New York, Sept. In reply to
the editorial in the New York Even
ing Post recently which attacked him
and charged him with playing in with
the corporations by making them pay
money into his campaign funds, Col
onel Roosevelt today in the Outlook
declares the Posts's assertions are ab-
solutely false, and that the editor who
wrote the article is "practiced in every
form OF mendacity." He said: "In the
struggle for honest politics there is
no more place for the liar than for
the thief. In a movement designated
to end the theif's domination little
good can be derived from the liars
assistance" The Post editorially de-
Tended the old guard of New York
republicans.
In this connection the colonel says:
I'm the article in which the New
York Post defends those who are at
present in control of the republican
party in New York and whom it has
affected to oppose in the past, the
Post. through whatever editor was
personally responsible for writing the
article, is practiced in every form of
mendacity. AS far as l am concerned
every man who visited the White
House did so openly, Hartman as wen
as the others. l took no money from
Hartman either secretly or openly TO
buy votes or for any other purpose.
Whoever wrote the article knew that
this charge is a foul and baseless lie"

New laws regulating the probation

WILD HORSE RACE WILL Be

OF all the mirth provoking stunts
ever invented for the amusement Of

ton. has them all faded" This. at
least is the opinion of Mark Moor
house, who has just returned from
the frontier exhibition in Cheyenne
His description of the event which
was the climax of the big show in that
city and which in like manner will be
the climax of the Roundup, Is
enough to make the clodest blooded
individual fairly bubble with enthusi-
asm.

wild and untamed horses are here seen
at their best and the immense throng
is kept in an uproar of laughter.
In whatever direction the wild

the air. landing with thud some few
feet away, while his erstwhile mount

Some few of the animals get headed
in the right direction and by energetic
work on the part Of the riders with

fairly even track around the course.
Never do they all finish, however.
for many will get to within a few feet

CENSURING BALLINGER
New York Senator En- Route from
South Hampton to New York-ic
Must BE Kept from Voting Which
May Be Difficult Task.

New York, Sept. with Senator
Root en- route from South Hampton to
New York, politicians who are con-
cocting the scheme to oust Secretary
Ballinger by getting the investigating
committee to censure him will have
to act with considerable speed. To
get the committee to censure Ballin-
ger 1t will be necessary to keep Root
from voting. Senator Crane, it is
said. used his influence with Con-
gresham Mccall of Massachusetts, so
that Mccall will furnish the necessary
vote against a white wash report
by the Investigators. However, poll
ticians declare that Cranes scheme
may not work, because Root, though
not present at the last days of the
Ballinger hearing, still has the testi-
mony and arguments transcribed.

Albany, y. Y, Sept. 1.-Several
statutes of great importance, passed
at the last session of the New York
state legislature, went into effect to-
day. Among the new laws are the
employers liability and compulsory
compensation statute, one of the most
sweeping labor acts ever passed by
any legislature; the Agnew-Perkins
anti-gambling law, designed to put an
end to all race track betting, oral or
otherwise, and to make officials of
race tracks responsible for violations
OF its provisions; law regulating the
condust of private banks, aimed pri-
marily for the protection of immi-
grants. who are often made the VIC
itms of wild cat bankers, and a bill
placing all the telephone and tele-
graph companies operating in the state
under the jurisdiction of the Public
Service commission. and increasing
the powers of the commission over
all gas and electric companies.
Under the new labor law. an en-
ployer must compensate his workman
for injury, no matter who is at fault.
Tf~ act was passed by the legislature
in compliance with the recommends
ticns of the Wainwright commission,
which spent months investigating cas-
es of accidents suffered by those en-
gagged in dangerous employments and
instances of refusal of employers TO
grant any financial relief.
Heretofore a workman who eX-
perienced a disabling accidental bod
lily injury while in the employ of any
person or corporation could get no
damages until he proved before court
and jury that the hurt was due to the
negligence or fault of the employer
and without contributory negligence
upon the part of the employed.
Practically all that was required
oe an employer to escape penalty for
accident was that he provided a
reasonably safe place" and gave
due consideration" of the kind of
work to be done. He was supposed

act honesty from business men; on
the other hand, you brand yourselves
as feols or as hypocrites If you say
that the corporation owner, or the
employer is always the dishonest
man, and the poor man never. that it
is only the wealthy man who corrupts
the politician and never the politician
who blackmails the corporation.
Any man in his senses knows that
there are plenty of corporations in
this country who prosper by bribing
legislatures just as they prosper by
swindling the public; and any man
In his senses ought to know, in addi-
tion, that there are pleYty of corrupt
men of small means who. in legisla
tive or other bodies, try to blackmail
corporations-anl try to blackmail
other people as well. IL they doubt
this, let them look at the revelations
of corruption in my own state-New
York-and in yours, my hearers-here
in Missouri; let them look at what oc-
CURED in California and what has oc-
CURED in Illinois. In Illinois, for in
stance, one of the rascalities develop
ed by the recent investigation was the
existence of a combination of legis-
lators, who blackmailed fishermen
along a certain river, forcing them
to pay TO prevent legislation which
would have interfered with their
business.
Now, scoundrels who do these kinds
OF things are, OF course, the very men
who. on the other hand, will black
mail a corporation IL they get
chance, and, on the other hand, will
cheerfully, IL the chance occurs, sell
themselves to that corporation against
the interests of the public. Their
corruption is no more due TO the ac-
tion of the corporations than the cor
ruption OF the corporations is due to
their action; and evil. and not good, is
done by the honest but misguided man
who would persuade you that either
fact is true. Our duty is to war with
equal sternness against the corrupt
man OF great wealth and the small
man who makes a trade of corrup-
ton; our fight is against both the
swindling corporation and the back
mailing or bribe-t taking politician.
We cannot afford to limit cam
paign against corruption to those who
happen TO have a certain social status
We need laws which shall put the cor
poration out of business, so far as
concerns corrupting the servants Of
