SECRETARY WILSON THINKS
PANIC IMPOSSIBLE.
Will Be a Good Crop Year-No Such
Thing as FaiIure-"Tama Jim"
Laughs at the Talk of Financiers
About Panic-Farmer Story About
Railroad Securities.

The prosperity of the United States
cannot be destroyed by Wall street
aurries, in the judgment of Secretary
of Agriculture Wilson. 1t has been
asserted by financiers who have come
to Washington and consulted with the
president that only good crops during
the coming season would save the
country from serious business and f.
nancial depression and there will be
such crops, according to Mr.. Wilson.
No longer can there be anything
like universal crop failure" said the
secretary. There is no reason to
anticipate anything more than the
growing of crops, how to prepare the
soil, how to seed and how to cult
yate plants ard harvest grain.
The furries that are occupying
Wall street are not affecting the farm
population at all. Many OF the farm
ers do not now anything about them
and if they do, they think there is
simply a manipulation of stock with
which they are not concerned. You
can not get the farmer to touch any
thing of that kind now, because he
does not know what the consequences
may be. A sad reflection on our rail-
road stocks at this time is the fact
that Notwithstanding farmers who
have made and are making money
know SO little about railroad securi-
ties and have so little confidence in
them that they won't touch them, are
sending hundreds of millions Of dollars
across the border into Canada to buy
land which they know will not run
away"
The secretary deprecated The failure
of the railroads to furnish transporta-
ton for crops, pointing out that many
bins were full of grain as a result of
the lack of transportation facilities.
In consequence, money which would
have been paid for the crops is not
in circulation

ROOSEVELT LIKES HIS WORK
Rugged Statesman Cares Naught for
Strain.

StTdit1s
It is said that when an eminent
statesman told the president the other
day that he was looking tagged out,
the president reached over to him and
in whisper that was audible through
out the room, exclaimed: With all
that | have and all that / am called
upon to do, am enjoying myself more
than any other man who has ever
been in the White House," And he
looks the part.
The extreme illness of Archie
brought more lines of care into his
face than were ever before seen there.
There were days that he secured no
exercise. The lawn tennis court had
not yet been put into condition and
he would not leave the White House
for walk or horseback ride, but
when the opportunity offered he soon
resumed his daily routine of sports
and felt better for it,
But the president is bearing his bur
dens well. He had an unusually hard
winter of it and If he did not show
some signs of wear and tear he could
be properly classed as one of the great
wonders of the world.
Here are few of the important
problems to occupy his attention:
Threatened railroad strike in Chica-
go, Central American war, Taft-For-
aker presidential fight in Ohio, Pana-
ma strike, house cleaning, Cuba, south
ern immigration, German tariff,

San Francisco-Two sensational
pieces of evidence in the brlbery-graft
investigation were adduced before the
grand jury Saturday. Three members
of the executive board of the Pacific
States Telephone & Telegraph CON-
pany, E. S. Pillsbury, Homer 5. King
and Timothy Hopkins, testified that
they had no knowledge whatsoever Of
the alleged bribing of supervisors to
vote against the award of a competi-
tive franchise to the Home Telephone
company and that if bribery was COM
mitted it was up to" Vice President
Louis Glass, whom the grand jury al
explain. Another member of the exc
cutive board, Percy S. Morgan, made
the same denial of knowledge several
days ago when on the witness stand
The second sensation came when E.
S. Pillsbury, who is a director of and
attorney for the Pacific States Tele-
phone company, testified that Abra-
ham Ruef, the indicted political boss,
has been for more than two years on
the private payroll of that corporation
and has been paid regularly $1,000 a
month. This, said Pillsbury, was more
than the salary paid to himself. When
he discovered this, he testified, he OBJ
jected to the company and his own
remuneration was increased.
