PRESIDENTS THIRD MESSAGE
 IS SUBMITTED
Taft's Specific Recommendation is For Seating Cabinent
 Members in Congress

washington, Dec. 20.-Pres1dent Taft has submitted to Congress, in concrete form, the idea he advanced e.t the recent banquet of the Lotus Club in New York-that cabinet of hcers be given places in Congress The specific recommendation to thIs end was included in the Presidents third message to the national leg1sla- ture so far this session, dealing with affairs in the interior, agriculture postoffice and commerce and labor departments. In it he also strongly outlined his stand on the trust ques- tion-
 "A trade commission which looks to the fixing of prices Is altogether impractical and ought not for mo ment to be considered as Posslole solution of the trust question he as serted The trust question in the enforcement of the Sherman anti trust law is gradually solving itseir. 1s maintaining the principle and re storing the practice or conpetI1o3n and if the law Is quietly but firmly enforced business will adjust itself 10 the statutory requirement. and the un- rest in commercial circles provoked by the recent discussion will disap- pear.''
 Other recommendations to Con srress urged by the President were for a special court to hear appeals in the enforcement of the pure food law that land laws be completely reV1seo to secure proper COnSeTVaL1OH dA1d y SI permit development, that pay to rail- roads for carrying the mail be read justed, for a public utilities commis- zion in the district of Colun b1a and for generous appropriations for erec- tton of buildings and installing of government exhibits at the Panama Pacific exposition in 1915.
 The Presidents plan for seating cabinet members in Congress is ap- parently modelled after the system now in vogue in the British parlia- Enent- The Executive plans for them to take part in the debates.
 The President also pointed out the fact that cabinet officials, if they knew they would daily have to face <f11izzing as to their department, would probably pay closer attention to their work and give greater attention to avoid criticism. Comparing his own suggestion with the British govern mental plan, the President suggested that he would favor giving cabinet members 6 vote if this were possible under the American governmental plan

TAKES ISSUE WITH
 GOVERNOR BALDWIN
POTHIER SURE RHODE ISLAND ISN'T SATISFIELD WITH NEW HAVEN ROAD-NEED OF
 IMPROVEMENT.
Says Extension Will Be Built If He Has To Do It
 Himself.

Providence, R. T., Dec. 20-The state ment of Governor Baldwin of Connec- ticut in defence of the New Haven railroad, caused some indignation on the part of Governor Pothier of Rhode Island. When asked what he thought of Governor BaIdwin's statement, to the effect that Boston was jealous; that Connecticut's railroad policy was better than that of the New England Sta tes fighting the monopoly, and that Connecticut manufacturers were satis- fled with freight facilities, he replied:
 --I do not want to critfcise the laws of another State, nor the utterance of that States chief executive. But I am sure that the manufacturers of Rhode Island are not satisfied with the freight facilities offered by MT. MeIen's road. I also feel sure that there is to be an improvement, and that New England is to have relief from this monopoly
 ''If the Grand Trunk does not full fi1 it's promise to the people to extend it's line to Providence, I will build dent capital to undertake the enter prise; and if the State of Massachu- Setts carries out its plan to take over the Boston & Maine, we will build from Douglas, on the Palmer to Prov idence extension, a connection to some will give us an outlet to the north and west by way of the Canadian Pacific, and then completely break the New Haven monopoly's grip on New England Of course such a con- nection would not be built if Mir Mel tonN & Maine. because it would be useless.''

Many of the employers of the city are taking ad- vantage of this department and hard ly a day goes by without a call from some new shop or store. They are coming to realize more and more that only men fitted for the line of work open and then only those whose ref erences as to character and ability have been closely checked up are sent out to prospective positions. In other words the association is looking after the applicants and employers interest first "a ther than it's own.

 IN SECOND HAND STORE

Ridgefield, Dec. 20.-Mrs. William s. Rainsford, wife of pr. Rainsford. formerly rector of St., Georges church, New York, said she was greatly sur prfged, when told that a book.

The book was autographed by MT. Morgan who is understood to have purchased from the dealer.
 Mrs Rainsford says she thinks that when they gave up their New York residence that their caretaker, who collected some value1eEs books to be disposed of accidentally. included the book in question among them. In no other way can she account for it's not being with her husbands library which is now in storage in the city. Dr. Rainsford is now abroad.
