The message advocates amendment o f the Sherman anti-trust law in order that good trusts may be permitted and bad ones more effectively punished. He urges the need.of thorough government superviaoa o f all agencies o f inter-state commerce. The president urges legislation to better safeguard the wage earner and strongly champions the postal savings bank system. He says some plain things about the state and federal jndges who show inability or unwilling ness to punish very rich men, and criticise« both the courts and the peo ple at large for the present difficulty in punishing murderers and corrupt public officials. He advocates protec tion o f the forests and the improve ment o f inland waterways and takes a whack at congress for recent legisla tion hampering the secret service which, he says, was done to prevent that service from investigating the conduct and records o f congressmen. He advocates the admission o f Arizona and New Mexico as states and urges a largely increased navy. at Central Point, in the State o f Ore gon. at the clot# of business, November 27, 1908. RESOURCES.
