COLONEL ROOSEVELT
TALKS TO THE FARMERS
"The Man Who Makes a Huge Profit Out
of the War Is an Enemy of His
Country" the Colonel
Declares.

| Chatham, n. Y, Sept, 5-Theodore
Roosevelt, in a speech here to-day at the
Columbia county fair, on Americas part
in the war, urged enactment by Congress
of legislation which would prohibit pub
lication of newspapers printed in the
tongue of any nation with which the
United States is at war.
Besides insisting upon undivided Amer
icanism Colonel Roosevelt said the
farmer and the wage Garner must receive
| justice By direct action of the state.
the farmer should be secured from ex.
ploitation, he declared, and producer and
consumer brought together without pay
ing toll to those middlemen who do not
serve useful purpose
"The man who makes huge profit out
of the war; the colonel continued, sis an
enemy of his country; and an organiza-
| tion like the Industrial Workers of the
World, which is playing the German
game in this country, and whose preach
ing and practice spell destruction to civil
ization, is as much an enemy to this
country as a hostile army
"The unscrupulous profiteers and the
workingmen who refuse to do first class
work for first class wage are really the
allies of our enemies; and of course the
pro-Germans, the professional pacifists,
the men who wish an ineonclusive peace
or peace without victory, the Indus

BRADSHAW MURDER
JURY is COMPLETED
Defense Claims Mrs. Kenerson Had No
Hand in the Murder of Alice Brad
shaw--First Witness Testifes.

St. Johnsbury, Sept. Slate yester
day afternoon the jury was completed il
the Bradshaw murder aa5e after over q
talesmen had been excused by the court
and seven jurors challenged by the at
torneys in the case.
States Attorney Campbell outlined
the case, stating that the evidence of the
state would show that the respondent
Mrs. Sarah Isabel kenerson, had volun'
tarily admitted that she killed Alice
Bradshaw, that she helped carry the child
TO another spot, and that later she asked
John kerwin to help her carry the body
to the farm of Ellery Gray, where it was
found on Aug. 0, FIVE weeks after the
murder Their evidence would further
show that the child, owing to her physi-
cal condition, could never have gone to
this place alone and that she had never
walked more than a mile since her Sc.
we're attack of infantile paralysis.
David T.. Portef, in outlining the evil
dence that the defense would introduce,
said they would show that the child left
her home alone that afternoon, that the
respondent knew she had disappeared and
telephoned the next day to see if she had
been found. Further, that respondent
knows nothing about any inldries being
inflicted upon the child and that the al
legged confession was made to deputy
sheriff after she had been told that Eta
May Hicks, also indicted for the murder,
had made full confession, Mr.. Porter
said the defense would also chow that
the respondent when filed with terror at
her arrest without a warrant, and that
she answered the questions just as the
officers wanted her to. Further, that she
had nothing to do with the death of the
child, whom she loved, and no one
thought so until the officers induced her
to make a series of confessions, which
were contradictory and untrue, and any
evidence tending to show that she hid
the body was manufactured and given
solely to obtain favor.
To much of Mr.. Porter's statement, |
Attorney General Barber strenuously OBJ
iected and several exceptions were al
lowed by the court.
The only witness yesterday afternoon
was Nathan Bess, who testified TO hav-
ng seen Alice Bradshaw at home early |
n the afternoon on the day OF the all
eyed murder, and returning by the house
.wo hours later, in his automobile, he
lid not see her there. II il expected the
