President Will Not Make The Speech
The Illinois Business Men Demanded

special good for the reason that he
would only reiterate what he has said
time and again. and what the country
now understands.
Nothing to Add TO Statements.
He would say that the railroad
rate law passed at the last session OF
congress should be perfected by addi-
tional legislation; that that legisla-
ton should be in the direction OF
greater federal supervision; that his
acts and his policies were not respon-
Isible for the timidity which had de-
veloDed in business and financial af-
fairs. but that the rottenness of cor
porate methods illustrated In the
Hartman investigation was response
BILE.
The president has said these same
things TO railroad presidents and
financiers who have called upon him
at the white house He said it today
to August Belmont, the New York
banker, and ex-Congressman J. NJ.
Levy. who has large financial inter-
ests In New York.
The president has had these and
other men of large financial and rail
road interests run to him for protec-
ton against the states. and in the
first session of the last congress suf-
fered from their attacks because of
his policy to increase federal super
vision of interstate carriers.
President Gives No Pledge.
He has told these men that he is
glad to listen to whatever they may
say, but he has not bound himself to
follow their advice. AS he said TO
one of his callers today, congress is
the only body with which he will CO
operate to secure the additional rail-
road legislation which he considers
imperative.
Secretary Root and Secretary Cor
telyou have been two of the mem
bers of the cabinet who have advised
the president against making a
speech at Springfield. They fear
that a precedent will be established
under which the president will have
to make speech every time there is
furry in Wall street. How EN-.
barrassing this would be is apparent
after a moments reflection.

Washington, d. c.. April L. 1t
seems definitely decided that Presi-
dent Roosevelt after all wiz not ac-
cept the invitation of the Illinois
Manufacturers association to speak
at Springfield on the railroad and in
dustrial situation.
1t is matter of keen regret to the
president that conditions here will
not permit him to VISIT the capital
Of Illinois at this time. The invita-
ton attracted him because 1t did not
come from railroads nor shippers, but
from the manufacturers and their al
lied interests, which desired state
ment from the president which would
allay the, timidity which has devel-
oped recently. Then, too, the fact
that he was asked to speak at Spring
field, Lincolns old home, appealed
powerfully to Mr.. Roosevelt, who en-
tertains unbounded admiration for
the life and character of the civil war
martyr.
Moreover at first II seemed to the
president it might be a. good thing to
say something along the lines lndi-
Gated by the committee representing
the Illinois Manufacturers associa-
ton. But it became evident that
whatever he might say would do no

Ohio is just now the maneuvering
grounds OF the forces that must
clash before the Republican national
convention. Whether or not Foraker
is to be the opposition candidate to
Taft, it is evident that his Office is
to scuttle the Taft boat No doubt
the senior senator sees the necessity
of fighting for self-preservation, and
it was bold thing to challenge Taft
to contest before the people for the
presidency on the one hand. and Con-
gresham Burton to contests for the
senatorship at the same time. The
suggestion that the contest be limited
to Foraker and Taft, the beaten one
to retire permanently from public
life, does not fit the Foraker temper
ament 1t has been Foraker's policy
always to am ostensibly at the high
err Office and then accept the lower.

AS The Sun predicted President

prophesy in minute detail just what
he is going to do about railroad reg
ulation. If he did, the railroad
manipulators and stock jobbers, who
have been disappearing his atti-
tude and trying to discredit him and
precipitate a panic, would proceed to
confound him and make his precon-
eeived policy ridiculous, placing him
in the position of changing front

fetal, rendered Intellectual Presi-
dent Roosevelt has but one policy of
life and conduct in office: 1.-THE square
deal" Everybody is going to get
that from him, but the idea of a
square deal makes some people vince.

from railroad manipulators, have
come out publicly in favor Of Roose-
velt's policy. President Harahan, OF

He is railroad man. reared on a

tion needs the support of the people.
There will be an effort made by pow

Not all the millions Andrew Carne-
gle has given to the founding of IL
braries and different benefactions has
done as much good as his simple dec
laration that he knows nothing OF
Wall street methods, that ne never
reads Wall street reports in the pa
pers, and that Wall street manipula-
tors have nothing to do with real
business. Andrew, like many an
other. may have accepted conditions
as he found them, and turned many
a pretty trick in the steel business, but
he is no gambler and he makes haste
to disclaim any connection with Wall
street. In recent years we have al
lowed ourselves to confuse dealing in
stock and market futures without
any contemplated delivery as legiti-
mate business, although the law has
always held otherwise, and the youth
of the country has been given the
impression that all the great fortunes
are made in Wall street speculations.
Such an emphatic expression coming
from a man of so many millions as
Andrew Carnegie possesses furnishes
a lesson to many a misguided elder,
who would do well to pass it on TO
his children.
