Realizing that their ammunition

CONSULT THEM FIRST.

Washington. y. c.-Opposition in
the Senate to the arbitration treaties
signed between the United States
and England and France, is likely to
prove considerable during the pres
ent session. Some Senators even
think the treaties may moi be rati-
fed. Senators who are members of
the committee on foreign affairs are
angry because Taft did not consult
with them before agreeing upon the
treaties. The Irish-American and
German-Anerican societies arc fight

"SUNNY JIM TURNED DOWN.
Washington. d. C.-Thc will of
George Washington is not exhibited
on Sundays, eve though the vice
president of the Unitedi States re-
quests it.
The story runs that Vice President
Sherman, an ardent motorist. ac-
companied by friends took a spin last
Sunday in Virginia. Reaching Fair
fax Court House, they decided they
would like to see the original will
drawn by the first President.
The party was directed first to the
home of the deputy clerk of the cour-
ty. The deputy expressed regret, but
quite positively informed the vice
president that the rules forbade the
court house, where the document is
kept in a glass case, being opened on
Sunday. Finding the official obdurate
the party repaired to the home of his
chief, some distance away.
The clerk, however, was as strong
ly rule-bound as his deputy, and the
vice president and his friends left
for Washington with their curiosity
lunsatistied.

New York Ci,y.-CoI. Roosevelt
appeared before the Stanley steel
trust investigating committee this
morning. ii is the first TINE in the
history OF the nation that IL former
president has appeared before Il
congressional committee.
Col. Roosevelt was called to tel!
what he knew about the Sobbling of
the Tennessee Coal and Iron Com
panic of 1907, because Col. Roosevelt
gave out Il statement at that time
that he had no objection to the trans.
fer of the property.
Col. Roosevelt read to the commit
tee Il prepared statement concerning
the affair. In this he reviewed the
financial panic of the time and said
that Judge Gary and Henry c. Prick,
of the United States Steel Corpora.
ton, called ut the White House and
explained that the corporation was
considering the purchase of the Tenn
cssc company. Roosevelt stated to-
day that he dictated IL letter to At
lo~lncy-GcncInl .Bunapartc. SAYING
that he had no objection to the alb
sorption of the Tennessee com
panN by the Morgan interests.
The cNpreSiGrnt today said he did
this to preserve the confidence of tho
count and said that he took all re-
sponsibility for his act and still
thinks he avoided IL panic.
Col. Roosevelt admitted that he
did not know at the time he gave
permission for the merger, that the
Tennessee company had great hold
ings OF coal and iron, as was develop
ed by later investigation.
1t was stated by the witness that
the United States should follow the
example of Germany and keep clos
er control over big corporations shat
Try to monopoliZe business or natural
resources.
Chairman Stanley said to Col.
Roosevelt that he wanted to divide
the big corporation from the rail
road companies by prohibiting tho di-
rectors of the steel trust from acting
as directors OF the railroad compan-
les. This Roosevelt declared he APP
proved.
The cX-president said further that
the cutting up of big corporations in
to smaller ones, thus trying TO COM
pei them to compete. would do no
good. This remark. of course. has
reference to the action of the Oil
trust in dividing into 33 corporations
in compliance with the decision of
the supreme court.

She then heard the sound of a
falling body and several sharp crash
es, indicating the banging Of the re-
ceiver against the wall as it fell from
the hand of the wounded man. She
at once notified the police station
that some one had been shot at one
of two addresses where there were
telephones on the same party line.
One Of these addresses was that of
Mathey Stron's saloon, and there the
police found John Dolzall, the bar
lender, lying unconscious on the
floor near the telephone. The cash
register had been broken open and
all the money taken.
Dolzall probably will die.

member, Mr.. Advertiser.
| heard sometime ago Of a
business house that was selling
articles that looked like sterling
silverware. If you picked it up
and looked for the name, you
saw the word STIR l. N G,
spelled with 81" instead of &C."
What would you think of a
merchant who bought this ware
and sold it to his customers as
e enuine silverware at enor-
mously cut prices? Do you think
he can attain any real, lasting
success? Is it not only a ques-
ton of time before the, public
will lose faith in his statements
and withdraw its trade from
him?
A great many people = the
majority of us--cannot afford
to buy luxurious things, but all
of us want to know what we are
buying-whether it is REAL
