Washington, Dec. s.-The following is
the full text of President Roosevelt's
message to the second session Of the
Fifty-ninth congress:
To the Senate and House of Represen-
tatives: AS a nation we still continue to
enjoy literally unprecedented prosper
ity; and It Is probable that only reckless
speculation and disregard Of legitimate
business methods on the part of the
business world can materially mar this
prosperity
No congress in our time has done more
good work Of Importance than the pres
ent congress. There were several mat
ters left unfinished at your last session,
however, which l most earnestly hope
you will complete before your adjourn
ment.
l again recommend a law prohibiting
all corporations from contributing to the
campaign expenses Of any party. Such
a bill has already past one house of con-
gress. Let individuals contribute as they
desire; but let us prohibit in effective
fashion all corporations from making
contributions for any political purpose,
directly or indirectly.
Another bill which has just past one
house of the congress and which is ur-
gently necessary should be enacted into
law is that comforting upon the govern
ment the right of appeal in criminal
cases On questions OIL law 4DlS IlSHl
exists in many of the states; it exists in
the District of Columbia by act of the
congress. IT is of course not proposed
that in any case verdict for the de-
fendant on the merits should be set
aside. Recently in one district where
the government had indicted certain per-
sons for conspiracy in connection with
rebates, the court sustained the defend
ants demurrer; while in another luris-
diction an indictment for conspiracy to
obtain rebates has been sustained by
the court, convictions obtained pnder IT,
and two defendants sentenced to impris-
onment. The two cases referred to may
not be in real conflict with each other
but it is unfortunate that there should
even be an apparent conflict. AT pres
ent there is no way by which the gov
erEnnent can cause such a conflict. when
it occurs, to be solved by an appeal TO
a higher court; and the wheels of justice
are blocked without any real decision of
the question. / can not too strongly

enormous majority OF corporations of

the PURE FOOD LAW IAN. I.

January the national pure food law
becomes effective. Its administration is
given over to the department of agri-
culture with the assistance of the
treasury and the justice departments
in its enforcement.
Secretary Wilson has given his in
dorsement to the law and is confident
that it will result in great good. Other
officials Of the department predict ex-
cellent results from its enactment Dr..
Wiley, the chemist of the department,
states that 1--WE hope eventually to
make it absolutely safe for any one to
purchase in the market any kind OF
prepared food that goes into interstate
commerce" There is no doubt that
the department will make every eff
fort to administer the law wisely and
enforce it where occasion demands.
The law is a result Of long agitation
and at last OF stern public demand. 1t
provides for corps of food inspectors
under civil service and especially quail
flied for their duties. 1t has been much
needed Taken as a whole it is good
law and should be highly effective. 1t
will be if enforced with fearlessness
and good Judgment. And the effect
iveness and general character of the
denartment charged with Its adminis-
tration gives hope and assurance that
It will be so administered.
An expert in New York, who has
made an investigation Of conditions in
that city, asserts that New Workers
pay every year s117,5oO,ooo for ''imita-
ton foods that are worse than no
foods at all" With thorough en-
forcement of the law he estimates that
there will be marked decrease in
the death rate.

number of women in the offices of
county superintendent, and in view of
the lamentable truth that the average
man leaves supervision and care of his
children's schooling almost entirely
with their mother, it is hard to see why
these women should not have vote
that counts in the choosing of men and
measures affecting the school. De-
spite the sensation alleged to have
shaken the teachers association, the
Times believes no serious
opposition would arise against the
proposition. Most of the opposition to
woman suffrage is found among the
women. If the Iowa women desire to
vote on school matters, and they
should so desire, they will have but
to express the desire to have 1t grant
ed. But it must be the women of Iowa
who make the demand and not the pro-
fessional or self-appointed spokes-
women for ..women's rights" whom our
wives repudiate.
