1t Shews 1909 Legislature Cost
S651,65O More Than 1907.

High Taxes Unexplained.

A big surprise was sprung when State
Auditor James NJ. Nation sent to Gov
ernor Stubs a detailed statement
showing the exact list of appropriations
by the 1909 session of the legislature.
This statement proved that the appro-
priations for 1909 were exactly $751;
650.49 greater than the appropriations
by the legislature of 1907
The surprise came from the fact that
Governor Stubbs has claimed all the
way through his controversy with SEN
ator Charles Curtis that the appropria-
tlons this year We're practically the
same as they were two years ago. He
has issued some statements which were
given out to prove this fact.
In this issue of the State Journal is
an article by William Allen White in
defense of Stubbs in higher taxes
controversy in which the noted EN-
poria editor declares that the cost of
the 1909 legislature was no more than
that of 1907.
One feature of this startling state
ment is that the legislature of 1907
which Stubbs dubbed as the Curtis
legislature is the one that donated
5000, 900 less from the pockets of the
citizens of the state than the present
administration.
An examination of the detailed state
ment by the state auditor reveals the
fact that the increases come altogether
diHong the uIIlillStrdlloIl men dl the
state house. All of the big increases
came fitting through the windows of
the attorney general the bank COM
missioner and the governor For in
stance. Bank Commissioner Dolley had
his appropriation raised from $4,000 to
$9S, 900. The state auditor, state treas
urer and secretary of state had very
small increases.
The educational institutions lead with
half of the increase, the State univer-
Sity having an increase of over 100000
and the Agricultural school with $3.50,
600.
Appropriations for the different depart
ments by the legislatures of 1907 and 1909:

the American league champions
have been playing regularly on Sun

Camnitz, who has just recovered
from an attack of throat trouble was
selected by Clarke as the twirler for
today's contest. Maddox and Glib

Manager Jennings of Detroit re-

the situation and he and his men
came on the field with a jauntN air.
The infield worked smoothly in
practice and showed no signs of an
other blow up such as marked the
fifth inning of yesterdays game.
Jennings had Donovan. Summers
and Willett warming up but Dono-

Both received orders. which did not pro-

Both were responsible for taking the
train outside of its protected territory
and will both suffer the same conse-

An official investigation of the wreck
will be made within day or two and
at that time, the responsibility for the
wreck will be officially determined. The
only punishment by the railroad COM

TARIFF VETO PREDICTED.
Unless the Aldrich Bill is Ma
terially Changed in Confer

ence.
Washington Dispatch to New York World.
President Taft will veto the
kind of tariff bill Senator Al
drich is making. Unless very,
very important reductions are
made when the measure reaches
conference the Chief Executive
will send the bill back to the
Congress without his approval.
President Taft will not be di-
rectly responsible for any au-
tnorized statement, but he has
expressed himself 80 clearly and
forcibly to a few of his friends
that there need be no doubt as
to his attitude.
For a time those most inter-
ested in a personal way in the
career of Mr.. Taft feared that
he would let things drift without
interference, and when the time
came for him to act be forced by
commercial and industrial pres
sure to attach his signature to
a tariff which he did not approve.
Their anxiety is rapidly passing.
They now are assured that he
will reject a bill which in its i'm
portant provisions he does not
approve and which will disap-
point the country. They are
convinced that he does not fear
the business consequences OF a
veto, as the commercial interests
will get along just as we'll under
the Dingley law as under a law
not materially different from the
Dingley law.
There are two things which
President Taft must consider of
vital Importance when the bill
comes to him:
First, if there is no real revision
downward now the country will
instruct the Congressman, Re-
publican and Democratic, who
are elected next time, to take il
up. It is revise now or tackle il
again.
Second, if President Taft sur.
renders abjectly now to the AL
drich oligarchy in the Senate
the next House surely will be
Democratic, and Mr.. Taft woulC
be so weakened in the West tina
it would make his denomination
doubtful.
, Senator Aldrich is convinced
that he can continue his presen
arbitrary course in the interes
of the American capitalist an(
against the American housewife
; and that when the time comes t
deal with Mr.. Taft he can b
talked around to the Aldrich wa
of thinking. The Rhode Islam
: Senator has misjudged his man
=, This is not the first time he ha
fought it out with Senator Al
drich, and he is quite willing t
: do so again if necessary.

SECOND DEATH.
Friend of Courier with the Mes
sage to President Taft Dies
from Injuries.

Reading, Penn, Sept. 10. William
Brown of Philadelphia, n of the occu-
pants of the automobile which was
wrecked near here yesterday afternoon
while bearing a message from Presi-
dent Taft to the management of the
Alaska Yukon exposition, died at the
Reading Hospital this morning, making
the second death as the result of the
accident. He suffered a ruptured spleen
and internal hemorrhages, and it was
apparent from the first, that he had
little chance of recovery.
Brown was a friend of H. l.. Buckley,
who died Immediately after the acct
dent. The bodies of the two men will
be sent to their former homes. Coro-
ner Strasser is making a thorough in
vestigation, and will hold an inquest
early this week. He says that the ac-
cident was not caused by the bursting
of any of the tires or the breaking OF
the axles. New York Tribune.
