ROOSEVELT THIRD-TERM stock seems to run against many snags of late, and Taft's prospects are declining at a cor- responding rate. Foraker has declared his candidacy for the Presidency and will make a fight for Ohio in order to head off Taft in the Buckeye state, from which both hail. Coxcress met on Monday and organ- ized by again electing Cannon speaker, he having received the unanimous Re- publican vote. The Democratic for speaker, was John Sharp Williams, the ablest man of the house Cannon is not much of a Roosevelt man crediting Teddy with too much assuming powers that are not warranted by the constitution, and in this Mr. Cannon has choice Speaker many Republicans of the same mind and also about the entire Democracy. On the subject of tariff revision, Mr Cannon is th a a standpatter, although legions of Re- publicans think with the Democrats that h ¢ 1¢ the tariff sorely needs revision VINDICATED.

President Roosevelt's message, al- though of great length, contains little of importance beyond what he has al- ready said in previous similar docu. ments from which copious quotations aré made, or in public addresses. Nat- urally the chief interest centers in what he has to say concerning the anti-trust corporation regulation laws and the carrency.s As to the former his utter. ances are less radical than in the past. He advocates such amendments as will permit combinations and agreements for certain legitimate purposes under such regulations as will prevent the creation of monopolies. He wants the people on one hand protected from over- charges and smaller concerns from being {driven out of business by the fixing of | too Jow rates by those which desire to {absorb them. He wants further provi- | sion made against future over-capitaliza. | tion, intimating that past «ins in this | respect will b> [condoned as far asthe | Government is concerned. He again | asksifor the chartering by the Govern- { ment of all corporations doing an inter- | state business, of the issuing of Federal licenses to'them, Asto the recent and existing business | situation he places the responsibility { upon those who have pursued evil busi- ness methods, upon the hoarders of money and the lack of proper legislation, { and repudiates the idea that his policy | of the] enforcement of the laws can be held! accountable. He recognizes the | need for an emergency currency which shall be based upon adequate security, subject to the approval of the Govern- | ment, and a heavy tax | dations on this subject are unfortunately i | His recommen- { lacking in definiteness. The desirability of tanff reform is ad- mitted by the President, but, as usual, he time wants it deferred to some future Herein he lost a great opportu ni ty to speak out for the people who are laboring under th yh largely e heavy burdens caused by the undul igh tariff, which, in fact, uld ii sh i be existing dent powers in several directions or |that s extension NeCesss He mense appropriation for case want fails to prove his the navy wig Hay Congress shoul urtail the naval and asked for by military expenditures as the President and use th wney thus saved to promote the policy of the improvement of the water ways, which favors such and he greatly Some of mendations, as those the tariff on wood pulp shoul saving banks, aboliti 1 rece able consideration.
