After this statement, Colonel Roose velt arose from tlte witness chair, and waving a heavy bound volume before the committee, snapped out: "These are tile originals, gentlemen, of the letters to Senator Bourne, of which I sent you copies.

"I don't remember atiy conversation with Mr. Sibley,4^.Archbold's name was mentioned. I do remember that Sibley came on two or three oc casions about the Standard Oil Com pany, and he mar have brought up Archbold's name. 1 certainly did not volunteer to ask him to bring Archbold down to see me." Several times William Loeb, Jr., leaned over and coached his former chief. Saw Archbold Several Times. "1 remember Senator Bourne asking me to see Archbold,” continued Roose velt, “and 1 saw him with Bourne on several occasions, and on one occasion in my house at Oyster Bay. he brought Archbold to lunch, so that if Sibley did ask me to see Archbold I probably an swered him as he says 1 did. “While 1 was president, if any man, trust magnate, labor leader, Socialist, prize tighter or any other man had any business with me and wanted to see me. 1 always saw him. and if I thought there was anything to be gained from the standpoint of public service in see ing any man then, without waiting for him to ask, 1 would send for him. “If I am elected president, if Mr. Rockefeller o. any one else wants to see me. I will see him. and if ever I have anything to ask, for the public service, of Mr. Rockefeller, or Gompers, or Mitchell, or Pierpont Mo gan, 1 will send for him myself and ask him about it. During my term of service as presi dent it happened that I did not send for any representatives of the Standard Oil on my own initiative; it was always at the request of somebody. But I did send for several trust magnates. 1 sent so Marvin Hughtit, on three or four occasions.

The witness then called attention to the letter of October 14. 1904. written by himself to Mr. Harriman, which con tained the expression "You and I are practical men.” "Any one." said Roose velt, with an emphatic slap of his knee, "who confounds practicality with base ness is a person whose moral status is It’s a I :1~7 HANAN 3 /«/ \ Which means that it is IX / “ty/ MATCHABLE in st vie ami / J®/ \ / '=•/ I quality.

Because of a radical difference nf opinion between members of the I'ui; , county commission on the material r> be used for the proposed Peachtree road paving from Buckhead to •i P county line, and the assertion by one member, Shelby Smith, that the pub ~ vvotks committee had no real informa tion on the subject, action in the mat ter was postponed for a full boar,] meeting to be held tomorrow morning The charge that the Barber Aspha' Company, which had been led to be lieve that it was the successful bidde. was charging the county double price., for Bermudas asphalt, was argued at length, but the four commissione: s present, Shelby Smith, H. E. W PaL mer, S. B. Turman and Tull C Waters could arrive at r.o decision. When the board was notified true n» public works committee had decided t use the mixing process instead of the penetration process, as had been first decided.

"The board Will have to de vide on the process to be used." Tull C. Waters, chairman of the ~i). mittee, said that he would like to gc more information as to the charges r asphalt trust were making for £; e .,. rnudas asphalt in Northern cities, it has been asserted that while the tirsf was charging Fulton county S3B a ton for its product that it was selling in Philadelphia for sl3, the freight to At. ianta being $7.50.

Mothers Women who bear children and re main healthy are those who prepare their systems in advance of hair's coming. Unless the mother aids nature in its pre-natal work the crisis finds her system unequal to the de mands made upon it, and she is often left with weakened health or chronic ailments. No remedy is so truly a help to nature as Mother's Friend, and no expectant mother should fail to use it. It relieves the pain and discomfort caused by the strain on the ligaments, makes pliant and elas tic those fibres and muscles which nature is expanding, prevents numb ness of limbs, and soothes the inflam mation of breast glands. The system being thus prepared by Mother's Friend dispels the fear that the crisis may not be safely met. Mother's Friend assures a speedy and complete recovery for the mother, and she is left a healthy woman to enjoy the rearing of her child.
