HE MEASURED HIS HUNCER.
Device of an Italian Patient to Show His
Desire For More Food.
A big Italian in the Presbyterian
Hospital is just recovering from a dan
gerous illness, and lie lias a most vo
racious appetite. He speaks only a
few words of English, and his pretty
young wife, who is now permitted to
visit him daily and sits smiling upon
him with Sicilian sweetness, cannot
speak a word of the language. She
was present and laughed with the
nurses until tears were in all their
eyes at the big laborer’s efforts to
appease his convalescent appetite with
the little trays of food which are as
yet all that are considered good for
him- , „ . .
Yesterday :he poor fellow was in de
spair at the small sire of the piece of
bre-ad on his trav. He took it up,
gazed at its wee intensions wistfully,,
and remarked, “Want-a piece-a
bread!”
Then a bright idea flashed upon him.
He deter;, make plain his hun
ger. He took that little slice and
measured with it all the way from his
mouth down over his big chest to his
craving stomach, in the same manner
that one measures miles on a map
with a bit of paper. And with each
advance in his measuring he counted
and repeated his desire: One! want-a
picce-a bread. Two. Want-a piece-a
bread.” And so on till he had mapped
all the way to his stomach, ending with
an emphasis of his nee ', of reinforce
ments by a coaxing smile, and "Six!
Want-a piecc-a bread. Six, six, six!”

THE MESSAGE
Of President Roosevelt to
Congress.
IS AN INTERESTING DOCUMENT
He Refers Forcibly to All the impor
tant Questions of ths Day and
Gives His Ideas as to the
Best Remedies For Cor
recting Present
Evils.
Washington, Dee. 3.—The president
In his annual message to congress
says;
The congress assembles this year un
der the shadow of a groat calamity.
On the Gth of September President Mc-
Kinley was shot by an anarchist while
attending the Pan-American exposi
tion at Buffalo and died in that city
on the lltli of that mouth.
Of the last seven elected presidents
he is the third who has been murdered,,
and the bare recital of this fact is
sufficient to justify grave alarm among
all loyal American citizens. Moreover,
the circumstances of this, the third as
sassination of an American president,
have a peculiarly sinister significance.
Anarchy and AnnrclilatH.
The president continues with a
eulogy of Mr. McKinley, then turns to
the subject of anarchy, denouncing its
doctrines and preachers. He says:
1 earnestly recommend to tlieeongress
that in the exercise of its wise discre
tion it should take into consideration
the coming to this country of anarch
ists or persons professing principles
hostile to all government and justify
ing the murder of those placed in au
thority. Such individuals as those who
not long ago gathered in open meeting
to glorify the murder of King Hum
bert of Italy perpetrate a crime, and
the law should insure their rigorous
punishment. They and those like them
should be kept out of tills country, and
if found here they should he promptly
deported to the country whence they
came, and farreaching provision should
be made for the punishment of those
who stay. No matter calls more
urgently for the wisest thought of the
congress.
The president next considers busi
ness conditions, which he finds highly
satisfactory. He continues:
The tremendous and highly complex
industrial development which went on
with ever accelerated rapidity during
the latter half of the nineteenth cen
tury brings us face to face at the be
ginning of the twentieth with very
serious social problems. The old laws
and the old customs which had almost
the binding force of law were once
quite sufficient to regulate the ac
cumulation and distribution of wealth.
Since the industrial changes which
have so enormously increased the pro
ductive power of mankind they are no
longer sufficient.
Trade Combination*!.
The growth of cities has gone on be
yond comparison faster than the
growth of the country, and the up
buildiug of the great industrial centers
has meant it startling increase not
merely in the aggregate of wealth, hut
In the number of very large individual
and especially of very large corporate
fortunes. The creation of these great
corporate fortunes lias not been due
to the tariff nor to any other govern
mental action, hut to natural causes
In the business world, operating in oth
er countries as they operate in our
own.
The process has aroused much an
.Agouism, a great part of which is
wholly without warrant. It is not true
that as the rieli have grown richer the
poor have grown poorer. On the con
trary, never before lias the average
man. the wageworker, the farmer, the
small trader, been so well off as in this
conujr.v and at tlie present time. There
have been abuses connected with the
accumulation of wealth, yet it remains
true that a fortune accumulated in
legitimate business can be accumulat
ed by the person specially benefited
only on condition of conferring im
mense incidental benefits upon oth
ers. Successful enterprise of the type
which benefits all mankind can only
exist if the conditions are such as to
offer great prizes as the rewards of
success.
Reasons For Caution.
The president adds that there are
many reasons for caution in dealing
with corporations. He says:
The same business conditions which
have produced the great aggregations
of corporate and individual wealth
i have made them very potent factors in
' international commercial competition.
Moreover, it cannot too often be
| pointed out that to strike with ignorant
i violence at the interests of one set of
men almost inevitably endangers the
interests of all. The fundamental rule
; ill our national lift’ — the rule which un
derlies all others—is that, on the whole
and in the long run, we shall go up or
j down together.
How to Correct the Evils.
All this is true, and yet it is also
true that there are real and grave evils,
one of the chief being overcapitaliza
tion because of its many baleful con
sequences. and a resolute and practical
effort must be made to correct these
evils.
It is no limitation upon property
rights or freedom of contract to re
quire that when men receive from gov
ernment the privilege of doing busi
ness under corporate form, which frees
them from individual responsibility
and enables them to call into their en
terprises the capital of the public, they
shall do so upon absolutely truthful
representations as to the value of the
property in which the capital Is to be
! invested. Corporations engaged In ln-
I terstate commerce should be regulated
if they are found to exercise a license
working to the public Injury. It should
be as much the aim of those who seek
for social betterment to rid the busi
ness world of crimes of cunniEg as to
rid the entire body politic of crimes of
violence. Crest edi poratlojis exist only
because they are created and safe
guarded by otlr institutions, and it Is
therefore our right and our duty to
See that they work in harmony with
these institutions.
Publicity the Fir*t Essential.
The first essential in determining
how to deal with the great industrial
combinations is knowledge of the facts
—publicity. In the Interest of the pub
lic the government should have the
right to inspect and examine the work
ings of the great corporations engaged
In Interstate business. Publicity is the
only sure remedy which we can now
invoke. What further remedies are
needed in the way of governmental
regulation or taxation can only be de
termined after publicity has been ob
tained by process of law r and In the
course of administration. The first
requisite Is knowledge, full and com
plete-knowledge which may be made
public to the world.
The large corporations, commonly
called trusts, though organized In one
state, always do business In many
states, often doing very little business
In the state where they are Incorpo
rated. There is utter lack of uniform
ity in the state laws about them, and,
ns no state has any exclusive Interest
In or power over tlielr acts, It has in
practice proved impossible to get ade
quate regulation through state action.
Therefore, in the interest of the whole
people, the nation should, without in-
t]^ newer of the states
' llu,
at the end of the
no human wisdom could foretell the
sweeping changes, alike iu industrial
and political conditions, w hich were to
take place by the beginning of the
twentieth century. At that time it
was accepted as a matter of course
that the several states were the proper
authorities to regulate, so far as was
then necessary, the comparatively in
significant and strictly localized cor
porate bodies of the day. The condi
tions are now wholly different, and
wholly different action is called for.
I believe that a law can be framed
which will enable the national govern
ment to exercise control along the lines
above indicated, profiting by the expe
rience gained through the passage and
administration of the interstate com
merce act. If, however, the judgment
of the congress is that it lacks the con
stitutional power to pass such an act,
then a constitutional amendment
should be submitted to confer the
power.
There should be created a cabinet of
ficer, to be known as secretary of
commerce and Industries, as provided
In the bill introduced at the last ses
sion of the congress. It should be his
province to deal with commerce In its
broadest sense, including among many
other things whatever concerns labor
and all matters affecting the great
business corporations cud our mer
chant marine.
Labor.
The president declares that he re
gards it necessary to re-enact the Chi
nese exclusion law. In regard to labot
Le says that the government should
provide in its contracts that all work
should be done under “fair" conditions
and that all night work should be for
bidden for women and children as well
as excessive overtime.
ue asserts that the immigration law*
are unsatisfactory and that a law
should be enacted to keep out not only
anarchists, hut persons of a low moral
tendency or of unsavory reputatiot
and those who are below a certain
standard of economic fitness to entei
our industrial field as competitors w r itl
American labor.
The Tariff and Reciprocity,
The president declares that nothing
could be more unwise than to disturb
the business interests of the country by
any general tariff change at this time.
Need For Wider Market,.
Subject to this proviso of the proper
protection necessary to our industrial
well being at home, the principle of
reciprocity must .command our hearty
support. The phenomenal growth or
our export trade emphasizes the ur
gency of the need for wider markets
and for a liberal policy in dealing with
foreign nations. Whatever is merely
petty and vexatious in the way of
trade restrictions should be avoided.
The customers to whom we dispose of
our surplus products iu the long run,
directly or those 4
surplus products us some
thing in return. Tir ability to pur
chase our produdff should as far as
possible he sectßu by so arranging
our tariff as us to take from

ItJHpi. riant
high level of our present
prosperity. We have now reached the
point in the development of our in
terests where we are* not only able to
supply our own markets, but to pro
duce a constantly growing surplus for
which we must find markets abroad.
To secure these markets we can util-
ize existing duties in any case where
they are no longer needed for the pur
pose of protection, or In any case
where the article is not produced here
and the duty is no longer necessary
for revenue, as giving us something to
offer in exchange for what we ask.
The cordial relations with other na
tions which are so desirable will nat
urally be promoted by the course thus
required by our own interests.
The natural line of development for a
policy of reciprocity will be in connec
tion with those of our productions
which no longer require all of the sup
port once needed to establish them
upon a sound basis and with those oth
ers where either because of natural or
of economic causes we are beyond the
reach of successful competition.
I ask the attention of the senate to
the reciprocity treaties laid before it by
my predecessor.
The Merchant Marine.
The condition of the American mer
chant marine Is such as to call for im
mediate remedial action by the con
gress. It is discreditable to us as a
nation that our merchant marine
should be utterly insignificant in com
parison to that of other nations which
we overtop in other forms of business.
tVe should uot longer submit to condi
tions under which only a trifling por
licu of our great commerce |g_ Airfied
ln our own sfilps. To remedy this state
of things would not merely serve td
build up our shipping interests, [jut it
would also result in benefit to all who
are interested in the permanent estab
lishment of a wider market for Amer
ican products and would provide an
auxiliary force for the navy. Ships
work for their own countries just as
railroads work for their terminal
points. Shipping lines, if established to
| the principal countries with which we
have dealings, would be of political as
! well as commercial benefit. From ev
| ery standpoint it is unwise for the
United State! to continue to rely upon
the ships of ■ompeting nations for the
distribution our goods. It should be
made advanMgeous to carry American
goods in Amft'ican built ships.

an essential condition of water conser
vation.
The declaration is made that in the
arid states the only right to water
which should be recognized is that of
use. The president says that the doc
trine of private ownership of water
apart from land cannot prevail without
causing wroug.
Insular Problems.
Insular questions are next treated.
In Hawaii our aim must be to develop
the territory on the traditional Amer
ican lines. Porto Kico is declared to be
thriving as never before. The atten
tion of congress is called to the need of
legislation concerning the island’s pub
lic lands. In Cuba it is stated that
much progress has been made toward
putting the independent govern
file island upon a firm footing, and itfiP
declared that Independence will be an
accomplished fact. The president
adds:
Elsewhere I have discussed the ques
tion of reciprocity. In the case of Cu
ba, however, there are weighty reasons
of morality and of national Interest
why the policy should be held to have
a peculiar application, and 1 most ear
nestly ask your attention to the wis
dom, indeed to the vital need, of pro
viding for a substantial reduction in
the tax iff duties on Cuban imports into
the United States.
Iu dealing with the Philippine peo
ple we must show both patience and
strength, forbearance ar.d steadfast res
olution. Our aim is high. We do not
desire to do for the islanders merely

ic peoples by even the best foreign
governments. We hope to do for them
what has never before been done for
any people of the tropics—to make
them fit fo‘r self government after the
fashion of the really free nations.
The only fear is lest In our overanx
iety we give them a degree of inde
pendence for xvhich they are unfit,
therein- inviting reaction and disaster.

consequence to the
American people as the building of a
canal across the isthmus connecting
North and South America. Its impor
tance to the nation is by no means lim
ited merely to its material effects upon
our business prosperity, and yet with a
view to these effects alone it would be
to the lest degree important for us im
mediately to begin it. While its bene
ficial effects would perhaps be most
marked upon the Pacific coast and the
gulf and South Atlantic states, it would
also greatly benefit other sections. It
is emphatically a work which it is for
the interest of the entire country to be
gin and complete as soon as possible.
I am glad to be able to announce to
you that our negotiations on this sub
ject with Great Britain, conducted on
both sides in a spirit of friendliness and
mutual good will, have resulted ip
my being able to lay before the sen
ate a treaty which, if ratified, will en
able us to begin preparations for an
isthmian canal at any time and which
guarantees to this nation every fight
that it has ever asked in connection
with the canai. it specifically pro
vides that the United States alone shall
do the work of building and assume
the responsibility of safeguarding the
canal and shall regulate its neutral use
by all nations on terms of equality
without tlie guarantee or interference
of any outside nation from any quarter.
The Monroe Doctrine.
Tho Monroe doctrine should be the
cardinal feature of the foreign policy
of all the nations cf the two Americas,
as it is of the United States. The Mon
roe doctrine is a declaration that there
must be no territorial aggrandizement
by any non-American power at the ex
pense of any American power on Amer
ican soil. It Is In nowise intended as
hostile to any natlou In the old world.
Still less is It Intended to give cover to
any aggression by one new world power
at the expense of any other. It is sim
ply a step, and a long sttp, toward as
suring the universal peace of the world
by securing the possibility of perma
nent peace on this hemisphere.
During the past century other influ
ences have established the permanence
and independence of the smaller states
of Europe. Through the Monroe doc
trine we hope to be able to safeguard
like independence and secure like per
manence for the lesser among the netv
world nations.
This doctrine has nothing to do with
the commercial relations of any Amer
ican power save that it in truth allows
each of them to form such as it desires.
In other words, it is really a guarantee
of the commercial Independence of the
Americas. AVe do not ask under this
doctrine for any exclusive commercial
dealings with any other American
state. We do not guarantee any state
Our attitude in Cuba is a sufficient
guarantee of our own good faith. We
have not the slightest desire to secure
any territory at the exx?cuse of any of
pur neighbors.
The Navy.
The president devotes considerable
space to the navy, the upbuilding of
which, he says, should be steadily con
tinned. The navy offers us, it is declar
ed, the only means of insisting on the
Monroe doctrine, and a strong navy is
the best guarantee against war. lie
recommends that provision bo made
not only for more ships, blit for more
men. Four thousand additional sea
men and 1,000 additional marines
should be provided, as well as an in
crease in officers. After indorsing t!i'
naval militia forces the president says:
But in addition we should at once
provide for a national naval reserve,
organized and trained under the direr
tion of the navy department and sub
ject to the call of the chief executive
whenever war becomes imminent. It
should be a real auxiliary to the naval
seagoing peace establishment and offer
material to be drawn on at once for
manning our ships in time of war.
The Army.
It is not necessary to increase our
army beyond its present size at this
but it is necessary to keep it at
nWligliest point of efficiency. The in
dividual units who as officers and en
listed men compose this army are, we
have good reason to believe, at least as
efficient as those of any other army in
the entire world. It is out duty to see
that their training is of a kind to iu
sure the highest possible expression of
power to these units when acting ii.
combination.
The Merit System.
The president indorses the merit sys
tem of making appointments and says:
I recommend the passage of a law
which will extend the classified serv
ice to the District of Columbia or will
at least enable the president thus to ex
tend it. In my judgment all laws pro
viding for the temporary employment
of clerks should hereafter contain a
provision that they be selected under
the civil service law.
Cordial support from congress and
people is asked for the St. Louis expo
sition. The Charleston exposition 1.1
commended to the good will of thu
people. The work of the Pan-American
exposition is praised.
It is recommended that the consul
office as now constituted should be
made a permanent government bureau.
The Postal Service.
A tribute is paid to the postal
and the extensionoJ^
mcnt shoulube sustained, the president
says, in its efforts to remove the abuses
in connection with second class mail
matter.
Much attention is paid to the situa
r,, v ft in China, and the progress toward
. j|dt of peace there is re-
the ini
porßtice of our coutimmTSno advocate
modeAtion in the dealings with China.
The pnVdent concludes his message as
