PRESIDENT WOULD PROVIDE FOR PUBLIC INVESTIGATION BEFORE CALLING STRIKE (Continued from Page 1.) an Increase of freight rates to meat such additional expenditures by the railroads as may have been rendered necessary by the adoption of the eight hour day and which have not been offset By administrative read justments.

Buiuutuy io draft into the military service of the "u" iiaiva uen train crews and administrative officials as the clr cumstances require for their safe and efficient use. The second and third ommendatlons rfhe congress immedi ately acted on; It established the eight-hour day as the legal basis of work and wages in train service and It authorized the appointment of a commission to observe and report up on the practical results, deeming these the measures most immediately needed; but It Dostnnno.i .i - -- i-nwn upon he other suggestions until an oppor. ,.uu.u oe onered for a more deliberate consideration of them. The fourth recommendation I do not deem t necessary to renew. The power o( the Interstate commerce commission to grant an increase of rates on tho ground referred to Is Indisputably clear and a recommendation by the congress with regard to such a mat. er might seem o draw in question the scope of the emission's author fty or Its Inclination to do Justice when there is no reason to doubt either.

" "e uiirease in the Interstate nmn.... , , c. v i-uramis- sons membership and in Its faclll t es for performing Its manifold du- me provision for full public In. destination and Mm.. trial disputes, and the grant to the executive of the power to control and operate the railway when necessary Il-t'm1! of war r other lfke PWI t ow very earnestly new. The neoessitv for .nnh is manifest and pressing. Those who nurw us wtth the responsi bility and duty of serving and safe guard.ng them in such matters would find lt hard, i believe, to excuse a failure to act upon these grave mas ter., or any unnecessary postponement of action upon them. Not only does the Interstate com meroe commission now find it prac tically impossible, with Its present membership and organisation, to per form its great functions promptly and thoroughly but it is not unlikely that It may presently be found ad visable to add to Its duties still oth ers equally heavy and exacting. It must first be perfected as an admin istrative instrument. The country cannot and chrmM consent to remain any longer exposed to proround Industrial disturbances for lack of additional means of ar bitration and conciliation which the congress can easily and promptly sup ply. And all will agree that there must be no doubt as to the power of CATTLE PORTLAND, Dec. 5 Considering the enormous receipts, the market for hogs showed but little change. A total of 5030 head of hogs appear ed aside from the show stuff. The markM in general was considered a dime lower with tops at $9.75 for prime heavy und $9.5o9.bu ior prime iight.

Market for sheep and lambs con tinues very firm. The general mar ket here is considered 25 60c high er, although sales on this basis were made during the latter pant of Inst week. There was only a nominal showing of sheep and lambs on the market for the week's opening and the trade Is nominal at the best. al though demand Is rood. General mutton ana lamo maricei: Select spring mutton and Iamb mar ket: : i the executive to make immediate and uninterrupted use of the rail roads for the concentration of the military forces of the nation wher ever they are needed and whenever they are needed. This is a program of regulation, prevention and administrative effi ciency which argues its own case in the mere statement of it. with re gard to one of its items, 4he iacrease in the efficiency of the interstate commerce commission, the bouse of representatives has already acted; its action needs only the concurrence f the senate. I would hesitate to recommend, and I dare say the cdngress would hesi tate to act upon the suggestion should I make it, that any man in any occu pation should be obliged by law to continue in an employment when he desired to leave. To pass a law which forbade or prevented the indi vidual workman to leave his work before receiving the approval of so ciety In doing s0 would be to adopt a new principle into onr jurispru dence which I take it for granted we are not prepared to introduce. But the proposal that the operation ot the railways of the country shall not be stopped or interrupted by the con certed action of organized bodies of men until a public investigation shall have been instated which shall make the whole question at issue plain for the judgment of the opin ion of the nation Is not to propose any such principle. It Is based upon the very different principle that the concerted action of powerful bodies of men shall not be permitted to stop the industrial processes of the nation, at any rate bt'fore the nation shall have had an opportunity to ac quaint itself with the merits of tho case as between employe and em ployer, time to form its opinion up on an impartial statement of the merits, and opportunity to consider all practicable means of conciliation or arbitration. I can see nothing in that proposition but the justifiable safeguarding by society of the neces sary processes of Its very life. There Is nothing arbitrary or unjust in it unless it be arbitrarily and unjustly done. It can and should be done with a full and scrupulous regard for the Interests and liberties of all con cerned as well as for the permanent interests of society itself. Three maters of capital import ance await the action of the senate which have already been acted upon by the house of representatives: The bill which seeks to extend greater freedom of combination to those en gaged in promoting the foreign com merce of the country than Is now thought by some to be legal under the terms of the laws against monop oly; the bill amending the present organic law of Porto Rico; and the bill proposing a more thorough anl systematic regulation of the expendi. ture of money in elections, commonly called the Corrupt Practices Act I need not labor my advice that these measures be enacted Into law. Their urgency lies in ithe manifest circum stances which render their adoption at this time not only opportune but ; necessary. Even delay would seri ously jeopard the Interests of the country and of the government. Immediate passage of the bill to regulate the expenditure of money in elections may seem to be less ne cessary than the Immediate enact ment of the other measures to which I refer; because at least two years will elapse before another election In which federal offices are to be filled but it would greatly relieve the puW Hc mind If this Important matter were dealt with while the circumstances and the dangers to the public morals IS VERY GOOD Select spring Iambs $9.009.Ii Ordinary lambs ". 8.75 g) 8. 95 Best yearlings .'. 8.00 8.50 Good to common wethers 7.25 7.50 Best ewes 6.607.00 Heavy to common ewes.. 4.004.55 CLASSIFIED DIRECTORY , ... i IXSritAXCE AXD LAXD BfPIXESS ATTORNEYS.

We have not th hnm. sary Instrumentalities for Its prosecu tion: tt is deemed in h ri,.. c,; whether they could be created upon an adequate scale under our present laws, we should clear away all le. gal obstacles and create a basis of undoubted law for it which will give freedom without permitting unregu lated license. The thing must be done now, because the opportunity Is here and may escape us if we hesitate or ielay. The argument for the proposed amendments of the organic law of Porto Rico is brief and conclusive. The present laws governing the island and regulating the rights and privil eges of its people are not just. Wo have created expectations of extend ed privilege which we have not satis fied. There Is uneasiness among the people of the island ajl even a sus picious doubt with regard to our in tentions concerning them which the adoption of the pending measure would happily remove. We do not deubt what we wish to do In anv es sential particular. We ought to do It at once. There are oth advanced to the stage of conference ueiween tne two houses of which It is not necessary that.

GeHhe HabiUf Drinking Hot Water Before Breakfast says we cant look er feel right wnn in system run of poison. , Millions of folks bathe internal! now instead of loading their system wtth drugs. "What's an inside bath?" you say. Well, lt is guaran teed to perform miracles if you ceuldt believe these hot water enthusiasts. There are vast numbers of me a and women who, immediately upon arising in the morning, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoon ful of limestone phosphate in it This is a very excellent health measu ure. It is Intended to flush the stomach, liver, kidneys and the thir ty feet of intestines of the previous day's waste, sour bile and indiges tible material left over in the body which if not eliminated every day. become food for the millions of bac teria which infest the bowels, the quick result is poisons and toxlrvt which are ithen absorbed Into tho blood, causing headache, bilious at-, tacks, foul breath, bad taste, coldv stomach trouble, kidney misery, sleeplessness, impure blood and all: sorts of ailments. People who feel good one e,iy anij badly the next, but who simply can . not get feeling right are urged to ob tain a quarter pound of limestone-, phosphate at the drug store. This . will cost very little but is sufficient to make anyone a real frank on tha . subject of internal sanitation. Just as soap and hot water act on. the akin, cleansing, sweetening and freshening, so limestone phosphate and hot water aqt on the stomaelw. liver, kidneys and bowels. It is vast ly more important to bathe on the In side than on the outside, because thai skin pores do not absorb impurities, into the blood, while the bowel pores do.
