Roosevelt Says Taft Is a Trust Buster
of True Type, Notwithstanding He
Has Not Busted Any Trusts
President Roosevelt has given out
a formal statement, which was called
forth by the recent exchanges be
dween Willlam R. Hearst and Sean
tor Foraker of Ohio. Mr. Hearst,
in public utterances, had accused the
senator of relations with the Stand
ard Oil Company inconsistent with
his duties as a senator and his atti
tude as a representative of republi
“¢an policies and profession.
In his statement President Roose
velt makes another appeal for the
support of Mr. Taft, and declares
that his defeat would bring "lustingi
satisfaction to but one set of men,
namely to those men who, as shownl
in the correspondence published by
Mr. Hearst, were behind Mr. Fora
ker, the opponent of Mr. Taft within
his own party and who now are be
hind Gov. Haskell and his associates,
the opponents of Mr. Taft in the op
posite party.”
Even Blames 'Em for This.
The president cites the Brownsville
affair as a case where the agitation
was a phase of the effort ‘“by the
representatives of certain law defy
ing corporations to bring discredit
upon the administration.”” It was,
he says, in large part ‘“not a genuine
agitation on behalf of colored men
at all, but merely one phase of the
effort by the representatives of cer
tain law defying corporations to
bring discredit upon the administra
tion because it was seeking to cut out
the evils connected not only with the
corrupt use of wealth, but especial
ly with the corrupt alliance between
certain business men of large for
tunes and certain politicians of great
influence,
If You Believe This Stand on
Your Head.
Commenting further on Mr. Taft's
letter the president says:
“I publish this letter without Mr.
Taft's knowledge, because I feel it
my duty to the public that his atti

-Was Fed to Him With His Oats, Be

- At Waterbury, Conn., Robert Mc

!some real estate, and the banks be

of oats in his barn as the last place
lhe thought burglars would look for

‘covering his memory at noon he went
lt() the manger and found it licked
'clean, but the roll, with a thrick
‘rubber band, was there intact. The
{horse must have swallowed it, but
{unable to digest the roll, coughed it
‘up. The money lay in the corner
lof the manger, a dirty mess, but re

a big roll in his coat pocket and left
the coat in an apple tree three days.

CARRY JOFF THEIR FARMS.
The French Tenant Takes the Top
Soil With Him When He Moves.
The modern farmer was applying
electrical massage to a cart horse's
sprained knee, says the Philadelphia
Bulletin. During the intervals of
rest he talked farm talk.
“There are tenants,” he said,
‘“‘who when they move carry their
farms with them as the tortoise does
his house. These people are the
Norman FKFrench, the world's best
farmers.
““Where you or I would require
20 or 30 acres of land to keep one
family the French farmer will keep
a family on a quarter of an acre.
If he choses to cultivate 20 or 30
acres he would become a millionaire.
““His secret lies in the perfection
to which he brings his top soil.
What with fertilizing and watering
and clearing, his top soil is the black
est, finest, richest soil on earth. His
top soil is to the French farmet
what her voice is to the prima donna.
“And when he rents he contracts
that on the termination of his lease
he may carry off eighteen inches of
the top soil with him.
“When you see a French farmer
moving one small cart carries his
household goods, and in seven or
eight enormous drays his top soil
lumbers on behind.”

FLY KITESTO GET THE SMELLS
Bags of Bad Odors Are Then Opened Up for the Commissioner,
\ To Rid Porkopolis of Stock Yard Scents.
CHICAGO.—At a mass meeting
held to protest against the odors
which emanate from the Union Stock
Yards, and which sometimes envel

sioner Evans said that for some time
he had been obtaining samples of the
smells by means of bags suspended
from kites floated over the stock
vards. Before prosecutions could be
begun, he said, it was necessary to
procure exact evidence as to the
sources of the odors and consequent
ly kites with open bags had been
directed over particular buildings.
“While bad smells are not neces
sarily a detriment to health,” said
Dr. Evans, ‘‘they unquestionably ir
ritate one's temper. Our kites have
been directed especially over the tall

D. SULLY IS NOW A CLERK
Is the Man Who Was Twice King of
Cotton. Says He Is Through
With Speculation Forever.
- A New York dispatch says: Dan
iel J. Sully, who twice won and lost
the crown of “Cotton King’ in Wall
street, has resigned the presidency
of the Cerro-Colorado Mining Com
pany and gone to work as a clerk
for Hayden, Stone & Co., to give
their cotton clients the henefit of his
experience.
Mr. Sully's new office is at No. 25
Broad street, just across the narrow
exchange place from the dismantled
offices of the Cerro-Colorado Mining
Company.
“I am through with speculation
forever., I know that the new life
is directly opposite to that opinion
of me which the general public
formed from following my past op
erations. I know that I was the pi
oneer of advertising my operations
in direct appeals to the people. But
I know that I never did an act that
was not honorable, and 1 will now
show them that a speculator can
quit.
In 1904, before his fortune came
tumbling about his ears in the great
cotton crash, he ranked among the
very rich men of the country. It
was hard to estimate his wealth, but
he certainly was worth at least $5,-
000,000, and perhaps $10,000,000.
He made hundreds of thousands a
day when he was the cotton king
and the world of finance bowed to
him as one of its foremost leaders.

’TO RESTORE GARDEN OF EDEN
'(‘ontemp]ated in Plan of Turkish
Reform to Make It Again Blos
som as the Rose.
Those who con the creation chap
ter of the Bible and those following
will remember that it is said that
“a river flowed out of Kden and
parted and became into four heads.”
iOne of these branches of the Edenic
(stream was the Euphrates. From
!this the students have located Eden,
iwith more or less satisfaction, some
where in the Chaldean basin between
the Euphrates and the Tigris.
Interest in Eden is revived not by
the arising of a new poet to catch
|up the Miltonic strain, nor by a new
philosophy of contentment. The
scheme for the revival of Eden is
purely practical and material. It is
contemplated in the plan of Turkish
reforms, which will probably provide
for the engaging of the great expert
in dams, Sir William Wilcocks, to
|cause the basin of the Euphrates to
again blossom as the rose. He will
install an advanced system of irri
'gation. He is convinced that the
{old-time traditional fertility may be
restored. Nor is he apprehensive of
meeting the angel with the flaming
‘sword that was stationed upon the
walls to keep the first parents from
tasting again of the forbidden fruit.
Thus does modern science turn
back history upon its course and
cause the places of the beginning
of human experience to contribute
to modern necessities.—Baltimore
