TAFT'S PLATFORM.
Secretary at Columbus, O., Gives Views
 on National Issues.

Secretary at Columbus, O., Gives Views
 on National Issuee.
 Columbus, O., Aug. 21.-Willlam H. Taft. secretary of the war department, made what he was pleased to term his political confession of faith" at Me morial hall. The auditorium, which has seating capacity of over 5000, was packed to the doors, and several thousands were unable to gain admit tance. The secretary spoke under the auspices of the Buckeye Republican club, and the address was notable from the fact that it is regarded as the platform upon which he will make his campaign for the Republican nomi- nation for president MT. Taft made no formal announcement of his candi- dacy, but he was introduced by Gov ernor Harris as the next president of the United States" which was the sig nal for prolonged outburst of ap- plause.
 Special interest was manifested in Secretary Taft's utterances on the tar if. He reiterated his previous declara- tions in favor of revision and declared that it would be both unwise and un- safe for the Republican party to fail to pledge itself to revise the Dingley law as soon after the next presidential election as possible. ..E.. MT. Taft also declared in favor of Imprisonment of individuals responsi- ble for violations of the antitrust law and for the offering or accepting of re bates as more effective than fines.
 Replying to Senator Foraker's asser- tion that the Hepburn railroad rate bill was q failure and that the Elkins law was all sufficient to regulate rail- ways, MT. Taft said the Hepburn law did not go far enough and that the need of amendments was already plain. He recommended that the commission receive power to classify merchandise so that railroads could not change rates by changing the classification. He also recommended the passage of law to prevent overcapitslizing of railroads and urged legislation that would prevent common directors being | chosen for two or more railroads for | the purpose of destroying competition.
 The secretary said he was opposed to government ownership of railways, be- cause 1t would involve an expenditure of SIP 2.000, 100000 and because 1t would place in the hands of a reckless execu- | tive undue control over business and politics and expose popular institutions | to danger.
 Taking up the evil of swollen for tunes, he said the best remedy was to be found in state legislation. but the federal government could properly lend its aid. He believed that when the government revenues needed addition or readjustment a federal inheritance | tax would be useful means Of rais- ing funds. A graduated income tax would>saiso have a tendency to reduce 'the motive for the accumulation of enormous wealth. he said.
 His defense of President Roosevelt's policies evoked enthusiastic applause.

PRICK AN 0PT|MIST.
He Sees No Reason For Lack of
 Financial Confidence.
TRADE CONDITIONS SOUND.

Deprecates Wrongdoine by Trusts, but
 Thinks Administration Can Cure Evils
 Without Hurting the Innocent-Ad- .
 vises Government to Act Cautiously.
 New York, Aug. 21.-Henry c. Prick came to town from his country place at Pride's Crossing, Mass, to attend the regular weekly meeting of the finance committee of the United States Steel corporation. In response to a request for an opinion on Mir. Roosevelt's Prov incetown speech Mir. Prick said that he had absolutely no comment to make on the presidents address
 Regarding business conditions and the general situation, MT. Prick con scented reluctantly to speak. He said that so far as the United States Steel corporation was concerned the volume of business now coming in to it com pared very favorably with that receiv- ed at this time last year and that the way in which business was holding up was exceedingly gratifying.
 Trade Conditions All Right
 AS to general conditions Mir. Prick spoke as follows:
 "I find nothing in underlying condi- tions to warrant the apparent great lack of confidence in business general ly which now seems prevalent. If there is anything to justify that feel ing in trade conditions I do not see it.
 'I understand the vague but real un- settlement of sentiment created by cur rent agitation against corporations, but this Is in measure apart from real conditions and is capable of correction. 1 believe myself and always have in the correction of abuses, whether cor porate or individual, but I feel that such care should be exercised in doing this that only the wrongdoer should suffer
 'Now that the government is deter mined to enforce laws hitherto dor mant, would 1t not be we'll that actions of the past, sanctioned by custom and usage at that time, should not be called into question under the new order of things, but that such activity as the government has shown should be taken as evidence of its intentions as to the future and serve as fair warning to the arrangements of all corporationsg
 "Of course where corporations are still acting outside of the law unknow- ingly it Is to be expected that they should be set right, but am sure that can be accomplished without harm to any one and without the least Injury to credit If the situation is properly and intelligently handled by the administra- iinn.v

Cincinnati, O., Aug. 21.-Circuit Judge James Pryor Tarvin of Coving- ton, Ky, died in Cleveland today from asthma. He was forty-seven years of age. He had just returned from a trip up the lakes. Judge Tarvin was wide ly known as politician, having been urged as candidate for vice president on the ticket with William !. Bryan. He accompanied MT. Bryan on several of his political journeys, a great simil- arity in their appearance and manner having led many who heard the Ken tuckian to believe they were listening to the eloquent Nebraskan.

BIames Cubans For Yellow Fever.

Washington, Aug. 21.-Governor Magoon of Cuba, in a report to the war department upon the spread of yellow fever in the American army of occupation, states that in the short period between the withdrawal and the reassumption of American gov ernment the Cubans allowed sanitary conditions to deteriorate to such an eX- tent that the recurrence of yellow fever was inevitable. He indicates that the evil sanitary conditions can- not be cured this year in spite of the most vigorous efforts on the part of the American authorities, in which they received little support from the native Cuban physicians.
