under the leadership of Chairman
Tawney (Rep., MIMI, Smith
(Rep., Iowa., Sherley (Dem., Ky)
and Fitzgerald (Dem., N. "
The beginning of this agitation,
the president says, was a 5000
word letter sent to the Chicago In
teri Ocean in 1904 by l.. w. Bus
hey, private secretary to Speaker
Cannon. At the time this letter
assailing the secret service was
published, President Roosevelt
points out, these government de-
. tectives weer working on the
great land frauds in the West and
aiding in the beef trust investiga-
ton.
Action Against Justice.
"But all of this" continues the
message, "is of insignificant i'm
portance compared with the main,
the real issue. This issue is SIM
ply, Does congress desire that the
government shall have at it's dis
posal the most efficient instrument
for the detection of criminals and
the prevention and punishment of
crime, or does it not?
The action of the house last
May was emphatically an action
against the interest of justice and
against the interest of law-abiding
people, and in it's effect of benefit
only to lawbreakers. Is the house
now willing to remedy the
wrong?"
The president quotes from a
letter he sent to Speaker Cannon
April 80, protesting against inter
ference with the secret service, in
which he said: "There is no more
foolish cutlery than this against
Spies only criminals need fear
our detectives"
Secret Service Results.
The message reviews the opera
lions of the secret service men
since 1901. They uncovered "a
system for the fraudulent acquisi-

ton and fencing of public lands.
In this work one of the detectives
was assassinated. In Nebraska
sixty men were indicated for land
frauds, and of 80 so far tried, %
have been convicted. The gov
eminent has secured the return of
100000 acres of grazing land
and of 1000 acres of mineral land
in Colorado. 1t is suing for $780,
900 additional acres.
The secret service men obtained
hundreds of convictions of con-
spirators who sold fraudulent ma
turalization papers. They located
in Canada Greene and Gaynor,
who were implicated in big gov
eminent contract frauds, and ar
rested them.
In Name of Justice.
81 most earnestly ask, in the
name of good government and de-
cent administration in the name
of honesty and for the purpose of
bringing to justice violators of the
federal laws wherever they may be
found, whether in public or priv
ate life, that the action taken by
the house last year be reversed"
continues the president.
81 also urge that the secret SER
vice be placed where it properly
belongs, and made a bureau in the
department of justice, as the chief
of the secret service has repeated
ly requested; but whether this is
done or not, it shrould be explicit
ly provided that the secret service
can be used to detect and punish
crime wherever it is found"
