Legislation of great Importance to the business world, tp railroads and labor organiza tions Is promised as the result of a se ries of conferences which have been held at the White Houae. These con ferences have had to do with the pro posed amendment to- the Sherman anti- rust law, which, in the opinion or many public men,. Including the president, railroad managers, and many labor laders, is too drastic In some places. Hence President Roosevelt, in line with his 'general policy of seeking con sultation with conflicting interests, has encouraged conferences on the subject and considerable progress has been made., and it Is probable a measure amending the anti-trust law will be In troduced in the house very soon by Chairman Hepburn of the committee on Interstate commerce. Some of the modifications to be urged are to permit proper consolidations of connecting railroads, to exempt labor organisations from classification as con spiracies In restraint of trade.

"I have now been using Grape-Nuts steadily four years and having passed i no experimental ana over-entn stage; I feel sure of myself and have settled down to a solid basis of fact.

Briefly reviewed, it Is jialent to all observers of the present political nit nation that the whole intention of tUo opponents of the primary law and Statement No. 1 is to evade recognition of the popular vote In June und throw the senatorial election back Into the legislature. .. . This intention Is painted In flaming colors by the Hodson-Beach-Balley ma chine combination In Multnomah coun ty where that- organization hopex to elect a solid block of 18 legislators pledged to vote for the "people's choice, provided he is a Republican." If Hie people's choice should he a Democrat this block of cotes would b.? unpledged to any candidate and could stand wlht other unpledged member to block any ratification of the popular vote. If the popular choice were a Demo crat, and that Is in the cards of the Multnomah opponents of Statement No. 1 for a certainty, then the Repub lican cnoice memoers would He up against a peculiar situation, provided FSilton was the nominee and stood by his pledge to stay out or tne legisla ture unless successful In June. If Cako beat Fulton the Republican choice men would still be. up against the same fame, for neither Fulton nor Cake, un er their pledges previously made, could go Into the legislature for elec tion unless successful In June. Anyway the shadow falls, therefore, under the plans of the machine leaders and forces, the senatorial battle Is planned to revert to the old time meth ods and the old time way.

I cnaractcr oi uic unacr-wunu since Raffles, and he operates in a higher plane. But in this week's issue of The Saturday Evening Post J. Rufus gets his. He joins the most extensive club in the world, "The Down and Out Club." The game looked good to start with. Meers, himself, told him, " You're an honor to the family. I didn't suppose there were many more games left, but you've sprung a new one, and it's a peach." But life turns vellow to T. Rufus, and even his wife has to admit that "upon thistles grow no roses." The story is called a " Fortune in Smoke." It makes a hit with us, and it will with you. Another story in this week's issue of The Saturday Evening Bost is The White Light of Publicity," by Charles Belmont Davis, in which the hero asserts that " Women do not commit sui cide," and toward the end, although he does not assert it, he seems on the point of committing matrimony. 850,000 people find it worth while to buy THE SATURDAY Evening Post each week.
