up to the present at least, the presi-
dent and the leaders on the hill are

The president has had submitted to

bill prepared by Representative Mar

ther strengthen the governments con-

as drawn, applies to corporations car
rying fuel and food supplies. and
states that they shall be granted fed

such license, it will be necessary
for them to certify that they are not
monopolies and not overcapitalized.
The bill also provides a pure food
standard for the supplies to be trans
ported from state to state.
The consideration of this bill is
taken as further evidence that the
president is considering every means
of securing a more comprehensive
control and regulation Of interstate
corporations, in the hope that he may

a steerage passenger had attempted
to assault Mr.. Roosevelt, was circu-

pondent is able to state positively that
no such incident occurred.
Mr.. Roosevelt came ashore at 10

Governments Attitude.
At the same time the government
believes that it is the duty of Cana
da, as the dominion advances in pop
ulation and wealth, to make a more
liberal outlay for national and conse-
quently for imperial defence. The
general principle endorsed in the

ties and on the advice of experienced

always to the principle of local self
government which to quote the words

dunn of 1902. "has proved 80 great

unity"
Ready to Send Her Last Man.
That Canada is prepared to give her
last dollar and send her last man in
defence of the empire in case of need
and is now working to the end of CO.
operating along the wisest and most
permanent lines in a uniform scheme
of imperial defence, will be the mes
sage of loyal support that the premier
will send to Great Britain tomorrow
through the medium of his speech in
parliament. In regard to the military
matters the scheme has already been
worked out through the organization
of the Canadian militia on the same
model as obtains in the imperial army.
The recent creation of an imperial
general staff was a further step in
this direction.
A First Necessity.
AS to the details of naval plan Of
development for Canada in co-opera-
tion with the imperial naval pro-
gram, neither the government nor the
opposition is vet prepared to say
definitely just what should be done. A
start has already been made with a
Canadian naval militia. and this will
undoubtedly be further developed in
the near future. Trained officers
and men are a first necessity for a
Canadian navy. Another step along
the line of relieving Great Britain of
part Of the burden of naval defence
was taken some time ago when Can
ada took over the charge of the naval
dry docks at Halifax and Esquimalt.
The next step may possibly be the
beginning Of the construction by Can
ada Of some of the smaller vessels in
cident and necessary to a large navy,
to work in harmony with a central

same time would. in the event of
war, furnish necessary adjuncts to

adtan waters. These are, of course,
only suggestions as to the possible
course that may be pursued. What
ever action the government will ev-
entually take will depend. as has been
said, on the advice Of experts and at
ter due consideration with the i'm
perial authorities.
