ROOSEVELT Stops OVER.
Doenn't Know Anything OF Socialism,
Sayk Prof. small.

Chicago, March 30.-"The odore Roos-
eyelt Stops over when he talks about
socialism. He has no idea what social
ism is and he goes outside his province
when he speaks or writes on the SUBJ
ject," Ia the declaration of Professor
Albion w. Small. of the University OF
Chicago.
Prof. Smalrs criticism refers direct
ly to the article by Mr.. Roosevelt on
socialism, published in last weeks is
sue of The Outlook.
Roosevelt declares that socialists
put no value on any but the material
side of life," continues the professor.
That reminds me of Mrs. Hetty
Green calling Jane Adams a material
list. l am no socialist myself, but !
think 1t is a mistake for those who are
not socialists to misrepresent the So
cialistic doctrines because IL gives
those of that faith the idea that their
opponents are not sincere"

Compiled.


Washington. March 30.-During the
Sixtieth Congress. 1897 special pension
acts were passed by Congress, accord
ing to a statement just complied by
Senator McCumber. chairman Of the
Senate Committee on Pensions.
The result OF this legislation has been
to increase the payments by about s1,-
10000
Since 1881 there have been granted
by special acts 2s.3a4 original pensions
and IT, 500 veterans were granted an
Increase of pensions. all Of which have
an annual race vaiue Of about s5,258.-
600. As many Of these pensioners were
formerly on the rolls at q lower rate,
this figure does not represent the to-
tai increase.
Since the close of the civil war In
1865 there has been paid in pensions
the sum Of $3.654.653.365 and the cost
of maintai lining pension agencies and
administration of the pension bureau
has been $112.S52.477.

Chicago, March 30.-Two bills which
are expected to precipitate bitter
fight between the liquor interests and
the foes OF the saloon will be intro
duced in the general assembly this
week at the instance of the anti-sa-
loon league.
lrOne of the measures permits prohi-
bition territory to be created in resi-

ton with the city clerk. signed by a
majority OF the voters of the district.
No action by the city council is neces-
sary at present. -
The other bill Is the result Of the
difficulty experienced In enforcing the
law in the 1000 Illinois townships made
dry last year under the new local OPP
ton law.
The proposed act declares war on

cult than at present to procure convic-

raid to be used as evidence. Hereto
fore, the probition forces have had to
