After Mr. Stoten's remarks heat

Captain II. F. kolb, Commissioner of

Captain Kolb announced that he had
not only withdrawn his acceptance OF

Eat!oH TO carry into effect Colonel
Thompsons plan, but had advised the
cotton planters OF Ala bama and OF the
South against participating In the

TOO MUCH CLAY USED
IN GOVERNMENT PAPER
Valuable Records Arc fn Danger Of
Crumblfng, Congregational Com
mittec Fears.


Washington, December 2l.-Discov-
cry by the Congressional Joint Com
mittee of Printing that "adulterated"
paper had been used for years in the
Government Printing ONCE to-day led
to the announcement OF n complete
new set OF government paper standards.
The paper adulteration was accom-
piished by the substitution of clay for
the moro substantial wood or rag
hbres. leading to the grave fear that
many Of the printed records OF the
government will crumble and become
unreadnble in less than q century.
The Joint committee has been at
work for more than year In an effort
to bring about reform OF standard
ization of paper purchased for the gov
eminent and amounting to moro than
100000 yearly. The public printer
to-day was authorized to advertise for
bids on 25.Soo,ooo pounds of paper for
the year beginning March I, next
In the new specifications the use OF
clay and mineral filler is closely re-
stricted.
Tho committee was told that the use
of clay In excess of printing require
ments was held BY paper experts to be
deliberate adulteration, having the
effect OF cheapening the cost to the
manufacturer and lesseninE the dura-
bility to the government. It was dis
covered that much OF the paper used
for many years past had been OF this
character. The joint committee is said
to be thoroughly aroused over the Sit
uation.
Included for the first time in the
vast amount OF paper the government
will buy next year Will be 100000
pounds OF news print paper.

Mr.. TAFT TO THE PEOPLE.

President Taft delivered the open
ing gun of his western campaign at
Detroit yesterday. The theme of his
address was the supreme court de-.
cisions in Standard Oil and the Tobac-
co cases. The speech has the true
ring and will meet the approval Of
many who have been inclined to doubt
the presidents sincerity in his ad-
verse attitude toward the criminal
trusts. His judicial explanation of
the decisions and their effect on the
nation make much plain to the lay
mind which heretofore was in doubt.
President Taft is a constructive and
not destructive statesman. He would
regulate but not destroy the giant cor.
porations which have added so much
wealth to the country and in many
instances improved and cheapened
commodities to the people. Such
speeches as that delivered yesterday
will 60 far towards allaying the
fears of the timid. They show the
sincerity of the man and his ability to
deal with the great questions l. a
manner fair to all.
Now if the chief executive will
make his position as plain on the
tariff as he has on the question of
trusts, and his utterances are along
the same lines of patriotism, fairness
and firmness no thinking man can
oppose him as the peoples candidate
in the next campaign. Progressive in
thought and spirit, firm and unyield-
ing in that which he believes to be
right, possessing a broad grasp of the
questions which confront the people,
he is the natural and logical leade,
of all Republicans and all patriotic
citizens.

ment Our foreign trade is in excel
lent condition, large increase in ex-
ports serving to strengthen our credit
abroad and to bring our international
relations into more normal position.
The banking situation is also much
better than some months ago. There
is less overexpansion of credit, and
the banks are in a generally sound
condition. Land speculation at the
west has been checked, and neither
bankers nor merchants in that part
of the country share the excessive
pessimism which prevails in New
York. In some directions the situation
is already working out its own cure.
Liberal concessions have been. made
in iron and steel, with the result Of
materially stimulating the demand.
1t is true that the Steel Corporation
is only working about 70 per cent of
it's capacity, nevertheless it's total
product is almost as large as at any
time during it's history. There is lit
tie reason for complaint as to the
volume of the steel business, though
profits may have been considerably
curtailed. Similar conditions prevail
in the textile trades. Prices of cot
ton goods have been reduced. and rhe
result is much wider distribution
both at wholesale and at retail. In
this direction at least. consumers are
already getting the benefit of lower
prices. Cotton mills are reopening
an there is every indication that the
crisis in this industry has been passed,
especially with cheaper cotton in pros
pect. Better orders from China have
already resulted. 1t is also worth not.
ing that labor, though undoubtedly
very restless, is showing some discre-
ton and is slow in enforcing it's de-
mands at most inoportune time.
Financial conditions ere certainly
against making additional increases in
wages, and public opinion is not likely
to support the men in any further de-
mands, with conditions as unsatisfac-
tory as they are"
