TAFT's STAND DECISIVE.
Full Statement of What President Told
Eriahtened Conaressmen.

Frightened congressman.
Washington, July 17.-All doubt as
to where President Taft stands with
regard to the downward revision of the
tariff was swept away when a state
ment was given out at the White
House setting forth in detail what the
president had to say to the twenty
three republican members of congress
who called to protest against putting
raw materials on the free list.
The president in this statement de-
clared that the republican party is
committed to a downward revision;
that he has never had any other idea
of the Chicago platform and that he
personally has promised downward
revision to the people.
This statement is interpreted in some
quarters here as a direct notification
to the conferees on the tariff bill that
if the measure they finally agree upon
does not constitute a material reduc-
tion in specific duties the president will
exercise his power Of veto.
Dictated in the third person the
statement concluded with this final
word Of the presidents attitude as out
lined to his callers:
'tHe felt strongly the call of the
country for a downward revision with
in the limits of the protective principle
and ne hoped To De able 10 respond 10
that call as he heard it, as we'll in the
interests Of the party as of the coun-
try.''
The Presidents Statement.
The statement follows:
'A1r. Young Of Michigan opposed free
ore; Mr.. Mondell opposed free coal or
reciprocity with Canada and free
hides; each on the ground that the pol
icy would injure the interests of his
state, and a discussion was partici-
pated in by other representatives who
urged that the doctrine of free raw
materials was not republican doc
trine.
1.-THE president replied that he was
not committed to the principle of free
raw material, but that he was COM
/. mitted to the principle of downward
revision Of the tariff. which he had
promised, and that he was obliged to
look at the matter not from the stand
point Of any particular district, but
from the standpoint Of the whole coun-
try, and also from the standpoint Of
responsibility for the entire republican
party. He said the question in each
case was question Of fact, to be de-
termined by evidence, as to whether

A. H. Forbush, Boston Broker Meets

WAS TRYING OUT MACHINE

Brattleboro, Aug. 21.-As the re-
suit of an automobile accident at
Spofford Lake, ~ H., yesterday after
noon A. H. Forbush. a Boston broker,
lies unconscious at the Brattleboro
Memorial hospital with but slight
chance for recovery.
Mr. Forbush came to Brattleboro
to inspect the six cylinder Ford auto
mobile owned by ]. H. Ullery and
which Mr.. Ullery had advertised for
sale. Yesterday they started out
to test the machine going to Chester
field and Spofford Lake. about 10
miles from here
Instead OF returning directly to
Brattleboro they stopped at tae cot
tage of Linn ID. Taylor of Brattleboro
on the lake shore. Mr.. Ullery left the
engine running at the neutral and
got out of the machine to speak to
some one at the Taylor cottage and
Mr.. Forbush, who claimed to be able
to run the car, said that ne thought
he would take a short run up the road
turn around and pick up Mr.. Ullery
on his way back.
Before Mr.. Ullery could utter
protest Mr.. Forbush had started the
automobile and was travelling along
the road about eight miles an hour.
When he had proceeded for about 20
rods the onlookers saw tae machine
suddenly swerye and barely grazing
large pine tree it tore over the
bank and dropping to the beach rolled
over into the lake.
Several people removed the ma
chine from the Frustrated man and
he was carried to Mr.. Taylor's ga
rage where the doctors worked over
him for two hours without restoring
him to consciousness. He was badly
bruised and although his neck was
not broken it is feared that his brain
and head was injured so badly that
he cannot live.

ATTITUDE OF THE CHURCH
A Priests View of the Liquor Cues
ton and Attendant Evils

The following is published by re
quest;
AT a recent meeting of the Catho-
lie Total Abstinence Union of Ameri
ca in Chicago 5000 members met In
the auditorium and procession of "a
temperance organizations marched
through the streets. The official at
titude of the Roman Catholic church
on the question was voiced by the
Rev James NJ. Reardon of st. Paul in
the following language:
For this reason the fathers OF the
plenary councils of Baltimore exhort-
ed pastors and implored them TO make
every possible effort to eXterminate
the vice of intemperance by warning
their iiocks against its subtle dangers,
by admonishng them to keep away
from saloons, by crying out fearlessly
against drunkenness and whatever
contributes to it. by preaching in sea
son and out of season in the words of
the apostle: Drunkards shall not pos
sess the kingdom of God.
In this warfare for the honor OF
the church the laity are exhOrted to
Join in order that strong public sen
timent may be engendered against al
coholic Indulgence, to that end that
all Christians may be filled with zeal
against this vice and for the love of
God and OF country endeavor TO root
out this pestilential evil.
Furthermore while the selling of
liquor is not declared TO be unlawful
in itself, Catholics engaged in It are
admonished to choose a more becom-
ing way of making a living and If
they do not heed the warning voice
OF the church in this matter but per-
sist in dispensing alcoholic beverages
TO the public, they expose themselves
to grave personal danger besides CON
stituting themselves occasions of sin
TO others. For their own sakes, there
fore, as well as for the spiritual good
of their patrons. the church forbids
them to sell drink TO minors and to
those who they foresee will abuse it.
They must, says the third plenary,
-of Baltimore, keep their saloons clos
ed on Sunday and never allow bias
phemy cursing or obscene language.
Saloonkeepers should know that If,
through their culpable neglect or Co
operation religion is brought into con
tempt or men brought TO ruin, there
is an avenger in heaven who will sure
ly exact from them the severest pen
alties.'
