tees, GosthaIs, Garfield, Pinchot

sion at The Hague.

delight and was especially pleased
with the selection OF Senator Root as
the permanent representative OF the
United States at The Hague
Toward the end OF his lecture he
made special reference TO the gift as
providing the means of making real
progress in bringing about the results
which Mr.. Carnegie desires to
achieve"
But remember" he said warningly,
that the ultimate worth depends on
the good practical sense, the judgment
and ability Of the men who admins
TERN the fund, succeed in translat-
ing the theory into action"

cries Of government into practice. or

House Of Representatives,
Washington, d. c.,
March 10, 1910.

My Dear Mr.. Barrett: -AcknoWl-
eedging your recent letter indicating
your support of six named legislative
issues and inquiring my views con-
corning them, I have the honor to
advise you that l do not understand
your letter to commit you to the sup
port of any particular bill, or to So
licit my support of any particular
bill, but that you favor, and urge me
to favor, certain ends and results in
legislation, the details of which re-
main to be worked out and are not
suggested by you. I say this, because
you do not advise me as to how you
would suppress gambling in farm
products, or as to what laws you
think should be enacted further to
restrict foreign immigration, or as to
the amounts or purposes of addition
al appropriations toward agricul-
tural projects; nor do you give me
any details or description Of the par
ticular Postal Banks, or the particu-
lar Parcels-Post, that you favor.
Your letter being thus quite gen
eral, it seems to me that about all |
can say to you is that l am now, and
have ever been during my service
here, ,solicitous and DESTROYS of intel
igenfly and faithfully representing
and serving the real interests of the
people who have honored me with a
seat in the House of Representatives
and that l now favor, and have al
ways favored, all constitutional and
proper legislation having for it's end
and aim the improvement. of and as
siStance to the great agricultural
classes, both in and out of my Dis
trict. | beg further to say that it
Will be my pleasure at all times to
consult and cooperate with you, as
with all good citizens, in the matter
of proposing and urging legislation
of this kind, and that in so far as the
issues named by you look to the
enactment of such legislation they
now have, and have had, my sup
port.
To be more specific, and for the
purpose of aiding so far as I can in
bringing about desired results, [
would say that am now. and have
always been, opposed to gambling in
farm products; that l now and have
always favored stringent legislation
regulating and properly restraining
foreign immigration; that I now and
have always favored liberal appro-
priations toward agricultural pro-
jects''; that l now and have always
opposed great Central Bank in this
country.
In reference to Postal Savings
Banks, as | at present view the prop
Osition, l am opposed to them. l do
not know, in the first place, of any
constitutional warrant for the Gov
eminent to enter the banking bust
ness-which fact alone is sufficient
to condemn the proposition. In the
next place, l am more concerned in

Many Will Try
to Pass Rapids
of Niagara
Motor Boat Pilots and Enthusiasts
Not Daunted by Whirlpool's
Dangers.

BUFFALO, N Y, July 2S--when on Sep
TENDER II next number OF motorboats at
tempt TO pass through the Whirlpool rap
ids of the Niagara they will have embarked
on the most novel; If not the most dan
gerous, contest ever arranged among small
craft. Yet this fact has in no wise abated
the eagerness of several pilots and a
greater number of power boat owners, all
OF them DESTROYS of winning the S10O0 cash
prize and 500 cup that are offered for first
prize.
1t was nearly two centuries after the
French priest, Hennepin had written home
of the wonders of Niagara that anyone is
known to have essayed to pass through
the rapids in boat, or even take chances
on the water above the falls other than
with suicidal intent The first boat to
pass through the rapids from below the
falls to Lewiston was the old Maid of the
Mist But the success of Captain Joel Rob-
inson and his crew in taking the Maid
through the turbulent waters did not ap-
pear to be any encouragement to other
navigators to follow his example.
For period of years no attempt was
made to traverse the rapids in q boat, nor
was there any particular reason, other
than for notoriety's sake, why the trip
Inc river steamboats, OF
two or three decades ago forbade the at
tempt being made. and the dangers that
the rapids presented to even modern steam
craft with their heavy engines precluded
any very frequent effort to lay a course
through Niagara's outlet. lie remained for
the offer of the prizes already mentioned
to bring the motorboat forth as possible
successful contender against the elements.
The. conditions of the race include the
following: Boats shall be Of decked or
closed types, and cockpits, IL fitted shall
be of self-bailing type. Deck directions
shall not exceed sixteen inches in height
above decks, and openings in them are
not to be greater than twelve inches. Ig-
milton systems must be securely fastened
and protected from water. No restrictions
are placed on the number of the crew
Contestants will be started not less than
ten minutes apart, the boat finishing in
the shortest elapsed time to win.
The course is from the Maid OF the Mist
landing on the Canadian side of the river,
or some such point above the bridges as
may be decided upon later, down to and
around a turn about one-half mile below
Queenston dock, thence to Pitts dock at
Lewiston.
