TAFT VISITS HOME
OF L|NCOLN'S SON
viii Speak Before Legislators
of Vermont Today-Goes
to Fathers Birthplace.

MANCHESTER, VT, Oct. 8.-The
President and Mrs. Taft left here to-
day for Montpelier, continuing their
automobile trip to the State capital,
where the President will address the
Legislature, in accordance with a
special legislative resolution.
The President and his party spent
last night at the home Of Robert T.
Lincoln, only son of the martyred
President. They arrived at the Lin
coin home late in the evening, after
a wearisome automobile journey OF
$50 miles.
After leaving Dalton, Mass, where
the President spent Sunday with
Senator Crane, a short stop was made
at Williams College, Williamstown,
Mass, where a short reception was
given at the home of President Gar
field.
Bad roads were met on the journey
to this city, and the Presidents party
was far behind its schedule when 1t
reached Brattleboro for luncheon. In
the afternoon the President motored
TO the top of a mountain neal West
Townsend. VT, to visit a little ceme-
trey where his greatgrandfather is
buried. Townsend was the birth
place of the Presidents father, AL
phonso Taft, and the residents of the
little town gave the President a rous-
Ing welcome. He made a brief speech.
lauding the Vermonters for their fine
sturdy qualities.

LOCAL HOME RULE DENIED.

EOME rule for municipalities has been asked for at Trenton
H~-and promised year after year, and there is no home rule
\ vet. Mayor Haussling, in his address last night, voiced
the demand again, and his words find echoes throughout the
Newark community. The meddlesome and ignorant interference
by the Legislature with municipal affairs has been the curse of
cities and is responsible for many conditions that legislatures
gust as ignorantly set up to reform. 1t has by stupid laws put
municipalities to great trouble and expense, and even provoked
social antagonism most injurious to the general welfare. AS
between the large cities and the small towns in New Jersey
there are differences so great in their populations and character
istics, their ideas and habits, that general laws for the regula-
ron of all are an utter misht. In the management of the local
affairs of a city the judgment of its citizens must necessarily be
superior to that of outsiders. Men living in Cape May and Sussex
counties cannot pretend to know more about Newark,s affairs
and to have a better judgment how to conduct them than New
arkers themselves. And yet that superiority of the man from
some other county is constantly asserted in the Legislature.
tur city is not permitted to regulate its own expenditures. for
the Legislature ties it up to mandatory appropriations. This was
dome by the Legislature of 1912 and it is likely to be done by
next years Legislature if our city cannot get relief from this
jntolerable interference.

NEW YORK AND ITS UNDERWORLD"

MI AKING all allowances for the romancing of the yellow
ANN reporters in New York in their accounts of the under.
world as revealed in the circumstances of the murders
of Rosenthal and Zelig, it is evident to every thoughtful mlnd
that conditions exist in the metropolis that Justify the grayest
concern. Nor are they such as can be successfully COPIED with
by the ordinary processes of criminal justice. In New York, as
In most American cities, the administration of the criminal laws
Is lamentably weak and inefficient. Courts are tied up to formu-
las and trials too frequently are games of skill between Grim,
inal lawyers, with the judge as referee. In New York city the
magistrates and criminal lawyers are responsible for much OF the
lawlessness and crime that exist, for they have encouraged GRIM
inality by protecting criminals. The dockets of the courts are
crowded with untried cases and hardened criminals have been
lightly punished or set free because of their political pull. Inc
police department of New York is the honestest and most ell.
hcient part of the criminal system, and while some of its ofhcers
are chargeable with graft and other crookedness the rank and
file are as fine a body of men as any in the world. They can be
relied On to do their duty in any great emergency, for there
never was a time when they failed. But something more than
an efficient police is needed. The magistracy should be radically
reformed in it's personnel and the license of the criminal lawyer
should be severely curtailed, and he should be held cr1m1naly
liable for wrongful acts. The bar can take the lead In tls
reformation. Given the right kind of laws and an honest, con-
scientious and efficient administration of them, with the assur"
ances of early trials and clean verdicts, and we will hear no more
of the underworld"

LEAGUERS TOO BUSY TO
HONOR FOUNDERS O
WiIsonites' Executive Commit
tee Meets Behind Closed Doors.

When the executive committee of
the woodrow Wilson League met last
night Mayor Julian A. Gregory, of
East Orange; John M. Rhodabeck,
Patrick j. Dolan and William P.
Macksey were absent. John l.. Armi-
tage, president of the league, and the
other members who participated in
the Endorsement of Mayor Hauss-
ling's opponent were on hand.
The reporters who sought admis-
sion were barred out and told that
the meeting was called for the pur-
pose of raising additional funds to
defray the expenses of the league.
The absentees were too busy, accord
ing to the statement of each today, to
attend the session. 1t is known that
many of the leagues members have
severed their connections and refused
further contributions.
A carload of literature sent to the
committee is piled in the room and
apparently the required stationery
and stamps are needed. The office
rent goes on, as does the pay of the
stenographer. and it appears that the
men who bolted the city ticket will
have to dig down If they desire to
keep the league alive.
The committee, strange to say, was
so busy in trying to find out where
the next dollar was coming from that
they never thought of passing a reso-
luton on the death of the leagues
first president, John J. Clifford, who
died on Friday.

How the Campaign Progresses
Progressive Democratic Republican
FOR OPEN
LABOR MARKET
Governor Says One Purpose of
MonopoIies Is to Destroy
Wage Competition.

NORTON, Kan, Oct. S.-That the
very men who have been most sue
cessful in building up the trusts are
also the very men who have been
most successful in preventing the or
ganization of labor was the conten-
ton of Governor Woodrow Wilson in
an address here today devoted large
ly to what he characterized as the
pervasive power of the great inter
ests which now dominate our devel-
opment."
Don't you know" he asked, that
| one of the objects of their combina-
ton is to control the labor market.
and do you imagine that they ave
ever set deliberate plans for giving
the working man anything compar-
able in the way of wages to the
! proportion Of the profits which they
themselves pocket? Some of 1.-The
most highly protected industries pay
wages hat are below the living scale,
at the same time that the prices they
are making are so great h a they

surplus every second year..
II tell you this, that American labor
up to date is the cheapest in the
world. / can prove 1t. American
manufacturers compete in foreign
markets in the scale of goods
manufactured in those markets,
near those markets, by labor
that receives only one-third the re-
Enumeration of American labor. Now,
what does hat mean? 1t means they
can afford to pay American working
men three times as much and still
undersell their competitors in the
foreign markets, and yet the Ameri-
can workingman Is old that the
amount of his wages depends upon
the protective tariff.
ANYBODY who supposes that eco
nomic questions and political ques-
tions are two different things Is very
much mistaken, because these things
have peer so closely married with
one another in our recent political
practise that 1t is impossible to dis
criminate between them.
Il am not interested in disturbing
the great course OF business III Inns
country, but l am interested in en-
riching 1t. 1 am interested in vary
ing it. And I know that the only
way to do it is by the method | have
suggested by regulated competition,
instead of legitimatized monopoly.
This Is a year of critical choice.
After the year 1912 1t may De too late
to turn back. Don't deceive your
self for a moment as to the pervasive
power of the great interests which
now dominate our development. They
are so great that 1t is almost an open
question whether the government of
the United States can dominate them
or not. Go one step further. make
their organized power permanent and
it may be toe late to turn back"

WILSON MAKES APOLOGIES
TO OFFENDED GAMERS

NEW YORK, Oct. S.-Governor
Wilson has back-pedaled and apollo
gized to the benzoate of soda per-
sons and those interested in other
chemical presentations by the route
of the canning industry. In an adj
dress in Sioux City the governor at
tackled them last week.
Wilson was asked to correct the
wide misapprehension which has been
caused by him in Sioux City.
Immediately Governor Wilson an
swered as follows:
81 am sincerely obliged to you for
giving to me the opportunity to cor
rect the careless error. which would
have been quite ~inexcusable If it had
not been inadvertent. 1t was by a
slip of the tongue l spoke of the can

THE GREAT AMERICAN GAME.

ID AsEBALL has become a truly national game for two
LID reasons, one the wonderful development of the athletic
spirit, and the other the cleanliness with which the game
has been maintained. Some years ago a staid professional or
business man might have been ashamed to be seen at a profess
kionaI baseball game and few women attended games. Baseball
Management was not then what it is today. The discipline for
ayers was lax, umpires were assaulted and there were not
kequent ARRAYS between players. Nor were the proper ac-
modations provided for the public. Today the conditions for

TARGET
FOR I. R. ATTACK
Bull Moose Leader Issues a
Def to jerseys Governor.
Invades Michigan.

DETROIT, Mich, Oct. S.-Colonel
Roosevelt, with a battery of verbal
cannons to discharge against Gov
ernor Wilson, arrived in this city to-
day. He came here after a long
journey from Albany, N. Y. to make
his initial onslaught on Michigan,
which he believes will have a definite
influence on the ultimate result Of
the campaign.
just what sort of treatment Gov
ernor Wilson will get from him from
now to the end of the campaign the
colonel indicated on his journey to
this city, when he discussed the
Democratic candidates assertion at
Pueblo yesterday that the steel trust
is behind the corporation regulation
theories in the Progressive platform.
Let him prove 1t or retract," was
the way the Bull Moose candidate
disposed of the New Jersey Gov
ernor's charge.
$50 far as i Know" he continued,
mir. Perkins is the only man in the
steel trust or harvester trust who Is
supporting me. All the. other big
men in those corporations are sup-
porting Mr.. Taft or Governor Will
SON."
The colonel made it plain that he
desired it to be known that he re-
CARDS his def to Governor Wilson as
a direct challenge which, he expects
the Democratic candidate to take up.
Whether Wilson replies to him or
not, the colonel intimated. he will
have some heavy bombshells to ex-
plode in the Democratic. and Repub-
lican camps within the next few
days.
