which the presldent.elect outlines
the things the nation MAY expect
from his administration. He de-.
clares that he will enlarge and

and promptly and Justly furnishing
them: ayers that he is not prelu.

Regarding his attitude toward
corporate evils, he says:
Great corporations call them
trusts, II that is the popular term
when conducted within the law
are a considerable part OF the force
that makes for the prosperity OF
the country. | am in favor OF
combinations Of capital, Just as

are rightly conducted.
II would nc more think OF de.

Estrada Palma is Dead.

Tomas Estrada Palma, the FIRST
president ot the Cuban republic,
is dead.
Tomas Estrada Palma'S father
was a Spanish planter in Cuba.
Tomas was born in Cuba in 1885
and studied law IN Seville. Al.
though he was heir to a large estate
and had every incentive to support
the cause OF the crown he worked
tor Cuban independence,
\ long residence and environ
ment in Europe enabled Palma to
contrast the conditions OF Spain
with that Ot the last OF its Ameri-
can colonies. When the Young
man returned from Spain he was
determined that he would do a
man : part IN removing the shackles
that bound Cuba to the most reac.
tionary and clicte OF the European
monarchics. In the revolution OF
iSbS-7s he vas an active factor.
Ii was in 1883 that Senior Palma
assumed the role OF THE little
schoolmaster. IL Central Valley,
y. y, he leased a residence and
opened 'Paima's institute, a col.
lege Tor teaching languages, his
tory and the elementary principles
oi education.
Head OF the Cuban lunta in the
United States, 1t became the duty
OF Palma to plead tor the recognl-
ton Of the be%lligerentS in Cuba.
His work was able, continuous and
effective, To him, as much as to
any man, is due the credit tor
American Intervention with an
armed force.
MAY 20, 1909, Tomas Estrada
Palma was Inaugurated as prrsi.
dent OF Cuba and moved into the
palace OF the captain genera.

DECLARES ~ Will CARRY uur
ROOSEVELT POLICIES.
II intend to carry on, to the
best OF my ability the Roosevelt
policies that work Tor the correc-
ton OF evils IN business ,,ithout
running the business itself. on
which the livelihood and happiness
ui millions OF me and women who
have not furnished the capital
depend.
MY record on labor, my attitude
toward labor, were mlsrepresented
from the beginning Of the cam.
paign. ! believe that | convinced
the intelligent labor men Of the
country that ! had been mlsrcpre.
scented. | proved to them that,
tar from being an enemy OF the
workingman, was not only his
friend, so long aS he conducted
himself within the law, but that
further, while on the bench, in an
opinion, ! laid the foundation tor
the prosperous and effective labor
union as IT is conducted today.
Il want to say that the opposi.
ton OF Mr.. GOmpers and the other
labor Leaders will not turn me aside
the slightest from the purpose ]
have to continue the course OF
President Roosrvclt's admlniStra.
ton in doing everything possible
TO put labor on an equality with
capital and to give labor an equal
lty OF opportunity IN the ncgotia-
tons between them; to give labor
that which W. like to bclievf be-
longs to every American CITIZEN
equality OF opportunity, but no
particular privilege.
II believe Ia the revision of the
tariff, and will do what | can within
the jurisdiction ut the executive
office to bring It about. The re-
publican party is pledged now to
give a thorough and genuine re-
examination and revision OF the
tariff, but 1t has not specified eN.
actlN the plan It proposes to pursue.
The ncN congress will be- called
IN extra session 10y me immediately
alter the adjournment OF the pres
ent congress 10 carry on the partv's
pledge.
Il believe that the next congress
will pass the bill providing for
postal savings banks. Objection
has been made that this is p~a,ernal.
ism and socialism and is introduc.
ing the government into the bank
Ing business. The answer 10 that
IS tins: Where a general service
TO the public cannot be we'll dis.
charged by private enterprises,
and can be very effectively and
economically discharged by the
government, the government should
undertake IT,. The postal savings
bank comes exactly within this
principle

pending appeal to the courts.
William Homer Leavitt has dis.

took up his abode in Paris, and
from there he issued a statement
denying that he and his wife were

an and Mrs. Leavitt did not visit

Ruth Bryan and William Homer
Leavitt were married six years ago.
1t was a case oi love at first sight,
and although her parents strongly
objected to the marriage, the -.
ycar.old girl had a way OF carrying
her point and was married.
The Lcavitts lived IN New
Orleans Tor a time, and then came
TO Denver. For awhile they lived
IN an apartment hoase, but later
