One object in connection with the
coming investigation Of the steel trust
is to secure and give to the public
the facts concerning the absorption Of
the Tennessee Coal and Iron company
by the great corporation.
Permission for this merger was one
Of the scandals Of the time and Of the
Roosevelt administration.
No serious question was raised Of
the lack Of power, under the Sherman
law, to prevent absorption.
One day. however. Mr.. Morgan paid
a visit to the White House.
After that. the steel trust absorbed
the Tennessee company, with NO least
show of opposition on the part Of the
administration.
Mr.. Roosevelt's admirers always
have asserted that he Is the soul Of

be made upon his honesty.

are becoming a nation of drug fiends.
The number OF persons addicted to
this degrading and debasing habit is
placed at 1000, 900. and the evil is
constantly growing. With the object
of warning the country, the United
States government has issued a bull
letin. cautioning the people against
what is known as the "habit-forming"
compounds. The experts employed
by the government are certain that
new drug flends are being created
every year through the insidious pat
ent medicine and the soft drink that
contain a trace of the narcotic agents
which finally form the terrible drug
habit. There are 100 sanitaria
throughout the country for the cure
of this mind-wrecking habit and there
are hundreds of graves being filled
every year with unfortunate victims
of the drugs.
Never a day goes by that some
murder. death, defalcation or suicide
