PRESIDENT WRITES LETTER AP.
PROVING WORK OF PRESENT
LAWMAklNG BODY. -
lot IN FAVOR OF GENERAL REVISION
TARIFF LAW SHOULD STAND UN-
TIL CHANGE WILL DO MORE
=. GOOD THAN HARM. ..

New York, Aug. 21.-A letter writ
ten by President Roosevelt to Con-
gressman James F. Watson of Rush
vile, Ind. reviewing and approving OF
the work of the present congress and
declaring ito change the leadership
and organization of the house at this
time means to bring confusion upon
those who have successfully engaged
in the steady working out of a great
and comprehensive scheme for the
betterment of our social and civic con-
ditions" was made public during the
day. The president said also that he
hopes the present congress will enact
laws prohibiting political contribu'
tions by corporations, lowering the du.
ties on imports from the Philippines
and limiting the number of hours for
railway employees. OF the tariff Mr.
Roosevelt says:
I'VE stand unequivocally for pro-
tective tariff and we feel that the phe-
nomenal industrial prosperity which
we are now enjoying is not lightly to
be jeopardized to secure here and
there a small benefit at the cost of
general business depression. But
whenever a given rate or schedule be-
comes evidently disadvantageous to
the nation because of the changes
which go on from year to year in our
conditions and where it is feasible to
change this rate or schedule without
too much dislocation of the system it
will be done; while a
General Revision of the Rates
and schedules will be undertaken
whenever it shall appear to the sober
business sense of our people that on
the whole the benefits to be derived
from making such changes will out
weigh the disadvantages; that is,
when the revision will do more good
than harm.
LET me add one word of caution,
however. The question of revising the
tariff stands wholly apart from the
question of dealing with the so-called
trusts-that is, with the control OF
monopolies and with the supervision
of great wealth in business, especially
in corporate form. The only way in
which 1t is possible to deal with those
trusts and monopolies and this great
corporate wealth is by action along
the line of the laws enacted by the
present congress and its immediate
predecessors. The cry that the prob
lem can be met by any changes In the
tariff represents, whether consciously
or unconsciously, an effort to divert
the public's attention from the only
method of taking effective action
Mr.. Roosevelt then enters on re-
view Of the work of congress and the
important measures passed by it,
measures which, he declares, are i'm.
portant not in partisan sense, but
are important because they subserve
the welfare of the people as whole.

STORM CAUSE OF COLLISION.
Seven Members of Work Train Crew
Are Killed,

Johnstown, Pa, Aug. 21.-Plunging
through a binding rain storm at the
rate of fifteen miles an hour a fast
freight train on the Pennsylvania rail-

crew. Three of the latter will prob
ably die. Engineer Woods was the
only member of the freight crew that
kas injured.

water plug near Sang Hollow to take
water. A Fort Wayne freight was fol-
lowing and because of the driving rain
the engineer was unable to see the
work train until just before the crash.

Second Suicide in Connection With
Chicago Bank Failure.


Chicago Bank Failure.
Chicago, Aug. 21-Another suicide
was added during the day to the list
caused by the wrecking of the Mil.
waukee Avenue State bank. Edward
Kollereb. forty-fve years Of age, who
two months ago deposited $3.50 in the
defunct institution, hanged himself
from a pile of lumber in sight of a
number of men in boats on the lake.
Several of the men hurried to his as
sistance, but were unable to reach
him in time. Friends of Kollereb
claim that the loss of the money so
preyed on him that for several days
his mind appeared to have been un-
balanced.

GRAIN RATES REDUCED.
Certain Minnesota Roads Make Cut 81
Ten Per Cent.


Ten Per Cent.
st. Paul, Aug. q. The Great North
5ern, Northern Pacific and 500 rail-
roads have announced reduction of
10 per cent on the freight rate on
grain.
The reduction will take effect Sept.
i, in time to apply to this years crop,
and the territory it will cover is the
whole state, except that part within
fifty miles Of the terminals, which
means practically all the territory in
which grain is raised.
The railroads making the reduction
grant practically everything that was
demanded by Governor John A. John
son in his letter last Thursday, except
that they don't reduce the existing
rates on distances under fifty miles.
That, however, covers very small
grain shipping area.

members of his staff arrived at New
Iberia, where negro is reported to be
suffering with yellow fever. Sys-
tematic fumigation and screening is

belief that there will be no further

The best is the
cheapest" isn't true

of everything; but it's true of
clothes. All-wool fabrics wear
longer, keep shape better. hang
better, and fit better than "mer-
cerized cotton" fabrics; and these
are the things you want your
clothes for.
All-wool clothes will cost GUY
more than part cotton, of course;
the point we make is that even at
the higher prices The re cheaper.
1t is real economy to buy a
Hart, Schafner & Marx suit, and
pay $l8..or 500 or $25 or even more,
instead of putting $l2 or $15 into
suit that's made of 'mercerized
cotton" fabric which will fail alb
solutely to do the things you
expect of your clothes. You may
save a few dollars; but you lose
money in the end by buying such
clothes. Come in and let us show
you our new line for Fall and
Winter. Well be glad to do SO.
