Would See Traffic Associations.

Uniformity of railroad rates was an other one of the executives themes which is of interest to the general pub lie and President Roosevelt advised pool of traffic associations for the pur- pose of comforting on rates In that connection he continued as follows: T desire to repeat my recommends ! tion that railways be permitted to form straffic associations for the purpose of conferring about and agreeing upon rates. regula tions, and practices affect %:nS interstate business in which the members of the association are mu- Htually interested. This does not mean that they should be given the right to pool their earnings or their traffic s,The law requires that rates shall be so adjusted as not to discriminate be- Tween individuals localities or differ ent species of traffic. Ordinarily rates by all competing lines must be the same. As applied to practical conditions, the Railway operations of this country can not be conducted according to law without what is equivalent to confer ence and agreement The articles un- der which such associations operate should be approved by the commission: all their operations should be open to public inspection; and the rates reelI- lations, and practices upon which they " the eomWi ssion.,'

 Under no circumstances would we countenanee attacks upon law-abiding Property, or do auGht but condemn those who hold up rich men as beina. evil men because of their riches. On the contrary. our whole effort is to in Bist upon conduct, and neither wealth nor property nor any other class distinction IS being the proper standard by which to Judge the actions of men. For the hon est man of great wealth we have hearty regard. just as we have a hearty regard for the honest politician and hon est newspaper. But part of the move- ment to uphold honesty must be a move ment to frown on dishonesty. We at tack only corrupt men of wealth, who md in the purchased politician the most Efficient instrument of corruption and in the purchased newspaper the most eff c1ent defender of corruption. Our main quarrel is not with these agents and Representatives of the interests. They derive their chief power from the great aSsEister offenders who stand behind them. They are but puppets who move - the strings pulled. It is not the puppets, but the strong cunning men and the mighty forces working for evil behnd and through the puppets. with whom we have to deal We seek to con- 4Pol law-defying wealth; in the first place Q prevent it's doing dire evil to the re- nnblic. and in the next place to avoid

 Communication.

President Roosevelt's sizzling mes sage to congress asked the enactment of fair employers liability law, more powers for the Interstate Commerce Commission. and the executive again called to the attention of the law makers his campaign against the "spe- cially privileged rich" Regarding the clared unconstitutional by the supreme court. the president said:
 "As regards the employers liability law. I advocate it's immediate reenact- ment, limiting it's scope so that it shall apply only to the class of cases as to which the court says it can constItu- tionally apply, but strengthening its provisions within this scope. Interstate employment being thus covered by an adequate national law. the field of in- trastate employment will be left to the clear definition of responsibility the states will undoubtedly give to the performance of their duty within their field the consideration the importance of the subject demands.
 ''I also very urgently adVise that com prehensive act be passed providing for compensation by the government to all employees injured in the government service. Under the present law an in the government has no remedy, and the entire burden of the accident falls on the helpless man. his wife. and his young children. This is an outrage.

Assails Injunction Abuse.

Abuse of the use of the injunction in labor cases provided another theme is some need for action regarding the rights and wrongs of labor from black listing to boycotting Continuing, he said:
 AS regards injunetiens, I can do Ift- tie but repeat what l have said in my last message to congress. Even though it were possible, should consider it most unwise to abolish the use of the process of injunction. Il is necessary in order that the courts may maintain their own dignity and in order that they may in effective manner cheek disorder and violence. The judge who uses it cautiously and conservatfXeiY. but who. when the need arises. uses it fearlessly. eonfers the greatest ser vice upon our people. and his preemi- should be heartily recognized. But there is no question in my mind that it has sometimes been used heed1essly and un5ustly, and that some of the in- functions issued intiict grave and oe- casionallY irreparabIe wrong upon those enioined.'
 That the santa Fe railroad president had guilty knowledge of relating is an assertion which the executive made with effect In his message he in closed letters of correspondence. which he declared point to the truth of his statements His words in this con nection are:
 ''In enclose herewith statement is sued by the chief of the bureau of cor porattons in answer to certain state ments (which l also enclose). made by and on behalf of the agents of the Standard oil Corporation and letter of the attorney general containing an answer to certain statements. also in closed. made by the president of the Santa Fe Railway Company. The Standard oil Corporation and the rail- way company have both been found guilty by the courts of criminal mis- conduct; both have been sentenced to pay heavy fines: and each has issued and published broadcast these state ments. asserting their innocence and of guilt. These statements are very elaborate are very ingenious. and are untruthful in important particulars. The letter and ine1osure from Mr Heney sufficiently illustrate the meth ods of the high officials of the Santa Fe and show the utter falsity of their plea of ignorance. the similar plea of the Standard oil being equally with
