WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent

Washington, March 81, 1908.
President Roosevelt sent a letter to
Representative Lilley this week, whose
charges against the Electric Boat C Conn-
pany are being Investigated by the
House, in which he emphatically states
that he had not authorized j. r. o.
Archibald formerly war correspon-
dent, to make an investigation of sub
marine defenses on the Pacific coast
The letter was sent to Mr.. Lilley in
reply to statement made by him that
he had received an affidavit from Gle
ment E. Adams, of Bridgeport, Conn,
to the effect that Mr.. Archibald had, in
1906 represented himself as a war cor
respondent for Golfers Weekly and
that he had been appointed to visit
the Pacific Coast and report
the condition of the coast defenses
there. Both the Adams affidavit and
the Presidents letter of denial were
presented to the Boutell Investigating
committee.
The legislative programme which
President Roosevelt vigorously recon-
mended in his special message of Janu-
ary 81, and will repeat in an epitome of
that communication, is said to be seri-
ously threatened by what is claimed to
he the excessive demands of organized
labor. The slate as arranged by Re-
publican leaders of the Senate and
House has been broken, and a new
| schedule of favored measures must be
drawn. Senators Aldrich, Allison and
| Hale have had several conferences
with Speaker Cannon on this perplex-
| ing problem. 1t is understood that the
| President has absolutely declined to
sanction the demands of the labor or
ganizations that the Sherman anti
trust act must mention them by name
as exempt from its povision5, and must
contain clause giving them the right
to utilize the boy colt in dealing with
their enemies. The Senate leaders and
| Speaker Cannon concurred in the
| views of the President, and no such
sweeping recognition of labor will be
permitted. 1t would be equivalent to
class legislation of the most pronounc-
ed type.
The Endorsement of Senator William
B. Allison by the Iowa State Conven-
ton, on Wednesday last, was the
source of much qualification to Sena-
tors, regardless of party. There is
scarcely man in the body who has
not deprecated the fight that has been
made on this veteran Senator with the
object of retiring him to private life
after almost half a century of labor in
has served in the Senate for thirty five
years, and was member of the House
for eight years before coming to the
Senate, and no man in public life to-
day has had more honorable career.
| AS chairman of the Senate Committee
on Appropriations he holds a COM
manding place in that body. His
present term expires March 3, next,
and his colleagues, regardless of party,
hope that he will live to serve many
more years.
the House Committee on Appropria-
tions has decided not to report bill
appropriating 81 100000 fer the relief
of the survivors of the Slocum steam
boat disaster, declaring that the claim
has no foundation either in law, equity
| or precedent.

A recent telegram from Copen-
hagen states that Governor Cold, of
the Danish West Indies, has resigned
from his post and will instead become
president of the candinavian-Amer.
lean steamship line to succeed Adj
miral Richelen. 1t is learned on good
authority that Mr.. Colds former Sec
rotary, Mr.. Limpricht, will be ap-
pointed governor Of the West Indies
to succeed Mr.. Cold. The latter has
been successful governor Of the ISL
ands and his resignation from his
position has caused universal regret.
Just at present, leaving consump.
ton aside, cancer is claiming sur
prlsingly large number of victims in
Denmark. According to reliable statis-
tics 10000 contract the deadly disease
every year. This is an appalling
number for 50 small country as Den
mark.
The use of liquor continues to de-
crease throughout Denmark Last
year 10000 crowns less were ex-

preceding year and the decrease In
the consumption Of ale and beer is of

HOW HE HAS
MADE A SUCCESS
L. T. Cooper Tells Chicago Reporter Why
He Accompanies So Much.

No man in recent years has been
more successful in restoring human
health than L. T. Cooper. During his
stay in Chicago, and while he was
meeting thousands of people daily, he
gave the following reason for the re-
markable demand for his medicine to
reporter:
Mr.. Cooper said: my New Discov-
cry is successful because it corrects
the stomach. My theory is that few
can be sick if the digestive apparatus
is working properly. 1t naturally fol-
lows that few can be we'll with a poor
digestion.
II know from experience that most
of the tired, half-sick people that are
so common nowadays have half-sick
stomacns. Put the stomach in shape,
and nature does the rest. The result
is general good health. My medicine
does this. That is why fifty thousand
people here in Chicago are using it
who never heard of me until a month
ago.
Among the fifty thousand mentioned
by Mr.. Cooper who used his medicine
in Chicago is Mrs. Hilda Pfueger, lv-
ing at 1903 Ainslie Avenue. This is
the statement she makes concerning
her experience with the medicine:
Il have been sick for six years with

PRIZE FIGHTING

4 CORRESPONDENT asks US to
IN give the date of the invention of
IA prize fighting. According to a
schooIboy, it is mentioned early in Bib
Heal times, because, it is alleged. on a
celebrated occasion Jacob put on
gloves and walked into his father. We
doubt whether the expression walked
into" is allowab in the sense in
which 1t is here used, and we do not
believe Jacob was a prize fighter. Who,
then, was the first prize fighter?
When did fighting for prizes begin?
who was the first man to double his
fist and smite his brother man? Per-
haps prize fighting was originated by
person called Briareus. It is said he
had a hundred arms and with him the
game of fsticuffs must have been q
multiplex and complicated proceeding.
Briareus was probably whirlwind
fighter. In all likelihood he had not
much science and even at his best was
badly handicapped.
Perhaps some of our readers can
enIzhten us on the subject Of the
origin and earliest history Of prize
FIGHTING.

SEEMS WILLING TO WAIT FOR
LOVE TO REFORM THE WORLD

SAN PEDRO, Aug. 27.-[Editor Her
naldl: There have been several opinions
expressed in the Letter Box as to .ae
chief cause of crime. Several corre-
spondents claim that it is poverty, but
that argument will not hold good. In
a former letter l made the statement
that the saloon was the cause OF most
of the misery and crime in the world,
and still hold that opinion, but back
of that is the prime cause, which Is
selfishness, which prompts the saloon
keeper to be in a business which ne
must know works injury and hardship
to countless members of his fellow De.
ings. It is selfishness on the part OF
government because they want the
revenue from the same business.
The man who patronizes the saloon Is
selfish, because he caters to his amman
nature, and in his ignorance thinks ne
is enjoying himself, when in reality ne
is robbing himself of all that makes
life worth living, and In millions OF
cases keeps himself and his family In
poverty. Also, the selhshness of the
EMPLOYER of labor-the desire to get all
he can regardless of the conditions OF
his employees, is the cause OF a terrible
amount of misery.
between the selfish saloon keeper and
the selfish employer 1t is hard to say
which will have the most to answer for.
The Socialists seem to think that their
theories. If put into practice, would re-
form the world. / have no doubt they
roIIld Improve conditions, but there is
only one thing that will reform the
world. ana that is love. When people
universally practice the golden rule
then will poverty misery and crime
cease. N. T, :.

NOTHING DOING"

KNIT OTHING DOING is still the
" motto of the state railroad COM
~ missioners. They are well
aware of the state of public sentiment
with regard to the subject which should
occupy their attention. They know that
people are wondering why a law should
be a negligible quantity by a railroad
when there is a commission charged
with the duty Of enforcing the law and
of conducting an inquiry into delin-
quencies and Irregularities.
The stolid and obstinate refusal of the
members of the state railroad commits
sion to do their duty and the silence OF
Hearst are two of the most puzzling
features Of modern California political
life. Not only is the law clearly de-
fined, but the accusations brought
against the railroad are commonly
known and are not denied by the rail-
road. For that matter, the attitude of
the rai'road seems to be like that Of
Mr.. William Tweed, celebrated citi-
zen Of New York, who. when charged
with irregularity, said cheerfully: you
are right. 1 acknowledge it. I was
guilty Of all that, and perhaps a great
deal more. What are you going to do
about it?"
What are the citizens of California
going to do about it If officials continue
TO betray their interests to the corpo-
ration whose unlawful actions these
officials are supposed to hold In check?
Must we sit quietly by while we as a
community are Knocked by the public
servants appointed and salaried to pro-
tect US from the irregular methods of
brazenly bold corporations, whose au-
dacity is based on belief entertained by
them that for reasons best known to
them and to those with whom they
have had dealings, they are immune
from punishment

SAYS REAL REMEDY IS
TO LAY AK AT THE ROOT

LOS ANGELES, Aug. N.-LEditor
Herald: Nellie Martin wants an an
swer in regard to the case of Mrs.
Fowler. When men say women should
stay at home" they simply expose their
ignorance OF present economic con-
ditions which force women out of the
home, not only by evictions but by the
necessity for earning g. living.
In some factory towns the usual
order has been reversed and the wife
and children work In the mills and the
husband stays at home and keeps
house. This because woman and chiia
labor are more profitable to the mill
owners. This illustrates how the sys-
tenn will preserve the home, though 1t
turn it upside down to do 1t.
do not agree with Nellie Martin as
to single blessedness securing immunity
to women from the fate of Mrs. Fowler.
Some working women secure measure
of independence, but with the majority
it Is not so. In one of his reports Car
roll d. Wright says: "A large number
(of working women) earn Che means
get) 81 and So per week. One is forced
to ask how women can live on such
earnings" Jacob Riis cites the case or
a beautiful young woman in New
York manufacturing department. He
says: "She Is typical or q hunoreo
other women. She averages So a week.
One meal a day is her allowance"
Florence Kelly says of women working
in certain trades in Chicago: There
are exceptions, but the rule is that half
a year causes nervous breakdown"
To me the case Of Mrs. Fowler, dread
full as 1t is, is no more pitiful and
tragic than that of the men who are
daily committing suicide because they
cannot get work. The workings OF the
competitive system naturally and In
evitably produce these results. In
times of prosperity when a large per
cent of the workers are employed mills,
factories, mines, etc, are run at a
feverish rate producing things to sell.
They must have market, and IN the
main the working class constitutes the
market. But the workers only get
back In wages about one-fifth OF what
they produce, so they cannot buy back
or form a. market for all they produce.
Thus goods pile up In storehouses and
the mills must shut down, throwing
men and women out of employment to
starve, go insane and commit suicide.
The workers have produced so much
food that they must starve, so much
clothing that they must go In rags.
The remedy is to lay the ak at the
root of the profit system. Under Co
operation, with the workers getting the
full value of what they produce. there
could be no panics, no starvation.

Bank Deposit Protection
Yields Excellent Results

large gamers through the confidence
such a law inspires, especially during
periods of stringency and panic.
Some months ago when bank failed
in Oklahoma the state banking board
took charge and announced its readi-
ness to make immediate payment in
full to every depositor. The money for
the purpose was available in the state
treasury, from the small tax levied
upon the banks for that special pur-
pose. although the institution which
failed was almost destitute of cash.
Had there been no state guaranty
fund the one failure might have pre-
cipitated a general panic, in which all
the banks would have suffered heavily,
as well as the public, says the Sacra-
mento Bee.
The Oklahoma law, embodyings the
Bryan policy, is somewhat similar in
aim to that feature of the national
banking act which guarantees full
payment of the notes Issued by the
national banks. National bankers make
no objection to that provision. however
much any Of them may be opposed to
the Bryan idea of protecting depositors
against loss. But why chould not de-
positors be protected as well as the
holders of bank notes?

VENEZUELA

b" OLLAND will signalize the fact 1t
III was the scene of the peace con-
- ference at The Hague. In order
to show how it appreciates the aim OF
that Christmassy council, it will dis
patch a navy to Venezuela to enforce
right" by might" The Venezuelans
are not worried by the prospect. They
understand the local situation a great
deal better than the Dutch, and they
don't think the navy of Holland. which
consists mostly of torpedo boats, can
make a permanent Impression on Vene-
zuela.
The Venezuelan navy cannot be sunk,
because there Is no Venezuelan navy.
The Dutch sailors cannot win laurels
by display of sea power in Venezuelan
bays. The best or worst the Dutch
fleet can do is to accomplish a little
bombarding, although with feet COM
posed principally of torpedo boats even
that may be a somewhat difficult teat.
If Holland lands an armed force In
Venezuela there may be another story
to tell. Venezuela has no seamen,
but she has landsmen, and no doubt
could give the Dutch invaders a red
hot welcome. The worst of the whole
miserable, mercenary affair is that it
will dignity the status and personality
of Castro. That reckless little mon
arch who masquerades as a ''presi-
dent'' will be greater man than ever
If the armed might Of Holland is des-
patched against him, to act as a debt
collector.
Next time there Is a peace conference
at The Hague, Castro should be invited
to attend 1t and deliver an address.
