TAFT FAVORS ROAD.
Anthony's Bill for the Military High
way Receives Recommendation.

Washington, Feb. 28.-Secretary of
War Taft transmitted to Representa-
tive D. r. Anthony. jr., today a letter
commencing the bill introduced by
Mr.. Anth ony in the house and Senator
Curtis in the senate for the contruc-
ton of a military road by the use of
federal convicts between Fort Leaven-
worth and Fort Riley.
Secretary Taft sent with his letter
an approval of the bill by Quartermas-
ter General Alshire and an emphatic
Endorsement of the project by the
chief of staff, General Franklin Bell,
who stated that he knew of no better
use to which the surplus labor of the
federal prison at Leavenworth could
be put than in the construction of this
road.
1t is probable that no action will be
taken by the committees of the house
or senate on these bills until after the
general army legislation Is out of the
way. when Representative Anthony
will endeavor to secure a favorable re-
port from the house committee on
military affairs.

VOICE GAVE HIM AWAY.
Leads to Detection of Burglar by Vic
tim Who Did Not See Him.

New York, Feb. 28.-Because she re-
membered the voice of a man whom
she had several times seen visiting her
coachman, Mrs. Luke Often recovered
the property that was stolen from her
home yesterday morning, and had the
thief placed in Jail. Mrs Often was
awakened early in the morning by a
man in her room. He threatened her
and then escaped. She thought she
remembered the voice although she did
not see the mans face. After some
thought she decided that it was the
voice Of a man whom she had seen
with her coachman. The coachman
told her the mans name and where he
worked. She telephoned the mans en-
ployer, who searched his room and
found the stolen articles. The man
was arrested and held to await the ac-
ton of the grand jury.

DENIES The KILLING.
AIio Now Declares That Father Leo
just Fell Dead.

Denver. Colo, Feb. 28.-Gulseppe
Alto. the slayer Of Father Leo, after
comforting with Robert H. Widdi-
combe, counsel appointed by the court
to conduct his defense. has re-
pudiated the signed statement made
by him in Jail at Colorado Springs as
well as all his other confessions.
81 didn't kill the priest, he fell
dead"
Alto declared last night.
II am a Catholic and had gone to
the church to pray.
II did not go there to receive the
sacrament. While I was kneeling the
priest came along and put the sacra-
ment in my mouth 1t Is against the
rules of the Catholic church to take
the host without first having been to
confession, so 1 spat 1t out.
1.-The priest fell back and I heard
everybody jump up. 1t being a strange
place to me. 1 was afraid, and I ran
out"
Alio is in poor physical condition.
He has quite evidently undergone
privation, and his story of living on
single mean a day at the soup
house would seem to be borne out by
his drawn face and weak frame.

Others to Flight.

battle with four men who attempted
to rob him as he was about to close
his saloon in East Twenty-fourth

of fear lest the killing might mean
q long term of Imprisonment for him,
Craven concealed the body OF the
dead robber in a hallway outside the
saloon and hurried to his home with
out notifying the police. When the
officers took him into custody less than
an hour later he at first denied all

were later arrested gave their names

PAGE TWO.

Every thoughtful observer of events
is convinced that the present situa-
ton is full Of danger Things can
not go on as they are. So unbeara-
BILE are becoming the burdens of tax
alton, direct and Indirect; so intoler-
able is becoming the effect of special
privilege on the great mass Of the I'M
privileged, that our great cities are
already the hotbeds of sedition.
Last winter tens of thousands of
desperate people, men, women and
children, paraded the streets Of north
ern cities, singing the Marseillaise,
openly calling for the overthrow of
our system of government. The dyna-
mite bomb was heard, and the incen-
diary orator at the street corner open
ly advocated the doctrine of class
war and murder. One Of two things
is certain. The militarism Of such
men as President Roosevelt will sub
Intimate in military despotism, or
the revolt Of the proletariat will con-
vulse US with the greatest revolution
known to history. Now you and [
agree that everything possible must
be done to avert both military despot-
ism and revolution. We don't want
either the one or the other. Let us,
then, earnestly study the present po-
litical situation with a view to find
ing out which candidate for Presi-
dent, and which party, offers reason
able, practicable, effective remedy for
the evils which afflict US and which
endanger the republic.
Let us consider Mr.. Taft. What
plank in his platform offers relief
from the financial despotism of Wall
Street which has given us two desc
lating panics within the last fifteen
years? What plank in his platform
proposes to lift the burdens Of gov
eminent from the backs Of the un-
privileged and to place at least por-
ton of it on the accumulated wealth
of the country? What part Of his
platform offers a single suggestion OF
material relief from the exactions and
the tyranny of the public service cor
porationsq What portion Of his plat
form proposes to put back into the
hands Of the people the right to rule
themselves? It is not to be found.
With Mr.. Taft elected President, we
have the governmental system lett
practically where it is, and where 1t
has been for these many years. Prac-
ticalIy, Mr.. Taft's platform is the
stand-pat platform. The Steel Trust
need not be afraid of it, and ism t
afraid of it; the National Banking
fraternity need not be afraid OF 1t,
and are not afraid of it; those who
are by freight and passenger traffic
compelling the business of this coun-
try to pay revenue upon seven or
eight millions of dollars of fictitious
capitalization have nothing to fear
from Mr.. Taft's platform and do not
fear it.
