Boston, Sept 14.-President Taft.
I'm addressing banquet of the Boston
Chamber of Commerce tonight. said he
was going 10 take his western trip
because he believed it would enable
him To be a much more efficient rresi-
dent and make him better acquainted
with the needs of that great section.
He also outlined some of the matters
to be submitted to the next congress
Taft's Address.
Il am on the eve of beginning a
journey of $1,000 miles in length.
said Mr.. Taft. (which will enable me
to see tens and hundreds of thou
sands of my fellow citizens, and en-
able them, | hope. to see me. Occa-
sionally | hear query as to why |
should start off on such a trip and
what particular good does it do To
anybody. Well. it certainly is not
going tn be Il pleasure trip. although
| shall enjoy 1t. 1t will involve much
hard work and a great deal of mental
effort to think of things tn say. and
To say them simply and clearly, so
that they can be understood.
on the other hand. il will certainly
give me a very much more accurate
impression as to the views of the peo-
pie in the sections | visit. 1t will
bring closely to me the needs of par
ticular sections so far as national
legislation Is concerned. and | believe
it will make me Il wiser man and a
better public officer.
Il ought to be able t. explain to
the people some of the difficulties of
government and some nf the prob
lens for solution from the standpoint
of executive and the legislator as
distinguished from that of the honest
but irresponsible critics. 'fhe per-
sonal touch between the people and
the men To whom they temporarily
delegate power. of course. conduces TO
a better understanding between them.
Time for Resolutions.
This il the second week in Septem-
ber. We are all ending our vacations
and going home. This is the time of
year rather than the first of she cal
enGar year when goa1 resolutions

of the congress in December one

try 50 far as they may be relieved
by congressional legislation AMI at
tempt To state what that legislation
should be.
Our chairman has made some refer
ence to the number Of subjects to
which the attention of congress may
he well directed. In the first place,
there is the monetary situation. While
it Is probable that the VreeIand bill
would aid Us in case of another finan-
ciaf crash. il il certain that our bank

least of all those who are clear

The matter has been referred by
congress to a monetary commission,
which has becn studying the financial
and banking systems af the great goy-
ernments Of Europe. and has embodied
and will publish interesting and at

CONVERSATIONS of Mr.. Aldrich. chair

commission is for some sort nf ar
rangement for a central bank of is
sue which shall control the reserve
and exercise "A power to meet and

from time to time will come in the
circulating medium of the country and

Two Principles.
MIR. Aldrich states that there are
two Indispensable requirements in any
plan involving a central bank of is
sue. The one is that the control OF
the monetary system shall be kept
free from Wall street is first, and the
other that it shall not be manipulated
for political purposes. These are two
principles to which we can all sub

Il am told that Mr.. Aldfieh viii

Il cannot too strongly approve of
this proposal. Mr. Aldrlch, who Is
the leader OF the senate, and certain
ly one of the ahlest statesmen in
financial matters in either house. has
been regarded with deep suspicion by
many people, especially in the west.

Dr.. conweiI's Societies.

IN an interview in the Christian En-
deavor Times DR.. Russell H. Conwell
of Philadelphia, the successful pastor
Of ole of the largest congregations in
America, speaking of Christian En-
deavor in his church. says: 1--WE have
no fewer than fourteen Christian En-
deavor societies. They are doing a
real practical service, meeting not only
for prayer and song, but for definite
work. For example, one society de-
votes itself entirely TO local mission,
another to helping drunkards, third
to orphanage work, and so on The
church backs the societies up, and the
latter are doing valuable work in
creating an interest in the various OBJ
5ects and thus getting the church as
whole interested. 1t is entirely due to
Christian Endeavor that these agen-
cies are thus taken up. I am con-
WINGED that cur societies must work
along this line if we are to keep alive.
Mere meetings are not enough when
there is such vast field in which to
work"

UNDER SEALED ORDERS.

UNDER SEALED ORDERS.
Out she she swung from her moorings,
And over the harbor bar;
As the moon was slowly rising
She faded from sight afar,
And we traced her cleaning canvas
Ry the twinkling evening star.
None knew the port she sailed for,
Nor whittier her course would be;
Her future course was shrouded
In silence and mystery;
She was sailing under sealed orders,
To be opened out at sea-
So souls, cut off from moorings
Go sailing into the night,
Darkness before and around them,
With scarce a glimmer Of light;
They are acting under "sealed orders,
And sailing by faith, not sight.
Keeping the course Of duty
Through good and evil report,
They shall ride the storms out safely,
Be the passage long or short;
For the ship that carries Gods orders
Shall anchor at last in port.
