THE PDPE GROWS WORSE
Chronic Bright's Disease OF More
Than a Years Standing Back
of Present Relapse

Rome. April 1O.-At 4 o'clock this morning
the Pope's temperature had risen to lOS. Al
though his fever had risen constantly during
the past two hours and a half, It was said that
the patient was not in distress and appeared
to be in as satisfactory condition as could be
expected.
Professor Marchiafava admitted early this
morning, after a visit to the Papal chamber
that His Holiness was suffering from milan
nation of the kidneys, complicated with
dropsy OF Il cardiac origin.
This was taken as confirmation Of the wide
ly circulated report during the early evening
that the Pontif was known to be suffering
with chronic Bright's disease Of over a years
standing.
Not Assured By Bulletins
Rome, April 9.-The official reassurine
statements issued to-day concerning the Pcpe's
condition failed to change the general impress
sion that has prevailed in Rome for the past
three days that the Pontiffs condition Is far
more serious THAI those at the Vatican are will
to admit.
In some quarters the admission during the
day by those who surround the Pope are con-
sidered even more disquieting than the alarm
ing reports Of yesterday.
According to an authoritative evening paper
here the ambassadors and ministers Of the
Vatican last night wired their respective gov
ernments that the Pope was not thought to be
able to live out the month.
The most important development to-day
was the disclosure from an authoritative
ing Bright's disease, from which the Pope is
now suffering, is not of recent origin, bus that
it has been chronic for some time.

Fears Capitalization of Monopoly

Consciously or unconsciously, we have
built up a set of privileges and exemptions
from competition behind which it was easy by
any. even the crudest, forms of combination
to organize monopoly; until at last nothing
is normal, nothing is obliged to stand the tests
of efficiency and economy, in our world of big
business, but everything thrives by concerted
arrangement. Only new principles Of action
will save rs from q final hard capitalization
OF monopoly and a complete loss of the in
f~uences that quicken enterprise and keep in
dependent energy alive.
1t is plain what those pr nciples must be.
We must abolish everything that bears even
the semblance Of privilege or of any kind of
artificial advantage, and put our business men
and producers under the stimulation Of a con-
slant necessity to b. efficient. economical and
enterprising. masters of competitive su-
premacy, better workers and merchants than
any in the world.
Aside from the duties laid upon articles
which We do not, and probably can not, pro-
duce, therefore, and the duties laid upon lux
uries and merely for the sake of the revenues
they yield. the object of the tariG duties
henceforth laid must be effective competition,
the whetting of American wits by contest with
the wits of the rest of the world.

President Wilson's Message

1 Inn very glad indeed to have this oppor-
tunity to address the two Houses directly and
to verify for myself the impression that the
President Of the United States ia a person,
not a mere department of the Government,
hailing Congress from some isolated island of
jealous power, sending messages, not speaking
naturally and with his own voice; that he is
a human being trying to cooperate with
other human beings in a common service.
After this pleasant experience. / shall feel
quite normal in all our dealings with one
another.
1 have called the Congress together in extra
ordinary session because a duty was laid upon
the party now in power at the recent elections
which it ought to perform promptly. In or
der that the burden carried by The People
under existing law may be lightened as soon
as possible and in order. also, that the business
interests of the country may not be kept too
long in suspense as to what the fiscal changes
are to be to which they will be required to
adjust themselves.

Now direct Patronage"

We have seen tariff legislation wander very
far afeld in our day-very far indeed from
the field in which our prosperity might have
had a normal growth and stimulation. No
one who looks the facts square!y in the face
or knows anything that lies beneath the sur
face of action can fail to perceive the prin-
ciples upon which recent tariff legislation has
been based.
We long ago passed beyond the modest no
tion of protecting the industries of the
country and moved boldly forward to the idea
that they were entitled to the direct patron
age of the Government.
For a long time-a time so long that the
men now active in public policy hardly re-
member the conditions that preceded tive
have sought in our tariff schedules to give
each group of manufacturer or producers
what they themselves thought that they need
ed in order to maintain a practically exclusive
market as against the rest of the world.

AUTOISTS In
BIG JOY RIDE

Average Time Run" Planned
by Delaware Automobile
Association for May "a
MANY TROPHIES TO ADD
TO SUCCESS OF JAUNT

The Delaware Automobile Associa-
ton has decided to give a run to
Dover and return on Saturday, May
"a. which it is believed will be the
largest ever given by the association.
Charles G.. Guyer secretary of the as
sociation, is now working on some
of the details, and the arrangements
will be shaped by committee named
for that purpose.
The runs given by the Delaware
Automobile Association in the past
have proved exceedingly popular and
many autoists have wondered why
they have not been conducted at more
frequent intervals. Arrangements
for such a run involve a lot Of work,
especially when checking stations
have to be designated the running
time between such stations computed,
and detailed reports of the time made
by each participant between checking
stations compiled and compared.
The run next month, however, will
be different Il will be known as an
average time run" and will be the
first contest Of that kind conducted
by the association. 1t is proposed
that the automobiles shall go 10 Dover
by way Of Newark and Middletown
and shall return by way OF Odessa
and Delaware City Each driver may
travel as fast or as slowly as he
pleases, so long as he is within the
legal speed limit. There will be nc
checking stations except to verify that
the cars have followed the prescribed
route. The time of each cars departure
from Wilmington. arrival i'm Dover
departure from Dover and arriya
back in Wilmington, will be taken
Then the time of all cars Will be add

the number Of cars participating. thg

era, trophies will be awarded for the
