Lieutenant Colonel Jesse Perry, pri-

His new uniform has arrived

his sword, and his pistol, and about ten

WHAT CAN BE DONE

The extent to which the big auto
mobile companies have perfected
the steels used in the modern, pop.
ular priced cars is illustrated by a
novel experiment. made by the
foreman Of a garage at Mitchell,
South Dakota.
This man found himself in need
of simple milling machine to cut
cold-rolled shafting. and for general
use about the garage. Instead Of
ordering a tool-steei milling wheel
the man took a sliding gear, made
in the Studebaker factories for an
EMF "30,' car, and laboriously
filed its teeth into saw shape.
y To the amazement of coterie of
skepties the converted gear started
milling as soon as it was hooked to
the garage power device, 1t cuts
any steel that can be milled. and
shows in striking way the high
quality of material which the Stude.

product.

STANLEY SHOWS UP PER.

Following is an Associated Press
dispatch: Washington, D. c.. Aug.
13. The personal and political re-
lations of Colonel Theodore Roose-
welt and George w, Perkins, former
ly of j. p. Morgan & Co., were Bit
terly attacked on the floor of the

chairman of the steel trust investi-
gation committee.
In speech supporting his bill to
make the reports of the commits
sioner of corporations available for
Congress. Representative Stanley
charged that Roosevelt had pro-
tected the harvester trust from gov
ernment prosecution, and described
Perkins as the "go-between' of
big business" and the government.
Representative Stanley's charac-
terizations of the former Morgan
associate were extremely bitter.
He dwelt at length on the absorp-
tion of the Tennessee Coal and Iron
Company by the United steel cor
poration, and charged that Perkins
had been able to secure for Herbert
Knox Smith, former commissioner
Of corporations, information which
denied congress. The new progress
sive party came in for an extended
discussion at the hands of Stanley.
Il hear that this new party of pro-
gressive capitalism" he said, will
sing hymns between the TRADES of
Roosevelt and the pIatitudes of
Perkins and that Perkins is to be

Street. the chant of the Turkish

pass resolution submitting con-
stitutional amendment for election
to United States senators by popular
vote; to economize; to liberalize the
House rules; to admit Arizona and
, New Mexico as two States; to revise
the tariff downward-all of which
has been done.
I'VE passed tariff bills which
would have saved the American
people $27.50 to the family, but the
President would not permit them
to become laws, and the people still
groan under an outrageous load of
tariff taxes.
Our tariff bills, while reducing
the amount of money which the
present tariff bill costs the people
by SIS per capita, would have raised
ample revenue to run the Govern
ment, for it should never be forgot
ten that of every S. taken from the
people by the Payne tariff law, only
81 goes into Uncle Sans pocket,
while $4 go into the pocket of the
tariff benefciaries. Our tariff bills
would have gone far toward reduc-
ing the high cost of living, so op-
pressive to the masses, hut the
President would not have it So
more's the pity.
In addition to this we have pass
ed more bills for the benefit of
labor than any Congress that ever
met. We have passed bills liberalz-
ing the homestead law, making it
so easy for American citizens to
obtain homes in their own country;
that they will not feel disposed to
expatriate themselves into the Brit
ish northwest.
We passed a bill rendering the
condition of our seamen better and
life at sea more safe. We passed
the Panama Canal bill, which is one
of the most important pieces of
legislation ever placed upon the
statute books.
I'VE passed the excise bill, which
is, in its nature, an income tax bill, |
by which we transferred a large
burden of taxation from the backs
of the poor, who are at least able
to bear taxation, to the backs of
those who are more able to pay
taxes.
We passed sundry other bills of
reformative and benefcent charac-
ter, for which we will receive the
support and plaudits of the Amer
ican people.
" By their fruits We shall know
them is a rule established by the
highest authority for measuring
human conduct. 1t is just rule, a

What the Democratic House ac-

the amelioration of conditions,
thwarted as it has been by a Re-
publican President and Republican
Senate, is only an earnest of what
we will do when we come into full
possession of the three legislative
branches of the Government.
True, President Taft vetoed
most of our bills of a remedial
character. That was his preroga-
tive, unwisely exercised. He made
his record; we made ours. On these
