Says Multi Millionaire, as Such, is Not

MAY BE DANGEROUS CRIMINAL
If He Gained His Fortune by Service,
Well and Good.
HIS HEIRS DIDN'T EARN IT
Nation should Impose Heavily Graded
Tax on Their Inheritance--Espe-
ciaIly should such Tax
Hit Absenteea.

NEW YORK, July l5.-The Outlook today
has an article by Theodore Roosevelt en-
titled, Give Me Neither Poverty Nor
Riches" 1t says in part;
1T is to be wished that some OF those
who preach and practice a gospel of mere
materialism and greed and who speak as
II the heaping up OF wealth by the COM
munity or by the individual was in itself
the llfe-all and end-all of life, would learn
from tho most widely read and oldest of
books that true wisdom which teaches that
it is well to have neither great poverty
nor great riches.
THE movement which has become so
strong during the last few years TO secure
on behalf of the nation both an adequate
supervision Of and an effective taxation of
vast fortunes, so far as their business
use is concerned, is a healthy movement.
1t aims to replace sullen discomfort, pes
simism and evil preparation for revolu-
ton, by an aggressive, healthy, determine
ton to get to the bottom of our troubles
and remedy them.
THE millionaire Is not per Sc a
healthy development of this country. II
his fortune rests on basis Of wrongdoing,
he is a far more dangerous criminal than
any Of the ordinary types Of criminals can
possibly be- II his fortune is the result Of
great service rendered. well and good he
deserves respect and reward for such serv-
ice-although we must remember to pay
our homage to the service itself and not
to the fortune, which is the mere reward
of the service-but when his fortune is
passed on to some one else who has not
rendered the service, then the nation
should impose a heavily graded progress
sive inheritance tax. a singularly wise and
unobjectionable kind of a tax 1t should
be a plaything If the tax bore heaviest on

WASHINGTON, July 15-President Taft
has indicated to the confereors on the
tariff bill that he wishes hides, oil and
coal placed on the free list, and material
reduction made in the lumber schedule.
He has also declared that he wishes other
material reductions made in the schedules
dealing with the necessaries OF life.
The senate conferees have suggested to
the president that he send personally for
senators interested in high schedules, and
induce them to release the senate conferees
from pledges which the latter have made
to stand by the higher rates BY securing
a release for the conferees from such
promises, 1t is represented, the president
can aid them materially in securing re-
vision downward.
The president has acted on the sug-
gestion, and has discussed the matter with
several senators interested. SO far, it
is said, he has made little progress toward
inducing them to release the senate con-
ferees.
Some Friction with COnferees.
Slight but unmistakeable evidences OF
friction between the president and the
conferees on the tariff bill have become
apparent.
A last effort by the conferees to induce
the president to consent to striking out the
corporation tax amendment failed. The
president not only told Senator Aldrich and
Chairman Payne that he would not with
draw from his position in favor OF this
tax, but he was assured of sufficient votes
to keep the provision in the bill and assure
it's adoption in both houses. The president
reiterated this position to several OF his
callers today.
Pains were taken at the White House
| m.
did not send for Messrs. Aldrich and Payne
on the occasion of last nights conference.
The conference, 1t was said at the White
| House, had been sought by the legislative
| leaders.
AIdrich In Satisfied.
Senator Aldrich, 1t is related, was more
! pleased than otherwise with the presidents S
decision. Being already committed to the
corporation tax, he was anxious that the
house conferees should understand that
this tax is purely administrative meas
ure and they must take 1t as such, and
! not as q concession to the senate.
Excellent progress on schedules was made
! by the conferees today a large number Of
differences in chemicals, earthenware
metals and agricultural products having
been adjusted.
The more important items in these
schedules, such as paints and products OF
lead, iron ore and other raw materials in
metals and barley were passed over. Tho
decisions in regard to other paragraphs
were tentative, and therefore were not
made public. There was no night session
OF the conferees.
1t was announced today that Representa-
tive Calderhead OF Kansas, who has been
reported as favoring many OF the senate
schedules, is working in hearty co-opera
ton with Mr.. Payne in the effort to have
the house schedules stand.

Not Blood Disease-Cured by Oil of
Wintergreen Compound.
For many years eczema was sup
posed to be a blood disease and was
enormously treated as such, but now

zema Is only a skin disease and must
be cured through the skin, The emf

mis-. first discovered the eczema
germ and his discovery was quickly
taken up In both Germany and
France.
To kill the eczema germ and at the
same time heal the skin, DR.. Dennis
compounded oil Of wintergreen, thy
mol, glycerine, etc. The remedy is
"a liquid. not a mere salye. hence 1t
sinks right into the pores of the
skin. Washing with this oil OF WIN
tergreen compound seems to take the
itch away at once; soon the scales
drop away and the disease disappear.
