Remember the Third Cup of Coffee

Americans to-day are not quite so
ready to say that Mr.. Roosevelt is the
only truthful man in the country, as
once they were. He now charges Gov.
Wilson with having said what is not
true. We guess Gov. Wilson can stand
it. The question simply is as to the
Interpretation Of one of the third term
ers speeches. His statement as to the
third term is a case in point. If we
accept his own view of those words we
must conclude that those who say that
he declared he would never accept an
other nomination are liars For he now
explains (the now famous or notorious
third cup of coffee" statement in the
Outlook that he never said anything
of the kind, but only that he would
never accept a third Consecutive" term.
So, in this instance, Col Roosevelt
makes the boldest and most radical of
statements, and when he finds that they
are likely to get him in bad" he be-
gins to qualify. One thing is certain,
and that is that he never means" any
thing that is unpopular. In the course
Of his public life he has never made
bad choice, never gone the unpopular
and difficult road, never made the
slightest sacrifice.
There is no danger that Gov. Wilson
will get into the Ananias Club through
the kindly offices of Theodore Roose-
welt. The day for that sort of thing has
gone by.

Protesting against the "fadists,"

ginis, appearing yesterday before the
House District Committee. expressed
himself in favor of the bill introduced
by Representative Lewis, of Maryland,
by which the District is bound to re-

under the tuberculin test
Representative Carlin declared that
the District is now getting pure milk.
The milk was the same. he said, as
that which has fattened the babies of
Virginia and helped them TO grow TO
strong manhood" He assailed the health
officer of the District for providing re-
strictions on milk sales. which would
ultimately cause a prohibitative raise in
price, and put it beyond the means Of
persons of ordinary circumstances.
In concluding his remarks Mr.. Carlin
said that the health officer had never

TAFT Is COMPARED

Clark Says Veto Power Would
! Spell Ruiz. to British
Monarch.

Louisville, KY. April s.-Speaker Champ
Clark was the principaT speaker here to-
night at the celebration of the annl-
versary of the birth of Thomas Jefrer-
son. Mr.. CIark's remarks were loudly
applauded-
He declared that President Taft's ex-
ercise OF the veto power would receive
rebuke at the hands OF the American
people at the coming election.
President Taft" said Speaker Clark,
vetoed all our tariff bills, raising an
issue which will rage with unabated fury
until the polls close in November. Under
the Constitution, he has the prerogatiye
Of using the veto. So has the King of
Great Britain, but no British King has
and the first British King who does veto
line, just as William Howard Taft will be
the last Of stand-pat Presidents. He
made his record; We made ours. On that
record we confidently appeal to the peo-
pie, the court OF last resort in politics.
The high protective tariff is the moth
er of the trusts. The Republicans prom
ised before the election Of 1905, II they
were again intrusted with power. to re-
duce the tariff. Without that promise
they could not have carried the coun-
try. On that promise they did carry the
country. and Immediately proceeded to
revise the tarif up. For that stupen-
dous piece of bad faith the people
trounced them in 1910, and will trounce
them still more thoroughly in 1872"

RANDELL'S CHARGES
BRING HOT RETORT

Representative Choice W. Randell. OF
Texas, again stirred up bad feeling In
the House yesterday when he attempted
to explain his speech OF Thursday. in
which statements were made that were
construed by many Representatives as
a reflection upon the integrity Of the
membership generally. Mr.. Randell
charged Thursday that practically every
member Of the House was under some
sort OF influence" and "approachable"
in matters OF legislation by corporate
interests
He criticised the Committee on the
Judiciary, OF which Representative
Clayton. of Alabama. Is chairman. for
its failure to report the Randell bill
which would prohibit the employment
Of government employees. including Sem
ators and Representatives. by interstate
corporations.
Mr.. Clayton paid his respects TO Mr..
Randell yesterday. declaring that the
Texans observations relative to the
House members on Thursday to be
"scurrilous insinuation." Replying. Mr..
Randell insisted that IL was well known
that many members represented cor
porations, but he declined to name the
men he had In mind. Mr.. Clayton char
acterized the Rsndell bill as ''ridicu-
lous," declaring that all of the evils
that its author seeks to correct are
covered by existing statutes.

The lad-he IS a tall. lanky boy of
seventeen-is said TO have been seen

URGES HOME FOR INEBRIATES.
Kindred Wants Ono Like New
York Institution.

Another plan for an inebriates' hos
pital was offered yesterday in place of
the Rothermel bill by Representative
Kindred, of New York, who is a ply
sEcian Mr. Kindred plans to Introduce
a bill modelled after the City Home for
Inebriates now in New York, witch was
authorized by the legislature Of that
State a year ago.
"Drunkards, under the laws Of most of
the States of the Union" said Mr.. Kim
dred, ARE roughly taken to jails, insani-
tary in many instances, and treated like
ordinary hardened criminals, which the
drunkard certainly is not until he has
been developed into criminahty by such
treatment and unscientilc handling. 1t
is true that drunkards are the bane Of
many communities. and the more difficult
the problem of humanely handling them
and restoring them to a better citizenship
and making them productive and self
supporting, the more earnest the efforts
which should be made in this direction.
In other words, there is hope for the
orunkard, and even the worst narcotic
or drug fend, as they are very cruelty
called, and II is the duty of the State
and nation to become interested iR and
to carry out modern plans for the cure
and restoration OF these citizens, not only
from the standpoint of human sympathy
and pity. but from the purely economic
standpoint of the taxpayer"
