ROOSEVELT NEAR END OF TRIP
Colonel Will Have Visited Twenty
Seven States When He Arrivsi
Home In Oyster Bay Wednesday.
Asked for an interview on the pres
ent political situation President Taft
said In part:
"A chief Issue of the most Inmiedl
ate Importance In this campaign in
my opinion Is whether we shall allow
prosperity to remain and expand cr
whether wo shall halt it by our politl
cal election. . -
"And prosperity is here. Evidence;!
of industrial activity are abundant
Commerce has grown by leaps and
bounds. The great transportation sys
tems of the country are hard presse
to move the myriads of products thrt t
enter into interstate commerce. The
activities of the financial institutions
that furnish the funds for the success
ful raising of various branches of busi
ness has never been so extensive. The
workingman and mechanic has never
been before so well and steadily em
ployed noi so well paid."
The president declares that the de
mand for labor is greatly In excess of
the supply and asks who would dis
turb these conditions. He declares
that the only one danger that menaces
prosperity Is the putting the Demo
crats completely in control .of all
branches of the government. He con
eludes:
"Let us cultivate prosperity by
maintaining our present economic
business basis and by the encourage
ment of business expansion and
progress through legitimate use of
capital."

months, has heretofore been snlficent
to protect the customs houses located
In the coast towns. Recently, how
ever, the revolutionary activity has
been Increasing nnd the interior cus
toms houses on the mountnlnous
border between Ilaytl and Santo Do
mingo have been threatened.
In addition to the revolutionary
activity there has been more or less

a year ago several American customs
officials were killed in a clash with
the smugglers.

PARADE BROKEN '
UP POLICE
Big Fight in Lawrence; Two
Officers Stabbed
COPS MAGE SEVERAL OF MOB
Industrial Workers of .he World Pre
vented From Marching to Cemetery
to Decorate Strike Victims' Graves.
Police and paraders fought with
knives and clubs at Lawrence, Mass.,
prior to a demonstration by members
of the Industrial Workers of the
World.
Two officers were stabbed, a num
ber of demonstrators were clubbed
and a labor leader captured after a
hard fight and then freed. Two ar
rests were made. One shot was fired
from the ranks of the paraders.
Carlo Tresca, an organizer of the
Industrial Workers, was In custody,
but gained his freedom a minute or
two later. Persons who saw Tresca's
arrest said he was rescued by com
rades. Tresca, with a smile, Bald the
police let him go.
The clash was unexpected. More
than 5,000 operatives met In the rail
road station to welcome 700 members
of the Industrial Workers of the
World, who had come from Boston to
participate in a parade to the graves
ot Anna Loplzzo and Johnny Ramy,
who were killed during the strike riots
In January. After the visitors had de
trained an impromptu parade was
started, finally turning Into Essex
street.
When the head of the parade
reached Essex street a line ot officers
halted it and an argument began. The
police notified the marchers that they
must disperse because they had no
permit. Those in the front rank were
endeavoring to fall back when sudden
ly the marchers In the rear pressed
forward and the mill workers tried to
pass the police.
They struck right and left at the of
ficers, who responded by swinging
their clubs. Many paraders were
knocked bleeding to the ground. In
some Instances the marchers robbed
the officers of their clubs and began
to beat the police. The latter were
forced to retreat Into Lawrence street.
It was here that Tresca was seized by
the officers, who started with him to
ward the police station.
Angered by the arrest of their leader
the crowd made a rush for the police,
who appeared to be fighting to hold
the prisoner, but a moment or two
later Tresca was at liberty.
During the fight two Italians wera
arrested and taken to the station
house. As they were being taken
through the door of the station a re
volver shot was heard. It appeared to
have been fired by someone In the
crowd.
Later the crowd was driven onto tho
common, where the paraders dis
persed.
After the excitement was over Po
liceman Thomas McCarthy discovered
that he had been cut on the head and
had also received a slight stab wound
behind the ear. Another policeman,
whose name was withheld, received
two slight stab wounds In the back.
