New York, Sept. 21. That the con test for control or the Saratoga Jle- publican convention is to bo sharp Is Indicated by late returns from the primaries nominating delegates. It probably will take the official count to decide whether Roosevelt or Vice President Sherman will control.

Griscom, chief lieu tenant for Roosevelt, claims the col onel will control the convention by at least 70 votes. The lastest esti mates made by politicians here close ly watching the contest, show that the regulars can count on 492 dele gates. It requires 508 to control. Roosevelt, according to this estimate, cannot count absolutely on more than 478 delegates. The real fight, It Is believed, will be in the resolution committee.

Courts may be imperfect and some undoubtedly are, but they aro instrumentalities of progress. There are somo lead ers who are Impatient at the slow progress of tho law.

PR ESIDENT TAFT T 06 R01LIN T He Says Not So Many Improvements Should Be Undertaken at Once, But That Money Enough Should Be Appropriated to Complete What Is Undertaken The Log-Rolling Systepi By Which One Congressman Holds Another Up to Compel a Trade in Votes Should Be Abolished and the Days of the "Pork Barrel" Numbered. ' Cinclnnattl, O., Sept. 21. Favor ing river and harbor Improvement but attacking tho "pork barrel" method of making appropriations for the work, President Taft today made tho principal address at tho opening of tho Ohio rlvor dam. He discussed the relativo speed of river boats and railroad trains and said he saw no reason why boat schedules could not bo as regular as tho schedules of trains. Tho piece-meal system of rlvor Im provement and appropriations ho considered inadequate. Ho said such a system encouraged other sec tions wllh unnecessary projects to demand appropriations. "Tho cost of the improvement of tho Ohio river," said the president, "will be upwards of $03,000,000. Tho plan Is to appropriate sufficient money nnnually to complete tho work within 12 years. I wish that congress had arranged to expend tho money on tho less time nnd com plete tho work moro quickly. Tho completion is not, alono important for Its immediate benefit commer cially, but Is also Important to vln dlcato dlscourago further invest ments of this kind In other direc tions. One great hindrance to tho success of tho Improvement of water ways has been tho dolay incident to tho completion of each project. As waterway Improvement should bo carried on in upwnrds of two-thIrd3 of tho congressional districts of the country, It can bo easily understood M Htl :: Our Exhibit Indian Robes From the State Fair are now on Sale at our Store for a few days previous to Shipping them Back to 'Pendleton.

Tho president then recited part of tho message sent when he threatened to veto the last rivers and harbors appropriation hill, saying, "the evil in corrupt control of congress or ot legislators by private interests Is manifest always and calls for con demnation. "But there Is another legislative abuse as dangerous, and that Is (ho selfish combination of representa tives ot tho majority to expend tho money of the government for tho tomporary benefit of a Pnrt ot l10 pooplo with llttlo benefit to tho wholo.
