HUGHES EXPLAINS POSITION
Not to Take Part in New York or

Albany n. Y, Oct. 20 In a letter
sent to General Stewart l.. Woodford
of New York City, Governor Hughes
clearly defines his reasons for declin
ing to speak in the New York City
campaign or take any part in the
pending election. New York City
Republicans extended an invitation
through General Woodford for the
governor to speak at the big meeting
tomorrow night. In replying the gov
ernor says:

Under our system the governor is the
reviewing officer, to whom the more
important local authorities are ac-
countable. The mayor, the comptrol-
Ter and the borough presidents are
removable by him upon charges. SO
also are district attorneys and sher-
IFS. The governor has no higher
prerogative and he should so conduct
himself with regard to local controv-
ersies that to the greatest extent pos
sible he may exercise this important
judicial decision. sustaining and dis

BIGGEST PENSION BUDGET
Fewer Names on Roll but Total Sum
Paid Out Grows

Washington, Oct. 20.-Death
caused 4S,312 names of war veterans
to be dropped from the pension rolls
of the United States last year. or
this number 32,S13 were Survivors of
the civil war. The total loss to the
pension roll from all causes was ST.
5S1.
In contrast to these figures, COM
prised in the annual report of Yes
pasian Warner, commissioner of pen
sions, is the statement that the gov
eminent paid out in pensions in the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1909, $161,
973,703, which the commissioner de-
clares is the largest amount ever dis
bursed for pensions in one year.
Commissioner Warner explains
that the increase was due principally
to the large number of pensioners
placed on the roll under the act of
Feb. 6, 1907, granting S12 SIS and
$50 to survivors of the war with
Mexico and the civil war, on reach
ing the ages of 81, 20 and rs, respec-
lively.
The increase is also due in part to
pensions granted under the second
section of the act Of April 10, 1908,
to widows of persons who served in
the civil war, without regard to their
pecuniary condition, and to the in
crease from $8 to $12 per month of
the rate of pension of certain wild
ows, minor children and helpless
minors. The pensions OF 2O2,577
widows, minor children and helpless
minors, who were already on the
rolls, were increased by this act.
Summarized, the report shows
these facts: Number of pensioners
at the beginning of the year, 915,6S7;
number of new pensioners added to
the roll, 46,0SS; pensioners on roll at
the close of the year, 946,194, a net
decrease Of 5493.
Survivors Of the civil war on the
roll now number 593,961.

BLUNDER IN PAPER
RATE CHARGE
AGAINST TAFT
Apparently Led Into It During
Last Days of Session
MAY DISTURB BUSINESS
Letter from Herman Rider to Presi-
dent Says Committee Figures
safeeuarded American Industry

Chicago, Oct. 20.-President Taft
apparently was led into a serious
blunder in the closing sessions on the
print paper schedule, according to an
open letter recently addressed to the
chef executive by Herman Ridder,
president of the American Newspap-
er Publishers association.
Mr.. Riders letter was made pub
lie yesterday, following its endorse
ment by the International and Daily
Press association. The letter fol-
lows:
President Riders Letter.
ITO the President-The full text of
your address at Winoma, Mimi, on
the tariff bill has just come to hand.
With the utmost respect we submit
that your statement respecting the
paper schedule shows that you could
not have correctly read or under
stood what the print paper paragraph
contained as it passed the House of
Representatives.
You were apparently led by de-
signing men into a serious blunder
when, in the closing days of the
tariff conference, they induced you to
print paper, and changed your not
ions of what the Mann committee re-
commended and OF what the House
of representatives had approved.
The Mann committee, after ten
months investigation. marked by I'M
usual thoroughness, reported that a
rate of two dollars would cover the
differences in cost of production at
home ard abroad. The draft propos-
ed absolutely safeguarded American
paper mills against the serious Cana
dian tangle which your advice to the
tariff conferees has since precipitat-
ed.
The fixing of the rate on print
paper at $375 per ton which you ad-
vised, has decided the province Of
Quebec to prohibit the expectation of
its pulp wood, and many American
paper mills must close or move to
Canada to obtain their supplies of
raw material. The country is now in
a fair way for trade war with Can
ada, because of your apparent fail
ure to read correctly the Mann com
mittees recommendations. We are
threatened with an industrial distur
bance which will involve business in
terchanges with Canada amounting
to $2S5,000,000 per annum
I'VE sincerely trust that you can
find some method of rectifying the
mistake into which won were led.
We fully appreciate the difficulties
and responsibilities of your exalted
office, and we believe you are trying
to do the best you can. We know
that you must rely upon others for
your information. We feel that
every citizen is under obligation to
help you. Therefore we write this
letter to you.
Yours respectfully
Herman Ridder,
President American Newspaper Pub
fishers Association"

COUNTIES CONTEST FOR FINE
Addison and Rutland at Loggerheads
Over Autoist's Contribution

Middlebury, Oct. 20.-Attorney F.
G. Swinington was in this town on
Monday to demand the payment of
500 by the Addison county court offic-
ials, into the treasury of Rutland
county. The money in question was
paid by Col. H. NJ. Hume of Brooklyn,
n. Y, who spends his summers at
Hyde Manor in Sudbury.
He was arrested some time ago by
Deputy Sheriff Noble A. Sanford on
the road leading from East Middle
bury to Ripton, and, being taken to
Sudbudy, pleaded guilty over the tel
ephone to Justice A. W. Dickens of
Middlebury and paid fine of $50 to
the authorities of Addison county.
1t is now claimed that the respon-
dent was arrested in Rutland county
and pleaded guilty there, so that the
fine should go into the treasury of
that county
1t is also rumored that the confer
ence relative to the posting of the
dangerous spots in the road in ques-
ton, held between State. Highway
Commissioner Gates and the select
men of the town of Middlebury last
Saturday, had some bearing on the
case, but Mr. Gates refuses to give
out any information until a week has
passed
