BRADSTREET and DUN
REPORT ON BUSINESS
Indications From the West Are
Declared to Be Particularly
Bright.

New York, Sept. 2O.-Bradstreet's
Saturday said:
Trade and Industrial exports are
rather more irregular. The first rush
OF fall buying is over at many cities,
but fall festivals and state fairs still
attract visitors to market. Western
reports are still the most optimistic,
and liberal marketing of cereal crops
has made far more plentiful money
supplies and an apparently easier po-
sition of western banks.
Reports from leading industries are
OF rather less than normal expansion in
activity. Iron and steel are reported
no more active and a larger volume Of
capacity is reported unemployed. Cur
tailment is still in evidence in the
leading textile industries. The eastern
shoe trade is reported working only
about two thirds of shoe machinery
capacity.
Business failures in the United
States for the week ending September
10 were 210, against 173 last week, 1873
In the like week of 1909, 266 in 1908
179 in 1907 n III in 1906.
Business failures in Canada for the
week number 80. which compares with
1S for last week and so for the like
week in 1909.
r. G.. Dun & Co.'S weekly review OF
trade today says:
Some increase in business, incident
to the speping Of fall activities. is
noted at many Of the leading trade
centers, but as a whole the domestic
commerce Of the country is still re-
tarded by the impairment of confidence
as the result OF the political uncer-
tainty.
The recent improvement in the iron
and steel trade does not appear to have
been maintained. and the actual con-
ditions are best disclosed by the state
ment that the United States Steel
corporation is now operating only
about two thirds of its blast furnaces
and that there is a large reduction in
untitled orders.
The dry goods markets, although
moving with fair activity in certain
districts. particularly in the west, con-
tinue as a whole to be characterized by
conservatism on the part of buyers and
sellers. Woolens and worsteds are dull
and shoes are being traded in very
slowly. though stocks are apparently
low,

PRESIDENT IS CITED
BY ROOSEVELT IN
COURT CRITICISM
Elk President, in His Syracuse
Speech, Replies to Attacks
Of His Enemies Upon
Position.

Syracuse, N. Y, Sept. 20.--Abraham
Lincoln and William Howard Taft were
quoted by Theodore Roosevelt today in
support of his claim of the right to
criticise the decisions Of the supreme
court of the United States. Colonel
Roosevelt delivered an address at the
state fair. and the criticisms made Of
MIN for his questioning Of two deci-
sions of the supreme court constituted
the burden OF his talk.
Mr.. Roosevelt declared that he had
merely echoed the dissenting opinions
OF members Of the court, particularly
the opinion OF Justice Harlan, in what
he had said in criticism of the decisions
of the court in the Knight sugar case
and the "bakeshop" case.
Lincoln on bred Scott.
Mr.. Roosevelt quoted at length from
Abraham Lincoln's criticism of the
court In the Dred Scott case. He de-
clared that Lincoln's language was in
fnitely stronger than anything he had
uttered.
IF 1 have erred said Mr.. Roose-
Welt, II have erred in company with
Abraham Lincoln"
hen Mr.. Roosevelt quoted President
Taft. He said:
Nor do 1 have to go only to the
statements OF the past for ~precedents.
The president Of the United States, Mr..
Taft. has served his country %honorably
and uprightly i'm man. positions-as
Judge, as governor Of the Philippines,
as secretary Of war. II now as presi-
dent-fOr to him and the congress actz
Ing with him we owe the creation OF
a tariff commission. the adoption of
maximum and minimum tariff law
treaties with foreign powers, the
proper treatment OF the Philippines
under the tariff, the increase i'm the
efficiency of the Interstate
law. the beginning OF a national legis-
lative program providing for the
exercise Of the taxing power in
connection with corporation do
ing an interstate business, a pos
tai savings bank bill, the consti-
tuition OF a committee to report a
remedy for over capitalization in con-
nection with the issue OF stocks and
bonds; but few of his services are more
deserving of record than what he said
in this very matter of criticism of the
judiciary.
What Mr.. Taft Thought.
Speaking as a United States circuit
Judge 10 years ago, he said:
'icly to criticise judicial action is Of
vastly moro Importance to the body
polite than the immunity of courts and
Judges from unjust aspersions and at.
lacks. Nothing tends more to render
judges careful in their decisions, and
anxious to do exact justice, than tho
consciousness that every act Of theirs
is to be submitted to the intelligent
scrutiny and candid criticism of their
fellow men. In the case of judges hav-
ing a life tenure indeed, their very in.
dependence makes tho right freely to
comment on their decisions of greater
Importance because il is the only prac.
tioabie and available instrument in the
hands Of q free people to keep such
judges alive to the reasonable demands
of those they ~serve.'"

SHAFROTH MEN CONTROL
COLORADO DEMOcRAre

Denver. Colo, Sept. 19.-Adherents Of
Governor Shafroth, who ecure his re-
nomination in the democratic state con-
vention here by the scanty official plu-
rality OF q votes. finished their work
by bringing about the nomination OF
practically the entire Shafroth slate.
The big Denver delegation, with 2S4
votes out OF LOO. was unable to stem
the Shafroth tide. except when it as
sisted in selecting Alexander Davidson,
or Salida county, as candidate for state
railway commissioner. Every other
candidate supported by the Denver men
was defeated.
Opposition among the women of Dem
yer county to the denomination Of Mrs.
Cathedine NJ. Cook as state superin-
tendent Of public instruction also went
amiss, Mrs. Cooks opponents receiving
a negligible total vote. while another
plan OF the women to nominate a wOm-
an for secretary of state, failed even
more disastrously. The nominations
are:
Lieutenant Governor - Stephen r..
Fitzgerald (renominated).
Treasurer-Roady Kenehan.
Secretary Of ~State-James r. Pearcs
(renOsninated).
Auditor-M. A. Leddy.

Missoula, Mont, Sept. 19.-The re-

1890 last night. after a harmonious
session. The much talked of insurgent

At the night session a compromise
platform was adopted. which was the
result Of a heated session Of the resolu-
lions committee lasting six hours. The
contest in the committee was over the
introduction of a resolution indorsing

platform indorses both Taft and Roose-
