Sad to re late, It seems very likely that the Taft legislative program, with its radical recommendations for corpor ation control, is likely to meet a sharp and troublesome snag beforo 1t reaches tho statute books of the nation. The Taft program as outlined in the president's speeches is about as radical a proposition as the legis lators of these United States havo tackled in some time particularly that proposition for amending the Interstate commerce act to secure closer federal control of the rail roads. Tho radical portions of the president's program will meet trou ble where most radical portions of the president's program will meet trouble where most radical propo sitions aro lost, strayed, or stolen in tho senate. It is whispered about Washington just now that the reason for the omission of so many of the Taft propositions from tho annual mes sage to congress was tho inability of the executive to line up that au sust body in favor of the proposed measures. Murmurs aro also heard that Mr. Taft is now doing his frantic best to whip tho worthy leg islators into lino for his pet pro jects and, be it understood, is not meeting with unqualified success. -Regulars and insurgents alike aro coming in for tho executive admon ition's, and Democrats are not en tirely disregarded. But there is one man who has leen conspicuous, by his absence from tho White house, in this con nection. That Is the quiet, hard working, currency reforming, tariff tamers Why Not Consider This Offer Now?

While the president is endeavor ing to organize a working majority In congress in support of his meas ures, Nelson W. is quite generally understood to be working among his colleagues in favor of a do-nothing session. And Nelson is some worker. It has been mentioned, perhaps by prejudiced persons, that tho unqualified endorsement, in the Taft annual message, of Senator Al drich's pet aversion, the postal sav ings bank measure, may account for that statesman's anti-administration activity. Nelson W. is a superb organizer, and it is expected that he "will bo able to gather together real opposi tion to the Taft measures, if he so desires. That would cause no end of trouble to the administration, and might force the president into an agreement with tho progressive Re publicans and the Democrats who are almost unanimously in favor, of the proposed corporation control measures. Tho Department of Agriculture is doing a little muck-raking of its own on tho quiet up at the port of Now York, with tho- object of un covoring the cussedness in Smyrna figs. A corps of experts has been sent by the department to make extended microscopic and bacteriological In vestigation of fig cargoes entering that port. Secretary Wilson has kept a wea ther eye on this business for some time, assisted by tho State Depart ment. Tho latter has directed the American consul at Smyrna to in vestigate packing conditions in tho A Genuine Edison Phonograph Outfit Sent Without Cost to You on lO Days' Free Trial give ten days to try an Edison, Brush nttachyW' EILBRa Bdiaon Freo Trial OKer.

No shipments without this certificate of approval aro permitted to enter this country, but desplto tho vigilance of tho consul, recont tests, according to an export of tho Department of Agrlculturo, show that as high as 20 per cent of somo of tho passed cargoes were wormy aud unfit for consumption. It is said that the packors in Smyrna havo claimed that tho j worms aro a necessary evil arising from tho process of caprlflcation Also that tho worms appear during transportation and are caused by the unsanitary conditions aboard ship. It is pointed out that moro trouble develops in the layer figs, wh'ch. aro securely boxed. More over, worms appear insido tho fruit, so that It seems probable that they were present, though in small quan tities, when tho figs left Smyrna and naturally increased enroute. Tho consul at Smyrna has recom mended the rejection of tho cheap er "natural packed" class of figs wh'ch aro tho remnants of packing houses and with which littlo caro is taken, the fruit being cast looso Into boxes or baskets. Greatcare is being taken at Now York to keep out all uncleanly figs and after the findings of tho experts have been considered it is probable steps will bo taken looking toward tho improvement of conditions in Smyrna.
