OF Agriculture James r. Wilson has
recognized the ability or J. w. Grfgg.
of Goodell, as a breeder of deer, and,
as a representative OF the government
he Is now at Columbia. Mont, to de-
liver a lecture upon the breeding and
hybridfzing OF these favorite animals.
1t Is not generally known but Mr..

Washington. Jan. 22.-That Secre-
tary Wilson will remain IN the cabinet.
despite the Taft policy to retain as few,
people as possible from the Roosevelt
circle is now accepted as much more
likely than a fortnight ago.
Secretary Wilson Is receiving an
unprecedented Endorsement from the
agricultural and commercial interests
of the country. Resolutions and letters
are fairly swapping President elect
Taft. insisting that Mr.. Wilson be re-
tained in his present position.
The fact that nobody has developed.
any real strength rs a candidate
dagainst Wilson is working strongly In
the ~secretary's favor. The theory that.
it Is not possible to beat somebody
with nobody may decide for him.
The activity for him comes from all
parts of the country Democrats and!
republicans alike AVE written hum
-dreds of letters to Taft and almost the,
Lentire Senate has lined up with a Wig
eorous Endorsement Of his retention.

Gould when he was In sore need of 20
cents, and I knew him when he had
$50, 00O, 900. / I'M confident he was hap

John Burroughs, naturalist and scient-
list, in a talk on the Making OF
Money" Mr.. Burroughs is spending a
few days here as a guest OF Mrs. HARE,
a wealthy woman who is studying
poetry at Cornell.
Among other things Mr.. Burroughs
said were: II do not believe in the doc
trine attributed TO John d. Rockefeller
that If you want to make your wife
happy all you have to do Is to give
her plenty Of money. I do not believe
the possession of none and happiness
are synonymous. II Mr.. Rockefeller
gives out this doctrine he Is making a
declaration that l believe American
women will resent. They want love

SAM WILL
GIVE LIBERIA AID.
African Colony Is Having It's
Troubles With Native
"Roughnecks."

Washington, Jan 22-President Roose-
veit sent the following message to con-
gress on the Liberian situation:
II very earnestly hope that the recon-
mendation of the secretary OF war will be
approved and that congress will grant the.
$1,000 to pay the expense of a commission
who shall go to Liberia, to examine into
the situation, confer with the officers OF
the IdberLan government and with the rep
resentatives Of other governments actually
present In Monrovia and report relations
as the specific action on the part OF the
government of the United States most apt
to render effective relief to the republic
OF Liberia under the present critical cir
cumstances.
The relations of the United States to-
Liberia are such as to makei II an imperaI
tive duty for us to do all in our power to
help the little republic, which is struggling
against such adverse conditions. / very
earnestly hope that the action proposed
will be taken"
In his letter to the president, Secretary
Root states that In June last, commission
ers from Liberia applied to the United
States for a guarantee Of the territorial
existence Of Liberia. On. being convinced
that such was impracticable the commits
sioners requested that the United States
should lend to Liberia ofhcers or AID In
the conduct of its administration and
should confer with other governments,
particularly with Great Britain, with 81
view of ascertaining how best to render
assistance and to give Liberia the moral
support which would result from evidence
Of interest In her welfare on the part of
the United States.
After conferences with the commission
ers and Booker T. Washington and rep
resentatives Of the United States in Lii
IBERIA the state department concluded LIZ
IBERIA is very much in need OF assistance,
that the United States can help her sub
stantially and that 1t Is the country's duty
to do so.
Mr.. Root says hat the condition of Lis
IBERIA is really serious. The 10000 or 5000
civilized negroes, mostly descendants of
~colonists from the United States, find it
difficult to control the native tribes or to
conduct their own government in accord
ance with modern requirements.
