going to fight it out TO the end"
The former president made this re-
mark after long conference with vi
liam A. Prendergast, controller of the
city of New York Mr.. Prendergast
came to Oyster Bay to induce Mr.
Roosevelt to say definitely that under
no circumstances would he withdraw
from the fight.
Has any suggestion been made" was
asked of Mr.. Prendergast, that any
man other than Col. Roosevelt should
lead the fight for the new paTty?'
Z will never answer that question
for Mr.. Prendergast,' said the colonel.
IN the statement which 1 made in
Chicago on Monday I said I would stay
in the fight to the end Since then l
have received hundreds of letters and
kilograms urging me to go on with 1t,
and not one of them suggested that L
get out of it. In every case my reply
is just what said in Chicago
Interests Better.
The controller said the reason he
was anxious to make clear that Col
Roosevelt would make the fight was
that the interests which defeated
him at Chicago would do anything in
their power to keep him out of the
white house and for that purpose
would gladly accept any other pro-
gressive In Chicago, he continued,
some of the Taft leaders asked him to
go to Col. Roosevelt with the offer
to give the nomination to Gov Hadley
or any other man the colonel might
name They offered to put the Roose-
welt delegates from Texas and Wash
ington back on the list if he would
consent to this. Col. Roosevelt cor
roborated this statement and added
that the same interests were hard at
work at the Baltimore convention and
were willing to take up any of the
Democrat prOgressives if they thought
they could thus defeat him

MEXICAN INsURaENT VICTORY

The first news Of the fighting in
Mexico on Saturday and Sunday comes
apparently from the revolutionists, and
naturally they report themselves vic
torious. which it may be that the Gov
ernmental dispatches will dispute
However, indications are that the in
surgents are telling the truth, since the
details given could hardly accord with
a governmental victory.
At the same time, it is cncoura ging
to note that the negotiations for peace
are progressing, and that favorable re-
suits arc expected from them within
the next few days.
Reports of the paralyzing Of industry
and commerce in Mexico by reason of
the revolution, are so discouraging to
the financial interests, not only Of
Mexico, but of the United States. and
indeed Of the world, that undoubtedly
extraordinary efforts will be made to
stop the anarchy and confusion which
reign. A good many revolutionary
parties are in the field, and all of them

SOUND AND WE'LL SAID,

No one has given a more concise
and perfect expression of the basic diff
ference between the demagogic explo-
sions Of Col. Roosevelt and the calm,
constitutional treatment of popular
questions by President Taft, than Car
dinal O 'Connell, who was recently ele-
waited to the Cardinalate. His words,
logical, forceful, and judicial, are
worthy of every ones reading, and we
accordingly give them herewith:
THE very life OF the peoples liberties,
religious and civic. Is In danger when the
foundations Of law and the independence
OF judges. be they civil or ecclesiastical
are imperilcd,
Liberty, founded upon the eternal
principles of divine Justice, interpreted

magistrates, untrammeled and unfet-
tered, and unafraid Of popular passion

ciples more clearly, fcaressly and un

TAFT WINS IN INDIANA.

primaries in Indiana Indicate clear
victory for President TAFT Director
Mckinley, for President Taft. claims
Il majority of at least $50 in the Re
publican State Convention. which will
send four delegates at large, instructed
for Taft. He claims that it is set
tied beyond question that President
Taft will have twenty one out Of tho
thirty delegates from the State of
Indiana TO the Republican National
Convention. The Associated Press
reckons that the delegates win be
eighteen for Taft aud twelve for
Roosevelt. and il gives Taft n clear
majority of The delegates to the State

welt bureau. claims thcrcupon that
Indiana will be for Roosevelt IL is
difficult to see, however, how an ad
mitted minority of the State Conven-
tion can unseat delegates of the ma
Jority. The talk very likely means
that ii the Roosevelt crowd cannot
control the convention, they will bolt
and hold q separate convention Of their
own, thus making contested delega-
quite in accord with the rule and ruin
policy which Roosevelt seems to have
at heart.
Undoubtedly, the contest in Indiana
RACES to a considerable extent along
the old lines of cleavage in the Repub-
liean party, Senator Beveridge being
active in the support Of Roosevelt, in
spite of the throw-down which Roose-
welt gave Beveridge when he was
seeking reelection to the Senate, while
the Taft supporters were from the
Fairbanks phalanX. The conflict be.
tween Fairbanks and Beveridge is ire
presslble within the party Where
Fairbanks wins, Beveridge loses, but
where Beveridge wins, Fairbanks does
not always lose. And just now the
Fairbanks element, fighting under the
Taft banner, have won a triumphant
party victory in Indiana, aud they are
not the sort of men to be robbed of
the fruit Of that victory. They will
see that the Roosevelt crowd gains
nothing by trickery, bulldozing, or
false claims, The Fairbanks banner is

RAILROAD RATE UNIFORMITY.

The newest order of the Interstate
Commerce Commission carries to still
greater extent the obliteration Of State
lines in the railroad transportation
business. This order is succinctly stated
TO carry the principle that railroad
must SO adjust its rates that Justice
shall be done between communities, re-
gardless of State lines. That is, inter
state transportation being the great
mass of transportation in the country,
must be done under the general rules
of Interstate transportation, and State
authorities are not allowed to come be-
tween and establish either disturbing
rates or rules that may in any way lead
to the favoring Of their own communi-
ties as compared with communities
served by lines running through their
States into neighboring points.
This principle is merely carrying
step further the principle adopted in
[ he Minnesota case, against which
number Of Governors Of States have en-
tered their protest. The ruling of the
Interstate Commerce Commission was
emphatically sustained by the Circuit
Court of the United States in the Min
I.ncsota case, and it looks as though the
Supreme Court of the United States
must necessarily affirm that decision
or annuI II large portion of the unlim-
tied grant Of National power IN the
constitution to- Congress and its con
| stitutcd agencies over interstate com
merce. The Supreme Court OF the
| United States, in order to overrule the
Minnesota decision, would not only
| have TO take a clear step backward,
| but would have to reverse the current
of opinion which is and has been for a
| long time setting distinctly away from
all interference By the States with
railroad transportation, and 20 limit IN
yet more strict degree all interference
bv State authority with the railroads.
| And this is quite natural for all the
railroad companies which amount to
much i'm the transportation business are
interstate railroads, and as States ran
not interfere with them in their inter
state function, the regulation OF them
necessarily falls TO Congressional direc-
tion, and that direction tends ncces'
sariy all tho time TO be more and
more exclusive.
The railroad system Of this country
took splendid step in advance when
it shook off the State control by cou
solidating lines so that continuous
transportation service could be had. LII
former times, when one had TO change
cars every little while in order TO mcc'
the requirements of short and limited
service by any one railroad company
travelling was indeed nuisance. Now
that one can travel from one end OF
, the country TO the other almost with
out change Of cars, and without any at
tention TO one IS baggage, travelling ha
: become luxury in place of a nuisance

would be glad to avail themselves of
