unUST IllfnppyJ FAMILY RuroYG come for a trip to Toyland and a peep at the many delightful which Santa Claus pre for enriching the youthful Christmas His enchanted castle brilliantly lighted la filled with an endless variety of toys and as the visitor passes through the main avenues In this wonderful world the opcctaclo becomes more and more entrancing Numberless fairy lamps lead tho way to whero the mechanical and electrical toys are stored and what an imposing array they make Tho place ceems full of motor cars motor omnibuses and motor boats darting here thero and everywhere at tho bidding of their miniature drivers The wireless telegraph Is busy sending messages and the Wlms burst machine with Its glssler tubo Is produc ing tho most beautiful colors as though by lightning Close at hand are scores of different kinds of steam enginesmodels of perfectionto gether with railway carriages stations tunnels signals and all tho rest of it Just like a real rallwar dyer there we catch a glimpse of the Xrays a complete plating machine and hundreds of electrical toys which are going to bo all tho rage this season among those who can be favored with costly playthings Somo of tho engines como to as much as ten guineas but tbo smaller models can be bad for a very trl fling sum An adjoining room wears quite a military aspect with Its thousands of leaden soldiers In full dress looking very fierce and brave No doubt they will bo pleased to receive march- Ing orders and show what they can do with their rifles swords and real cannon You can tell they are like real soldiers because they donX seem to mind a bit being placed In the midst of all sorts of animals such aa elephants lions tigers bears leopards and monkeys The elephants trumpet tho lions and tigers roar tho bears growl the horses neigh tbo donkeys bray tho dogs bark the cats meow and all the rest do their full share towards swelling the uproar but it makes no difference to the soldiers A little further on taxicabs dodgo In and out of miniature garages and skillfully steer their way between London county council electric trams AH the drivers are really very clover InToylandA of spirited rocking horses and prancing geegees marks the way to the dolls palaces This Is essentially the girls domain It Is scarcely possible to conceive anything which Is not here represented Some of the houses are largo enough to bo called mansions They are provided with a complete staff of ser vants au ample larder a thousand and one little com forts and to round off the luxury of it all a smart motor car stands at the front en trance awaiting the appearance of my lord and lady Was there ever such a show of dolls seen before They seem to be everywhere display ing their finery Tho undress doll Is away on a top shelf because the popular dolt must be In the fashion in tho way of dress Tho adult doll with hair done In the latest style is one of the features of the place Baby dolls are apt to be tiresome but the grown ups aro always on their best behavior Of course the universal ambition to soar in the air is represented In Toyland otherwise the place would be incomplete tops which fly up to tho ceiling tops which ring in tho air plums apples pears and other fruit dance about most goyly Swimming men dancing Scotchmen snowballs stuffed with small toys and humptydumpty circuses como in view as you wander along while games galore call aloud for Inspection Toyland certainly never was so full of splendid things for those who can spend dollars and cents Take another turn however and wo como to Tiny Town where the purchasing power of the penny Is best represented Sets of kitchen utensils traction engines gunboats cruisers motor omnibuses railway engines black smiths sawyers county council trams light houses dancing ballet girls dolls furniture sewing sets gold fishes In globes minus tho elaborate mechanism of the more expensive type but all made to work Comical figures magnetic divers shooting galleries skin ani mals and hundreds of musical contrivances are priced at a few cents In the course of a short ramble through Toy land It Is impossible for us to see all that is to be seen but It Is clear that Santa Claus has never had such a busy tlmo In making ar rangements for his Christmas eve visit Tho seasonaccording to tile great toy emporiums whoso wonderful stocks are reviewed above will probably mako a record from the business standpoint Each succeeding year brings a growth In the demand for better class toys and it Is n happy circumstance that the English maker Is awakening to the possibility of big business in this direction Tho German snatched the soldier trade from the French and for years maintained a practical monopoly but In turn tho German has been completely ousted by tbo Englishman- In some of the largest toy places In London this Christmas not a single foreign made uol dler will be sold The same success Is apparently awaiting English enterprise In regard to dolls houses Germany still holds the field as regards dolls A WELL AP RAGED Y but in the course of tlmo even this phase of Toyland may undergo a change Games bid fair to become extremely popular Dlabolo or the devil on two sticks has already captured Paris and tho demand in London suggests the likelihood of Its becoming a great craze there At a moment when tho toy Industry in France is on the wane the famous caricaturist Caran dAche comes to the rescue Being medically forbidden to follow his art ho turned as a hobby to making wooden animals Unable to repress tho humorous strain In his soul ho im parted to his creations a mlrth provoking char actor which has already made them tho rago of Paris and to Judge from the Burlington Arcade they will ere long become quite a craze inLondonFrom cheap mechanical toy which Im pedes our progress through tho streets as dis played tA the pavement by tho enterprising camelot to the wonderful creations which tho Nain Bleu that paradise of French children for nearly a century has provided for tho pampered darlings of the wealthy the predominat ing element in tho French toy of today is mechanical Ingeunlty Never has this been more noticeable than in tho novelties which the manufacturers aro preparing for tho coming holidaysThe average French maker of toys scorns to otter tho little ones such simple things as our childhood know and tho wooden doll and woolly baalamb are to bo found only In the poorer districts Dolls made of wood there are but tho wood Is only a casing for wonderful works and tho lamb must bo llfoslie and oblo at least to frisk Among the morc expeuslvo toys and one which will give the small boy with a gun an opportunity to prove himself a crack shot is the pigeon shooting device which is an attrac tive novelty Upon a polo about eight feet In height a crossbar Is amxed much after tho fashion of a parrots perch except that tho crosspiece Is mobile and is made to swing in a circular direction by means of a simple arrangement of weights like thoso of a cuckoo clock At each end of the crossbar is a colored cardboard pigeon with outspread wings The machinery is set in motion and a wo11 directed shot from a toy gun knocks the bird down Miniature afttomobllcs there are In plenty but the latest thing In the toy motorcar JIM Is run by electricity and has If you please a powerful electric headlight and movable hood It Is doubtful however If even so mag nificent a plaything as this can havo tho at traction for The uptodate youngster which was provided by tho little tin automobllo a catastrophe which was tho

cupants were hurled Into the air and fell In pitiful heaps beside tho machine Sometimes tbu rcalUm was so Intenr that the luckless motorists fall under tho shattered machine and then their fate was too horrible to dwell upon You picked up tho pieces and put them together and revived tho doll corpses and set tho car going again and so on You could havo tho most exciting accidents alt day long But automobiles are vleux Jon now and even steering balloons of tho Santos Dumont typO no longer find favor with the toy manufacturers This Christmas tho Petit Noelwho Is tho French childs Santa Claus will scatter toy aeroplanes along his path To be sure they have to bo suspended by n string from the chandelier but if tho string Is a black thread It Is hardly visible and the illusion quite successful Apropos of flying things tho top of that denomination which figures among tho novelties Is a most fascinating affair though why top Is not clear A light metal disc mado to represent a bird or a butterfly with wingtips upon a ring Is placed upon the floor What appears to be a wand finished with a rubber cup is pressed against the center of tho disc and briskly withdrawn Tho disc whirls rapidly and rises In tho air flying off In various directions Since tho French caricaturists exhibition this spring when Caran dAcbos wooden toys created a furore and nil the world of fashion flocked to see tho show ant admire his regi ment of General Bourn tut celebrated artists toys have become a crane with grown folk and children alike Tho playthings which Caran dAche has fash toned In wood for tho season of gifts are in tho form of groups representing hunting parties In which European rulers aro the principal figures Thus wo see his majesty King Edward arrayed In kilts accompanied by a brawny Highlander shooting over tho moors Wondering pheas ants like barnyard fowl are grouped at the hunters feet and gaze in astonishment at tho alert dogs which point in most thorough fash Ion Tho

of a more strict regulation of the liquor traffic some favoring out and out prohibition one of the bishops de Glared himself opposed to the mo ures advocated because he would rftjj er see England drunk and than en slaved Ills view was that men should not bo forced into sobriety and that any legislation that compelled men to glvo up drink would bo oppressive Men should bo left free to use It or not as they pleased It they were compelled to stop using It you made slaves of them Ho would rather seo a nation of drunkards than a nation of slaves This utterance has often been quot ed and by many people has been re garded as containing great wisdom Is It presumptuous to declare now that It was a most unwise utterance and that It will stand any careful con sideration asks Temperance Let ufe look and see First of all there Is a wide space be tween slavery and drunkenness If the latter is put down it does not fol low that tho nation is to be enslaved for there can bo no restriction of tho liquor traffic severe or mild without the consent of the people The ma jority of the peoplo have to approve or condemn such legislation before It can be mado effective Then restrictive legislation Is not comethlng now for tho state urges the passage of very stringent laws whenever public health and public safety are put In peril If It can be shown that the liquor traffic has become a menace to the welfare of society there can be no question as to the propriety of restrictive legislation It It can bo shown to be so Injuri ous as to Imperil a large number In every community and to add to the expense of government and if a majority ot tho people decide to put It down completely who will question their right to do soT Suppose that the most radical prohibitory measures prevail In any place who are enslaved by such meas urea T Certainly not the majority who favored the law not the minors whom guardians are eager to keep from de basing Influences and not that large Dumber who are indifferent one way or the other la It tho habitual drunkard T Under previously existing laws he can bo shut up In jail now for intern peranco and deprived of his liberty for weeks and months It Is no more like slavery to prevent his having the drink than to shut him up for making bad uso of It later on The parties who are likely to cry out slavery aro those who are In the liquor business and also that por ion of tho community who claim the right to use Intoxicants as they please In large or In smalt quantities Tho former regard legislation generally as interfering with their bust ness and the latter think their personal liberty Is abridged The whole matter comes back to the starting point that the majority must rule If tho majority believe It Is for the best Interests of the community to restrict or to abolish tho liquor traffic that then becomes tho law and all must obey There Is no slavery In obeying law If one does not like a law let hint labor to have It repealed but while It Is the law ho Is expected to keep It It is simply absurd to raise the cry of slavery just because laws may be enacted which some do not like Liquor Drinkers and Life Insurance Lira Insurance companies are adopt tag stronger measures for tho examina tion of moderate drinkers One of the largest companies now declares that no saloonkeeper or brewer Is rich enough to got a policy with them while even those who drink with mod oration aro considered poor risks What Is true of this company Is con sidered true of all others Somo now require an agreement that If death results rem drink their policy becomes void In thin connection It will be remembered that Sir Thomas Whit taken who Is a medical examiner for A life Insurance company that has separate classes for abstainers and so called moderate drinkers says states tics compiled for many years past show that teetotalers lire from 25 to 30 per cent longer than drinkers Drink the Greatest National Menace I have been made a teetotaler said a United States senator not long ago by the sight of the hangerson of the average saloon Every average class saloon has a clientele of poor wretcheu whore appetite for drink has got tho better of them Many of these unfortunates have still more unfor tunate families dependent upon them The total aggregate of those human wrecks Is much greater than the na tons standing array This Is too great x price

Admission 15 Cents Description of this great masterpiece When some great Bible atory Is set to music It Is called an oratorio Christ was tho Messiah and so tho Star of Christ set to music was called The Oratorio of The Messiah The music was written one hundred and sixtyseven years ago by George Fredrick Handel who lived In the an clout town of Hallo Germany Ho was a great musician and wrote a great deal of splendid music but by this work he Is best known There are two reasons why the Messiah has become the most univer sally known and appreciated of all o atorios and why It lives and Is being sung so ninny years after the man who wrote It died The first reason Is the greatnosa of the theme For In all ages wherever men and women may be found who feel tho burdens of sorrow and sin nnd who Hunger and thirst after righteousness there Is this massage ot Christ tho 1lo the molt vital the most Important and tie most uplifting of all messages iron God to mon And It Is because all men every whore though sinful In their motives have a deep desire for righteousness that there Is such universal Interest In the story of The Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world Handels flint great success In this work was tho selection ot the theme The words are taken front those yer i1 soil of the Bible which foretell th coming ot Christ and tell of his birth Ills sorrowful but triumphant life and his glorious resurrection The second reason for the success and long life of this work Is tho beauty and grauduro of the music wtilch In turn no doubt Is largely due to the first reason for Its success Ig the greatness of the theme For it s certain that In no other work ot this author does he so nearly roach the sublime as he does In such choruses as Behold the lamb of God an Tho Hallelujah chorus and ale III lu solos like He Shall Feed Flock and lie Was re plsed and Rejected of Men- The human side ot Handel is shpwn r In the tact that some of his music Is light and rather meaningless In char after being florid and showy This characteristic II doubtless duo to the Influence upon him ot the Italian school of music which wrote to please + the light shallow taste of the people of that time This tendency Is Illustrated In such h putts of tine Messiah as the Jlrst part of the chorus All We Like Sheep Have Gone stray But hero he is nU at his best and It is in such previouslyldemand of his time for mere show and proves himself a great genius Perhaps thorn is no other oratorio so often given or so thoroughly enjoy ed by all classes ot people whether i educated musically or not as Is the Messiah Not only every city r many towns and villages have theirI oratorio societies which at q time will bo elnglng this story ot the coming of Christ I The word of the opening lenor are taken from Islah 401 and soloI Ing could be more restful more j Ing or more expressive of sympathy for the weary soul than this mess i age Comfort Ye Comfort Ye My F People followsfI over peace love and harmony to come with the I promised Messiah L Following this Is a grand chorus i 1 In which all break forth singing And I 1theglory of the Lord shall be reveal and all flesh shall see it together itorthe mouth of the Lord hath spoken L Its would be Impossible to consider each number of this great work in f detail but some parts aro so sublime omissiontThe first part of the work Is taken up with the prophecies telling ot f the coming of Christ the story of his I andtvmY j earthVI e2lstt work of Christ Then shall the eyes i of the blind be opened nnd the carsII of the deaf unstopped Following this Is that most beauti ful ot soloo He shall feed his flock tike a shepherd Here we see Handel z at Ills beast nil perhaps In no other part of this work 1 The second part opens with Be I Y hold the Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of tho world Hero r begins tho sadness ot tho story and t this and grows until JJnnltejlath03oti I V I rt J f f h i 5 k D c t borno our griefs and carried our sorrows lint in the last lialt ot this part Christ bursts the bonds of the tomb and arises triumphant over death and the grave And we hear his praises sung In the most Inspiring of chorus os Hallelujah for the Lord God om nipotent rolgneth Then follows the third part that sweet assuring solo I know that my Redeemer LIvoth and the oratorio nieces with a grand chorus Worthy- Is

GEORGE A POST Prelilcnl Railway mils Asiorlailon rTl I HE railroad problems of the future are radically different from those of the past Xot the of the wilderness j not the of the cast and west but the of a vastly system which shall concentrate every device of modern science to the increase of celerity in movement of traffic We must have more tracks j freight tracks of passenger tracks devices of at junction points mechanism at terminals and more and better It is upon these great of that the American people and their should concentrate their attention the problems born of pique or which have made recent railroad discussion at once tragic The crying need of the hour is that officials and the public in railroad shall show not their power but their wisdom It is for railroads ns Americas most potent moans to national prosperity and growth that I am on advocate railroads with Herculean financial strength to cope with the problems of the future Our mission is to clarify the so that the people will look upon railroads as tre mendous agencies of civilization which have n record of glorious achieve ment with their mental vision undimmed by too much of mere human error in their Railroads must of course be operated by men men with and genius intermixed with human frailties But men come and they pass adding their mental mite to the great work while railroads must go on forever growing greater and greater and doing greater things as years go by If Americans are wise to their own selfish interests they will foster they will guard them with the jealous care of and see that no harm shall como to them Prolong AllottedSpan By Dr Carl A 11 Anderson Young America Dainty Future Prosperityj Sane Solution conquering connecting development improved independent acceleration

patriotism Your Whatever with life die has so far in human experience been an im mutablo law We old and pass leaving room for others and they taking the places we once occupied No more need there be Mid of that but human life be made to a longer space between the cradle and tho grave The answer is Yes From what we know of the earliest statis tics at the time of Button ICO years ago the average of the duration of life were as follows At 20 years of age 33 years and five mouths nt 30 28 at 40 22 years and one month at 50 16 and seven months j at 00 11 years and one month Xow it is at 20 years of age 41 years and seven months at 30 34 ears and six months at 40 27 years and four months at 50 20 years and two months at 60 13 years and nine months Front this it will be seen that At least in the United States we arc doing well for this good showing are mainly better care of children formerly better sanitation better understanding of the destructive germs and bettor taro bestowed on the sick by physicians and nurses Little or nothing has so far been done for combating ailments peculiar to old age not diseases properly so called but a a senile change which to a considerable degree it capable of shortening human life It is a wellknown fact that the atrophy of the nerve endings and the hardening of the walls of the blood vesselsarteries veins and capil laries caused to not a small extent by calcareous infiltration and other senile changes are the greatest factors in shortening life in old age Thosa senile changes commence destnictivo work at about tho ago of 50 conic earlier some Tho deposit of limesalt in the walk of the blood vessels is often associated with atrophy and fatty increasing the rigidity interfering to not a small extent with tho proper function of vesselsWe at our command some very simple moans by which to com bat these senile changes that life may be prolonged in persons of 50 or so 5 to 20 years namely Massage proscribed movements exorcise and proper feeding Massage should be had ovary or every other day but not less than every fourth day and this can be selfadministered a little practice Too By PROP FRITZ KOCH M tit kwullnt Sdnl hSmlni born must grow away can span probabilities years years The causes than degeneration their later degeneration from day with Not least among tho detriments to a natural development of children is fashion n forced culture of vanity and extrava gance Not only do the parents but also the teachers set the example To follow slavishly all the extravagances of fashion appears to be a far stronger tendency than the desire to be refined and simple It is so utterly common to be fashionable nowadays that I should think teachers at least would refuse to imitate the great mass of human ity unless tho fashion happens to be adapt able to the particular personality of the wearer For the benefit of the children I would recommend that aUsel crippled exponents of vanity be banished from the school room Dressing fashionably dressing elaborately is often so strongly impressed even upon the youngest children that it prevents them from concerning themselves about things of much greater value to them Cleanliness is a virtue not demanded from the factory hand while at work but children while at play ore constantly reprimanded because of their dirty hands spots on their clothes etc So frequently are they called away from their real life because of this and so dressed up arc many of them because the father can afford it and the mother tikes it that natural intense wild play is gradually replaced by occupations of lesser value or by systematic games liko tennis basketball and baseball Spontaneous action and natural growth take place when children are left unincumbered by critical adult supervision during their free play hours They are naturally digger of the dirt waddlers inpuddles climbers of trees and fences and balustrades Real boys and girls arc rovers in field and foist in alleys and dangerous places Jcal boys and girls are fascinated by the most grewsomo ghost stories and they listen to the most impossible fairy tales with breathless attention and keenly enjoy the

nearly nine millions on the annual Interest charge Control of Corporations As regards the great corporations engaged In Interstate business and nape dally the lallroods I can only repeat what I have already again and again said In my messages to the congress I be lieve that under the Interstate clause of the constitution the United States has complete and paramount right to control all agencies of Interstate commerce and I believe that the national government alone can exercise this right with wisdom and effectiveness so as both to secure justice from and to do justice to the great corporation which are the most Important fedora In modern bUll ness I believe that It Is worse than folly lo Mtrnipt to prohibit all com lnallor ns Is dono by the Sherman antitrust law because such a law can be enforced only Imperfectly and unequally and Its enforcement works al most as much hardship as good I strongly advocate that Instead of an un wise effort to prohibit nil combinations there shall be substituted a law which shall expressly permit combinations which are In the lntrr bt of the public but shall at hlomo time give to aome agency In government full rower of control and supervision over thisIlies a right to know and furthermore the power not by judicial but by execu tive action to prevent or put a stop to f every form of Improper favoritism or other wrongdoing The railways of the country should be put completely under the Interstate commerce commission and removed from the domain of the antitrust law Tho power of the commission should be made thoroughgoing so that It could exercise complete supervision and control over the Issue of securities as welt as over the raising and lowering of rates As regards rates at least this power should be summary Rates must be monde propI road from the highest to tho lowest and proper returns to the shareholders L but they mutt not for Instance be ro r ducud In such fathlon as to necessitate a cut In the wages of the employes or the abolition of tha proper and legitimate I profits of honest shareholders Telegraph and telephone companies en I gaged In Interstate business should ba I Interyvery our people through their preentatlve should act In this matter It U to the Interest of all of us that there should be a put upon In I dlvldutl UlUlMXt fI Jt4Idua1 ra jL r parity and nn ample reward for tho great directing Intelligences alone com petent to manage the great business op erations of today It Is well to keep In mind that exactly as the anarchist Is the wornt enemy of liberty and the reaction ary the worst enemy of order eo the propertyhenof great wealth and the men who are championing popular rights have most to fear from the demagogues who In the name of popular rights would do wrong to and oppress honest business men honest men of wealth for the success of either type of wrongdoer necessarily In vibes a violent reaction against the cause the wrongdoer nominally upholds Need of Centralization The proposal to make the na tional government supreme over and therefore to give It complete control over the railroads and other Instruments of Interstate commerce II merely a propo al to carry out to the letter one of the prime purposes If not the prime purpose for which tho constitution was founded It docs not represent centralization It represents merely the acknowledgment of the patent fact that centralization has already come lr business It this Irre sponsible outside business power Is to be controlled In the Interest of the general public It can only be controlled In one way by Hiving adequate power of con trol to the one sovereignty capable of ex ercising such power the national govern ment To abandon the effort for nations control means to abandon the effort for all adequate control and yet to render like ly continual bursts of action by state leg islatures which cannot achieve the pur pose sought for but which can do a great deal of damage to the corporation without conferring any real honest on the public There should be regulation by the na tional government of the great Interstate corporations Including a simple method of account keeping publicity supervision of the Issue of securities abolition of relate and of special privileges There should be sbortUrnn franchises for all corporations engaged In public business Including the corporation which get power from wither rllthts There should IMI national as well as state guardianship of mines and forests The labor leglala tion hereinafter referred to should concurrently be enacted Into law To accomplish this means a certain In crease In the use ornot the creation of power by the central government The power already exists It does not have to be created the only question Is whether It hill be used or left Idle antI meanwhile the corporations over which the power ought to exercised will not remain Idle The danger to Amer- Ican democracy lies not In the least In the concentration of administrative power In responsible and accountable hands It UM In having the power Insufficiently eonc Qtratad so that no one can be held r wfxH 1IIe to time paepla for Its use Concentrated power Is

peril tram any man who derive au thority from the people who exercises It In sight of the people and who Is from time to time compelled to give an account of Its exercise to the people Legislation for Wageworker There are many matters affecting labor and the Mains of the wageworker to which I should Hlee to draw your atten lien dot an exhaustive dtocuaton at the problem In all Its aspects Is net new nee weary I believe In a steady ef fort ar perhaps It would be more accurate to say In steady efforts In many different directions to bring about a condition of affairs under which the men who work with hand or with brain th laborers the superintendents the men who produce the market and the men wio nnd a market for time articles produced shall own a far greater share than at present of the wealth they pro dun and ba enabled to Invest It In the tools and Instruments by which all work Is carried on As far as possible I lope to see a frank recognition of the advantages conferred by machinery organisa acwrnpanledbIn the ownership by wageworker ot railway mill and factory Postal Savng banks will make It easy for the poorest to keep their caving ts absolute safety The regulation of the national highways must be such that they shall servo all people with equal justice Corporate finances must be supervised so as to make It far safer than at present for the man of small means to Invest his money In stocks There must be prohibition of child la bor mlnutlon of women labor short ening of hour ut all mechanical labor stock watering should be prohibited poaal14mia progressive Inheritance tax on large fortunes Industrial education should be encouraged As far as possible we should lighten the burden of taxation on the small man We should put a premium upon thrift hard work and business energy but these qualities cease to be the main factors In accu mulating a fortune long before that fortune reaches a point where It would be torlously affected by any Inherl tance tax such all I propose It Is emi nently right that tho nation should fix the terms upon which the great for tunes are Inherited They rarely do good and they often do harm to those who Inherit them In thrlr entirety palterlog the wageworkcr who under our pres ent Industrial system becomo killed crippled or worn out as part of the regular Incident of n given business As far ns concerns those who have been worn out I call your attention to the fact that definite steps toward providing oldage pen lions have been taken In many of our private Industries These may bo In definitely extended through voluntary association and contributory schemes or through the agency of savings banks as under tho Massachusetts plan Urgent Njed cf Reform Our present nytlcm or rather no ays tern works dreadful wrong and Is ot benefit to only one class of reoplo tho lawyers When n workman Is Injured what he needs Is not an expensive and doubtful lawsuit but the certainty ot relief through Immediate administra live action No rtcJiteiiilc theory about freedom of contract or consti tutional liberty to contract should be permitted to Interfere with this and similar movements Pending a thoroughgoing Investigation and action there Is certain legla lation which should be cmicted at onco The law passed at the list session of the congress granting compensation to certain classes of employes of tha gay ernment should be extended to Include all employes of tho government and should be made more liberal in Its terms There Is no good ground for the distinction iiiade In the law be tween those engaged In hazardous oc cupations and those not so en gaged Time terms of the act pro viding compensation shiuld be made more liberal than In the present act A years compensation Is not ade quato for a wageearners family In the event of his death fay accident In the course of his employment And In the event ot death occurring say ten or eleven months after tho accident the family would only receive as compen allen Uta aaulvalant al ana or two months earnings In this respect the generosity of the United States towards unfAvorablY rope even tho poorest I renew my recommendation made In a previous message that halfholiday be granted during summer to all wage workers In government employ I also renew my recommendation that the principle of the eighthour day should as rapidly and as far na practi cable be extended to the ontlro work being carried on by the government the present law should be amended to embrace contract on those publlo works which tho present wording of tho act seems to exclude Would Double Salaries of Judges I most earnestly urge upon the con nrens tho duty of Increasing the totally Inadequate salaries now gIven to our judges On the whole there ii no body of public servants who do as valuable work nor whose moneyed reward Is so Inadequate compared to their work Beginning with the supreme court the judges should have their salaries dou bled It Is not befitting the dignity of the nation that Its most honored publlo servants should be paid sums so small compared to what they would earn In private life that the performance of publlo service by them Implies an ex ceedingly heavy pecuniary sacrifice It Is earnestly to be desired that some method should be devised for doing away with thc lpng delays which now obtain In the administration of Justice and which operate with peculiar sever ity against persons of small mean and favor only the very criminals whom It Is most desirable to punish These long delays In the final decisions of oases make In the aggregate a crying evil and a remedy slioma be devised Much of this Intolerable delay Is due to Improper regard paid to technicalities which are a mere hlnderance to justice In some noted recent cases this overregard for technicalities has resulted In a striking denial of justice and flagrant wrong to the body politic Labor Leaders Criticised At the last election certain leaders of organized tabor made a violent and sweeping attack upon the entire Judi ciary of the country an attack couched In such terms as to Include the most upright honest and broadminded Judges no lees than those of narrower mind and more restricted outlook I ast year before the house com mittee on judiciary these same labor leaders formulated their de mands specifying the bill that contained them refusing all compro raise elating they wished tho principle of that bill or nothing They Insisted on a provision that In a labor dispute no Injunction should Issue except to protect a property right and specifical ly provided that the right to carry on business should not be construed as a property right and In a second provis ion their bill made legal In a labor dis pute any act or agreement by or be tween Iwo or more persona that would not have been unlawful If done by a single person in other words this bill leiralliad blacklisting and boycotting In every form legalizing for Instance those forma of the secondary boycott which the anthracite coal strike com mission so unreservedly condemned while the right to carry on a business was explicitly taken out from under that protection whloh the law throws over property The demand was made that there should be trial by jury In contempt cases thereby most seriously Impairing the authority of the courts All this represented a course of policy which It carried out would mean tho enthronement of class privilege In Ita sole t and most brutal form and the destruction of one of the toast essen tial functions of the judllcary In all clv HUed lands The violence of the crusade for this legislation and its complete failure Illustrate two truths which It Is essen tial our people should learn In the first place they ought to teach the workingman tho laborer tho wage worker that by demanding what Is Im proper and Impossible he plays Into the hands of his foes Such a crude and vlolous attack upon the courts even If It were successful would Inevitably In the end cause a violent reaction and would band the great mass of citizens together forcing them to stand by nil the judges competent and Incompetent alike rather than to see the wheels of Justice stopped The wngeworkers the workingmen the laboring men of the country by the way In which they repudiated the ef fort to get them to cast their votes In response to an appeal to class hatred have emphasized their sound patriotism and Americanism Such nn attitude Is an object lesson In good citizenship to the entire nation Judicial System Sound Our judicial system is sound and effective at core and It remains and must ever be maintained as the safeguard of those principles of liberty and Justice which stand at the foundation of American Institutions for as Burke finely said when liberty and justice are separated neither Is safe There are however some members of the judicial body who have lagged behind In their understanding ot these great and vital changes In the body politic whoso minds have never been opened to the new applications of the old principles made necessary by the new conditions Judges of this stamp lo lasting harm by their decisions because they convince poor men In need of protection that the courts of the land are profoundly Ignorant of and out of sympathy with their Rib and profoundly Ignorant or hostile to any proposed remedy To such men It seems a cruel mockery to have any court decide against them on the ground that It desires to preserve liberty In a purely technical form by withholding liberty In any real and con structive sense There are certain decisions by various courts which have been exceedingly det rimental to the tights of wageworkers This is true of all decisions that decide that men are by the constitution guaranteed their liberty to contract to enter occupation or to work an undesirable or Improper number of hours or to work In unhealthy surroundings and therefore cannot recover damages when maimed In that occupation and cannot be forbidden to work what tho legislature decides Is an excessive number of to carry on the work under conditions which the legislature decides to be unhealthy Decisions such as those nullity the legislative effort to protect the wageworkers who most need protection from those employers who take advantage of their grind- Ing need They halt or hamper tho move ment for securing better and more equi table conditions of labor There is alu I think ground for the belief that substantial Injustice Is often suffered by employes In consequence of the custom of courts Issuing temporary Injunctions without notice to them and punishing them for contempt of court In Instances whore as a matter of fact they have no knowledge of any proceed- Ing Organized labor Is chafing under the unjust irilralnt which comes from repealed resort to this plan of procedure Its discontent has been unwisely expresd and often Improperly expressed but there Is a sound basis for It and the orderly and lawabiding people of a com munity would be In a far stronger post lion for upholding the courts If the un doubtedly existing abuses couU be pro- vIded against Injunction Must R ritnThe power of Injunction li a great equUablr remedy whlh should on no uuvmnt ba destroyed But safeguards should be erected against Itl abuse In substance provision should be made that no Injunction or temporary restraining order issue otherwise than on notice except where irreparable Injury would otherwise result and In such case a hearing on tho merits of the order should be had within a short fixed pe riod and if not then continued after hearing It should forthwith lapse Decisions should bo rendered Immediately and the chance of delay minimized In every way Moreover I believe that the procedure should bo sharply defined and the judge required minutely to state the particulars both of his action and of his reasons therefor so that the congress can If It deslrcj examine and investigate the same For many of the of Justice In our country our people as a whole are themselves to blame and the judges and Juries merely bear their share together with the publlo as a whole It Is discreditable to us all a people that there should be difficulty In convicting murderers or In bringlig to justice men who ns pUblic servants have been guilty of corruption or who have profited by the corruption of publIc servants The result Is equally unfortunate whether due to hairsplit ting technicalities In the Interpretation of law by judge to sentimentality and class consciousness on the part Of Juries or to hysteria and sensational- Ism In the daily press For much of this failure of justice no responsibility whatever ties on rich men as such We who make up the mass of the people cannot shift the responsibility from our own shoulders nut there Is an Impor tant part of the failure w ich has ape claly to do with Inability to hold to proper account men of wealth who behave badly The Modem Corporation The huge wealth that has been accu mulated by a few Individuals of recent years In what has amounted to a so cial and Industrial revolution has been as regards some of these Individuals made possible only by the Improper use of the modern corporation A certain type of modern corporation with its officers and agents Its many Issues of securities and Its constant consolidation with allied undertakings finally becomes an Instrument so complex as to contain a greater number of cle meats that under various judicial decisions lend themselves to fraud and oppression than any device yet evolved In tho human brain Corporations are necessary Instruments of modern bust ness They have been permitted to become a menace largely because the governmental representatives of the people have worked slowly In providing for adequate control over them Our great clusters of corpora tions huge trusts and fabulously wealthy multimillionaire employ the very but lawyers they can obtain to pick flaws in statutes after their passage but they also employ a class of secret agents who seek under tho advice of experts to render hostile Ittglslnlon Innocuous by making It un constitutional often through the Insertion of what appear on their face to bo drastic and sweeping provisions against the Interests of tho parties Inspiring them while the demagogues the cor rupt creatures who Introduce black mailing schemes to strike corpora tions and all wlo demand extreme and undesirably radical measures show themselves to be the worst ene mies of the very public whose loud mouthed champions they profess to be Real damage has been done by the manifold and conflicting Interpretations 01 the interstate commerce law Con trol over the great corporations doing Interstate business can be effective only If It Is vested with fUll power In an administrative department a branch of tho federal executive carrying out a federal law It can never be effective If a divided responsibility Is left In both the states and the nation It can never be effective If left in the hands of the courts to be decided by lawsuits Respect for Law Must Be Upheld The courts hold a place of peculiar and deserved sanctity under our form of gov ernment Respect for the law Is essen tial to the permanence of our Institu tions and respect for tho law Is largely conditioned upon respect for the courts It is an offense against the republic to say anything which can weaken this respect save for the gravest reason and In the most carefully guarded manner In no other nation In the world do the courts wield such vast and farreaching power as In the United States All that Is necessary Is that tho courts as a whole should exercise this power with the far sighted wisdom already shown by those judges who scan the future while they act In the present ltrthem exercise this great power not only honestly and bravely but with wise Insight Into the needs and fixed purposes of the people so that they may do Justice and work equltrso that they may protect all per rights and yet break down the barriers of privilege which Is the foe of right Forest Preservation If there Is cny one duty which more than another we owe It to our children to perform at once It Is to save the for eta of this country for they constitute tho first and most Important element In tho conservation of tho natural resources of the country Just as a farmer after nil his life making his living from his farm will If he Is an ex pert farmer leave it as an asset of In creased value to his eon so we should leave our national domain to our children Increased In value and not worn out There era small sections of our own county In the eat and In the west In the Adirondack the White mountains and the Appalachians and In the Rocky mountains where we can already see for ourselves the damage In the shape of permanent Injury to the soil and tho river systems which comes from reckless deforestation It matters not whether this deforestation Is due to the actual reckless cutting of timber to the fire that Inevitably follow such reckless cutting of timber or to reckless and uncon trolled grazing especially by tho great migratory bands of sheep the un checked wandering of which over the country means destruction to forests and disaster to the small homemakers the settlers of limited means Thanks to our own recklessness In tho use of our splendid forests wo have Already crossed the verge of a timber famine In this country and no measures that we now take can at least for many years undo the mischief that has already been done nut we can pre vent further mischief being done and It would be In the highest degree reprehen sible to let any consideration of tem porary convenience or temporary cost Interfere with such action especially as regards the national forests which the nation can now at this very moment controlTho lesson of deforestation In China Is a lesson which mankind should have learned many times already front what has occurred In other places Denuda tion leaves naked soil then gullying cuts down to the bare rock and mean while the rockwaste buries the bottom

our Inland water ways action which will result In giving us not only navigable but navigated riversUntil the irork of river Improvement is undertaken In a modern way U can not have results that will

of tho agricultural depart moat fae also points out tho benefits derived from pure food legislation Tho mossap r continues Need of the Secret Service lAst year an amendment was Incor porated In the measure pro fig for the secret service which provided thaV there should be no detail from the secret serv ice and no transfer therefrom The amentnent In question was of benefit to no one excepting to criminals and It seriously hampers the government In the detection of crime and the securing of justice The chief argument In favor of the provision was that the congressmen did not them selves wish to be investigated by the secret service men Very little of such Investigation has been done In the past but It Is true that the work of the secret service agents was partly responsible for the Indictment and conviction of a sea aloe and a congressman for land frauds In Oregon I do not believe that It Is In the public interest to protect criminals In any branch of the public service and exactly as we have again and again dur ing the past seven years prosecuted and convicted such criminals who were in the executive branch of the government so In my belief we should be given ample means to prosecute them If found In the legislative branch But If this Is not considered desirable a special exception could be made In the law prohibiting the use of the secret service force In inves tigating members of the congress Postal Savings Banks I again renew my recommendation for postal savings banks for deposit ing savings with the security of the government behind them The object In to encourage thrift and economy In time wageearner and person of mod erate mean It Is believed that In the aggregate vast sums of money would be brought Into circulation through the Instrumentality of the postal savings banks Parcel Post In my last annual message I com mended the postmastergenerals recommendation for an extension of the parcel post on the rural routes The establishment of a local parcel post on rural routes would be to tho mutual benefit of the farmer and the country storekeeper and It Is desirable that the routes serving more than 15000000 people should be utilized to the fullest practicable extentEducation proI gress has neglected to adequately supply the bureau with means to meet the educational growth of the country I earnestly recommend that this un fortunate state of affairs as regards the national educational office be reme died by adequate appropriations This recommendation Is urged by the repre sentatives of our common schools and great state universities and the leading educators who all unite In requesting favorable consideration and action by the congress upon this subject The president polnta out the necessity of better organization of tho vari ous bureaus responsible for the public health and urges the placing of all soldiers homes under tho jurisdiction of the war departmentStatehood On the question of statehood tho president says- I advocate the Immediate admission of New Mexico and Arizona as states This should be done at the present session ot the congress The people of the two territories have made It evident by their votes that they will not come in as one state The only alternative is to admit them as two and I trust that this will be done without delay- Interstate Fisheries I call the attention of the congress to the importance of the problem of the fisheries In the Interstate waters On the Great Lakes we are now under the very wise treaty of April 11 of this en deavoring to come to an International agreement for the preservation and satisfactory use of the fisheries of these waters which can not otherwise be achieved Lake Erie for example has the richest fresh water fisheries In the world but It Is now controlled by the statutes of two nations four states and one province and this province by two different ordl nances In different counties All these political divisions work at cross pur poses and In no case chit they achieve protection to the fisheries on the one hand and justice to tho localities and In dividuals on the other Foreign Affairs This nations foreign policy Is based on the theory that right must be done between nations precisely as between Individuals and in our actions for the last ten years we have In this matter proven our faith by our deeds Wo have behaved and are behaving to wards other nations as In private life an honorable man would behave to wards his fellows LatinAmerican Republics The commercial and material prog ress of the 20 LatinAmerican republics is worthy of tnn careful attention of the congress The International Bureau of the American Republics Is doing a useful work In making these nations and their resources better known to us and in acquainting them not only with us ns a people and with our pur poses towards them but with what we bave to exchange for their goods Panama Canal The work on the Panama canal Is be- Ing done with a speed efficiency and entire devotion to duty which make It a model for all work of the kind The men on the Isthmus from Col Qoethals and his fellow commissioners through the entire list ot employee who are faithfully doing their duty have won their right to the ungrudging respect and gratitude of the American people Ocean Mall Lines I again recommend the extension of the ocean mall act of 1891 so that satin factory American ocean mall lines to South America Asia the Phlllpplnus and Australasia may be established Hawaii I call particular attention to the Territory of liawill The Importance of those Islands Is apparent and the need of Improving their condition and de velopfng their mOurcei Is urgent The Philippines heal progress toward selfgovernment la being made In the Philippine Islands I trust that within a generation the time will arrive when tho Philippines can dicldi tot themselves whether It U wet for them to become Independent er to continue under the protection l a strong and disinterested power able to guarantee to the Islands order at horn I and protection from foreign invasion Porto Rico- I again recommend that American cit izenship be conferred upon the people of Porto Rico Cuba In Cuba our occupancy will cease in about two months time tho Cubans have In orderly manner elected their own governmental authorities and the Island will be turned over to them Our occu pation on this occasion hall lasted a lit tle over two years and Cuba hoe thriv en and prospered under It Our earnest hope and one desire is that the people of the IsUnd shall now govern them selves with justice so that peace and or der may bo secure Japanese Exposition The Japanese government has post greatInternatlona1ing taken so as to Insure ample time In which to prepare to make the expo sition all that It should be made The American commissioners have visited Japan and tho postponement will mere ly give ampler opportunity for Ameri ca to be represented at the exposition Not since the first international expo sition has f here been one of greater Importance than this will be marking as it does the fiftieth anniversary of the ascension tci the throne of the em peror of Japan The extraordinary leap to the foremost place among the nations of the world made by Japan during this half century Is something unparalleled In all previous history I take this opportunity publicly to state my appreciation of tho way In which In Japan In Australia In New Zealand and In all the states of South America the battle fleet has been re ceived on Its practice voyage around the world The American government can not too strongly express its appre ciation of the abounding and generous hospitality shown our ships In every port they visitedThe Army As regards the army I call attention to the fact that while our junior offi cers and enlisted men stand very high the present system of promotion by tenlorlty results in bringing Into the higher grades many men of mediocre capacity who have but a short time to serve No man should regard It as his vested right to rise to the highest rank In the army any more than In any other profession It Is a curious and by no means creditable fact that there should bo so often a fallUre on the part of the public and its representatives to understand the great need from the standpoint of the service and the nation of refusing to promote re spectable elderly Incompetents The higher places should be given to the most deserving men without regard to seniority at least seniority should be treated as only one consideration In the stress of modern Industrial com petition no business firm could succeed If those responsible for Its management were chosen simply on the ground that they were tho oldest people In Its em ployment yet this Is the course advo cated as regards the army and re quired by law for all grades except those of general officer As a matter of fact all of the best officers In tho highest ranks of the army are those who have attained their present posi tion wholly or In part by a process of selection sl1ol1ldbealder general unfitness to command for any cause In order to secure a far more rigid enforcement than at present In the elimination of officers for mental physical or temperamental disabilities Out this plan Is recommended only 1C the congress does not see fit to provide what in my judgment Is far better that Is for selection in promotion and I for elimination for age Officers who fall to attain a certain rank by a certain age should be retired for In stance If a man should not attain field rank by the time he 114G he should of course be placed on the re tired list General officers should be selected as at present and onethird of the other promotions should be made by selection the selection to be made by the president or secretary of war from a list of at least two candi dates proposed for each vacancy by a board of officers from the arm of the service from which the promotion la to be made A bill Is now before the congress having for its object to se cure the promotion of officers to van ous grades at reasonable ages through a process of selection by boards of of ficers of the least efficient for retire ment with a percentage of their laydepending upon length of service The bill although not accomplishing all that should be done Is a long step In the right direction and I earnestly recommend Its passage or that of a more completely effective measure National Guard Now that the organized militia the National Guard has been Incorporated with the army us a part of the national forces It behooves the government to do every reasonable thing In Its power to perfect its efficiency It should be assisted in its instruction and other wise aided more liberally than hereto fpre The continuous services of many welltrained regular officers will be essential In this connection A bill Is now pending before the congress creating a number of extra officers In the army which If passed as it ought to be will enable more omcers to be trained as Instructors of National Guard and assigned to that duty In caso ot war It will be of the utmost Importance to have a large number of trained officers to use for turning raw levies into good troops The Navy I approve the recommendations ot the general board for the In crease of the navy calling especial attention to the need of addi tional destroyers and colliers and above all of the four battleships It is desir able to complete as soon as possible a squadron of eight battleships of the best existing type I most earnestly recommend that the general board bo by law turned Into a general staff There is literally no ex cuse whatever for continuing the pres ent bureau organization of the navy The navy should be treated as a purely mili tary organization and everything should bo subordinated to the one object of securing military efficiency A system of promotion by merit either b tlon or by exclusion or by both processes should be Introduced It is out of the question It the present principle of promotion by mere seniority Is kept to expect to get the beat results from the higher officers Our men come too old and stay for too short a time In the high command positions Nothing better for the navy from every standpoint has ever occurred than the cruise of the battle fleet around the world The Improvement of the ships la every way hay been extraordinary and they have gained far more experience In battle tactics than they would hays gained If they had stayed In the Atlantic waters Tho American people have cause for profound gratification both In view of the excellent condition of the fleet aa shown by this cruise and In view of themImprovement tho cruise has worked this already high condition I do not believe that there Is any other service lathe world In which the average ot character arid emclency In the enlisted man Is as high as U now the case In our own TJIEODOIIB NOOSEVELT The WiilU llsust
