ROOSEVELT URGES FEDERAL CON. |
TROL
Mr. Roosevelt visited another state
capital. He came into Minnesota with
the cheers of the west still ringing in
his ears. He was received by thou
sands of men and women, who were
wild in their enthusiasm.
It was the grandest reception that
the colcnel has yet encountered on
his tour, and no one realized it better
than he.
The colonel talked conservation in
| H. de Vere Stacpoole’s fascinating romance “The
the local governments of Canada and
Newfoundland. i
Neither country wins a clear-cut
sward.
The general issue was presented in
the form of seven questions or points.
On these the tribunal supports the
United States in five and Great Bri
tain in the other two.
The British consider thé points de-
cided in their favor, Nos. 1 and 5, as
of the highest importance, and it is
understood that the colonial office is
satisfled with the outcome.
On No. 1. however, the United States
has raised certain questions of equity,
which will be submitted to a special
commission.
It is also significant that the court |
was unanimous on all questions ex-
cept the fifth, and from the decision
of this Luis Drago, member from the
Argentine Republic, gave a dissenting |
opinion larzely supporting the Ameri.
can contentions.
On all others of the main questions |
the tribunal sustains the principal con-
tentions of America. The court finde |
that the claims of Great Britain to N
right to prohibit American vessels |
from employing foreigners, and to im- |
men.

Searching on their hands and knees
through the wet bush, they found two
caps, such as Italian laborers com

try; two red bandanna handkerchiefs |
which had been plerced with eyeholes |
and used for masks; the scattered
. fragments of an envelope and the let

| the scrap strewn spot, a tiny clearing
surrounded by almost impenetrable |
thickets of thornbush where the rob-
bers had made camp while they waited |
for young Fowler's buggy.

shot dead and robbed by masked men

St. Paul, ana he took occasion to en-
dorse part of President Taft's address,
but he was careful his praise did not
go far. His position in regard to the
control of natural resources was made
unmistakibly clear, for he hemmered
away at that phase of the new na-
| tionalism that insists that federal con-
trol shall be stronger than state con-
trol.
{ When he did refer to Mr. Taft and
the reference was a compliment, dele
gates and the thousands in the galler-
ies cheered. The reference was an in-
terpolation in the former president's | ania
| set speech. It was:
| “Much that I have to say on the
subject of conservation will be but a
repetition of what was so admirably
| said from this platform Monday.”
Again he sald:
“All friends of comservation should
be in heartiest agreement with the
| policy which the president laid down
in connection with the coal, oil and
phosphate lands, and 1 am glad to be
able to say that at its last session con-
| gress finally completed the work of
separating the surface title to the land
! from the mineral beneath it.”
Strong For National Control.
The question of federal or state con-
The tribunal finds that the regula-
tion of the manner, time and imple,
ments of fishing which Great Britain |
or Newfoundland enforces must be!
reasonable and appropriate, but Great |
Britain cannot be the sole judge of
their reasonableness.
In case of disagreement the question |
must be determined by an impartial |
tribunal like The Hague, or a special |
commission.
On question six, which presented |
the claim of Great Britain to exclude
fishermen from the bays and harbors
on the treaty coasts of Newfoundland |
and the Magdaler islands, the tribu-
nal declares, without qualification, in|
favor of America.
Dealing with question five, which |
was decided adversely to the United
States, the court followed the strict |
letter of the British-American treatv, |
whereby America renounced the right
to fish in any bays on non-treaty |
coasts.
The court holds that this renuncie- | i
tion applied to all bays, irrespective
of their size, instead of to small bays
only, as was contended by the Ameri-
cans. The arbitrators were not ngsl;
mous on this question.
Regarding point one, on which the |
American counsel have raised ques-
tions of equity, the tribunal holds that;
the right of Great Britain to make |
fishing regulations without the consent |
of America is inherent in her sover-
eignty.
But in the exercise of the right to
make limited regulations these must
not violate the treaty of 1818 or be
so framed as to give the local fisher-
men an advantage over the Ameri
cans.
The provisions of the award apply
not only to future legislation by the
imperial government and the colonies,
but require that the existing statutes
and regulations, to which the Ameri.
cans have objected, be submitted to a
commission which shall judge of their
reasonableness, necessity and fairness
in the light of the principles laid down
by the tribunal.
In connection with its decision that
the reasonableness of the fishing regu-
lations must be determined through
expert information the tribunal directs
the appointment of a commission of
specialists, calls upon America and
Great Britain to designate their com-
missioners within a month, and ap-
points as a third commissioner Dr.
Hoek, scientific adviser of fisheries of
the Netherlands.

The Silver Bow saloon, at Silve~
Bow, a railroad junction seven miles
west of Butte, Mont., was held up by
three masked bandits and robbed. A
man believed to be U. V. Sims failed
to respond to the command to throw
up his hands and was shot dead. Three
suspects were arrested later near Sil-
ver Bow.

James R. Keene III.
James R. Keene, the noted New
York financier and horseman, was
taken seriously ill with pneumonia at
the Phoenix hotel, in Lexington, Ky.
Physicians were summoned, and his
brother-in-law, Major F. A. Dainger
field, hurried over to the scene in au
automobile from his country estate at
Casteleton, near Lexington.
Mr. Keene arrived here from New
York, accompanied only by his valet
After an examination the physicians
announced Mr. Keene's condition t

' boat on the Pennypack creek, near
Holmesburg.
The fatal shot was fired by William
Campbell. The third man in the boat
was Charles Schaeffer. Campbell and
Schaeffer were almost in a state of
collapse when they gave themselves
up te the police at the Tacony station.
They said that Fleeson was sitting,
| gun in hand, in the bow of the skiff.
| Campbell and Schaeffer were in the
| stern, the latter poling. Fleeson spied
a covey of reed birds close by and
rose to his feet, putting his gun to
his shoulder to shoot. Campbell saw
the birds simultaneously and, taking
quick aim, blazed away.
The charge entered the back of
| Fleeson's head and he dropped back-
ward into the boat at the feet of his
horrified friends. Death was instanta-
neous, the shot, fired at such close
range, carrying away part of Fleeson’s
skull.
New Head of Mines Bureau.
Dr. J. A. Holmes, chief of the tech-
nological branch of the geological sur-
vey, was appointed by President Taft
director of the new bureau of mines.
He succeeds George Otis Smith, who
has been acting director since July 1.
The appointment of Dr. Holmes
came as a complete surprise. He was
known as one of the men in the in-
terior department who was regarded
by Secretary Ballinger as inimical to
| him. He was labeled by Mr. Ballinger
i as one of the “snakes” whom he in-
tended to “kill.”
Heaviest Baby Girl.
A girl weighing fifteen pounds and
fourteen ounces was born to Mr. and
Mrs. Michael J. McGinty, of Frank

curate scales by Dr. H. P. Hammond
of Franklin, who says he believes this
a record for girls. The medical records
tell of a few boys weighing sixteen
pounds, but no girls weighing within
three or four pounds of that figure.

trol of water power sites is the one
before the congress that has given
rise to the most animosity. The presi-
dent avoided committing himself on
this point, leaving it for congress to
decide. The colonel declared himself
vigorously for federal control. In this
connection he said:
“There is apparent to the judicious
observer a distinct tendency on the
part of our opponents to cloud the is-
sue by raising the question of state as
against federal jurisdiction. We are
ready to meet that issue if it is forced
upon us. But there is no hope for the
plain people in such conflicts of juris-
dictions.
“The essential question is not ome
of hair-splitting legal technicalities. It
is simply this: Who can best regulate
the special interests for the public
good? Most of the predatory corpora-
tions are interstate of have interstate
affiliations. Therefore they are largely
out of reach in effective state control,
and fall of necessity within the feueral
jurisdiction. The most effective wea-
pon against these great corporations,
most of which are financed and owned
on the Atlantic coast, will be federal
laws and the federal executive. That
is why I so strongly oppose the de-
mand to turn these matters over to the .
sta
In a number of other parts of his
speech Colonel Roosevelt showed that
his attitude was for strong national
control. He made a strong plea for the
development and regulation of all the
waterways and urged specifically that
these be guarded from the “interests”
and that the railroads be prevented
from controlling them in the future as
they have in the past.
Here the president injected extem-
poraneously: “There are classes of
which can always go
cheaper and better by water if there
is an adequate waterway, and the ex-
istence of such type of waterway in
itself helps to regulate railroad rates.”
| He declared that any railroad con-
nection with water lines should be un-
der the “strictest regulation of the in
' terstate commerce commission.” He
| also asserted that the necessity of
' federal control of the forests had been
proved and urged the formation of a

stroke of good luck, due directly to an | | federal bureau of health, declaring the
act of generosity. Attracted by a lit- financial waste to the nation in sick-

Car Kills Trapped Man.
Siler Cole,, a yard conductor for the
Buffalo & Susquehanna railroad, was
held prisoner in a frog until run down
by a car at Galeton, Pa. His leg was
crushed to the hip and he. died...
He was a grandson of
of representatives by a congressman
from Minnesota of an amendment to
' the civil service bill, which, he said,
‘was designed to put an end to the
work of the commission. His recital
! threw the croavd into an uproar. A man
fn the balcony shouted: “Now what do
i you think of Tawney?”
The colonel went on to say that the
| subject came up just at the close of his
| term in the White House. If he had re-
br mained precident, he said, he would
have paid no attention to this provis-
| fon of law. because he believed it fn
be unconstitutional. This declaration
was applauded loudly.
Nearly 100,000 Greet T. R.
| The conservation congress, while it
was a big affair, didn't compare with
the teremendous cryowd that Mr
Roosevelt faced at the Minnesota state
fair grounds. A gathering estimated at
between 95,000 and 100,000 persons
jammed themselves into the enclosure
and most of them heard the colonel
make a long speech. The management
declared that Roosevelt drew the larg
est crowd of persons that ever this
state heard of.
In the hotel! lobbies and om the
streets one hears arguments as to who
drew the greater crowds, Roosevelt or
Taft The consensus of opinion very
strongly favors Roosevelt. It was a re
spectable. cordial reception that Mr.
Taft got. Roosevelt got the whoops
and the shouts. .
