The Cost of Rooseveltism.

The total expenditures Of the
United States government from the
Inauguration of Washington in 1889
to the beginning of the civil war in
1851 were s1,795,273,344.14.
The appropriation bills signed by
Theodore Roosevelt during his second
term in tie white house, from March
4, 1905 to March 4, 1909, authorized
expenditures amounting to $3,522,-
9S2,s16.17.
Four years of Rooseveltism cost
twice as much as the first seventy
two years of the republic!
One term of Theodore Roosevelt
took twice as much money out of the
pockets of the American people as
the combined terms of Washington,
Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe,
John Quincy Adams, Jackson, Van
Buren, Harrison, Tyler, Polk, Taylor
Fillmore, Pierce and Buchanan.
During the seventy-two years cov-
cred by the administrations of these
fifteen presidents the United States
government paid the Revolutionary
war debt incurred by the States. 1t
paid the cost of the war 1912. 1t
paid the cost of the Mexican war. 1t
boueht Louisiana. It bought Florida.
It paid for the Gadsden Purchase. 1t
acquired all that vast extent of terri
tory from the Mississippi river to the
Pacific ocean.
What have the American people got
to show for the four years of Roose-
veltism which cost double the money?
And what would be the cost Of four
years more of Roosevelt under the
New Nationalism?-New York World.

and an open knife and awaiting his
turn in the Office of DR.. J. R. Sewell,
1861 Whitehall street, VIM. Cox,
aged sc, of Austell, Ca, shortly after
noon to-day shot and instantly killed
the physician just as the latter was
emerging from his operating room.
Cox then turned the pistol on himself
and pulled the trigger. He is now at
the Grady hospital with fractured
skull.
Cox came to this city from his home
in Austell this morning for the pur-
pose, it is said, of visiting DR.. Sewell,
whose patient he had been for several
weeks.
It is understood that Cox has been
brooding for some time because OF
fancied wrongs at the hands Of the
physician. He has stated, it is said,
that the physician promised to cure
him of a chronic disease in return
for 500, but instead of getting bet
ter has grown worse.
There were no witnesses to the
shooting, although another patient
who had just left the physicians Of
flee a few seconds previously heard
the shots, and upon running back
found DR.. Sewell dying and Cox un-
conscious on the floor.
DR.. Sewell who was As years OF
age, is survived by widow and six
children. Cox is unmarried. A cor
oner's jury has ordered Cox held for

CONVICTED IN OKLAHOMA.
Former Greenwood "Financier" in
Clutches of Uncle Sam.

Greenwood, Sept. 22.-Mr. J. P.
Abney, cashier of the Farmers and
Merchants Bank, who went to Okla
homa to assist in identifying W. j.
Nichols, of the notorious Metropoli-
tan Loan and Trust Company, of
Greenwood, received yesterday a
newspaper from Ell Reno, Okla
homa, containing an account of the
trial and conviction of Jackson, alias
Nichols. This paper appears to be
in sympathy with Nichols. Its &C
count Of the trial is as follows:
''After a trial that covered eight
days before the Federal Court at
Enid, the jury in the trial of c. l..
Jackson, who was indicted for using
the mails to defraud, by the United
States Government, returned ver-
dict of guilty. The verdict came as a
surprise to Jackson and his attorn-
eys, for they felt that the govern
ment had failed in their proof of the
alleged crime.
s'The crime for which c. L. Jack
son is found guilty is punishable by
a fine of $4,000 or six years in the
penitentiary, or both, as the maxi
mum penalty. A motion by his at
torneys, G. L. Galloway, of this city,
and Henry Sturgis, of Enid, will be
made to the Court during the week,
and in event of a failure in this case
will be appealed to the Supreme
Court.
''This case has attracted State
wide attention on account of the al
legged amount of money that is said
to have been made by the Little
Crater Crude Oil Burner Co., of which
Jackson was the head, and which
was located in this city. The evil
dence in the case which convicted
Jackson was secured by couple of
postoffce inspectors and the methods
employed smirks of those used in the
Lewis case in st. Louis several years
ago, and which terminated in Lewis
being exeonerated by the Supreme
Court of the United States"

To Fight Increase in Rates

Topeka, Kan, Sept. 22.-Organ-
ganized opposition to the proposed
increase in railroad freight rates
was begun to-day at conference
of over $50 representatives of COM
mercial and public organizations OF
Middle Western States.
The fight against the proposed
rates is to be carried on principally
before the interstate commerce COM
mission.
Colorado, Texas, Oklahoma, Kan
sas, Nebraska, Missouri, Arkansas,
Minnesota and Illinois were repre-
sented at the conference. The reso-
luton adopted recommends a de-
crease in rates if investigation shows
the present rates are too high; a re-
striction of the proposed advance II
present rates are found remunera-
tive; a mandatory federal law max
ing it the duty Of the interstate
commerce commission to make a
physical valuation of railroad prop
erty and a rigid enforcement of the
antitrust laws.
The meeting opened with an ad-
dress by Gov. Stubs, of Kansas,
who recounted the efforts to keep
down rates, told of the cost of build
ing railroads and gave reasons Offer
ed by railroads for advancing rates.
MURDOCH Mckenzie, president OF
the American Live Stock Associa-
ton, was made chairman of the
meeting and gave figures to show
railroad earnings declaring the rail-
road reports do not show them cor
rectly. 1t is planned to hold other
meetings of the conference and COM
mittees were appointed to organize
the work begun to-day.

SCHOOLS
FOR THE CHILDREN
In the Larger Cities Are
Needed to Prevent the
White Plague

WASHINGTON, D. G., May A.
Every city should have one or more
outdoor schools, declared DR.. Henry
Farnum Stoll OF Hartford, Conn, in
a paper read today before the sociol-
ogical Section of the National Associ-
alton for the Study and Prevention
of tuberculosis. He recommended
such institutions for all delicate, So
called scrofulous or anaemic chill
dren, and those with tuberculosis Of
the bones. who are now in ordinary
schools. He advised also the unive :
sal use Of the skin tuberculin test in
the kindergarten and lower grades
to detect cases of unrecognized tuber-
culosis.
DR.. Stoll declared that 20 to 40 per
cent, of school children in large cities
are infected with tuberculosis. This
infection took place usually in the
home and not in the school, but the
padiy ventilated school room. by low
ering the ehild's vitality, allowed the
germs to become active. In proof Of
this statement DR.. Stoll referred to
147 children recently examined by
him in which the question of ex-
posilre to tuberculosis in the home
was very carefully investigated. BY
the use of tuberulin it was acer-
tanned that 40 per cent. Of the chill.
dren from tuberculous homes were
infected as against only 26 per cent.
OF those from supposedly healthy
homes, 1t was also found that so
per cent. OF the frail children from
healthy homes had the germs of the
disease but that only 1s per cent. of
the robust children from similar
homes were thus affected.

Dr. Forster demonstrated that the
present machinery In the anti-tuber-
cnlesis camrafsn SEas inadequate and
that i dldSnot provide for the tuSer-:
euiosis sufferer at the most critical
time in his existence when he left
the sanatorium or hospital. In view
of this fact he advocated that Insti-

were treated should be equipped with,
large farms upon which the conya-
lescent consumptiyes might learn the
rudiments Of agriculture. He stated
that in his opinion farming was the
most suitable work that cured con-

DR.. Forster therefore advocated
that large colonies OF conservatives
