ers. I hope and believe that the
committees of the Senate and House
will address themselves to this mat
ter with the most fruitful results,
and I believe that the studies and
recently formed plans of the. Depart
ment of Agriculture may be made
to serve them very greatly In their
work Of framing appropriate and
adequate legislation. 1t would be
indiscreet and presumDtuous in any
n to dogmatize upon so great and
many-sided a question, but I feel
confident that common counsel will
produce the results we must all de-
sire.
Turn from the farm to the world
of business which centers in the city
and in the factory, and / think that
all thoughtful observers will agree
that the immediate service we owe
the business communities of the
opoly more effectually than it has
yet been prevented. / think it will
be easily agreed that we should let
the Sherman antitrust law stand,
unaltered, as it is with it's debatable
ground about it, but that we should
as much as possible reduce the area
of that debatable ground by further
and more explicit legislation; and
should also supplement that great
act by legislation which will not only
clarity it but also facilitate it's adj
ministration and make it fairer to
all concerned. No doubt we shall
all wish, and the country will expect,
this to be the central subject of our
deliberations during the present
session; but it is a subject 81 many
sided and so deserving of careful
and discriminating discussion that /
shall take the liberty of addressing
you upon it in a special message at
a later date than this. 1t is of capt.
tai Importance that the business
men of this country should be re-
lieved of all uncertainties of law
with regard to their enterprises and
investments and a clear path indi-
Gated which they can travel without
anxiety. It is as important that
they should be relieved of embar-
rassment and set free to prosper as
that private monopoly should be de-
stroyed. The ways of action should
be thrown wide open.
1 turn to a subject which l hope
can be handled promptly and with
out serious controversy of any kind.
l mean the method of selecting nom
inees for the Presidency of the
United States. I feel confident that
I do not m~isinterpret the wishes or
the expectations of the country when
I urge the prompt enactment of leg
islation which will provide for pri-
mary elections throughout the coun-
try at which the voters of the several
parties may choose their nominees

Ec"e, 3te Iresn pruuI vi nUI sincere
adherence to the~caasa of international
friendship by ratifying the several
treaties of arbitration awaiting re-
newal by the Senate. In addition to
these, it has been the privilege of
the Department Of State to gain the
assent, in principle, of no less than 81
nations, representing four-fifths of the
population of the world, to the ne
g~otiation of treaties by which it shall
be agreed that whenever differences
of interest or of policy arise which
can not be resolved by the ordinary
processes of diplomacy they shall be
publicly analysed, discussed, and re-
ported upon by a tribunal chosen by
the parties before either nation de-
termines its course of action.
There is only one possible standard
by which to determine controversies
between the United States and other
nations, and that is compounded Of
these two elements: Our own honor
and our obligations to the peace of
the world. A test so compounded
ought easily to be made to govern both
the establishment of new treaty OBJ
legations and the Interpretation of
those already assumed.
There is but one cloud upon our
horizon. That has shown itself to
the south of US, and hangs over Mex
leo. There can be no certain pros
pect of peace in America until Gen.
Huerta has surrendered his usurped
authority in Mexico; until it is I'M
derstood on all hands, indeed, that
such pretended governments will not
be countenanced or dealt with by the
Government of the United States. We
are the friends of constitutional gov
eminent in America; we are more
than its friends, we are it's champions;
because in no other way can our
neighbors, to whom we would wish
In every way to make proof Of our
friendship, work out their own de-
velopment in peace and liberty. Mex
leo has no Government. The attempt
to maintain one at the City of Mes.,o
has broken down, and a mere military
despotism has been set up which has
hardly more than the semblance of ma
tional authority. 1t originated in the
u~surpation of V~ictoriano Huerta, who.
after a brief attempt to play the part
of constitutional President, has at
last cast aside even the p~retense of
legal right and declared himself die
tator. AS a consequence, a condition
of affairs now exists in Mexico which
has made it doubtful whether ever
the most elementary and fundamental
rights either of her own people or
of the citizens of other countries resi-
dent within her territory can long be
successfully safeguarded, and which
threatens, if long continued, to i'm.
