with Jim" Watson to accept an
adjournment by the middle of May
sacrifices all other legislation he has
demanded except the employers liza
bility law, now enacted, some sort
of compromise currency legislation,
and the plan TO have work begun
this summer on tariff revision. The
latter, at that, is not a Roosevelt
plan, but political scheme by the
shrewd Republican congressional
leaders. He adopted Il, though, and
made 1t his. The currency bill Is
not yet out of the woods, but a house
caucus will try to patch 1t up later
in the week.
In his first message to this con-
gress the president described "the
most vital need" as an enlargement
of interstate commerce commission
powers to pass on future issues of
railroad securities, TO make a phys
ical valuation OF railroads and other
railway legislation, to permit pooling
and require the national license OF
railways. In this message and two
subsequent special ones he demanded
an amendment OF the Sherman anti
trust act to legalize 'good" combi-
nations of capital: to relieve labor
unions of its restriction, TO secure the
ualting of their issues of securities-by
operations and to authorize the reg
ulatin of their issues OF securities by
the bureau OF corporations. In his
first message and two special ones the
president has demanded legislation
ITO limit the abuse OF injunctlons: a
national child law and one for the
District of Columbia. the repeal OF
the duty on wood pulp, a postal saw
Iings bank and a parcels post" In
two messages out of the three, he
urged income AN Inheritance taxes,
an elght-hour law, the ship subsidy
and publicity for campaign funds.
In one message he asked that con-
gress appropriate money for campaign
funds.
This legislation he has demanded

dent has used since the days of Jack

malefactors. Now with the naval

BETTER POST UP

Recently Representative Bannon
stated in the House that the negro
voters of Ohio would vote solidly for
the Republican standard bearer next
November, whether Mr.. Taft or Pres
ident Roosevelt were nominated. A
day or two after he made this
statement Henry r Rainey, a mem
ber OF Congress from a Chicago dis
trct, read to the House letter from
Captain Walter s. Thomas, chair
man OF the Ohio Afro American
League, in which Mr.. Thomas utter
ly denied the correctness of Mr..
Bannon's statement in the following
language
"a am absolutely convinced of this
one fact--that should Secretary Taft
be nominated in Chicago for Presl-
dent of the United States, the negro
vote Of Ohio and of the whole United
,States-95 per cent or them. at least
calculation would cast their votes
for the straight Democratic ticket for
President or remain away from
the polls, thus making the election OF
"a Democratic President absolutely
certain"
If Mr.. Bannon would really like
Ohio feel, let him go to Cleveland,
lind Harry Smith and the colored
iclergymen OF that city and other
colored men Of prominence and ask
them. Let him come TO Sandusky
and ask the leading colored men or
this town and go from here to Toledo,
and Columbus, and Cincinnati, and
Xenia, Dayton, Springfield and see
the colored men themselves. If he
goes TO the Vorys headquarters in
Columbus, he will get a fairy tale
sure, they will tell him that the
colored men are all In line and that
they will be sold for Taft next No
vember. Or, II he would really like
to get at the hearts of these men,
let him. as he travels about and falls
in with colored men, ask them quiz
'etly. Take the porters in the sleeping
cars and the hotels and ask them how
they feel towards Roosevelt and Taft.
