily
communication with the United States.
In case the cable ship does not encoun-
ter bad weather the line will probably
be completed by November l. Capt.
Henry w. Stamford, of the signal
corps, will direct the laying Of the
new line.

DIRECT DISPATCHES add
IMMENSELY OF DISASTER

ciated Press has received authoritative
information confirming the worst re-
ports of the earthquake in Chile.
Valparaiso is partially destroyed.
Most of the damage was done in the
center of the city, extending from the
Plaza del Orden to the Plaza Pratt.
Many lives we're lost, but the number
8 not yet known. Hundreds of per-
sons we're injured.
Santiago also suffered severely, and
there was much loss of life.
Los Andes, eighteen miles east of
San Felipe, and having a population
Of 5000, was almost totally destroyed.
Other towns on the Chilean side of
the Andes wholly or partially de-
stroyed are Quillota, with popula-
ton of 5000; Llay Llay, with a popu-
lation Of 2, 500; nlapet, with q pop
ulation Of 5000; vallenar, with q
population Of 5000, and San Felipe,
having $4,000 inhabitants. Quillota
is q mass of ruins and there was great
loss of life there.
From Santiago to the Andes every
bridge and tunnel on the railway was
utterly wrecked and the railway lines
torn up. The shock is supposed to
have been caused by the eruption Of q
volcano near Jenin Los Andes.
It is impossible to estimate the d.
mansions Of the disaster at the present
moment, owing to the circuitous route
over which the news is received.
There is no doubt, however, that the
catastrophe was Of terrible proper
tions.

CANNON PRESIDENTIAL
BOOM IS LAUNCHED

Danville, Ills, Aug. 2o.-The con-
vention of the Eighteenth Illinois con-
gressional district was called at /
o'clock yesterday and renominated
Joseph G. Cannon for the eighteenth
consecutive time, being the seven
tenth nomination by reclamation.
There was the greatest enthusiasm,
especially over the prospective candi-
dacy of Mr.. Cannon for president.
Mr. Cannon had not intended to
launch boom for president at this
convention, but the pressure Of his
supporters was SO great as to sweep
away his wishes in the matter.
Mr.. Cannon's supporters in his own
district will likely urge the state con-
vention to make similar. endorsement
There seems to be little doubt that
this will be done.
Mr.. Cannon, after the adoption of
the resolution endorsing him for pres
ident made speech discussing condi-
tions and pointing to the great pros
perity of the country. As anticipated,
he also discussed at some length the
labor question.
Touching on his endorsement by the
convention for the presidency, Mr..
Cannon, after expressing his apprecia-
ton, said:
II would not exchange your conf
dence for the qualification of any am
bition might have. It is proper for
me to say, however, that We are on
the eve Of the campaign for the cleo
ton of national house of representa-
tives which may involve one-third of
the personnel of the United States SEN
ate to say nothing of the campaign in
the respective states.
cas- you are aware the election will
be held in November next. In poll
tics, as we'll as in other. matters of
life, it is best not to CROSS q stream
until you come to it. The first stream
to cross is in November next, and it
is necessary that we should be SUCCESS
full in crossing it before we attempt to
get over the river Of 1908.
