LAW MINUS RED TAPE
 IS HOPEFUL PROMISE
Professor Roscoe Pound Predict, In Early Abandonment of Needless Technicalities in Adminis.
 tratiOn of Justice.

mat We are about to enter upon an era Tn the administration of justice
 When red tape will be tabooed apd resort to needless technicali;ies is eli minated is the prophecy made by Professor Roscoe Pound of the Tni- Versity of Chicago in an address on
 A Practical Program of Procedural Reform, delivered before members Of the Illinois State Bar Association at the annual meeting of the organiza- ton at the Hotel LaSalle yesterday.
 Copies of the address prepared by Professor Pound have been forward ed to 1,500 lawyers throughout the state by Secretary John F Voigh, of the association, who predicted yes- terday that the subject will form the oasls for one of the most important discussions during the meeting. Ac- cording to Professor Pound, we are upon the threshold of a period in which the substance shall prevail and the machinery of justice shall he re- strained by and made strictly to serve the end for which it exists.
 One of the most telling points scored against the laws delay,' is embodied in the following recommen- dation which he made to the lawyers of Illinois:
 No Judgment should be set aside or new trial granted for error as to any matter of procedure unless it shall appear to the court that the error complained of has resulted in a violation of substantive law, de- prlved party of some right given by adjective law to insure a fair oppor- tunity 10 meet his adversary case or a full opportunity to present his own, provided it appears that he had a case to present or had real in- terest in meeting his adversary's case.
 Tt should not be necessary to break contract in order to ascertain what it means Professor Pound says. Tt should not be necessary for a lawabiding citizen to break the law in order to find out what are his duties or to ascertain the constitl,- t1onality of statute. It ought not to be that unless case for bill of peace can be made often presenting the unseemly spectacle of one depart ment of the government tieing up an- other one must submit to an uncon- stltutlonal statute or else to an ar rest

ANNE MORGAN HAS
NEW CHARITY IDEA
Will Aid Girls Ambitious to Shine In
Literature, Art or Music--Bureau
Is to Be Started.

Interested in helping poor but ambi-
tious men and women, Miss Anne Nor
gan, the daughter of j. z. Morgan, has
had her endeavors focused to definite
action by the sad case of Miss Vera
Fitch, the California girl, who tried to
commit suicide by shooting herself at
New York hotel recently through her
failure to win literary renown. The
case of Miss Fitch has ramifying ele-
ments which are in accord with an
elaborate program which Miss Morgan
has outlined. Miss Morgan g idea is to
help young girls who are led into New
York through ambition to shine in the
realms of literature, art or muic.
Many sad cases have been brought to
public attention, and the girls have
been lured to New York as the goal of
achievement. New York, to them, has
been the candle and they, like moths,
have fluttered into the fame while try
ing to wiz. distinction in their accepted
lines Of endeavor.
1t is said by friends that Miss Nor
gan has in contemplation the establish
ment of bureau in this city which may
be sought by ambitious girls to learn
the intrinsic worth of their labors. For
instance, the girl who leaves her home
and seeks to achieve success in literary
pursuits or in music Or In the drama
may have her aim criticized first by a
jury of competent men and women to
learn whether she is really fitted to
compete in the great race for success.
1t has also been suggested, but not
confirmed, that Miss Morgan may seek
the advice and kindly counsel of Judge
Ben Lindsey of Colorado before putting
into complete consummation her plan
to help poor girls.

7AFT's Plan liked
ROOSEVELT SAYS TARIFF IS
Being HANDLED right.
Regulation Under a Commission, He
Thinks, Will Be a Great Success
Outlines His Position on the Subject
Roosevelt Made Two Big Speeches
on His Way Through Four States.

Sioux Falls, S. D., Sept. 4.-Ex-Presi-
dent Roosevelt Saturday broke his 81
lence in regard to the Taft administra-
ton. He heartily commended one
phase of it, although he said nothing
that could be construed as a reference
to the administration as d whole.
He confined his remarke to the work
which President Taft has done for the
establishment of the principle of regu-
lating the tariff through commission
and to the president Is success in con-
Quoting negotiations with foreign pow
ers for the application of the new tariff
law.
Colonel Roosevelt also outlined clear
ly his position in regard to the tariff.
He reiterated his belief in the need of
regulation of duties by means of COM
mission and declared that the tariff
should be in the interest of the work
ing man and not for the benefit of
comparatively few wealthy men.
81 believe in such measure of pro-
lection as will equalize the cost of pro-
duction here and abroad. That is, as
will equalize the labor COST said he.
81 believe in such supervision of the
workings of the law as will make GER
tain that the protected industry gives
that difference to the man that we are
most anxious to protect-the working
man-and if 1 find it is not giving it,
l would take off the tariff duty from
that particular thing"
Colonel Roosevelt made two speeches
on the tariff Saturday. The first, de-
livered at Sioux City, Iowa, contained
his reference to the Taft administra-
ton. In the second speech, made here,
he amplified his first ON the tariff, de-
claring that although the Payne-Ald-
rich law had given rise to grave dissat-
isfaction the fault lay with the sys-
tenn under which tariff laws are made
rather than with the men who made
them.
| 1t was in the presence of Senator
Dolliver and Representatives Hubbard
of Iowa and Martin of South Dakota
that the former president made the
hioI oIdtemcut oOucefnlnS Iue ldlI du-
ministration that has passed his lips
since his return from Africa, IL weeks
ago. Colonel Roosevelt chose state
where the insurgent movement is
strong in which to make his first re-
marks at any length concerning the tar
if and to take the opportunity thus
presented to declare himself in regard
to the phase of the administration 8
work which met his approval.
The colonel passed through parts of
four states today, and everywhere
along the line of travel he was received
by enthusiastic crowds. Starting from
Omaha, Neb., early in the day he
crossed into Iowa and thence across a
corner of Minnesota into South Dakota.

Pres. Taft's
Conservation
Speech, St.P aul

St Paul, Sept. Elm the most care
fully prepared speech of his presiden-
tial career President Taft Tuesday
clearly and definitely defined his views
on the conservation of the nations re-
sources.
He declared he would prepare a
measure for congress that would deter
mine the relation and cooperation be-
tween national and state conservation.
He praised Theodore Roosevelt's con
servation accomplishments, declared for
the leasing of Alaska coal lands, all
water power sites, and grazing lands,
and promised these measures would
prevent monopoly and combination by
capital.
President Taft intimsted that the
Cunningham lands might be denied
patents, and stood out firmly for the
development of Alaska's resources in
way that would develop the country
without giving the big corporations
more of a chance than the individual.
He said real conservation involves
wise, non-wssteful use for the present
generation with every possible preser-
walton for the future generations.
He warned the people of the west
against SOOTHING at the saving of re-
sources simply because they were SC
anxious to expand.
He spoke of the work in the nation
on conservation, pointing out that every
man, woman and child in America was
affected. Conservation is national, -
he said.
In the speech of Governor Stubs OF
Kanssa he said that if he had the pow.
er he would kick Secretary Ballingel
out of office. AS he made this asser-
ton, he glared at the spectators in the
conservation congress.
Later, in private, Governor Hay Of
Washington took occasion to inform
Governor Stubs that he considered
Secretary Ballinger as white man al
the United States can boast.

MONTANA.
CONTINUED from Last Week
Montana Yields Large.


Montana grains always receive prizes
at general exhibits. AT the Louisiana
Purchase exposition Montana was
awarded for agricultural exhibits SO
gold medals, 62 silver medals, and SO
bronze medals. At the Lewis and Clark
Centennial exposition Montana g agri
cultural products were given 81 gold
For quality and yield, Montana barley
is perhaps unexcelled, it being espe-
cially favored in all markets. For the
past 10 years, according to figures from
the Department of Agriculture Year
Book, the average wheat yield of Mon
tana has been approximately twice that
of the average for the whole United
States. The average yield for Montana
in 1907, for example, was 2S.8 bushels
per acre, and for the whole United
States IA bushels. Likewise the average
per-acre oats yield for Montana in 1907
was 40 bushels, and for the entire
United States 1877 bushels.
Montana gained its first notoriety as
a grain-producing state during the time
that the Northern Pacific was trying
to secure legislation from congress that
would enable it to complete its trans
continental road to the Coast anC
through Montana. To prove that there
was possible traffic for such roaC
through the northwest, prize of 81 ,00t
had previously been offered at the frs
Territorial fair for the largest yield Of
wheat produced from single acre. A
farmer from Ruby Valley exhibited 12t
bushels, but due to lack of documentary
evidence his exhibit was barred, anC
first prize was given to a farmer Of
PriclSly Pear valley, near Helena, wht
proved that he harvested 102 bushels
of wheat from a single acre.
State Has Fine Markets.
The three chief local markets of Mon
tana are Helena, Butte and Anaconda
These cities are in the center of great
mining districts, hence they demand
large supplies of agricultural and dairy
ing products. In fact, the state output
of these products has never equaled the
local demand, hence the opportunity af
forded to homeseekers in the irrigable
dry-farming and dairying sections OF
the state. Montana is one of the lead
ing states of the Union in the produc
tion of all kinds of minerals, and espe
cially excels in the production of pre-
cious metals and copper. The vast min
eral wealth of the state has been a
hindrance, in way, to the development
of the agricultural resources, and as q
result great quantities of the common
food supplies must be imported. Great
areas of cheap fertile land near the
market centers are unused. Other vast
areas are utilized only for the produc-
tion of wild hay and other relatively
cheap crops.
