ROOSEVELT'S WORKS
REPRESENTATIONS SEVEN
YEARS RECORD.
His Administration Shows Abundant
chievements-Beneit to Nation
Attributes Far-Reaching Importance
to Panama Canal Construction-Navy
More Than Double.

. President Roosevelt looks with su-
preme satisfaction over the accomplish
ment of his seven years of administra-
ion.
He gives no post of honor to any one
achievement, but he has authorized a
statement of those which he considers
the most important, as follows:
"The navy of the United States has
been more than doubled; it has now
done what no other similar feet of a
like size has ever done, viz, circum-
navigated the globe, and it is also in
far more efficient battle trim than
when it started out year ago.
The Panama Canal
"No feat of quite such far-reaching
Importance has been to the credit of
this country in recent years as the
Panama canal.
1.-THE peace treaty of Portsmouth
was a substantial achievements as also
was the part played by the United
States in the Algeciras conference.
"The settlement of the anthracite
coal strike was matter of very real
moment to the American people from
the standpoint not only of industrial,
but of social reform and progress.
"The forest reserves of the country
have been trebled or quadrupled; the
forest service has been reorganized
and placed under the department of
agriculture; and there have been ere
ated number of reservations for pre-
the birds and beasts as we'll as the
trees.
Provision for Irrigation.
"In the matter of legislation, the
national irrigation act, which is re-
sulting in the development of the semi
arid states of the great plains and
Rockies, is an achievement second only
in Importance to the creation of the
homestead act itself.
"The administration of the civil gov
eminent in the Philippines has been
put on satisfactory basis. Because
of American interference in Cuba the
island is now in a thriving and pros
porous condition and is on the road to
stable and orderly independence. The
treaty with Santo Domingo has put the
affairs of the island on a better basis
than they have ever been before.
1.-THE position of the United States
in regard to the Latin American re-
publics is infinitely better than it has
ever been before, as is also the case
with japan.
" A law has been passed improving
the administration of the army and of
the national guard.
1.-THE law establishing the depart
ment of commerce and labor with the
bureau of corporations enabled this
country to take the first really eff
cient step toward exercising proper
national supervision and control over
the great corporations.

sheriff for service to satisfy the judg-
ment obtained by David M. Lyman for
a $I50,000 loan secured by mortgage.
An eight hour mining law, which is
both satisfactory to the operators and
the house at Olympia. The law pro-
vides that eight hours must be actu-
ally spent by the miners at the banks,
with the exception of a half hour for
lunch. An employer working the men
longer than this is guilty of a INSIDE
meanor for his offense. Also the miner
who works more than eight hours is
guilty of misdemeanor, punishable by
fine or imprisonment, or both. This
section is a concession to the union
men. The whole measure is a compro-
mise between the mine owners and
miners.

shares of Osceola stock will be dropped
and the courts will be asked to vacate
the injunction granted a year ago.
1t is rumored at Northport that the
smelter will close down within a few
weeks, as the lie Roi mine has closed
