CONvENEs MONDAY
Interest in President Roosevelt's
Message.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-The
coming session of the Sixtieth con-
gress, which will convene on Mon
day, and the presentation of Roose-
yelt's message will, as a matter OF
course, largely engross public atten-
ton next week Words, not actions
will likely form the keynote of the
session. as is always the case when
congress meets just prior to a pre-
dental campaign. Oratory Will
doubtless flow unconfined, but any
INCLINATION to enthusiastic energy
will be frowned upon. There is only
sone obstacle to this traditional do
'nothing policy, and that is the per-
sonality of Theodore Roosevelt. Whe-
Their lawbreakers will defy the big
stick and follow precedent remains to
pc determined.

Message will reiterate those measures
which have come to be known as the
Roosevelt policies" Perhaps the
post important of all Recommended

capitalization of railways and the
ontrol of great corporations doing

currency reform are more eagerly
awaited than usual, in view of the
present financial situation. The mes
sage Is also expected to commend fed
eral licenses for corporations doing
interstate business, the amendment
OF the Sherman antitrust law in re-
gard to corporations acting in re-
straint of trade, the graduated inner
itance tax, to which the president has
already committed himself, and the
revision of the Philippine tariff,
which was left over from last session.
Corporation grabbing of public lands
will be condemned. The sending of
the fleet to the Pacific will be discus
sed in it's relation to foreign affairs.
Uniform marriage and divorce laws
will probably be touched upon, as will
the subject of child labor and methods
of prevention. An educational test
for immigrants will be the subject of
a recommendation. The labor cues
ton will be considered and sugges-
tions made for the arbitration of lab
or disputes and an employers Liabil-
ity law. The Panama canal project
will receive considerable attention,
and the development of inland water
ways will be the subject of lengthy
chapter in the presidential message.
The members of congress will this
year escape the wire-pulling and i'm
portunities for jobs that usually at
tends the organization of a new con
gress. All of the old officers and
chief employees of the House will go
into Office again. Joseph G. Cannon
of Illinois will resume the speaker
ship without opposition, and there
will be no contest for any other
place of honor or profit in the House.
Presidential politics as a scientific
game will doubtless be the feature
of the session.

FORAKER WISHES
THE PRESIDENCY
Will Leave SenatOrShip For Some
Other Man

WASHINGTON. Nov. 3O-Senat-
or J. b. Foraker made it clearly un-
derstood today that he will contest
the Ohio delegation to the republic
can national convention with Mr..
Taft. This decision is contained in
letter to Conrad J. Mattern, vice
president of the Ohio Republican
league, who forwarded to Mr.. Forak-
err a copy of the resolutions adopted
by the advisory and executive COM
mittee OF the league indorsing Mr.
Foraker for the senatorship and for
the presidential nomination. He de-
tends his course in relation to the
passage of the railroad rate bill and
insists that the necessity of the rail-
roads of the country to spend mill
lions of dollars annually in increas-
ing their facilities makes this a bad
time to hamper the roads in any un-
necessary way by legislation.
Senator Foraker says ne is graft
fed by the indorsment of the com
mittee at this time because 1t is a
fiat rebuke to the suggestion that the
Office of United States senator is to
be stripped of all the real honor at
tached to It by making its incum-
bent a mere agent to register the de-
crees of somebody else.
In the course of his letter Senator
Foraker says;
Il do not want to even appear to
be a candidate for two Offices at the
same time. and therefore forego the
double honor proposed, and with
heartfelt appreciation accept the sup
port for the presidential candidacy
which the committee have so gem
erously rendered"
