TAFT PROPOSES
LONG PROGRAM
Important Points In Policy of New
ve-AdmlRistratlon.
Tariff Revisian Come Firit-Large
Number of Measures to Govern
Trusts Reform Injunction Law
Extensive Improvements to Rivers,
Beginr.hg With Ohio.
Hot" Spring, Va . Dec. 5. The
World is able to present here the
principal legislative program of the
Taft administration;
Tariff revision is the primary rea
son for the extra session that will bo
called immediately after March 4
Mutt, but the next President sccs n,)
reason why, during that extra session,
the Sherman anti-trnst liw should not
be so amended that railroads may
make rate agreements under the strict
supervision of the interstate com
merce commission. It is not likely
that more subjects than the tariff and
an amendment to the Sherman act
will be named by Mr. Taft in calling
the extra session, though he may de
cide later to mention aM of the prin
cipal laws that he hopes to see en
acted. These are:
1. Tutting a limitation on the issu
ance of interstate bonds and stocks.
-. Authorizing railroad to make
rate agreements which otherwise
would he in violation of the anti trust
law, subject to the approval of the
interstate commerce commission.
3. Defining particular cases in which
temporary restraining orders may is
sue without notice, and prescribing
proceedings limiting their operation
to the very shortest diy.
4. Such Amendments to the law or
ganizing the bureau of corporations
as shall require certain large corpor
ations doing an interstate business to
submit to the scrutiny and examina
tion of agents of t lie federal govern
ment. 5. Reorganizing the department of
justice, the interstate commerce com
mission and the department of com
merce and labor in respect to the jur
isdiction exercised by them over in
terstate corporations, both railroads
iind others. It is Mr. Taft's idea that
the three departments should work
harmoniously, so that no one shall in
going over ground covered by another
and so that there shall be no conflict
of authority. Ultimately cases han
dled hy these departments must now
go to the courts, but it is Mr. Taft's
idea that a large nutnluT of cases can
be disposed of finally and equitably
by the departments under the right
sort of law.
fl. Reform in the monetary and
banking systems of the country. This
is recognized as one of the great
problems nclore the new administra
tion, but it is not expected that it
will be taken up at the extra session.
7. Conservation of the natural re
sources of the country, including the
Appalachian bill. The oucstion of the
constitutional power of the federal
government' in this matter is not yet
clear, it can be said that Mr. Taft is
in sympathy with the end to be ac
complished, but that he will recom
mend no legislation until he is satis
fied as to the exact length to
the federal government can go.
H. Improvement of rivers and har
bors. The new administration is com
mitted to an energetic policy of im
provement, particularly of inland
waterways. The Ohio river nine-foot
channel from Pittsburg to Cairo is to
tlie front at present. It will cost $H,
ooo.ooo, and the next president favors
ine issuance ot nomls to push the
work.

"I have been troubled with catarrh

tried many cures for it, but obtained
very little help.
"Then my brother advised me to try
Peruna, and I did.
"My health was very poor at the
time I began taking Peruna. My
throat was very sore and I hud a bad
couph.
"Peruna has cured me. The chronic
catarrh is gone and my health is very
much improved."
I recommend Peruna to all my
frienda who are troubled as I was."

Lame Back Prescription.
The increased use of w hiskey for
lame back rheumatism is causing con
aiderable discussion among the medical
fraternity. It is an almost infallible
cure when mixed with certain other in
gredients and taken properly. The fol
lowing formula is effective: "To one
half pint of good whiskey add one
ounce of Toris Compound and one ounce
Syrup Sarsaparilla Compound. Take
in tablespoonful doses before each meal
and before retiring."
Toris compound is a product of the
laboratories of the Clobe Pharmaceuti
cal Co., Chicago, but it as well as the
other ingredients can be had from any
ood druggist.

Prosecution In Ruef Trial Trying to
Prove Bribery.
San Francisco, Dec. 4 In the Rucf
bribery trial yesterday the prosecution
endeavored to show by the testimony
of Adam Dahler, acting treasurer of
the United Railroads, that the $-(0,-i)i))
drawn by Tircy 1.. Ford from the
mint was never turned over to the
company. Mr. Dahler said that he re
tained all the gold coming in and de
posited all currency and checks. He
said that after the graft iniiiry h id
begun in lliurt, (leorge F. Starr, the
company's treasurer, went east with
a number of vouchers and books to
be expertcd.
(leorge W'lcutt, secretary of the
United Railroads, testified regarding
the books in bis charge. The pro
posed introduction of a letter which
Wilcutt said he had at his office, and
which is supposed to contain some
reference to the S'.'oo.ooo drawn by
Ford, led to a wordy clash between
attorneys. 1
William M. Abbott, assistant coun
sel for the United Railways, was
called, but on advice of his counsel
refused to testify on the ground that
lie was under indictment in connection
with the trolley franchise matter.
Judge I.awlor overruled the objec

drove the rioters from street to street
and finally into seclusion. Twelve
persons were killed and many wound

So serious did the situation become
that a committee of public safety,
composed of the most prominent mili

of citens were placed under arms to
assist the loyal troops in patrolling
