TEDDY WILL BOOST
HIS ADMINISTRATION

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-President
Roosevelt's last annual message to
congress will be of the nature of a
classic-a document that may go down
in history as faithful register Of
the accomplishments and aims of the
present administration.
At no time during his term of office
has the president given the attention
to the preparation of a message that
he is devot'ng to this one. Roughly
drafted while he was at Oyster Bay
for the summer, and supplemented
since his return by important depart
mental recommendations, he is still at
work amending and polishing off its
rough edges.
Much attention will be paid in the
message to questions of economic re.
form, in which labor is deeply inter.

WILL SUCCEED Gov
ERNOR-ELECT.

TACOMA, Nov. 10.-The Tribune
says this evening that Governor Elect
Samuel G. Cosgrove is upon what is
believed to be his death bed and that
Albert E. Mead is already laying his
plans to retain the gubernatorial
chair for four years more.
Cosgrove, according to the Tribune,
took to his bed yesterday. 1t had been
known for weeks that he was suffer
ing from Bright's disease, in the last
stage of that deadly malady, but news
of his illness was denied by his
friends for political reasons. Now that
he has been elected governor of the
state, there is no longer need for con-
cealing the fact of his serious condi-
tien and they no longer keep secret
their fears that the worst is at hand.
1t had been planned to take Cos
grove to California, in the hope that
change of scene and climate and COM
plete relaxation from the rigors of the
campaign and the worry incident to
the opportunities of office seekers and
politicians would operate at least to
delay the inevitable outcome of his
malady, but so ill has he become that
the California trip has been abon
doned and every resource of medical
skill is being invoked to better his
condition.
II Cosgrove dies before his inaugu'
ration az governor, says the Tribune
then the state cannot escape iou.

years more of Mead Mead has al
ready called in the services of the
leading constitutional lawyer of the
state and has been advised by them
that, in the event of Cosgrove's death
before his inauguration, Mead, uuGer
the constitution, will be governor for
the next four years.
The constitution of the State Of
Washington provides that governor
shall hold office until his successor
shall have been elected and shall nave
qualified. While the election takes
place in November, inauguration, or
qualification, does not take place until
January, and is Cosgrove does net
live until that time Mead will con-
tinue in office.
If Cosgrove does survive until after
his inauguration but then dies, M. H.
Hay, the recently elected lieutenant
governor, will succeed him.
Mead's plans have come to the ears
of Cosgrove's friends and have created
much bitter feeling. 1t is felt that the
least the governor could do would be
to await the official announcement OF
Cosgroves serious condition which in
due course would have been given
him.
But Mead has not chosen to wait
instead he has called several con
ferences of his intimate friends and
the probability of Cosgrove's death
and it's ultimate results to himself
have been the one topic of discus
] sion.

of the city and county of San Francis
co are today ballot.ng upon the pro-
ject of incurring an indebtedness to

to accept the gift of the Hetch-
Hetchy supply source, authorize the
expenditure of $15O,000 of current
revenue for the purchase of private

EX-SENATOR cARMAcK
KILLED IN STREET DUE

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 10.-
Former United tSates Senator Edward
Carmack, editor of the Tennessean of
this city, was shot and instantly killed
on the street here yesterday afternoon
by Robin Cooper, son of Colonel Dun
can Cooper, prominent politician and
personal enemy of Mr. Carmack
Young Cooper was also struck by a
bullet, but escaped serious injury. The
affray was the outcome of the state
campaign, just ended. Senator Car
mack had been defeated by Governor
Robert Taylor IN the race for re-elec-
ton to the senate by the democratic
machine and had made in the course
OF the fight, very bitter attack upon
Colonel Cooper. Cooper was an eye
witness to the shooting, being with
his son at the time. Senator Carmack
represented Tennessee in the upper
house for the six years from 1901 to
1907 and made great reputation
there as an orator. His fearlessness
and his intellectual attainments made
him many friends among the leaders
of both parties.
Former United States Senator Car
mack was born near Castillion Springs.
Sumner county, Tennessee, November
S, 1858. He had an academic educa-
ton, studied law, pract,ced in Colum-
bia, Tenn, and was a member of the
legislature in 1884. He was delegate
to the democratic national convention
of 1896 and member of congress
from 1897 to 1901 from the Tenth con-
gressional district of Tennessee. He
served with distinction in the United
States senate for six years, being de-
feated for reelection in the primary
a little over year ago by former
Governor Robert Taylor.
Senator Carmack then resumed the
practice of law.

ested. One of the most striking fea-
lures will be recommendations of an
amendment to the Sherman antitrust
law, exempting labor organ cations
from its provisions and the passage of
an anti-iniunction law along the lines
proposed last year.
Whether the president will push his
fight for larger navy by recon-
mending the annual construction of
four monster battlesh ps, has not been
decided. He will, at any rate, ask for
two.
Defenses for Philippines.
Additional Qualifications for the Phil
ippines and for sea coast defense in
tn S country will be strongly urged
Congress will be requested to
broaden the powers Of the interstate
commerce commission, in the super
vision Of rates before they become ef-
fective. The difficulties encountered
in the adjustment of interstate rates
by states having ra lroad commissions
have raised demand for additional
federal legislation that the president
believes will meet with hearty sup
port, even by the minority party in
congress.
The postal savings bank project of
the postmaster general will receive
hearty Endorsement and an earnest rec.
ommendation that it be speedily en-.
acted into law
The great growth of prohibition SEN
timent and the demand of the states
that the federal government meet the
original package" decision of the su-
preme court, will be touched upon.
The president will also recommend
legislation requiring publicity of cam
paign expenses. He has not yet indi-
Gated whether he will repeat his pre-
vious recommendation for the enact
ment of an inheritance and income tax,
but he will press for a federal incor-
poration license and for the enact
ment of new employers liability law.
Results of Cruise.
The president will take advantage of
certain criticisms in the last congress
as to the advisability of sending the
Atlantic fleet into Asiatic waters by
pointing out the feeling of international
amity that followed it's triumphant
progress and the great advantages,
commercially and otherwise, which he
believes will accrue in Japan, China
and other points in the Orient.
Statehood for New Mexico and Ari-
zona will not be neglected, nor will
the demand for the creation of an
Appalachian forest reserve" Also his
advocacy of the adoption of a policy
looking to the purchase of at least
one legation site a year will be re-
newed.
The placing of dates upon the labels
of packing house products and the
payment of the cost of inspection by
the packers is another matter to which
he will call attention. The demand
for uniformity in divorce laws will be
reiterated, as well as child labor leg
Station.
Although it is generally understood
that the president will leave to his
successor the treatment Of tariff re-
sion, the desirability of placing wood
pulp on the free list, will again be
pointed out.

He was about to speak when third
person emerged from the gloom be-

apparently, although he was some
what stopped and wore green specta-
cles. He approached Brooks with an
affab1e smile, and, rubbing his two
hands together, said in subdued
voice:
What can we do for you today?'
The detective hardly knew how to
begin the conversation. He answered
at random:
y.Td like to look at a coat"
The man behind the counter paused
to think At the same time Brooks
keen eye detected big storm coat
on the end of the counter. He put his
hand on the garment
This just suits me; what's the low

The man started unconsciously.

stopped abruptly. He smiled in an
apologize sort of way, and began
again:
Il meant to say that it would not

turned to the salesman and said
sternly:

Brooks felt in his hip pocket He

He leaned over the counter until his
face almost touched that of the sales
man. He spoke slowly and with de-
liberation:
Come! It's time to end this farce!"
What do you mean?" cried the
other, Strengthening up.
Brooks did not speak. He acted. He
reached his arm across the counter
and grabbing the green goggles pulled
them from the astonished face of the
salesman. A shout of dismay rang
through the room.
There before the detective stood the
man with the lazy eyes.
Those languid orbs never showed the
slightest signs of uneasiness. The
mans face twitched convulsively, but
his eyes were almost motionless. Brooks
dropped the green glasses and covered
the fellow with his pistol.

He was promptly handcuffed, much
to the relief of the aged couple in the
doorway. That same afternoon Neil
Barlow, the driver of the yellow-wheel-
ed carriage was taken into custody.
Harrison and Barlow "squealed" on
Bob" Ahern, who was with them in
the conspiracy to kill Brooks, and after
a hasty trial all three of the criminals
were convicted, and given ten years
apiece in the state prison.

MARYLAND! MY MARY
LAND!
The. Most Splendid War Song of
the Civil War.

Such will probably be the award OF
the future to James Ryder RandalPs
ringing lyric 1t is not to say that it
is so noble a poem as Mrs. Howe's
.eBattIe Hymn of the Republic" or to
be compared in any way with Lowelrs
commemoration Ode, for these were
of wholly different purpose and char
acter. But BrownelPs ode of the
Mobile fight, or the fine poem : OF
.-Stonewan Jackson's Way" and
5 others of large excellence, all lack the
swift and thoughtless rush of the true
war song. "Thoughtless,' because
expressing nothing except the fever of
the moment. 'Tis folly to point out
errors and ungrounded insults, like
1.-THE northern scum'-this was the
outburst of long-trained prejudice in
the heart of youth, and it is magnifi-
sent. Randall was a man of high
ideas throughout his life, and he wrote
much in the way of poetry which he
never collected, and he himself
thought he had written better things
than this song. But it is by this
alone that he gets fame:
