with the avowed mission Of bringing
more closely together the East and

Mr.. Taft evidently believed that the
Sherman antitrust law was the most
important matter before the country,
and he accordingly gave very long
chapter to presenting his views on 1t.
Matters of the tariff, foreign regula-
tions, methods of federal regulations
of the issuing of railroad securities
and the like, have all been found of
separate and distinct treatment.
The Mcnamara confessions attract
ed great deal of local attention
here, owing to Washington being the
headquarters of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor. A great many pub
lie men were interviewed as to the
effect the Mcnamara trial would have
on union labor, and there seemed to
be unanimous opinion that no dam
age had been inflicted to the cause.
An altogether different opinion pre-
walls as to the effect upon profession
al leadership, and especially as ap-
piled to the case of Mr.. Gompers and
others.
There appears to be plenty of ev-
idence that the country is about to
receive an enlarged infliction of tar
iffitis, as President Taft and the tar
iff board, the regular Republicans,
the progressive Republicans, and the
several brands of Democrats in and
out of Congress, are getting up steam
with an idea of turning loose upon
the entire subject as soon as the
Christmas turkey question is settl d.

One of the great results of the per-
sistent and effective work being done
by westerners and which Is being
backed up by this tour of the East
by the party on the Governors
Special" is to acQuaint the people
of the nation of the greater pros
perity that exists on farm lands of
the West as compared with factory
life in the cities. The West has been
carrying on this work for many
years and recently they have secured
strong ally in the new south, which
through its state and city govern
ments, and its railroads, as well as
commercial bodies is carrying on
great and systematic campaign of ed
ucation, and the result is that the
whole nation is Turning from its dis
cordant mutterings regarding the
high cost of living to the relief that
it has repeatedly demonstrated exists
in the back-to-the-farm movement.
Amidst the fuss and features of the
social splurge incident to the trip Of
the Governors Special, the execu-
tives of the different states have new
err for one moment allowed anyone to
forget that they were after settlers,
and not seeking personal glory. From
the eastern standpoint and especially
as viewed from the national capital,
the idea of former Governor Brady
of Idaho in bringing the 'big chiefs"
of the different states so actively be-
fore the country in this immigration
movement, has proven to be a great
success.
Among the measures introduced in
Congress by Representative LaFol-
lette and one by Senator Poindexter,
is one to abolish the commerce court
Congressman returning to the capital
are indignant that the work of the
Interstate Commerce Commission
should be effectually hampered by the
Commerce Court and as result they
: propose to get rid of that institution.
2 1t is said that President Taft still
l believes in the effectiveness of the
Y Commerce Court, which he earnest
t ly advocated a year ago, and that he
5 will endeavor to save it's existence.
