SHERMAN ACT SATISFACTORY
President and Attorney General Be-
Iieve No Amendment Of Antitrust
Statute is Needed.

Washington--Pres Taft and
Attorney General Wickersham will
set their faces against any attempt to
amend the Sherman antitrust law
along the lines suggested by Judge
Gary in his testimony before the
Stanley committee Saturday. In
the view of the administration the
Sherman law needs no amending.
The policy of the administration
has been formulated after a careful
consideration of the supreme court
decisions in the Standard Oil and to-
bacco trust cases. In consequence of
these decisions the attorney general
regards himself as perfectly equipped
now to enforce the Sherman antitrust
law against all and every offender
against the law in the nation
AS Attorney General Wickersham
interprets the decision in the tobacco
case-and this is most important
since it is contrary to the general
opinion that has been taken-the cir

case remanded back to 1t, not for the
purpose of devising means by which
the American Tobacco company may
continue business, but solely to arrive

TAFT INDORSED
BY ROOSEVELT
PRESIDENT is ASSURED OF SUP
PORT OF HIS PREDECESSOR
FOR SECOND TERM.
II Is Said That Colonel Rooseveit's
Decision Was Brought About as
Result of Cordial Greeting Be
tween Two Men In Baltimore.

Washington.-Pres Taft, in his
candidacy for the presidential nomina-
ton for 1912, will receive the unquali-
fed Endorsement of former President
Roosevelt which will be uttered just
as cordially as it was prior to the
campaign of 1908. This is the best
political news Mr.. Taft has received
in many months, and it comes to him
in a manner that leaves no doubt as
to its authenticity.
The information that Colonel Roose-
welt under no circumstances will al
low his own name to be presented to
the Republican national convention,
was conveyed to the White House sew
eral days ago, but it did not become
known until Tuesday night. 1t is said
that Mr.. Roosevelt's decision was
brought about partly as the result of
cordial greeting between the two
men at Cardinal Gibbons jubilee in
Baltimore.
Whether the Roosevelt approval of
Mr.. Taft's candidacy will go far
enough to take the former president
into the campaign as an active speak
er is problematical, but that the force
of his personality will be with the
president is assured This fact is not
expected to prove pleasing to Repub-
leans who have made no secret of
their desire to bring Colonel Roose-
Welt forward as formidable rival for
the 1912 nomination

to His Pet Project.

Chicago. - President Taft, in a
speech before the Western Economic

that the principal opposition to the
Canadian reciprocity agreement came,
not from the farmer, but from the
lumber trust" and from American
manufacturers Of print paper.
In one of the most comprehensive
addresses he has ever made on the
subject, the president outlined some
of the methods employed by the op
ponents of reciprocity; practically
told the farmers that they were being
"buncoed" by special interests, and
said that the fate of the agreement
rested not SO much with the United
States senate as with the people OF
the country.
