ROOSEVELT
SENDS REPLY

In letter addressed to Honore Jack
son of Chicago, chairman of the Cook
County Meyer conference,
made public, president Roosevelt re-
plies 70 the criticisms of his recent let
ter in which he referred to Debs and to
Meyer and Hayward, officials of the
Western Federation of Miners, charged
with implication in the mrrder of for
mer Governor Steunenberg of Idaho,
as undesirable citizens.
The president says he regrets that
any body of men should so far forget
their duty to their country as to, BY
fo1 nation of societies or in other ways,
endeavor to influence justice and CO.
cree court or jury; that they, not he.
are trying to influence justice, and he
condemns what he calls their fragrant
improperly in the matter. He says
that he indicated no opinion as to their
guilt of the Steuenberg murder, but
that it was simple absurdity to suppose
that because man is on trial he is
free from citicism as to his manner of
life. He says he might as we'll be ac-
cused of trying to influence the suits
against Hartman, some of whose
friends had also criticized him.
He said that Meyer and Hayward
stand as representatives of those who
habitually appear as guilty of incite-
ment to or apology for bloodshed and
violence. He added that he was pro-
foundly Indifferent to the condemna-
ton of him for his criticisms of the un
desirable types of citizens, regardless
of the power of either labor or capital.

tive Richard Bartholdt spoke of the
necessity for making THE Hague con-
ference permanent" and added that
the United States, with the impetus
toward peach which President Roose-
welt had achieved, could accomplish
this recult by united demand at the
next Hague conference
Secretary Straus of the department
OF commerce and labor, who presided
al the meeting, opened the discussion
with an expression Of the hope that
should the forthcoming Hague con-
ference fail to prescribe a limitation

TAFT PARTY
Home FROM CUBA

Secretary of War Taft and party
have arrived at the national capital
after an absence of a month, on a trip
that included Panama, Cuba and Porto
Rico. Former Governor of Porto Rico,
Winthrop and Mrs. Winthrop were
guests of the secretary on the return
trip. The others in the party included
Representatives Burton of Ohio and
DeArmand of Missouri and Senator
Kittredge of South Dakota.
Secretary Taft says he found matters
in Cuba lin what, under the circum-
stances, must be considered a satisfac-
tory condition. There is every ground
for hope that the plan adopted for a
census, preliminary election and then
a general election six months later, will
result in the selection Of a president
and congress who will be able to main
tain themselves and give stable rule to
the island, and that the delay in taking
a census is taken by the Cubans as an
earnest of the American government s
desire to secure a stable government be
fore it leaves, so there shall be no ex-
cuse for a second intervention.

and the cost of construction by the
lumber dealers, brick manufacturers,
plumbers and the supply dealers, some
times having a ruinous effect upon
their work under contract.
