Tomorrow's republi can state convention, which will he called to order her at 10 o'clock, will doubtless go off without a hitch. All the machinery la well oiled and ap parently in the best working order. Governor Deneen, Senator Hopkins and Cullom and Mayor Buase of Chi cago have been decided on as the on to be honored as delegatea at large, and there la not likely to be much op position to this program. The con vention will be composed of 1582 del egates. Many of these arrived in Springfield today. Friends of Secretary Taft. while ad mitting that Cannon men will con trol tomorrow's convention, declare that a great many of the delegates from congressional districts will swing to Taft if the Cannon boom la punc tured In the national convention. The peculiar situation which exists In th gubernatorlal campaign hns aldel Cannon. The Cannon delegates must be se lected before the middle of April, while the delegates who will nominate a governor will not be selected untl: August. If the Cannon forces are de feated In their object of getting th state delegation In the national con ventlon,' and decided to hold the De een men responsible, they can punl. ', Deneen In the August primaries. Ti.. Deneen men. therefore, are alnvjMi compelled to "deliver the goods" to Cannon in advance.

"Child labor should be prohibited throughout the nation. At least, a model child labor bill should be passed for the District of Columbia. "I renew my recommendation for legislation on the question of the em ployers' liability and again call your attention to the urgent need of amending th Interstate commerce law, especially the anti-trust law. alogn lines Indicated In my last mes sage. . "The interstate commerce , law should be amended to give railroads the right to make tariff agreements subject' to approval by the Interstate commerce .commission. The commls sion should be given power to make public and pass upon the 'issuance of all security hereafter Issued by rail roads doing an Interstate commerce business. . In the modern Industrial world, combination are absolutely necessary. It is mischievous and un wholesome to keep upon the statute books until modified, laws like the any-trust law which, while in prac -Ice, is only partially effective against the vicious combinations, has. never ineiess, in tne ordinary, been con strued to prohibit every combination In the transaction of modern bust ness." Following his recommendations in relation to the child labor law, and the amendment of the Interstate com merce law, giving roads the right to make tariff agreements subject to the approval of the Interstate commerce commission, the president took up the subject of labor organizations and present laws. He said It was uncer tain Just how far the unions conflict ed with the anti-trust law. He urged that legislation be enacted In order to conform with recent supreme court decisions. . "No temporary restraining order should be granted by the court with out due notice," he sald. "It Is Im portant that agreements between em ployer and employees should be Just and fair. A strike is a clumsy weap on In adjusting wrongs done to la bor. Tut strikes should be recognized as entirely legal. The right of em ployers to combine and contract with each other and the employee should be recognized. Nothing should be done to legalize the blacklist or boy cott that would be illegal under the common law. We have the right to expect financial legislation , before the coise of the session. Action should be taken to establish postal savings hanks. Our forests need every protec tion. Wood pulp should be put oh the free list. The waterways com mission should be made permanent. S The sheriffs office is making prep aratlon to make another large turn over of tax money to County Treasur er Frawley. By the iftit of the week when the funds will be turned Into the county coffers, the amount of fund" on hand in the sheriff! r.fi'ice will be tbout 160.000. This, with other turn- ivers that have been ma.,- this spring will bring the total flcurei to some thing like $ 160.000, that liHve nov. been collected. Since the 16th of this month no re bntes have been Issued, but for all that the money keeps pllln? up In th" collecting department.

Judging from past records and from the confidence noticeable among the players of the visiting Enterprise team, the batten- from the sheeprais Ing country Is something out of the ordinary, and the home players will have to do some exceptional stick work If they keep up with the pro cession. The general Impression is that the visitors place much of their chances of winning on the work of their pitcher and catcher. Funeral Today.
