run crjxon daily jcunnAL. xohtland, Tuesday evening, -decei.iber 6.. ioio.- President Tafs Me:ane to Sixty-First Congress' (Continued From Page Fourteen.) which is admirably adapted to meet the exigences which would b then pre sented. The passage of the bill would not entail a dollar's expense upon the government at this time, or In Uia fu ture, until war cotiirs, but wh war does como the methods therein directed are In accordance with tha best mili tary. Judgment as to what they oujht to be., and tho act would prevent the neces sity. for tho discussion or new legisla tion and tho delays incident to Its con federation and adoption. I , earnestly urge the passaga of this volunteer bilL Ask tot Commission.; "I further recommend that congress establish a commission to determine, early' as practicable, a comprehensive policy for the organisation, mobiliza tion and administration of the regular army, the organized militia and the volunteer forces in the vent of war. "I have directed that the (estimates for appropriation for the Improvement of coast defenses in the United States, should ba reduced to a minimum, while those for the completion of the needed fortinc&ttona at Corrcgldof In the Phil ippines and at Pearl Harbor In th .Ha waiian Island, should bo expedited as much es possible, JCne pacific naval base has bearr tratiferred1 t6 Pearl Har bor In the Hawallanlslands. . "This necessitate the heavy fortlfi-J cations of tha harbor and the establish' ment of an Important military station ' near Honolulu. I urge that all the esti mates made by the war department for these purpose be approved biToongres elonal appropriations.'' The president refers to the prosperity and rrowing trade Of the PhillrmineS and Porto Rico, especially recommending thel (peedy enactment of pending measures Pure Dich Blood Woodard, Clarke. & Co, Sell a - Prescription Jhat 7.1 eans - : Vigor, Vim, Vitality , Because MI-O-NA causes the blood to get better and more nourishment it Is at aH times a valuable Ionic It puts vigor Into the muscles, clears tip the Improp erly nourished brain and makes strong nerves' that will stand the severest test i Men .who feel that their vitality is flipping away; that the vim and energy that they formerly put Into -all their work )s lacking: that ambitions Impulses and 'clever Ideas do not com as they used o are the kind of men that need MT-O-NA. - . . 1 : -.i-tr.: r Beside being; a peerless remedy tot Indigestion MI-O-NA Is a most pro. nounced tonic .

V ' Panama Cas&l, "At the instance ,of Colonel GeHhals, the army engineer,, officer In chartta of wojjj on the Panama canal, I have just made a vifit to the isthmus to In spect the work dona and ' to consult with him pn the question of certain problems which are likely to arise in the near future. The progress of the work la moat satisfactory. If no un expected obstacle presents Itself, the canal will be completed well within the time fixed by congres; to wit, January 1, 191B, and within the estimated coat of $375,000,000. ; , "Among questions arising for present solution is tha dclson. whether the ca nal elian! fortified. I have already stated? to the congress that I -strongly favor fortification and I now reiterate this opinion and ask your consideration of the subject in, the light of the report already before you, made by a com petent board, . t ...J "It, in your discretion, we believe modern fortifications to be necessary to the adequate protection and policing oft-theOanal, then It is-our duty to con struct them. :,; We have built the canaL It is bur property. - It Is ! also well known that -one of the chief objects In th construction of the canal has been to increase the military effectiveness of our navy, Failure to fortify the (canal would - leave us in the possesslo'n of rights we would be powerless to en force. " "In determining what the tolls should be, we certainly ought not to Insist that, for a good many years to come, they should amount to enough to pay the interest on tne investment, of $400, 000,000 which - th -United State has made In the construction of the canal. The benefit to b derived by the United States from this expenditure Is not to be measured eolelv'by a return upon tha investment Will Cheapen Sates. " "In addition to the benefit to our naval strength, the canal greatly in creases the trade facilities of the Urflt ed States. It will undoubtedly cheapen the rates , of transportation In . all freight between the eastern and western seaboard and 'It will greatly . Increase that trade byreaeonj of the reduction In-Its costs. - ,-..,...,, -. . "In all these eaee the question, wheth er the Panama canaKis to he used and it? tonnage Increased will be determined mainly by tne charge for It use.' My own Impression 1 that the toll ought hot. to exceed 11 per net ton, On the whole, t should recommend that, Within certain limits, the president be author ised to fix the tolls of the canal and. to adjust them to what he believes to be a commercial necessity. ; ' '"The preldent4recommenda that, . Aw ing to the importance of Hb canal to the United Etatwf .navy, the government should take over the furnishing not only to the navy hut to the publie of drydock and repair 'ship-faeillUea and the sale of coal, oil ahd otter shlp'a supplies." Ha adds;. 1 cannot close this reference t4 the-f anal without aoggestlng asa wise amendment, to the interatate com mere law a provision prohibiting Inter state commerce railroads from owning or controlling ships engaged in the trad through the Panama- cftnftl. I believe such a provision may be needed to .save the people of the United States the bene fits of the competition In trade between tho eastern and western seaboards. , , . v Department of Justioa, J . '' ''Tho dotic of the department of Jus tice have been greatly increased by leg islation of wigrs. I am glad to say that Under the appropriations made for the department, the-attorney general has to improved Its organization that a vast amount of legation of a civil and crim inal character ha been dlBposed of dur ing the current year, "In . a special message last year I brought to the attention of congress the propriety and Wisdom of enacting a gen eral law providing for "the incorporation of industrial and other companies en gaged In Interstate commerce, and I re nev my reeommondatlon in that behalf. The president then discusses the need of cheapening the cost of litigation" by etmplif ylng judicial procedure and ex pediting final judgment recommending the bills framed by the department He also renews the recommendation made In his last annual message of a law regulating th Issuing of injunctions In equity without notice in accordance With the best practice now in vogue. t Pottoffloe Department, i ' Discussing postal savings banks, the president says:. "Arrangements have been perfected so that savings banks will be opened In some Cities 'and towns on tho first of January, and there will be a gradual extension of the benefits of the plan to the rest of the country. ."The postmaster general has been able to make his estimate of expenses for the present year eo low as to keep with in the amount the postal service Is ex pected to earn. . - ' "Upon ; the recommendation of the postmaster general, I have Included In the classified service all assistant post masters. I think It woold be wise to put In the classified service the first, second and third class postmasters, " "In my last ajnoal message I Invited the attention of congress to the iri&decfua cr of the postal rato Imposed upon second class mail matter Insofar a that ' ln eludes magazines, and showed by fig urea prepared bT expert Of the pontof fice department that the government was rendering a servlee to the magaalne costing many mllilona in excess of the compensation paid. . Ah answer was at tempted to this by the representatives of tho trja-gazines.-l agree that tho ques tion, la one of fact but t insist that If the fact Is as the, experts of the post office department show that we are fur nishing to the owners of magazines m service worth- millions more than they pay for than justice requires, .rv r "With . respect to the parcels poet I recommend ha adoption on all rural de livery; routes, and that Jl pounds, the international llmlt-s-be made the limit of carriage In such post. ZTaval Department ,, , Of the nava) program the president saysl v:v!;:;-,i...;?Ii:.:':: ;;s; 'The estimate of the navy depart ment are 5,000,000 less than the appro priations for the earns purpose last year, and included In this is the build log program it the same amount is that submitted for your consideration last year,. It is merely rarrying eot the plan of bunding two battleships a year with a , few needed auxiliaries, I earnestly hop that this profcram- will be adopted." The pvoe'oent "recommends that the ecretary of the !rvy b authorized to make the' neeessary expenditure to ere ate at Guanfunamo a naval station of sufficient glee to serve a. an emergency naval base. . The president . calls ' attention to Peary's discovery of the north, pole and adds:..:", .; - : "X .recommend fitting recognltlon4by congreea of. the great achievement of nobert Edwin Peary." t ' ConterYatlon. s - Discussing conservation the president sees no need for radical reform' m the methods of disposing of what are really agricultural lands, adding: "In September laet, a conservation congress was held in St Paul at which I delivered an address on the subject of conservation, so far as it was with in tha Jurisdiction and possible action of the federal government . . "I recomemnded: That the limita tion now imposed upon the executive which forbids his reserving more for est lands in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Colorado and . Wyoming, be repealed. : "That the coal deposits of the gov ernment be leased after advertisement In inviting competitive bids, for terms not exceeding 60 years, with conditions s to maintenance which will prevent combinations to monopolize centrot of the coal in any one district or mar ket. . ' , A . .. "That water power aites be directly leased by the federal government after advertisement and bidding, for pot ex ceeding SO years, upon a proper rental and with a condition fixing rates charged to the public for units of elec tric power, with suitable provisions against assignment to prevent monopo lies. "X earnestly request congress that at this session, -general conservation legislation of the character Indicated be adopted. With reference to Alaska the presi dent still opposes self-government 0 t the ground that the Inhabitants are few in number and migratory in character. He is opposed to government aid in the construction of Alaskan railroads. The passage of a law permitting the leas ing of government control of lands in Alaska after public competition, and the appointment of a commission for the government of the territory with enabling powers to meet the local needs will lead to an Improvement in Alaska and'Jhe development of her resources, the president says. , ; Railroads and Antl-Trast laws. "For the protection of our own peo ple and the preservation of ouf credit in foreign trade,.! urge upon congress the immediate enactment of a law under which on who in good faith ad vances money or Credit on a bill of lad ing issued by a common carrier upon an interstate or foreign shipment can hold the carrier liable for the value of the good described In th bill at the valuation specified in the bill, 7-.-C: "I further recommend that a punish ment of fin and imprisonment be im posed upon railroad agent ang ship pers for fraud In mlsrepreeentation In connection with the issue of bills of lading issued upon "interstate and for eign shipments. . . "Except " as above, I do not recom mend any amendment to tha Interstate commerce commission law, as It stands. I do not now recommend any amendment to the anti-trust law. In other words, It seems to me that the existing legisla tion With . reference to the regulation of corporations and the 'restraint of their business, has reached a, point where we can stop for a while and wit ness' th effect of the vigorous execu tion of the laws" on -the statute books in restraining the abuses which certala ly did exist and which roused the pub lio to demand reform. with arsen. !!, is aocn--1 r fire to the h'it.M at l,orii i , ago. lie is sal -4 to bate !
