HE NEVER SAID 1T.
Colonel Roosevelt Denies Urging
Hughes to Run Again.

Nahant, Mass, July IA vigorous
declaration that he, had not injected
himself into the New York state po-
litical situation to the extent of en-
deavoring to persuade Governor
Hughes to make third gubernatorial
campaign was made by Colonel Roose-
welt, following his visit to President
Taft at Beverly.
The attention of the former presi-
dent was called to the statement print
ed in a newspaper in which Roosevelt
was quoted as telling that the COVER
nor was the man who could save New
York state to the Republicans. When
the former president had read the
clipping he asked if the report was
intended as joke. and then said with
emphasis:
..Tt is wholly untrue. Utterly pre-
posterous. I never said any such
thing. There is not word of truth

WHAT THEY HAVE DONE
Murdock Reviews Work of the Insur-
gents in Congress.

last speaker who ever will attempt to
Russianize the popular branch of con-
gress, and within quarter OF a CEN

Victor Murdock of Kansas while here.
Reviewing what the progressives in
the house have accomplished and what
their future goal will be, Murdoch
said:
ssThe fight will go on, and as far
as the insurgents in the house are con-
cerned the battle will be hotter before
it becomes calm again.
ssIt has been the design of the in
surgents from the first to break down
the system not only of the present
speaker, but of all future speakers. by
putting in the hands of the house itself
the selection of committees.
ssIn maneuvering into a position for
the main attack the insurgents have
ACCOMPLISHED four things:
First, there is now the unanimous
consent calendar, which obviates the
once humiliating necessity OF going
hat in hand, to the speaker to ask his
consent to bring UP minor bills. Tor

it has pigeonholed, where formerly,
under the direction of the speaker, an
obdurate committee could defy the
whole congress.
Fourth, the speaker has been re-
moved from the controlling place as a
member of the committee on rules.
Through his membership heretofore
he was wont absolutely to dominate
the order of business and to dictate
what form all major legislation should
take.
'The session of. congress just closed
has created vital, virile legislation be-
cause the whole body and not group
of men has helped make the laws. The
railroad bill is a good one because it
was worked out by all the representa-
tives and was not framed by a group
and forced down the throats of the
others. And the revision of the rules
in the house has made such legislation
possible.
"The next important legislation to
be taken up will be that of revolution
izing the express business of the coun-
try. The express companies have
f1eeced the people through exorbitant
rates till they are tired of it,
