DAY IN PRESIDENTS LIFE.
The Program Of the Chief Execu-
tive at Oyster Bay. Am

(From the Broadway Magazine.)
The usual daily program of the
President while he is at Oyster Bay
begins with his bounding out of bed
(and that Is really his characteristic
method Of beginning the day. and
Fastening for the shower bath. The
hour is never later than Z. clock.
He takes the shower cold--as cold
as he can get 1t. There is prodig-
tous splashing of water, and 1t Is q
man with color surging ic his cheeks
who seeks the breakfast table. He
Is invariably attired, then, for a ride
-breeches, soft shirt, and crash
coat, with his big Panama lying on a
convenient chair in the hallway On
the way from the breakfast room to
his mount, he makes a stop Of from
ten to twenty minutes in his study.
There the most important kilograms
or letters that have reached Secre-,
tary Loeb since the conference of the
preceding day are on the desk. What
ever problems they present he takes
with him ON his morning ride. Arr
chile and Quentin, or frequently Mrs.
Roosevelt, are his companions on
these rides, although several times a
week the President goes forth unac-
companied. 8
Back from this morning constitu-
tional, at 1890 o'clock, he dictates
his private corresp pondence, and
sharply on the stroke Of II o'clock
Secretary Loeb makes his appear
ance. The hurrying Secretary comes
to the house in the big, white secret
service automobile-the only auto
mobile with any right of way at all
on the prfyat road. From one to
three assistants are with him. The
official mail Is carried in a big lea
ther pouch. Two hours of the fast
est sort Of work then goes on, and
Secretary Loeb and his assistants do
not look any too fresh when they re-
sumo their seats In the white auto
mobile and are taken back to the ex-
ecutive Offices in the village.
During his daily morning visit,
Secretary Loeb acquaints the Presi-
dent with the name of his visitor or
visitors for the day. At I o'clock in
/ the afternoon the President is-feady
to receive them. Usually, however,
they have already been received by
Mrs. Roosevelt. There Is no form OF
etiquette observed, and II a visitor
arrives before the President has fin-
ished his statesmanly labors, the
Chief Executive, looking through his
study window at the sound Of an ar
irving carriage Is very apt to rush
out on the porch and greet his Wis
itor In the most informal and there
fore all the more cordial fashion.

LATINiER's PARTY RETURNS.
Immigration Commission Spent De-
lightful Summer Touring Europe.

New York, September 6.-After
a several months tour of inquiry into
the immigration situation abroad the
members Of the subcommittee of the
United States immigration Commits
sion arrived here. The members
have obtained much data, which they
believe will aid in solving many Of
the immigration problems now con-
fronting the United States. The
whole committee will meet later and
prepare the report and recommended
tionS, which will be submitted to
Congress.
Senator Dillingham;, the charm an ,
In statement said: "In conductl..g e
their Investigations the commission
ers gave special attention to the
method employed by transportation
companies in handling the immi-
grants, the effect Of the United States
immigration laws upon European i'm
migration, and the attitude Of va
rious countries toward the departure
of their subjects to other lands. The
question Of preventing the coming of
States has been the chief subject Of
investigation by a subcommittee, and
1t Is probable that important recon-
mendations on this matter will be
made to Congress"
He added that there Is q decided
tendency on the part of certain aliens
to send back to their native country
a large part of their earnings. He
continued: added to this Is q desire
on the part of nearly all seaboard
countries Of Europe to build up a
merchant marine. AS the carrying
Of emigrants is In many cases essen
tial to the success Of such an enter
prise, the attitude of such govern
ments toward emigration Is affected
accordingly. These are forces that
control the situation in Europe, and
the trend Of affairs indicate that
more attention and greater super
vision OF emigration on the part Of
the countries most concerned will
result"

OF the missiles striking Mr.. Batson
In the right side, and causing, 1t is

rested and jailed, charged With MAX
Ing the assault. The negro has been
employed at the dam by contractor.
He gives no explanation OF his at

other than that he says he thought
he saw somebody reach for a gun.
This explanation is believed to be

BOIL wEEvM IN STATE?
B. f. Taylor Shows How It Might
Have Come u Suggestion.

Mr.. B. F. Taylor, the secretary of
the South Carolina Cotton Seed
Crushers' Association, said yesterday
that, II the report should poye true
concerning the boil weeyil, the meth
cd of Introduction into the State is
not hard to find. Ever since last
May, when the shortage OF the cot
ton seed hull supply in this State be-
came apparent, brokers' and dealers
have been buying hulls from the
West.
1t is impossible to tell where these
hulls came from, as many of them
mills realized the danger and dis
cussed the matter frequently and
finally decided to refuse to buy any
of the Western hulls.
Cotton seed hulls offer an ideal
| method for the hibernation Of the
boil weevil, and -. these hulls are
produced from an infected seed or in
a territory infected by the weeyil it
Is almost certainty that the hulls
Will have numbers of the pests in
them. The proper step should be to
quarantine against fDly hulls or ag-
ricultural product shipped from in
fected territory. The Department Of
Agriculture should look closely after
| shASt eho SopOSidily dlISI uuIl SnlD-
ments, he says.
There is poor sale for hulls In
Texas and the prices ruling in this
state for this product offer an unu-
sual opportunity for brokers, dealers
and manufacturers to ship the hulls
from infected territory into this
State at a handsome profit. The
freight rates from the West also en-
courage such shipments.
| Laurens is in the midst Of the
section than anywhere-to places the
State, and prices are higher in that
section than anywhere--ta places the
hulls are selling at SIS per- ton-it is
no surprise, therefore, that the re-
port about the boil weevil should
come. Especially when the dealers
in hulls are not patriotic enough to
refuse the Western shipments.
| Parties have been known to go to
the railroads asking for a reduction
in rates from the West so that they
could get the hulls in at lower cost.
At the urgent reqeust of the oil mill
association, the parties referred to
stopped their negotiations, but ship
ments from west Of the Mississippi
are positively known to have come
into the State.
Mr.. e. d. Smith, field agent, goes
to-day to a meeting of the executive
committee of the Southern Cotton
Association at Jackson, Miss. He
urges the Laurens farmers to send
him samples of the Infested plants
in that county. Mr.. Smith would
like to see the weed. leaves, bolls
and all parts of the cotton so that IL
the pest be not the weevil he may
submit 1t to the farmers from diff
ferent sections for an opinion. In
the meantime he advises the Laurens
farmers to get into communication
with Prof. Chas. H. Chambliss at
Clemson College.-From the State,

SELL THE PHILIPPINES L?
Islands Out OF Way, United States
Would No Longer Fear War.
(From the New York Herald. }

(From the New York Herald.)
AS practical people we should
face the situation squarely. If our
short experience In the Philippines
has convinced us that we are not
equal to the coping Of their racial
prejudices, and If majority of the
American nation Is unwilling to
shoulder the responsibilities Of over
sea expansion, then the sooner the
United States goes out Of business as
colonial power. the better for every
body concerned.
Retention Of the islands means for
the United States just such an, uphill
fight as England has fought and won
in Egypt, or as France has fought
and won in Algeria, and appears
willing to enter upon In Morocco.
1t also means a possible war with
Japan, for the Philippine question is
the only conceivable cause of a war
involving the United States and ia
pan. This appears to be realized by
the administration, as 1t is difficult
to believe that thirty-two big fight
Ing ships are being transferred to
the Pacific coast of the United States
solely for the purpose Of gratifying
Secretary Metcalf, who happens to be
Californian. and not at all with the
object Of providing for the defense
OF the Philippines i'll case of need
With the sale of the islands the
menace Of Japanese war would dis
appear. The presence Of such pow
erful American naval force in the
Pacific would certainly enhance their
market value, should their sale be
decided upon, by showing that the
United States is prepared to hold
them until an acceptable purchase
price Is forthcoming. If the Ameri-
can people prefer. therefore, to shirk
the responsibilities and risks of colo
NAL expansion and would rather haul
down "Old Glory" than pay the cost
of keeping 1t flying where 1t has once
been hoisted, advantage should be
taken OF the presence In the Pacific
OF the American feet to put up the
Philippines for sale.
This may not be very glorious
step to take. but 1t Is more business
like than our present policy of leav-
Ing the Philippines at the mercy of
native insurrectionists and envious
foreigners.
